Purana Boutique Resort

My wife and I recently stayed at Purana Boutique Resort for a few nights, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Bali. We booked the one-bedroom villa with a private pool, and it was incredibly tranquil and private, the perfect blend of luxury and serenity. After spending time exploring, it felt amazing to return to our own peaceful oasis. The on-site restaurant was absolutely delicious. We found ourselves eating most of our meals there because the food was so consistently good. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Another major highlight was the complimentary shuttle to and from Ubud center. It allowed us to fully experience Ubud while staying somewhere peaceful and slightly removed from the busy center, which ended up being the perfect balance. We also appreciated that there were additional experiences available right through the resort, like cooking classes, spa treatments, and curated local tours. We didn’t have time to try everything, but it was great knowing those options were easily accessible if we wanted to add more to our stay. What truly made this place special, though, was the staff. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcomed. Each time we returned to the resort, we were greeted warmly with smiles and kindness. What stood out most was how the team wore many hats. The same friendly faces who helped us at the front desk would also serve our meals or drive us into town. It made the experience feel personal and authentic, and we loved building real connections with them throughout our stay. Yannik was an incredible guide during our half-day tour. He took us to see the rice paddies, a beautiful waterfall, led us through a meaningful water purification journey, brought us to stunning temples, and arranged a visit to a coffee plantation. His insight, knowledge, and generous hospitality made the entire experience unforgettable and deeply special. Noviana picked us up from the airport late at night and brought us safely to the resort, and later drove us to Sanur for our next accommodation. He was professional, kind, and made the transitions during our trip completely seamless. Agust and Tude were consistently outstanding. They helped us at the front desk, brought our meals, answered all of our questions, and handled everything with genuine warmth and a smile. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble. Choosing Purana Boutique Resort was hands down the best decision we could have made for our stay in Ubud. We only wish we had spent more time there.

A wonderful place. I booked the hotel for four days along with a yoga retreat. The staff was excellent, addressing me by name, asking how I was doing and if I needed anything else, welcoming and smiling. The yoga was individualized and very high-quality. Special thanks to the temple guide, Yannick, a wonderful conversationalist. He explained everything, showed me around, took me to the retreat, and prayed with me. Then there was a tea and coffee ceremony with a mini-tour of the plantations, a gorgeous view, and delicious drinks. The hotel is clean, new, and the room is spacious. The only downsides were the weak internet and the construction outside the window. The restaurant was 10 out of 10; all the dishes were delicious and prepared quickly.

Choose this place without hesitation, absolutely! The staff are incredibly attentive, especially the driver, Ketut, who is excellent. You don't need to make plans; he takes you around. While others might only take you to symbolic places, Ketut takes you to local sights you won't see anywhere else, explaining things patiently until you understand. He'll suddenly stop and say, "Let me take your picture in this rice field," and he'll take your photos like a professional photographer, without getting bored. He's so friendly, jokes around, and makes you feel like he's been your friend for ten years. He always keeps water and towels in the car for you. Thank you, Ketut. Thank you, Epa Thank you, Purana family.
