8 best hotels with a pool in Ubud

Hotels with a pool in Ubud are a smart way to base yourself in Bali’s most romantic inland valley town, where you can pair temple-and-market wanderings with downtime in the sun. For iconic sights, many visitors aim for the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary in Padangtegal, or plan photo stops around the stepped landscapes of Tegalalang Rice Terraces. If you want the cultural buzz close to hand, staying near the central stretch of Jalan Raya Ubud keeps you within easy reach of the art, dining and shopping scene.

A genuinely pool-ready hotel in Ubud should offer more than a token splash: think a proper swimming setup for regular laps, comfortable sun areas for slower afternoons, and a setting that suits the climate and humidity—often with garden views or valley perspectives. This makes them especially appealing for couples on a romantic reset, families who need reliable downtime, and remote workers who want a quieter rhythm without giving up convenient access.

In this area, the best “where to stay” choices usually fall into two lifestyles: walk-friendly central Ubud for evenings around Jalan Raya, or a calmer riverside/rice-field pocket for privacy and views—ideal for guests booking longer stays at properties such as Korurua Dijiwa Ubud, Natya Resort Ubud, and Bidadari Private Villas and Retreat.
