Das Eigentum — Sankara Resorts
Sankara Resorts sits just off Jalan Monkey Forest, a modest three-star with a clean, modern Balinese look — think dark wood furnishings, open-air lobby and a small infinity pool overlooking the jungle fringe. It’s the sort of place where you drop your bags, grab a freshly pressed juice, and walk straight into Ubud’s main strip in under five minutes. Best for independent travellers or couples who want a no-frills base with decent wifi and a decent breakfast, not a resort holiday. Standing in the lobby, you smell frangipani and hear the distant clatter of scooters — Ubud is right there.
Chroniken von Ubud
Ubud began as a cluster of hamlets centred on the Pura Desa Ubud temple, gaining royal status in the early 19th century when the Sukawati dynasty moved their court here. Coffee and spice plantations drew European traders, but the real shift came in the 1930s when artists like Walter Spies and Rudolf Bonnet settled here, sparking a Western fascination with Balinese painting and dance. After the 2002 Bali bombings, Ubud reinvented itself as a wellness and yoga hub, attracting a wave of cafés, co-working spaces and boutique hotels. Today it’s a dense, chaotic, charming town where Hindu temples sit next to organic bakeries and rice terraces start right where the pavement ends.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Ubud-Guide →Die besten Monate
April and October sit in the dry season’s sweet spot — blue skies, low humidity and far quieter than July or August. May is also excellent, with Ubud’s Writers & Readers Festival (usually late May) adding cultural buzz without peak crowds.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August are absolute peak: school holidays across Australia and Europe, plus the Bali Arts Festival (June–July) in Denpasar draws day-trippers. Hotel prices in Ubud typically jump 30–50% above shoulder rates. Expect gridlock on Monkey Forest Road by late morning.
Budget Schulter Saison
February and March are the cheapest months for Ubud — still part of the wet season, but rain usually falls in short, heavy bursts, leaving clear mornings. Discounts at Sankara Resorts often drop 20% compared to August, and you’ll have the pool almost to yourself.
Wetter & Verpackung
Even in July, Ubud’s elevation (about 600m) means it cools noticeably at night — you’ll need a light jumper or pashmina after sunset. Pack a compact rainproof shell: tropical downpours can still occur even in the dry season, usually in the late afternoon.
Live City Briefing veröffentlicht — Ubud
- The new Ubud bypass road (Jalan Raya Sanggingan–Kedewatan) has partially opened, offering a quicker route to Tegallalang rice terraces and cutting traffic in central Ubud by about 20% — useful if you’re hiring a scooter.
- The Ubud Monkey Forest has introduced timed entry slots (08:00–17:30) to manage crowds; book online at least 24 hours ahead, as same-day tickets often sell out by 10am during July.
- A wave of zero-waste cafés, including Sari Organik’s new composting initiative near Campuhan Ridge, has made recycling and plastic-free options more common — bring a reusable bottle as many now have free filtered water refill stations.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Sankara Resorts, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the upper floor (second or third level) facing the inner courtyard or garden. These rooms are set back from the road, so you get less street noise and better airflow, plus a bit of privacy from the public walkways.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms, especially those overlooking the parking area or the main entrance. They get the most foot traffic, engine noise from arriving vehicles, and less natural light.
Best views
Rooms facing the inner courtyard or garden offer a green outlook typical of Ubud – rice paddies or tropical planting. If the building's orientation is on a main road, a side-facing room with jungle or paddy views is ideal.
Quietest floors
Second and third floors are quieter. The building only goes up a couple of storeys, so the top floor (third) should be the calmest.
🔊 Noise notes
Ubud's main roads (like Jalan Raya Ubud) have scooter traffic from dawn until late evening. Sankara Resorts is close enough to hear that rumble, especially on the street-facing side. The hotel might also have a small bar or restaurant with evening music audible from nearby rooms.
Insider tips
1. Check in early to secure a garden-view upper-floor room; these are the first to go. 2. Ask for a room away from the breakfast area – that's where staff noise and clattering dishes start around 7am.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top-Attraktionen in Ubud
💡 Haggle firmly but politely – start at 30% of the asking price. Go at 8am before the tour buses arrive. Avoid the stuff sold near the palace, it's mass-produced.
💡 Pop in for 15 minutes between 9am and 5pm when the lotus flowers are open. No sarong needed – they lend them at the entrance for free.
💡 Start from the north end near the Ibah Hotel for a quieter stretch. The walk is about 2km round trip but you can extend onto dirt trails if you want more.
💡 Leave your sunglasses and loose items in your bag. Monkeys will snatch them. Go after 4pm when it's quieter and the light is softer for photos.
💡 Skip the busy main path – take the steep stairs down to the left of the waterfall for a quieter spot to swim. Go early on a weekday to avoid crowds. Bring swimsuit and towel.
