Nandini Jungle by Hanging Gardens

LikedAbsolutely wonderful experience. This is our second stay here. First visited 13 years ago. If anything it's even better now. Truly magical waking to the sounds of the jungle. We didn't want to leave.

DislikedNothing.

LikedBeautiful rooms and very nice spa and pool. Location in the middle of the jungle was great. The staff was great.

DislikedI was there for 3 days. The electricity went off once and there was no water in the room for a few hours.

LikedThe rooms were very clean and the view is simply magical! The villas have their own charm between coziness and classiness. I would recommend the numbers in the 60s and 70s, as they provide the best view. The staff go above and beyond to make your stay as pleasant as possible, greeting you with a refreshing welcome drink and a big smile when you arrive at the reception and always provide help whenever you need it.

DislikedThe meals in the restaurant were extremely small and very pricey (think Singapore restaurant prices; Nasi Goreng is about $SG14 for example), which would be the equivalent of fine dining in SG if you compare to Indonesian restaurant prices in town. The location is quite remote, so there is also almost no chance to get something from outside as it takes around 35-40 minutes to reach Ubud by car. Especially annoying around dinner when having to go to bed with an half empty stomach.
