Komaneka at Monkey Forest

Located bang in the center of Ubud amidst lush paddy fields, we felt right at home. The welcome was great, the staff ever so cordial and always warm. The ambience instills calmness, there is greenery everywhere you turn that yo forget that you just entered from a bustling street, it is well shielded from the noise yet a stones throw away from all the major ubud attractions. The rooms were generous, a beautiful view of the paddy fields where we could spot some munias trying to pick at the grains and a great balcony with our very own koi pond which excited my kid to no end. In addition, the staff had provided a crib for my child as well, no complaints there at all. The pool was well-maintained, surroundings calm again. We had opted for breakfast in the hotel and that's the only thing that was disappointing. They had hardly any options for vegetarians or vegans. It was just 2 or 3, nothing that could fill you up sufficiently for the adventure ahead. This is tedious especially when you're staying for more than two days. We ate the same thing every morning which was either fruit bowl or fried rice, even the bread had eggs so we couldn't have the avo toast which otherwise could have been a good option for vegetarians (which doesn't include egg) or vegans. I'm surprised, considering that Ubud is steeped in Veganism they had very few options for us. This is something they need to look into and become more inclusive in their menu, especially with breakfasts since most opt for it. This is a great place to stay in if you want to be at walkable distance from the monkey forest, ubud palace, the market, some great restos etc., and if you are able to deal with the brekkie concern.

Gracious kind hospitality, super clean, a quiet spot among Ubud’s chaos. We stayed four nights, huge patio with a view over the area. There were monkeys who entertained us near the pool. Pool was lovely, with comfortable lounge chairs, easy food and beverage service. Tea service was gratis every day@4:00pm, appetizers were included. Room had clean beautiful marble floors, good A/C, and soft sheets!

We recently stayed at the Komaneka Monkey Forest in Ubud, Bali, and we cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, Ade, the Front Office Manager, and her exceptional reception team provided 5-star service. They were always friendly, helpful, and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The location was perfect, close to the main road, markets and Palace. Despite its great location, we heard no traffic noise at all. Special thanks to Mang and the restaurant staff for their outstanding hospitality. The food was absolutely delicious, with so many choices that we were spoiled for options. Portions were generous—almost too much for two people—but every bite was worth it! The resort itself is breathtaking, with stunning grounds that feel like a tropical paradise. We stayed in a villa with a private splash pool, and it was simply amazing. The villa was spacious, impeccably clean, and filled with high-quality amenities. The splash pool area, with its serene jungle backdrop, was the perfect spot for relaxation. The lush greenery and peaceful atmosphere were like something out of a dream. Komaneka Monkey Forest is truly a slice of heaven. We’re already looking forward to our next visit! A huge terima kasih sekali to all the staff for making our vacation so memorable. We highly recommend this resort to anyone visiting Ubud—you won’t regret it! Until next time, Komaneka! 🌿💛

The service at this resort is wonderful! Everyone here is welcoming, genuine - it truly feels like home when they welcome you after a long day of exploring. And location of this resort for getting out and about to know Ubud is great. Attention to detail is spot-on. The spa services are delightful! Food is excellent. There's nothing not to love about this resort. I'd stay here again if in Ubud.

Our plane landed at 0030 and Dani was there to pick us up for our 1.5 hour drive to the resort. He was awake, happy and chatted with us about the area. When we arrived at the resort you would have thought it was the middle of the day. They brought us tea and cookies as they checked us in. Our bags were taken to our rooms and then we were lead to the room. The staff was fantastic the whole time we were there. Ade and staff ensured our every desire was met. We decided to do some things at the last minute and Ade ensured we had a competent, friendly and knowledgeable driver/guide to take us out. The food was wonderful, the Spa was beyond anything I would have asked for. I did a number of services and the staff ensured we were treated like queens. Cannot say enough good about the resort and the staff. A definite place for relaxation and close to many things.
