An authentic Balinese escape in the heart of the jungle
We spent four nights here as a family of four and from the moment we arrived, it felt like stepping into another world. Perched high above the Ayung River and wrapped in dense jungle the Royal Pita Maha offers an immediate calm and seclusion that is in such contrast to the hustle and bustle of the Ubud streets. Walking through the grounds each morning was an experience in itself - serene, quiet, filled with nature.
Our private pool villa gave us plenty of space, and it was brilliant for the kids being able to swim on their own. And the views! Waking to that vista in the morning really sets you up for the day.
The staff are great – always friendly, attentive and welcoming without ever being intrusive. And all of them were fantastic with the kids.
Breakfast overlooking the valley was a lovely way to start the day, and the hotel’s location made it an excellent base for exploring Ubud before returning to the tranquillity of the resort each afternoon.
The resort isn’t modern in the contemporary luxury sense, but that’s very much part of its appeal. Some areas are like stepping back into Bali’s prime Hindu history, and everything is beautifully maintained and full of authentic Balinese character.
If you’re looking for a polished international hotel this probably isn’t it - the rooms would be described as characterful rather than modern, and are a little worn around the edges but it lends to the charm. However if you want a peaceful, character-filled retreat that captures the spirit of Ubud, the Royal Pita Maha is a very special place.

Beautiful scenic and grand hotel nestled into a tropical river and jungle
Myself and my wife spent three beautiful nights here, the staff where friendly throughout our stay and the deluxe room with private pool was just perfect, we had a floating breakfast and just enjoyed the quiet ambiance of the river flowing and insects and birds making noises, we had a few intruders being two geckos and a frog but when in a tropical Forrest and river it’s expected. Thank you royal pita maha for our little slice of luxury and being so welcoming to myself and my wife 🙏❤️

Magical experience at The Royal Pita Maha
This hotel resort is truly just amazing, from the view from your room or restaurant to how the staff are. Everyone is so lovely, welcoming, friendly and always eager to help! We had no disappointments at all and I was humble that the restaurant team went out of their way with any requests that we had. The shuttle bus to and from the town centre was also a big bonus rather than trying to find a taxi to get us to and from. We also experienced a Balinese cooking class with a few of the chefs in the organic farm which was just an amazing experience and we ended up with the recipes that I will be definitely trying to make again. I will definitely come back here and bring more of my friends as it was so magical here and I don’t want to leave!

Holiday bliss at The Royal Pita Maha
This was my first overseas trip and the staff here made sure it was an experience I will never forget! They are so kind and accommodating, and they genuinely care about your comfort and needs. The variety of food is next level with multiple restaurants and the quality is perfection. Our room was so clean and comfortable with all the creature comforts you need. The resort grounds are spectacular with so many paths to explore, there's a stunning waterfall and you can watch the white water rafters along the river from the organic restaurant at the bottom of the resort. I recommend doing the cooking class, it was so informative and fun, you get to eat the food you make and receive the recipes and a fresh apron to take home. There's a shuttle bus service 3 times a day to the main centre and back so you don't need to worry about transport! If you are looking for somewhere to stay that provides relaxation, cleanliness, friendly staff, variety of food and spectacular views then this is the place for you!
