About

Black Penny Villas Ubud - Ubud (Bali)

Black Penny Villas Ubud sits on the Kedewatan ridge, above the Ayung River, and within a 10-minute drive of Jalan Hanoman. The adults-only property offers a choice of deluxe villas, each with a private pool, an outdoor terrace, and a bathroom with a bathtub. Rooms blend wood interiors with thatched roofs, and the sound of the river rapids below becomes the soundtrack to a stay here.

The hotel supports active days as much as lazy ones. Canoeing, cycling, and hiking are all available, and the staff can arrange car hire and tours. The on-site restaurant serves breakfast in the dining room or delivered to your villa, and the bar area and spa centre cover the rest of the day. With a 9.1 guest rating from 78 reviews, this is a property that regularly exceeds expectations.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Private pool villas — Every room category includes a private pool, and most add a balcony or terrace. Several guests singled out the plunge pool and the infinity-style edge as the highlight of their stay.
  • Valley and river views — The property sits above the Ayung River, and the sound of the rapids is a constant backdrop. Guests consistently mention the jungle valley views from the villas and the infinity pool.
  • Breakfast, your way — Breakfast can be taken in the restaurant, on your terrace, or delivered to your room. Multiple guests called it delicious and praised the presentation.
  • Attentive, helpful staff — The team regularly goes beyond standard service — from clear orientation to arranging transport and even a birthday surprise. Staff is the highest-rated category at 9.6.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Adults-only policy — Children are not allowed, so this is not an option for families travelling with kids. The property also does not accept pets.
  • Location requires planning — Though near the Ayung River and a 10-minute drive to Jalan Hanoman, the villas are in a somewhat secluded spot. Guests noted that having transport arranged or renting a car is helpful.
  • Check-in window limited — Check-in is only possible between 14:00 and 23:59, so if you arrive late (after midnight), you'll need to make other arrangements for the first night.
  • One room type adds a sofa bed — The Deluxe Villa Private Pool comes with a king bed and a sofa bed, which could work for two adults who want extra space, but it's not a separate bedroom.

“The constant rush of the rapids and the greenery made it perfect for relaxing. Loved the private terrace and plunge pool. The jungle and river views were wonderful, and the restaurant food was tasty.”

9.1Verified guest

“A hidden spot among the hills with views of the valley and river from my room that were just captivating. The staff explained everything clearly and couldn't do enough. The private pool was a real luxury, the bed was extremely comfortable, and the bathroom was a treat with a deep bath. There was even a surprise turn-down with flowers and towel art. The location worked well, with plenty to do nearby.”

9.1Verified guest

“For Christmas we got a beautiful, spacious villa. The staff were generally friendly and helpful throughout our four nights. Having breakfast either in the restaurant or in the villa was a nice choice, and the food was decent — a good start before exploring Bali.”

04 — Location

Getting around Ubud

The property sits in Ubud.

Kedewatan: The villas sit on Jl. Raya Kedewatan, a quiet road above the river with a few cafés and warungs within walking distance. It's more residential and peaceful than central Ubud.

Jalan Hanoman: About a 10-minute drive away, this lively street is packed with restaurants, boutique shops, and yoga studios. The hotel can arrange transport or you can hire a car.

Ayung River: The river runs directly below the property. You can hear the rapids from your villa, and rafting tours often start along this stretch of the valley.
