Jendela di Bali is a unique private villa in the foothills near Ubud that delivers you from the tourist throng and offers you a window onto an ancient culture.
Stay at Jendela di Bali you are staying in the heart of Bali and are perfectly placed to discover Bali's heart.
Surrounded by rice paddies and sacred villages, you are close to Ubud for dining and entertainment but far enough away to immerse yourself in traditional Balinese culture. This is a special place for those who love artistry, value authenticity and seek serenity with style.
Jendela di Bali suits those who seek a window onto a living, evolving culture. You are not isolated from real life nor are you wedged within a tourist hotspot. You are close to Ubud's dining, art and culture, real coffee and fine dining when you want it, but far enough away to escape. The sounds you will hear are of authentic village life: the sacred, the industrious, the ebb and flow from sunrise to sunset. Nothing you will see or hear is put on for tourists. It is all genuine.

RELIGIOUS CEREMONIES & YOUR STAY - Almost every day on Bali there are religious ceremonies. These can be temple events, weddings, cremations, tooth filing ceremonies, full moon rituals and many more. Some of these are at night and involve music and chanting. Jendela di Bali is located at the top of a sacred, high caste village and during your stay you will almost certainly hear these events. Only very occasionally these will occur late into the night but they are a possibility so we warn guests so you can be aware. Some are suitable for guests to ask to attend and others are sacred, holy and thus not suitable to attend. Please ask the staff for advice on attending local ceremonies and be guided by them. We provide the suitable temple/ceremony clothing required to be worn for guests to use – ask the staff for assistance.
