Soekasada Ujung Park

Tejaprana was a small oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Ubud. The property was beautiful and really provided a sense of calmness and serenity. I enjoyed the fact that there were a limited number of villas, so you never felt like things were crowded or too many people. The staff were excellent and cared for all your needs, all while remembering your name every time they saw you. Those small customer service offerings make a huge difference and really what I have come to expect when traveling in south east Asia. The only negative thing I can say is that there were a large number of gecko's and large black ants (that bite). I ended up with a gecko guest in my room half way through my visit and had the ants all over my patio/pool area which made it less enjoyable to relax out there. However I will say that when I mentioned this to the front desk, they very quickly dispatched someone to come spray the patio area using multiple treatments. Overall, that was a small inconvenience compared to how much I enjoyed the other elements of my stay. After all, it is a tropical/jungle area so our little insect creatures are to be expected. This was a solo trip for me and I absolutely can not wait to return to Bali.

Villa was beautiful and it was great to have a large pool as well as the private villa pool. The view of the rice field as you come in to the resort is breathtaking. The restaurant was disappointing as the food wasn’t up to the standard of the hotel which was a shame. The hotel is quite isolated which is lovely for peace and quiet but the shuttle isn’t very frequent which makes getting around a pain. Would be great if they increased the number of shuttles a day or did it on a bookable basis as many of the other hotels seem to do. The trips they are offer are quite expensive so would recommend looking on Trip Advisor for those instead. Also everything seems to be priced in US dollars.

Clean, quiet, private and with modern amenities. Komang and team were extremely helpful. We liked that it was outside of Ubud town, but yet near and easy enough to get there.
