Reviews of Ananda JJ Ubud Resort & Spa

Friendly and attentive staff. The bed was surprisingly comfortable. Overall excellent value for money.

There were some stains on the sheets. The linen and towels were old and worn out. Local construction noise during the day made it difficult to relax.

Light airy room, nice Balcony and view of the pool. Friendly staff.

It was noisy, road works, construction work, dogs barking, passing traffic. Then there is the cacophony of frogs etc... at night. My room overlooked the road so not a great location. It is probably OK down the back of the property. Noisy teenagers in the pool in the afternoons dive bombing and shouting. The "Restaurant" overlooks the road too so that was noisy and dusty from the road works. I was disappointed as I had wanted a quiet country stay and I didn't get that. The aerial photo is deceiving. Although remote from shops and facilities, the Hotel is on quite a busy road. The TV never worked in my room and I did get a discount for that. WiFi was patchy. Staff don't speak much English so difficult to communicate. The bathroom is quite basic. Cold standing shower or hot hand held shower over bath. Pebbles on the floor. Not really that clean. Blinds in bathroom need replacing, all broken and not working.

Cute rooms, vegetation all around, nearby some waterfalls and rice terraces.

A bit far from some things.

The breakfast at this property was sensational!! Just outside of Ubud lovely and quite needed after a busy few days in the city :) staff were so so lovely too!

Wonderful view, quite position, good breakfast

Nothing

Very clean

Location is far from city centre, some of staff can't speak English, it was hard to communicate

So beautiful outside of the busy bustle of Ubud. Petulu Village is small and calm and you can tell all the people that live there look out for each other. The staff here are exceptional, Cook a lovely meal, are amazing to chat to, and will go beyond to make sure you have a brilliant stay. Room is stunning and you get your own kettle, fridge and beautifully decorated bathroom. Yes there are bugs and if you have a room with a bath then the shower is only cold water but you just have a bath or have a cold shower after your swim in their gorgeous pool. But you’ve come to Bali for the experience and this place gives it to you. Only 15 by bike south into Ubud town. 15 mins by bike north to Tegallang rice terraces. Good central location for big day trips and to chill out.

Charmingly rustic property with great amenities. I loved having a tub with lots of hot water. I enjoyed just sitting and overlooking the rice fields.

Because the rooms were wooden it could Be quite noisy, but it wasn’t terribly obtrusive as most guests were considerate

Great location slightly north of central Ubud which is very hectic. Very comfortable bed and lovely veranda to sit on overlooking a gorgeous pool. Helpful staff who booked us a sunrise tour to Mt Batur. We ate all our meals at Labak Sari Warung which is the best restaurant for ambience and food that we’ve eaten at in Bali and it’s in walking distance of the JJ Ananda hotel.

We had an upstairs room and it was very noisy as we could hear the people below us who were laughing loudly at 5.30am and using the TV in the evening. I’d recommend booking a single story unit, also because the staircase to our room was steep and rickety. The room was lovely abut the bathroom was a bit scruffy.

-The location away from the busy city was perfect ! -quick to get a taxi from the “grab” app -massages at spa were amazing

Need a little more food /options for breakfast

Lovely stay! Such a beautiful location tucked away from the busy streets of ubud and still very near everything! Great pool and probably the most comfortable bed ever!

Slight issues with check in as we arrived very early due to delayed flight - but we got in eventually :)

Lovely cottages in Ubud, slightly out of the centre which meant it was away from lot of traffic. Breakfast was on point. They had the loveliest kittens staying there who were beautiful and friendly. Helped with scooter hire with was cheaper than others in town.

Pool didn't look like it was cleaned regularly so we didn't have a dip.

Friendly staff

The rooms were so loud, if you are looking for a relaxing place to stay maybe it’s not the best option since I was even able to hear my neighbors sneezing. Unfortunately the room was full of bugs and geckos since it was in a rice field so it’s fine there was not much to do. But the location is a bir middle of nowhere. There is almost nothing around. For a short stay (2nights) it’s a good option

Staff was very helpful and professional.

I wanted to stay away from the busy part of Ubud, but close enough to take about 10 minutes on a motorbike taxi to get into the centre when I needed to. The location was perfect. It was quiet and relaxing. The room was traditional style and the buildings were rustic and charming.

The breakfast choices were very basic. Everything else about the hotel was as I expected.
