Bottom Line
Aria Villas Ubud is a contemporary upscale property consisting of only eight villas next to a small river valley just a 15-minute walk from the center of Ubud. Each stand-alone villa is done in a sleek blend of rustic and urban-chic minimalism, and all have private pools and nice outdoor spaces. Meals, including a free breakfast, are delivered to villas, and perks include free afternoon fresh-fruit popsicles plus free short welcome massages. There are no public spaces here, so travelers who like to interact with other guests may want to look elsewhere. For those who don't mind being a bit farther from the center of town, Wapa di Ume has lovely rooms with terraces and way more on-site features at lower rates.

Sharp eight-villa property that's best for travelers who like to be on their own
Designed by Singaporean architect Chioh-Hui Goh, this hotel is one of the more chic villa stays in the four-pearl category, though there are very few features on offer. The property consists of eight individual villas with minimalist rustic-modern style throughout. An abundance of recycled wood is used in the details, and everything is intended to blend into the lush jungle setting -- for example, the flat roofs are covered in vines. There's not much in the way of public spaces here, but there is a small lobby with a table and stools and a cushioned bench. Overall, this is a quiet, peaceful place that's especially appealing to honeymooners and couples seeking privacy. Families and groups of friends also come here to make use of the multi-bedroom villas.
Location
Quiet valley location a 15-minute walk from center of Ubud
The hotel is located just off a small, well-maintained road in a small river valley near central Ubud. The property is easy to access, and most taxi drivers will have no trouble finding it. It is a quiet area that's a 15-minute walk from the center of Ubud and the town's restaurants, shops, bars, and galleries. Sights like Ubud Palace and the Museum Puri Lukisan -- which exhibits modern traditional Balinese arts in a lovely, tranquil setting -- are both in the center of town. It's a bit farther to other sights, and a cab ride is likely in order to reach destinations like the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, which is 10 minutes away by car. Ngurah Rai International Airport is a little over an hour's drive away, just outside of Kuta.

Features
All meals delivered to villas, free shuttle to town, free use of bikes, free passes to fitness center
Despite this hotel's four-pearl status, there are very few features on offer here, which may be disappointing given the nightly rates. All meals are delivered to guest villas, including a free cooked-to-order breakfast. The kitchen's focus is on the use of fresh, local ingredients. A free frozen fruit treat is served each afternoon. Guests who prefer not to walk into town can take the free shuttle or they can use the hotel's bicycles for free. Although there is no fitness center on-site, guests get free passes to the Ubud Fitness Center which is just down the road, and in-room massages can also be booked. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property.
