Location

Villa Kubu is located in the heart of Seminyak, Bali’s vibrant district that is a labyrinth of eclectic restaurants, fashion boutiques, antique and lifestyle stores. Just a short walk away are some of Bali’s most popular beaches, home to the hippest nightclubs and bars, and where the sunsets are legendary. Yet beneath its veneer Seminyak is still essentially a Balinese village where daily life revolves around the endless cycle of religious ceremonies and timeless rituals. Tucked down a quiet gang (lane), Villa Kubu is a sanctuary well removed from this frenzied pace, enabling guests to relax in a realm of serenity and natural beauty.
