Set deep within the dense, terraced rainforests of Keliki valley near Ubud, Capella Ubud is an architectural masterpiece that transports guests back to the adventurous spirit of early 19th-century European explorers. Designed by renowned architect Bill Bensley, this ultra-luxury tented camp was constructed without cutting down a single tree, preserving the pristine natural surroundings and seamlessly blending high-end design with the wild jungle landscape.

The property features twenty-two individual one-bedroom tents and a two-bedroom lodge, all hidden amidst towering trees and overlooking the sacred Wos River below. Each tented sanctuary is uniquely styled with custom antiques, hand-carved local furniture, rich fabrics, and vintage camping artifacts. Modern comforts abound, including private salt-water plunge pools, outdoor showers, and expansive teak decks where guests can listen to the soothing sounds of the jungle canopy. Personal camp captains are on hand around the clock to curate customized daily itineraries for every visitor.

Wellness and culinary offerings reflect the rich heritage of the island. Guests can enjoy farm-to-table dining at Mads Lange, savor open-fire cooking at Api Jiwa, or gather around the nightly campfire to listen to local storytellers under the stars. The camp spa offers holistic remedies based on traditional Balinese healing rituals, while daily activities include jungle trekking, yoga sessions, and traditional crafts workshops.

Beyond the campsite, guests can visit neighboring artist villages, participate in sacred water purification ceremonies at local temples, or ride bicycles through scenic rice terraces before returning to their private jungle haven. Capella Ubud offers an unforgettable experience for travelers seeking deep relaxation, culture, and natural beauty.

Step into a nostalgic realm of jungle adventure and refined luxury in the spiritual heart of Bali.
