An overview
Bhanuswari Resort & Spa is just a 10-minute drive from Ubud, the cultural capital of Bali. Located in the southern foothills of Bali, the property is surrounded by water. The concept for Bhanuswari Resort & Spa goes far beyond traditional hotels. The owner's dream was to create a boutique resort that would provide jobs in his village. Many of the young people were training for the hotel and restaurant business. The resort was designed by Balinese architects and constructed by a combination of Balinese and Javanese craftsmen. Over 85% of the staff reside only 5-10 minutes away in Tengkulak village. All staff members, including management, are Balinese. The landscaping takes full advantage of the natural beauty of the site. Flowering trees and banana plants were already growing along a spring-fed stream, and coconut trees lined the rice fields. Additional tropical plants and flowers were purchased from local sources and transplanted. An on-site organic garden provides many of the vegetables and fruits.

Very good”
Beautiful resort and rooms if you are looking to be surrounded by nature. Staff were friendly. Restaurant a bit pricy. Free transportation to Ubud Centre - takes about 15 mins. Something to take note of - make sure you speak to the manager to confirm prices for transportation. I spoke to a staff and was quoted half the price for a one way trip to Kuta. However, manager insisted that I heard it incorrectly and his staff would not have said that. So basically his word against mine. That was the only downside to my stay.

A Room in the rice fields with a garden, pool, frogs sculptures and House Temple at my door”
I enjoyed my stay at Bhanuswari in Sukawati nearby Ubud, where I came to attend the Ubud Writers and Readers Festival. Each day, I went to the Festival by Hotel Shuttle transport and returned to this quiet oasis by night where I could enjoy the pool and abundant nature and breakfast among the rice fields. BTW, the breakfast and other meals at Bhanuswari are delicious and also healthy, with a choice of cuisines available. Unfortunately, I had little spare time and was unable to try any of the other Resort and Spa activities on offer like Yoga Classes, massage and beauty treatment and bicycle riding through the surrounding countryside. Instead, I enjoyed a lovely time without the bustle of a city or large town. This meant I could concentrate on the Festival itself, and also meet the creatures inhabiting the grounds, like the Biawak sunning itself besides the Templle, myriads of local butterflies and noisy today's. I also got to practice my rusty Bh. Indonesia with the friendly staff.

The resort is a bit old but for the price offered I found it more than satisfactory. It is not particularly close to Ubud however free shuttles are provided which was handy.

very nice resort”
we got a deql staying at the deluxe room right in front of a small pool. very nice staff that explains everything after the welcome drink. rooms were nice, clean and the pool was nice (they have 2). the complex is well taken care off and they clean the rooms every day. breakfast was good with a lot of choices and scenery is just amazing (nice pools, palms and rice fields). we had some ants by the room and they cleaned everything after we pointed out the problem. probably the best thing is that even though it is quite far from the center it has free shuttle service on request that can pick you up whenever you call them! very friendly staff and drivers! the only downside of the location is that some of the tourist agencies need extra money to pick you up from there(not in our case) but you could always go to the center to a pick up point!

A nice sanctuary close to Ubud”
We stayed for four nights in this cozy resort. What we really appreciated is that's a little bit outside and therefore very quiet and at the same time close enough to Ubud's centre to enjoy no more than 10 minutes bike's ride along rice fields, temples and the amazing and unique architecture's of this place. Thank you very much to all very kind component of the staff.

This was one of our favourite accommodations in Bali due to the lovely spacious grounds, excellent and comfortable room, green surroundings, lovely outside bathroom with bath. It's a few km outside Ubud with free shuttles available which we enjoyed, providing a restful sanctuary from Ubud's bustle. Friendly staff do encourage you to take up the hotel provided tours but we preferred to rent a scooter to be more independent. Close to Tegenungan Waterfall and Goa Gajah.

A piece of paradise”
consistently warm,friendly service, delicious food and amazing location for nature lovers
We come to Bhanuswari annually to conduct a yoga retreat. The location is perfect with rice fields and nature surrounding the resort and beautifully maintained gardens and pool areas. The yoga spaces have views which support relaxation. The food at the restaurant is delicious and excellent value...we particularly like the wide range of choices in the Balinese menu although they have something for all tastes. There is a shuttle service into Ubud which allows for some shopping and sight seeing. Staff are delightful...friendly and attentive and come from the local area which supports people in the village to stay in their own community. We like to support this approach. We are already planning our next retreat.

Atmosphere Galore”
The surrounding nature, helpful staff, spacious room
Bhanuswari is a very good place to stay to get away from the hustle and bustle of Ubud. I loved the surrounding views of jungle and rice paddies. The premises are welll-kept and the pool is a nice touch. The only complaints I would have are the wifi isn't very accessible from some of the rooms. And the location, while beautiful is quite a ways from Ubud, not even very accessible by bicyle, altough possible. The shuttle service provided was very useful, but I ended up waiting an hour for pickup. Another thing is to join tours to the nearby areas it might be easier to stay closer to town, for transport pick-up etc. The resort has very diligent drivers but I doubt any of them could say too much about the history, art, etc of the areas. As a solo travelor I would like to have seen more opportunities to join small group excursions. All in all Bhanuswari is a pretty great place to stay.

Free shuttle to town, tranquil setting, room overlooking the garden & pool
Stay was great, we paid extra for the airport collection which went smoothly. We had booked a deluxe room which was lovely, with doors opening to the pool and garden on 2 sides. Hotel staff helped us to make some other bookings and organised multiple free shuttles for us back and forth to town. We had 2 good massages at the hotels spa. And the pool was lovely. The restaurant also has a beautiful outlook, fine food and friendly staff.
We would happily recommend this to anyone looking for a peaceful stay in Ubud.

I booked the night before I was due to arrive, the airport pickup was seamless, the hotel spa offered affordable services, the food at the restaurant is basic but good quality (many European options if you go to Bali to eat pizza etc!), the staff are all friendly and attentive, gorgeous setting with lost of activities and tours available from the hotel. Definitely recommend it to others and would return in a heartbeat.
