About
Mandapa, A Ritz-Carlton Reserve
Mandapa, A Ritz-Carlton Reserve sits on the banks of the Ayung River in Ubud's Kedewatan district, surrounded by working rice fields and tropical gardens. The 5-star resort is built around a traditional Balinese village concept, with thatched-roof villas, open-air pavilions, and a central pool that appears to spill into the jungle. Guests check in from 15:00 and can park on site.
The accommodation ranges from one-bedroom suites to three-bedroom pool villas, each with a balcony or terrace, air conditioning, a bathtub, and a coffee machine. The private-pool villas add a garden view and a personal pool. Dining options include a restaurant, a poolside snack bar, and an outdoor area with BBQ facilities, plus in-room breakfast if you prefer. The spa offers a sauna, steam room, and a full menu of massages and body treatments, while a fitness centre, yoga classes, and a kids club cover the rest of the day.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if you travel with an animal.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only possible between 15:00 and 23:59. If your flight arrives later, you'll need to plan ahead.
- Price point is premium — While guest scores for value are strong (9.8), the nightly rate starts at £2 per night, which places this firmly in the luxury bracket.
- Some reviews rate it only average — A couple of guest scores were 6 and 8 out of 10, suggesting that the experience, while generally excellent, may not wow everyone.
