We stayed a week for our 25th anniversary. Perfect for that occasion. It would be inappropriate with children, infirm or elderly - stone stairs to anywhere, lots of quiet, mostly honeymooners. The staff made an effort to learn our names/circumstances and seemed sincerely invested in our good stay. Shout out to Mira. All day long, the cooked-to-order western and eastern food was amazing (the best/cheapest filet mignon you will find), and we especially enjoyed the included luxurious afternoon tea time 330-430. Our room with private pool felt extremely romantic. We partook of the expert spa massages, mani-pedi and facials. The dance or singing shows every evening added to the romance. Note it is geographically close to downtown Ubud for the shopping, temples, restaurants and chaos, but it is a harrowing and slow 20-30 minute ride that significantly messed with our peace from the place. We only went once. The rice terrace walk was not challenging but is along a road that is a bit too close to traffic. The morning yoga was a mix of stretching and meditation, inadequate if you are a serious yogi. We did our own yoga on the beautiful yoga platform. Kayon Resort was the perfect place to unwind, retreat and recharge. We joked that it felt like the garden of Eden before the fall. One of a kind experience!!!
