Activities & Sightseeing

The Campuhan Ridge is our favourite walk in Ubud. There are a few hills, but it’s an easy walk with lovely views of rice fields and down into a valley. There’s not much shade, so it’s best early morning or towards sunset.

Kubu in Indonesian language means Hut or Shelter, where Balinese farmers keep the rice after harvesting habitually. This tradition inspired Mandapa in designing its signature bamboo restaurant. A tropical breeze and the soothing sound of water set the mood at Kubu which offers an intimate space with 9 private cocoons overlooking the Ayung river for you to enjoy fine Mediterranean-European cuisine in the option of A-la-carte or degustation menus.
