Capella Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

Hidden deep within the rainforest north of Ubud, Capella Ubud is an otherworldly tented retreat suspended above a river valley of palms and bamboo. 

With just 23 one-bedroom tents, each richly detailed and entirely private, the experience feels intimate, theatrical, and deeply connected to the jungle that surrounds it.

It’s a place where adventure and elegance meet — barefoot luxury reimagined as a dreamlike camp in the treetops.

What Makes It Special

• 23 handcrafted tented villas, each with its own private saltwater pool and terrace.
• Immersive jungle setting, perched above the Wos River valley.
• Design inspired by early explorers, blending colonial romance with Balinese artistry.
• Auriga Spa, set within the forest, focused on lunar-inspired wellness rituals.
• Culinary experiences rooted in Indonesian flavors and open-fire cooking.
• A rare sense of seclusion where nature, not architecture, leads the experience.

A Day at Capella Ubud

Morning

Wake to birdsong and mist rising through the trees. Breakfast arrives slowly — tropical fruit, warm dishes, fresh coffee — enjoyed on your terrace as the jungle stirs below.

Afternoon

Drift between your private pool, guided nature walks, and the spa hidden among the trees. Time feels elastic here, shaped by light and sound rather than schedule.

Evening

As dusk settles, lanterns glow softly throughout the camp. Dinner is atmospheric and intimate, followed by quiet moments beneath a canopy of stars and leaves.

Night

Your tent becomes a cocoon — canvas walls, antique details, and the low murmur of the forest carrying you into sleep.
