The Westin Resort & Spa Ubud, Bali

Overlooking the lush jungle valley in Ubud, The Westin Resort & Spa Ubud, Bali is the perfect destination for families looking for a brief getaway from the city. With its modern contemporary design, the property embraces nature at every turn, from the open-air lobby to the three decks and the gorgeous infinity pool that looks out on the Wos River Valley.

There’s a choice of generously proportioned rooms, suites, or villas, each designed with calming interiors and floor-to-ceiling windows to let in plenty of natural light. If you’re travelling with young children, connecting rooms are available on request. Guest facilities focus on wellness and relaxation for the whole family, including the Westin Workout fitness studio and Heavenly Spa by Westin. The al fresco spa gazebos, which are surrounded by an ever-changing canvas of tropical flowers and fragrant herbs, are a real highlight of the property.

Open from 9am until 7pm, Westin Family Kids Club is dedicated to keeping the little ones amused, offering a holistic range of activities that include yoga, craft workshops, face painting and gardening. Meanwhile, The Westin Ubud Farm is allowing families to enjoy outdoor activities together, such as harvesting organic farm produce, feeding livestock and kite decorating.

Also on-site are two distinctive dining concepts, both of which follow the brand’s Eat Well philosophy. Tabia all-day dining offers health-conscious fare made from scratch with regionally sourced ingredients, while Tall Trees serves up an eclectic menu of wood-fired dishes inspired by ancient recipes from around the world.
