Take a look inside Villa Lepak by the River

Welcome to Villa Lepak by the river.

In Singlish, the term "Lepak" is commonly used to describe a laid-back and leisurely approach to life or work.

A dream home experience for animal and nature lovers only.

The villa is situated in a local village environment. Set against an expansive backdrop of a lush tropical rainforest by a river, Villa Lepak offers a secluded sanctuary in Ubud away from the hustle and bustle of city life. We recommend a longer stay to unwind and appreciate the unique calmness of this space.

This enchanting 3-bedroom villa is your ideal gateway to get immersed nature, where you can find the best sleep to the gentle sounds of the flowing river, wake up in the early mornings to the melodic songs of exotic birds, observe the resident cats chase the chickens and you might even get a visit from the friendly village dogs while being embraced by the vibrant greenery that defines Bali's stunning landscape.

This open living space is west facing and perfect for watching sunset on the deck with a drink in your hand, with family and friends and watching how the skies turn from a hue of colors into a night full of stars.

Everything has been wonderful — the breakfasts have been delicious, and Jero has been incredibly helpful. His recommendations have been excellent, and he has driven us around, which has made everything very comfortable for us. The villa itself is beautiful and very comfortable as well.

ow...this Villa is STUNNING with beautiful bedrooms, comfortable beds, nice living area and the pool is perfect too! It is well maintained and the staff are attentive and willing to help anytime you need anything. If you choose to enjoy the breakfast and other meals, you are in for a treat as the gals do a fantastic job and everything they made us was delicious! House cat is friendly and no bother. One caution is the neighbors dog that lives more at the villa than his own home. He stays away but sneaks in at night and causes a bit of mischief. Put your garbage outside in bins before bed and don't leave your shoes out! That said...if any damage is done (one pair of shoes were ruined of ours)the owners handled the issue with great care and made it right! We would stay there again and suggest it to anyone that is considering this villa! A true Bali treasure!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay. Communication was smooth throughout, and Ketut and Wayan were both so warm and attentive. They prepared a fabulous meal for us, and breakfast was delicious each morning. The villa was clean, peaceful, and beautifully maintained. We especially loved the serene atmosphere and the lovely swimming pool. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.

Villa Lepak was a peaceful and beautiful place to stay for our 3 nights in Ubud. Tucked away by the river, it offered a quiet, relaxing atmosphere while still being close enough to town. The villa was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, with a lovely natural setting that made it easy to unwind. The breakfasts were local and very filling, setting us up perfectly for full days of exploring on a well-fueled body. A special mention to the driver provided — he was highly experienced, even when heavy rain caused the main road to flood. He ensured we were always safe and also shared excellent local recommendations, which truly enhanced our stay. The staff overall were kind and helpful, and we would happily recommend Villa Lepak to anyone seeking a tranquil and well-supported Ubud experience.

It was exactly what I wanted for our adult family to spend quality time together. The villa brought tranquility, by having an outdoor kitchen and living area and by being surrounded by nature. The cat Poppy was very cute and made us feel very much at home. Cleaners, chef and staff were very friendly with great English and manners. I would recommend this stay to friends and family.

We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Lepak. Wayan and Ketut were the highlight of our stay and looked after our every need plus we enjoyed our daily conversations. The villa is so peaceful and quiet, set in a small village environment surrounded by the jungle. My wife loved the kitchen and amenities which made her feel at home.

We loved staying here. Its around a 20 to 30 minute car ride into Ubud centre, but it is such a nice and relaxing little haven away from the hustle and bustle. We especially loved the live in feline resident "Poppy" and the inhouse cooking from Ketut .

We had the best times staying in Villa Lepak by the River. The Villa is situated in a very quiet and serene enclave in the south of Ubud. The views of the river and forest in front of the property are spectacular. Do not miss the sunsets! Rooms, toilets and common areas are spacious and clean. Very tastefully decorated too. The staff were all very helpful and responsive whenever we need advice or assistance. The kitchen is equipped with all the utensils for us to prepare our meals. We also requested for the villa’s cook, Komang, to prepare a few dinners onsite. She is exceptionally great at cooking stunning Balinese dishes made to your preference (less spicy, vegetarian etc2). We would definitely book this place again, as it allows us to fully relax and immerse ourselves in the magical atmosphere of Ubud.

I’ve been staying in Villa Lepak by the river for quite a several times, mostly on the weekends to disconnect from a hectic canggu life . Villa has this unique style , layout and the feeling that instantly make you feel relaxed and chill ? loved sitting in the living room and admire the view on the river or sunset which is so rare to find in one spot. I’ve always had the best peaceful sleep as it’s so quiet and only the sound of nature surrounds you . The bonus of the villa are two friendliest kittens so gentle and loving , for those who love catotherapy ? Highly recommend this hidden gem for people who’s looking for a cozy , quiet, authentic styled house to stay alone or with a company of friends for a quality time . Enjoy!

Villa Lepak by the River is simply a heaven of peace, 10 min away from the vibrant Ubud centre. Besides its tasteful design, mindful service, delicious food options and overall practicality, what remains outstanding about it is the lingering soothing effect this very private home by the river leaves on you. Time stops, contemplation of the surrounding nature takes over, leaving you content and refreshed. Some call it the Bali vibe. I have been traveling to Bali for over 25 years and such heaven of peace can be hard to find these days. It is an all in 5-star recommendation for me!

Ubud is one of my favourite places in Bali and Villa Lepak situated with a truly stunning view of the river encapsulates the true Ubud feeling. This peaceful, homely and thoughtfully designed villa is so special, it’s such a nice place to relax, the best sleep I’ve had in a long time! The neighbourhood is so nice, local and friendly with a great little cafe nearby. We had a special dinner prepared by Komang, amazing local food cooked with love and a smile. The villa is so clean and well taken care of perfect for a stress free getaway. I cannot recommend this highly enough.
