We stayed 5 nights at Kano Sari's Taman Suite. Since there are only 6 suites at the villas, it was nice, quiet and intimate. The grounds are beautiful and is constantly being maintained. They really take care of their property. Our suite was steps from the pool, which we used at the end of our excursions. It was also nice not to compete for loungers by the pool.
The suite was very pretty and traditionally decorated. The bed was comfortable and at night the staff would prepare the mosquito nets around it. The windows are not fully concealed from the outdoors, so there was a balancing act to keep the room cool with the air-conditioning. The wardrobe room and bathroom area are large and are exposed to the outdoors, so it is not as cool as the bedroom. However, during turndown service, they replace the window wooden slats to reduce the exposure to the outside elements. Plenty of storage space for clothes and luggage in the wardrobe room. They provide mosquito spray, sarongs, and beach towels if needed for any excursions like the water temple.
We used their airport pick up service which was very convenient. We also booked with the hotel's driver/guide tour which was easy to organize by emailing the hotel ahead of our stay. They respond very quickly and accommodated a modified tour we requested. They even provide a list of evening cultural performances in Ubud since there is always several events happening at night. Most times they can get the entrance tickets for you. They recommend restaurants based on previous tourists' experiences. They have a free shuttle into town or you can arrange a ride for a small price. Most times we just used the Grab app which is similar to Uber. The massage service was heaven after long walks during the day.
The staff service was excellent. They filled my water bottle with ice and water before going on our excursions. They always asked if we needed any food and drinks when we arrived back to the villa. They take your order for breakfast the day before, so its ready for you when you arrive at the dining room the next morning. Because it is such a small villa, the service was quick and they are very attentive to their guests. Always ready to be helpful. Highly recommend to stay in this beautiful oasis.

The service and staff at Kano Sari are great. The food was excellent. Everyone was as helpful as possible. Our only complaint is that we stayed in the lowest room in the villa, one of two down near the end, that had air conditioning but also open slat wood windows, so the AC could not cool the place down as it was essentially open. When we tried to close the slats fully, then we had no natural light and mosquitoes and noise still entered. The bathroom was outdoors and attached and the weather so humid, we could never get our clothes dry. If the windows were replaced with glass, like the upper units, it would have been perfect and quieter. We happened to be there during a local construction project nearby that started early and lasted until 1030 pm and created dust, again, something we could not close windows to avoid. Maybe someday the owner will put in glass windows in the bedrooms? That would help a lot on noise, dust and air quality plus keep out the mosquitoes. In terms of location, it was a 10 minute walk to town for young people, 15 minutes for seniors, but they always drove us to town when asked. I would not stay there again except in rooms with glass windows and natural light.

We booked this online expecting a nice stay but wow! It was fantaastic. With a beautiful blend of Western and Balinese hospitality, its the bees knees. The entrance off a small street is deceptive, and once you walk down the colourful driveway, you are met with serene beauty and an outlook that is cool and inviting. The place has been carefully planned so that you can stay in the individual rooms with complete privacy and quiet. A group of us chose to stay here and we were so happy we did. We could meet at the restaurant/breakfast area in the morning, next to the spacious pool and watch meals being brought to us by the lovely Balinese staff as they wound their way through the tropical gardens. We could plan our day then meet up in the pool in the afternoon. The rooms are spacious and luxurious. Each night and morning the staff prepare the rooms with the beds turned down and romantically surrounded by mosquito netting at night. The bathrooms are incredibly laid out with marble and every accessory needed. The staff are also amazing. Friendly and thoughtful, they anticipate and cater to your every need. Karen, the owner, offers advice on where to visit, the best times to go and what to look out for. Advice that is well appreciated. I can highly recommend this property for anyone who wants to stay in gorgeous surroundings in a beautiful part of Ubud.

Kano Sari is a wonderful place to stay. The staff are all so kind, welcoming & helpful. They gave lots of recommendations about the local area (and beyond) & organised all of my day trips with an excellent guide & driver. I was keen to learn some Indonesian phrases while there & Tiayu in particular was very patient in helping me with this. The breakfast is incredible with a changing a la carte selection throughout the week, not to mention the gorgeous setting by the pool & overlooking the jungle trees. There is also a great selection of food options throughout the day for snacks, lunch or dinner. The villa itself is a relaxing place with lots of different places to set yourself up with a book or just to sit & listen to the sounds around you or enjoy a swim in the pool. Even on rainy days this place is a peaceful & refreshing retreat. The room is very comfortable & private (I stayed in Tepi, but all rooms have their own space) & the bathroom was fantastic. On my first day my runners got saturated & the team was able to arrange for these to be washed & dried through their laundry service (extremley reasonable rates). The team are also able to arrange in house massages & other spa type services or help to book these for you at one of the many spas around Ubud. Ubud is a great place to experience culture, art & food. Kano Sari is a perfect base for your adventures or if you prefer just to stay in and enjoy all that it has to offer. Thank you again to Novi & your team, I hope to get to visit you again! Suksma :)

Our stay at Kano Sari Villas in Ubud was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by beautiful decor and immaculately clean surrounding. All the staff were exceptionally attentive and friendly, providing outstanding service throughout our stay. Our booking was a birthday celebration and the bed was decorated with rose petals, which was so lovely. The breakfast was delicious and freshly prepared each morning. We were also provided a complimentary dinner which was delightful.
Kano Sari Villas is ideally located, just a short distance from Ubud centre, with a shuttle service provided. The pool area was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring Ubud. Attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the property, from the comfortable bed, quality linen, effective air conditioning to the artwork and decor, all these thoughtful touches made our stay even more enjoyable.
Thank you Kano Sari team for creating a perfect blend of hospitality, comfort and luxury.

What a lovely place to stay Kano Sari Villas is. Big room, lots of storage space, great bathroom and lovely pool. The staff are so attentive and keen to help. The breakfasts are great and vary every day so lots of choice. If you like eating out in the day, you can have a small breakfast and lots of fruit. The staff can quickly organise drivers for tours and to the airport if wanted (give at least 24hours notice to be sure). The location is 10min away from the main road 15min away from the lovely side roads in Ubud. This is a quiet hotel and not really set up for drinks in the evening, but with so much in Ubud you will appreciate the calmness here. 100% recommend.

Karen, Novi, Tia and the rest of the team at Kano Sari were so beautiful. We enjoyed our stay so much and nothing was too much trouble. I mentioned one morning that I liked snake fruit and the next morning they were there at breakfast. We appreciate the attention to detail, How clean everything was and that we were made to feel like family. We will definitely be back. Thanks again everyone. Natalie x

Located close to the main area of Ubud but along a very quiet, well cared for side street the Kano Sari Villas are a hidden gem. We were there for their 8th birthday but they look almost brand new. Owned by an Australian couple who take great pride in delivering an exceptional stay, where you are cared for by the most helpful staff you could wish for. The breakfast on site was amazing, the pool is Crystal clear and catches ample sun in the morning and is one of many great spots of relax around the property. We didn’t try the spa on site but it’s setting is amazing looking out into the jungle. The rooms are tidy, spacious enough with great storage and a large modern bathroom. There are several large living room areas to relax, as well as outdoor spots you could grab a book and sit peacefully at. We arrived unannounced and the staff were magic, they had us sorted with a room within 30 minutes and we were well catered for while we waited. The level of cleanliness is unrivalled. One of the best places I’ve stayed ever in Bali and would definitely go back.

An amazing stay of eight nights at Kano Sari. The staff were so attentive and helpful, from offering iced water whenever we arrived back from a walk to helping with bookings at local day spa and restaurants. We can’t thank Novi and the team enough for their attention to detail. Kano Sari is superbly located being close enough to walk to shops and restaurants but far enough away to be a peaceful retreat from the bustle of the city centre. Breakfast was delicious with several choices available each day. We also enjoyed an evening meal when we wanted a night in. Thank you once again to the team at Kano Sari, we will be back!

Kano Sari is a top ambassador of Bali’s hospitality. This is mainly down to the excellent staff at Kano Sari who proactively and happily take care of all your needs. Property itself is also great, close to Ubud town and still secluded once you are in the premises. Breakfast is delicious, specially their Bubur Injin and they catered to all our dietary requirements. Pick-up, drop-off and day trips were also very well organised for us. We would love to stay here every year.

Hi, We often have guests arriving on late night flights - especially from Australia. It is not a problem to arrange for one of our drivers to meet your flight and bring you to Kano Sari. Please let us know if you would like us to arrange that for you.
Hi Jaqui, this is not my property, I only stayed there on a break with friends. I would say the area is very safe, we never had any problems. Karen the owner would be able to answer your questions and arrange pick up from the airport. I hope this helps. Mary
Hi Kay
The Jepun suite, like our other suites does not have internet in the room. However we do have great wi-fi in the main building of the villa - and with cane chairs and a great daybed on the terrace it will not be hard to keep in contact with your mum.
Warmest best wishes Karen
Hi
Thanks for your enquiry. We can organise airport transfers in a private air-conditioned car at whatever the time, day or night that you arrive.

Warmest best wishes - Karen
