Set amongst lush rice fields, jungles and some of Bali’s best temples, Ubud is the cultural heart of Bali. It’s where yoga, mindfulness and an entrepreneurial hustle come together.

A fantastic place for those seeking tranquility and privacy, but also a neighborhood full of greenery and restaurants serving a wide variety of cuisines (local, French, Spanish, Indian, Vietnamese, Mexican, vegan, and much more, including a delicious bakery and a café that roasts beans grown on the island itself). Interesting little shops with products that aren't all the same, but are artisanal and high-quality.
Excellent location both by scooter and on foot (crossing the monkey forest takes you to one of the main roads leading to the center of Ubud). Shared workspace and outdoor kitchen, shared pool, and truly kind, attentive, helpful, and thoughtful staff. We had a problem with the Wi-Fi, and they did everything they could to resolve the issue quickly and efficiently. Excellent daily room cleaning. For Valentine's Day, they left a rose, a personalized card, and chocolates in our room!
A good balance of tourists and islanders who live and work in the neighborhood. Beautiful temple, schools, and a truly worthy yoga center. We stayed for almost a month on the second floor of a Balinese-style brick house, in a bright room with a spacious bathroom, king bed, and a beautiful balcony overlooking the (very well-kept) garden, the pool, and a beautiful sunset view.
We can't wait to come back! We miss you already!
Thank you for everything❤️🙏
It is a fine place to stay and I love the location. If this place had not been advertised as a coworking hotel then I would likely give it 5 stars.
But, this is coworking hotel more in name than in practice.
The wifi was problematic, they took a week of incessant complaining to fix the wifi, the coworking space is a good 10 minute walk away and desk setup in room is not made for working.
In the rainy season this was not ideal setup for a digital nomad.
I did get a chance to checkout the Outpost Penestanan location. It is a hotel that was architected to be a coworking hotel. The coworking space has open air concept and right above the accommodations. The location is on a street that is not very walkable however.
More details on this hotel.
Pros
Amazing location. The area gives you good sense of traditional Ubud architecture. There are a lot of cafes and restaurants walking distance. The rooms are nice. The staff are friendly and warm just like they are everywhere in Bali.
Cons
* I have been a digital nomad for 18 months now and this is the worst internet I have had in any hotel around the world.
* The coworking space is 10 minutes by walk. In rainy season that makes it quite difficult to access. This was not made clear when booking. There are several dozen accommodations that are closer to the coworking space than this one. So, there is no special reason to stay here.
* The desk in the room is not designed for working. The desk a bit too high and there is tiny circular stool. You cant really work on this setup for more than an hour or two at most.
Amazing location. Everything i need is in walking distance. Great food spots and shops, its also located in a quieter part of ubud which i appreciate. The rooms are functional and clean. The staff is the friendliest I have come across in Bali. I also took their coworking pass in nyuh kuning which was super close. Overall convenient, affordable and great value for money. Ideal for someone like me who doeant like working in coffee shops and needs a cowork space nearby. Wil definitely come back!
I stayed at Outpost Ubud in Nyuh Kuning Village and had a good experience. The staff were very friendly, kind, and always helpful. The room was comfortable ,there were some ants at first, but the staff handled it quickly. The area is quiet and relaxing, with lots of nice cafés and places to eat nearby. A peaceful and convenient place to stay.
Outpost Ubud Co-Living was the experience I was hoping to find on a solo sabbatical trip focused on reading and thinking. Accommodations are in small, two-story buildings set within a compound with a beautiful and well-tended garden and a small pool. A communal kitchen and seating area also opens onto the garden and there’s a lovely small pool. My room felt luxurious because of the size and strong AC, as well as a large bathroom. Instead of interior windows, the front walls are glass (with a movable curtain), looking out on the garden and a private porch with seating. Within the walls of the garden, the atmosphere is quiet, although I did connect with a number of people on the Outpost WhatsApp.
A great advantage of this location is the setting. This Outpost is located in a small village with a school, playing field, communal temple, etc. — that nonetheless has a number of lovely small business good for travelers. Motorized traffic exists but far far less than in Ubud Center. Cafés and restaurants are wonderful; I went back repeatedly to Mother and Blend for breakfast, Rajarani for chai and dosas, Old Friends for coffee, 2 BULAN for Thai food. Movement Matters (Piates) and Murani and Anya Spas (massage) and SAMA nails all made my two week stay better, and I found some nice textiles at Tradisi. Everything is within a 15” walk, with the co-working an easy reach even after dark (flashlight for crossing the busy road!). You can also walk through the monkey forest into Ubud Center in about 14 minutes. (Again, bring a flashlight if walking at night!). The back entrance to the Yoga Barn is quite close.
Finally, the Outpost staff are lovely, helpful and efficient but also creating a good feeling.
A wonderful place to rest and feel at peace, surrounded by nature.
Although the location isn’t close to Ubud’s main hotspots, it leads you to discover charming local cafés that are absolutely worth visiting.
What I enjoyed most about my stay at Outpost was the warmth of the staff. They’re always ready to help and share recommendations, especially on how to get around. A special thanks to Ola for always answering my daily questions—haha!
Here you’ll find tranquility, connection with the local community, and a great space to truly unwind.
Ragu and his staff team were able to support any need I had. The gardens are very well kept and the room was everything I needed.
I had stayed before and will stay again!
Outpost Ubud was a very enjoyable stay, I would like to comment on the staff, they were the most friendliest staff and helpful staff I’ve met, they were welcoming and would have conversations whenever I went outside or come back in. It’s in a good location very much right by Monkey Forest and has some good eating places around the area as well as a few spas! The room was slightly a little older but it was nice and had a lovely balcony with a nice view. It was pretty spacious! As for amenities, they offered shampoo, body wash, conditioner and hand soap, they also provided some hangers. Was a lovely time!
