Photos and Description of the Ubud vacation rental
2 bedroom luxury villa retreat sleeps 4 plus cot

River Moon is a stunning two bedroom villa. Its spacious light filled rooms have a modern aesthetic with traditional accents such as the cooling alang alang roofs. Large windows and sliding doors open up to enable outdoor/indoor living. The bedrooms feature comfortable four-poster beds with European inner spring mattresses, pillows and goose down duvets. Each bedroom has its own en suite, one with an outdoor bath. For guests who enjoy cooking River Moon has a well-equipped kitchen. One of the highlights of River Moon is the spectacular rice field views to the north and a secluded private garden with a deck facing the river to the south. Plenty of comfortable areas both inside and outside make River Moon the ideal place to relax. River Moon is secluded and you can experience authentic Balinese village life, yet it is only 10 min drive from the restaurants, shopping and services of Bali's No. 2 tourist destination, Ubud. The holistic Pelangi School for children 18months+ is 5min drive.

The surroundings and gardens: One of the highlights of River Moon is its location. With superb rice field views it is situated in a small Balinese village. All the staff who work at River Moon and, indeed, constructed the house are from the neighbouring street.

Watch the beauty and transformation of the rice fields, go for a walk in village and see offerings being laid out, men sitting outside their family compounds patting their prized roosters and Balinese children playing in the streets. Or stay at home and enjoy the plentiful comfortable places both inside and outside to relax.

The area is rich in flora and fauna. Frogs, lizards, butterflies, herons and dragonflies are daily visitors. An extremely shy turtle and monitor live in the balé pond. Only the very quiet and patient are rewarded by appearances.

Desa Bulan : River Moon is part of the intimate Desa Bulan (Moon Village) enclave of six houses designed by Martje Nietzman and Erik van der Linden. Most of the houses are owner occupied. The superb 14m salt water swimming pool with its deck and pool side balé are shared facilities.

At your doorstep: Stay at River Moon and be seduced by the quiet, contemplative environment ideal for rest and rejuvenation. Once your batteries are recharged there are many cultural, adventure and culinary experiences to be found in Ubud just 10 minutes away.

Ubud is also the host to several well known annual international events, such as Bali Spirit Festival Festival and the Ubud Readers and Writers Festival.

Hello Kate,

- back on our desk in busy Shanghai - kindly note that we have tremendously enjoyed the
River moon Villa & Garden – the fantastic natural environment – no disturbance,

The pleasant and discrete team who made breakfast - turn down and the daily cleaning is great and very friendly.

We enjoyed also the recommended visiting Masseuse and Suriani to cook us a great Balinese dinner.

We sure will come back – hoping to find a vacant slot in the availability chart.

Thanks for a very relaxed vacation and all your patient comments you have sent me before the booking

Best & Cheers
robert & ling Fierz
PS> Ubud is near - but a car with or without driver or Taxi is required.
Owner's Response: Thank you Robert. We are so glad you enjoyed yourselves. Yes, one of the great advantages of the villa is that it is close to Ubud and all its conveniences and yet located in a Balinese village. It's very peaceful here with sublime rice field views and is perfect for a getaway. As you say some sort of transport is definitely required. The staff are very happy to help arrange taxis and I can also help with car rental. Warmly, Kate

What a gem!

We were very warmly welcomed by Wayan all smile and such a warm and friendly person. Then he invited us into the house and we were simply overwhelmed.
A stunning place, so elegantly furnished, well equipped and intimate with a spectacular view of the sawahs, the enormous kites high up in the air, farmers taking care of the rice.
So much more than the already promising photos!
Our 3 children couldn't stop making the tour of the house: "Mom, dad, wait until you see the bathrooms! " Elegant, luxurious without being over the top and
everything functioning as if in Europe.
The swimming pool is at 30 meters, as beautiful, clean and well equipped as the villa.
The staff equals if not surpasses the quality of the house: simply the best we've had during our tour of 3 villas and 2 hotels! Preparing delicious small pancakes at breakfast
or taking care of the shut-down every evening at sunset, getting us a scooter and so on.
Wayan, Kadek and Made made us feel so welcome and special and they were really connecting, not just merely providing a service.
We wanted to keep it a secret: nobody should know about River Moon! It had become our special place.
But I owe it to the owners - Kate and her husband - who've managed to squeeze us in a week before arrival in Bali to share our experience.
Thank you Kate for helping us out and sharing your lovely house.
