One of the main highlight of the villa is definitely our gorgeous free form pool overlooking the mountain wilderness. Beside the pool there is also a thatched roof bale Balinese day bed, perfect for outdoor relaxation.

Kamandalu UbudDinner: Nasi Campur Indonesia with Prawns, Sate and Beef Rendang

Kamandalu UbudDessert: Fried Banana drizzled with honey and strawberries

For dinner, we managed to try Kamandaly Ubud’s Petulu Restaurant, ornamented with multi-tiered ceiling of polished binkray wood and provides a splendid rice terrace view from the balcony.

The Nasi Campur Indonesia comes with succulent fresh prawns, chicken sate and fork tender beef rendang that is cooked with low heat over few hours to allow flavours to be fully absorbed to the beef and tenderizing the meat. It was delicious, the slight downside was the meal was bit too dry, a bowl of soup or curry would definitely make wonders to this dish. For dessert we had banana fritters to end our meal.
