Capella Ubud is a glamping resort located in Keliki Village, Ubud, Bali. It offers the experience of camping in Ubud’s rainforests and rice fields, and along the sacred Wos River. The tents are set up in a style that reminds you of the 19th-century era of European explorers, which became the inspiration of architect Bill Bensley. He decorated the tents with antiques made by local craftsmen, paying homage to the Indonesian culture. Twenty-two one-bedroom tents and a two-bedroom lodge at Capella Ubud welcome travelers from all over the world.
