The impression you want from three Ubud days
A strong 3-day Ubud itinerary feels like green mornings, temple stone, one lively market, and evenings that end in water—not traffic. Starting from Tirta Tawar makes that rhythm realistic: both The Hideaway and Sawah Retreat share the same quiet corridor about 5–8 minutes from central Ubud.
This plan assumes a private car or Grab for longer hops and walking for the market and rice-path loops.
Day 1 — Arrive, settle, Tirta Tawar loop
Land at DPS, transfer ~1–1.5 hours, check in (often from 15:00). Unpack, swim, then a short walk toward the local market or the stone-and-grass rice lane outside the gate. Keep dinner close; skip waterfall marathons on arrival day.
Couples at The Hideaway lean into courtyard quiet. Groups at Sawah Retreat can stage a shared first meal in the open kitchen.
- Airport buffer before villa time
- Market fruit run (~5 minutes walk)
- Pool sunset, early night
Day 2 — Signature Ubud (forest, temple, Kecak)
Morning Monkey Forest or a temple compound with jungle walkways. Midday villa AC and lunch. Late afternoon spa or gallery. Evening Kecak at a nearby temple—home to the pool afterward.
This is the day that creates the “I was really in Ubud” impression photos—stone, canopy, chanting circle.
Day 3 — Free activity, boutiques, soft exit
Use your included free activity if booked—rice-field cycling with lunch or a Balinese cooking class—or browse boutique streets and the art market. Leave afternoon space for packing and a final swim.
If you have a fourth night, add a waterfall half-day north of Ubud instead of compressing it into Day 2.

FAQ
Is 3 days enough in Ubud?
Yes for a first cultural hit—temples, one forest or waterfall outing, market time, and a Kecak evening—if you base close to town like Tirta Tawar and avoid over-scheduling.
Where should I stay for a 3-day Ubud itinerary?
A private pool villa on Jl. Tirta Tawar keeps nights quiet and transfers short. Choose The Hideaway (2BR) or Sawah Retreat (6BR) depending on group size.
Should I book activities before I arrive?
Book Kecak and any must-do classes in peak months. Our promo villas include one free activity you can confirm during the stay.
