A Luxury Family Holiday in Ubud at Viceroy Bali

Viceroy Bali was built for privacy, unhurried time, and the kind of stay that leaves a lasting impression. For families who share the same values, it offers something genuinely rare: a boutique hotel in Ubud where space, seclusion, and considered service extend naturally to guests of all ages.

The location sits on the edge of the Petanu River gorge, above the Valley of the Kings, 10 to 15 minutes by car from central Ubud. Forty private pool villas set into the highland jungle, each villa facing the valley. Three dining venues. A spa. A cinema room. And beyond the gates, one of the most culturally and naturally rich destinations in Southeast Asia.

Where Families Stay at Viceroy Bali 

Viceroy Bali has four villa options well suited to families, from interconnecting villas for younger children to expansive two-bedroom residences for larger groups.  

Deluxe Terrace Villa

At 150 m² with a 3.5m x 4.5m heated infinity pool and a traditional Balinese pavilion overlooking the valley, this works beautifully as a standalone family villa. Select units can be arranged as interconnecting two-bedroom villas, giving each family member their own area while keeping the group together.

Each villa retains its own bedroom, bathroom, and lounge. A security latch on the bedroom-to-pool sliding doors gives parents of younger children peace of mind.

Vice Regal Villa

At 320 m² with an 8m x 3.5m heated pool, the Vice Regal Villa offers a two-storey layout with the master bedroom on the ground floor and a second bedroom with a balcony upstairs. A natural separation between adult and children spaces without any distance between them. Five units available. Contact the reservations team early to secure availability. 

Viceroy Villa

The most spacious option at Viceroy Bali, well suited to larger families and multi-generational groups. At 400 m² with two bedrooms, two en-suites, a jacuzzi, a kitchenette, and a 4m x 12m heated pool set against a manicured garden and jungle ravine views. Ample space for the whole family to gather, rest, and move freely throughout the stay.

The Viceroy Bali Family Package 

The Bali Family Package is designed to offer families exceptional value, privacy, and comfort at the retreat, with a minimum stay of two nights. 

For children under 12, the package includes a complimentary extra bed and daily breakfast, children eating free at CasCades Restaurant, a daily scoop of ice cream, one complimentary activity during the stay, a welcome gift, in-villa pool toys and bath toys, and a family movie screening at the Cinema Room.

For adults, the package includes a 60-minute Balinese massage at Akoya Spa, a daily signature cocktail at CasCades Restaurant, one basket of complimentary laundry, and four hours of private babysitting. This gives parents uninterrupted time to relax, whether at Akoya Spa, the main infinity pool, or simply on the villa terrace overlooking the valley. 

Family Experiences at Viceroy Bali 

Children enjoy the floating rings and pool toys in the main 200 m² infinity pool. They can do other on-site activities, such as kite-making, cupcake decorating, fish feeding, picking vegetables, and Balinese offering lessons. The Cinema Room is available for family movie screenings, and kids’ spa treatments are available on request as part of the family package.

Parents find their rhythm at Akoya Spa, which offers a genuine retreat within the property. Lunch at CasCades Restaurant, with the valley stretching out below, from 11 am onward, is one of the quietly defining moments of a stay at this boutique hotel in Ubud.
