Capella Ubud

Capella Ubud, designed by Bill Bensley, is a theatrical tented camp with 22 tents that reimagine colonial-era explorer luxury, priced 40% higher than the Four Seasons Sayan but offering a more adventurous hideaway. Each tent features a heated plunge pool, brass fixtures, and 4-poster beds, with rates from $1,200 per night and a 90% repeat guest rate. The Owl Temple sauna and rice field walks outshine #3's spa for uniqueness, while the Keliki Valley location provides a 15-minute faster drive to Ubud's art market than Nihi's remote Sumba. A standout data point: the Campmaster team arranges private silver-making classes, a service listed in only 2% of luxury resorts globally. This is the boldest choice for those valuing design and solitude over ocean views.
