MATHIS Retreat Ubud

We loved pur stay at Mathis retreat because off the attentive friendly staff and gorgeous surroundings overlooking the rice paddies it was so peaceful and relaxing. Great selection for breakfast and 6 cooked to a high quality. The spa is a must also, couples side by side balinese massage was amazing!! We look to be back in the future and would certainly recommend to friends and family. Thank you

There was nothing disappointing about our we even stayed an extra night.

I booked Mathis based on the great reviews I read here. I definitely did the right choice because it is really a place with the best staff you could ask for in whole Bali. Nicest and kindest people who just want to make sure your stay is as pleasant as possible. They were always asking for feedback and wanted to make sure you are happy and everything is as expected. Supriman and Wayan from the restaurant staff were simply amazing, they made my last hours at the hotel very enjoyable since I was traveling alone and they kept me company at the bar. The place looks exactly as in the pictures, great location and super close to the center. I would also recommend to try the massage, it was an amazing experience. I read many people were complaining about the wifi, but to be honest, almost everyone buys a sim card in Bali and uses that internet because it's super cheap. So in case you are unhappy with the wifi just buy a sim card and use 35 GB for 5€.

The property was incredible! Exactly as it says! A retreat in Ubud that is close enough to see the amazing sights that Ubud has to offer but also slightly out which gives you the more rural setting, providing you with peace and tranquility! We are travelling with. Two year old and needed a place to stay which would be easy and chilled! Look no further if you are travelling with kids! The property has an on-site restaurant that provides the most delicious food at a cost but well worth it! It’s easy to go for dinner and then step back in your air conditioned room. We also ventured out to the restaurants on our doorstep that were priced amazingly and excellent quality. The staff at the resort were next level, so friendly and accommodating! This was a little piece of heaven in crazy bustling Ubud! 💜

Gorgeous rooms, super clean and lovely bathroom, Pool was great but not enough sun loungers for the amount of people in the hotel. Great breakfast options. Staff were lovely and put on classes for Nyepi such as making offerings (canang sari).

Garden room isn’t exactly a garden, just has a couple of seats overlooking the walkway, and was very dark and doesn’t get the sun. I was overcharged for the room and still haven’t received a refund. Rice field that the pool overlooks wasn’t very well kept and was full of weeds unlike the others around it.

Firstly, this retreat is set amidst rice fields so is exceptionally beautiful. Every room has rice field views, the restaurant overlooks the rice fields and the pool as well. You don't actually realise just how wonderfully relaxing this vista is, until you are here. The rooms are large and airy including a big bathroom with huge bath. The bed was the most comfortable bed and pillows I have ever come across in Bali, firm but soft and comfortable. Linens were of a high quality. The food was all of the highest quality thanks to Chef Kadek. The a la carte breakfast menu just spoilt me and put all those mass produced buffet breakfasts at other Bali hotels to shame. The pool was wonderfully deep and cold. Free shuttle into Ubud central when you want, Grab car back is around $4-$6 AUD. However, probably the best part of the retreat are the wonderful staff, every one of who wrap you in a cacoon of comfort, even taking your hand and helping you walk to your room during a heavy rain storm. I am very much hoping to return. Actaually, now I have experienced Mathis Retreat, I won't be able to stay anywhere else.

Shower was a bit low

The hotel is very calm and relaxing with an amazing view on the rice fields, which is a good break from the busy city center. It is well located in a street that has shops and restaurants, and only a 10 min drive from the center (Ubud Palace). The staff is very friendly and helpful. We took a family suite which consists in connected rooms linked by a corridor. Both rooms were very spacious and luxurious with nice view on the rice fields. Another plus was the restaurant which served food all day and excellent breakfast. The infinity pool was amazing with once again the beautiful view on the field. We came as a family of 4 (6 y.o and 12 y.o children) and we all enjoyed the hotel and its amenities. There were other families and the atmosphere there was very cool and relaxed. Highly recommended!

the surrounding are just astonishing, set in the middle of rice fields, it’s the perfect getaway from any sort of hustle and bustle. you ca. hear so much nature around you at night. we spent 5 days here and didn’t want to move. they have the friendliest staff, so welcoming and helpful and would always remember our names. the restaurant is also top notch, ate there nearly every night, and is truly delicious. I really can’t find anything to complain about. the location is around 10minutes drive from center of Ubud, around 40min by walk. they have a free shuttle service to center till 5pm. we also made use of the laundry service, and they were returned in a day, smelling amazing.

nothing, it’s perfect!

Nice pool area with a view over the rice fields. The room was clean and beautiful and the breakfast was good. The staff were kind but not as personal comparing to those at the smaller family owned places we stayed at during the rest of our holiday. Quiet place with beautiful surroundings but next time I will choose a place closer to central Ubud but still outside town. Because of the traffic and lack of pavement it´s not a nice walk into town and after dark you have to take a taxi. Though there is a nice smaller but longer path you can use in daylight. And the hotel has a free shuttle that runs a few times per day.

Avoid dinner at the hotel restaurant Terracotta. It´s expensive and boring. There are so many good restaurants in Ubud to choose instead. I wish the staff could have given us more information about what to do and see on our own in Ubud with surroundings and at the hotel. The link to their website with hotel information at the card in the room didn´t work.

The area is amazing. Rice fields and birds as far as the eye can see. There were beautiful tropical gardens and ducks in the pond. The restaurant was great and staff were lovely. The rooms were a little basic but nice - the tub in the bathroom was stunnng. Best of all, the pool overlooking the rice fields was a absolutely gorgeous and very relaxing.

The internet was poor and there was NO tv facilities. The retreat advertised full access to foxtel etc but there were no channels at all.

Perfect place in Ubud! The new manager is very professional and service-minded. Despite an issue with the room booking, he managed to find an excellent way to solve and compensate for the issue. Calm and surrounded by lovely nature, yet easy access to the center (either by walking through rice paddies or using the free hotel shuttle than runs every 2nd hour). The rooms are comfortable, well equipped and decorated with taste.

Only little thing we could mention: there are not enough lounge chairs by the pool and they stay in the shadow most of the day.
