Greenfield, Ubud Bali
26 Jan
Welcome to my humble crib in an artist village called Ubud in Bali.
Which humbly overlooked a rice field and local farmers hard at work.
Where the sounds of frogs, ducks, insects and grasshoppers kept us company throughout the cold night.
We got to sit in our own patio outside our room
To savour a hearty breakfast while enjoying our view
And at the same time ponder on the simplicity of life and how we often forget to enjoy moments like these
Enjoy the little things for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things – Robert Brault

Babe, did you went there just recently to celebrate hubby’s birthday? I wonder how you can apply for so many leave eh
Hey babe, yes I did! Took him out for a romantic dinner cruise. I have 21 days of leave, but my boss is okay with me taking advance leave, hehe. Lucky eh?
Hello!
Looks like a fantastic couple retreat!
Nice to even have ducks keeping you all company through the night
Very different from the usual beachfront getaway in Bali.
Mind giving some insight on this place? What’s your overall opinion? Was just checking the Greenfield website out. Looks pretty good!
Cheers,
Eugene
Eugene, yes it was! But we only stayed for a night before going to Kuta. It’s a highly recommended place for those who just want something quiet and different from what Kuta has to offer.
We stayed in the cheaper room coz they were fully booked but you may check out the new and improved Greenfield bungalows, which are about RM250-300 a night. More modern looking and overlooks the rice field. You could probably just stay about 2 days coz there’s nothing much to do in Ubud at night and there’s no TV in the room, haha.
Hi Cas,now you must share with my how on earth can you find time and the dollar signs to go travelling as often as you do,,,,,after following you such long, i think you should divulge, right?
can share or not?
Hi Senior Eugene, hehe, actually we just employ the moto of ‘Just Do It’, haha. We book cheap flights on AA few months in advance and just go. I think it’s good to indulge in these things once in a while for sanity sake
Hahaha so I’m Eugene and the other Eugene is referred to as Senior Eugene! LOL
Time to start working on a Bali trip! Never been there!
Yea I thought hard about it and figured you wouldn’t like me calling you Eugene Jr so I just went with Eugene
Gosh, you have to go to Bali!! Do you know you can club for just RM30 a night there? It’s crazy! Quite an affordable place to go.
WOW! A nice crib in front of lush paddy fields! That’s AWESOME!! Can you see the sunrise and sunset from your crib??
I’ve only visited the paddy fields in Sekinchan, Kuala Selangor. I would LOVE to see similar tourism initiatives in Sekinchan.
Thanks for visiting for my blog
mylo
It’s awesome isn’t it?
Didn’t get a chance to see the sunrise and sunset from the crib. Only got to do so on the cruise.
I love the photos on your blog, keep up the good job!
hi> read about your stay in Greenfield UBUD> I intend to stay there with hubby and two kids. Is the location ok, easy access to food, shopping, etc? Would it be ok with no TV? We have four nights?!! THANKS
Hi Rachel
Well the location is good because there are nice restaurants and spas (all walking distance) so there’s no issue there. As for TV, I’m not sure how your kids would react to that, hehe. The place can be very quiet and calm at night.
For shopping, you might need a van to take you around and on a tour too coz it’s too far to walk. You may email Pak Wayan at wayan8181@live.com or check out his site http://www.balipartadrivers.com/ for his service. It’s about RP300-350 for a van, whole day.
To be honest, 4 nights in Ubud might get a bit boring. You might want to go for 2 nights instead and then go to Kuta for another 2 nights as there are more activities there eg: shopping/restaurants. But it depends on you if you prefer some place quiet and if you can stand the hustle and bustle of Kuta.
Do you intend to stay on a Saturday in Ubud? If I’m not mistaken they have a no electricity policy every Saturday from 6-10pm so you might want to check with the hotel first. Btw the hotel also has a newer wing which is quite modern looking and nice so maybe you could get them to send you pictures
Any other questions you want to ask, just ask away 
have prebooked rooms for Greenfield and was wondering whether you stayed @ Bale Bunga rooms and how was the place?
Tegal Sari is fully booked and was also looking @ JAti3 bungalows, do u know of any nice hotels there. Am making a 5d4n visit w 2nites in Ubud and another 2nites at another location, any suggestion?
Hiya Kristen, I’ve sent you a LONG email, please check
