On Sundays, you have the freedom to explore the many restaurants and healthy food places in Ubud or around the rice fields. This gives you the opportunity to discover new and exciting dining experiences.

If you have special dietary requirements, such as a vegan or gluten-free diet, accommodations can be made. It’s a good idea to communicate your needs before making a reservation.
