Bambu Indah, a luxurious boutique hotel in Ubud, Indonesia is a travel-enthusiast's dream. The hotel boasts a wide-range of vacation homes that can fit anywhere from one to four guests.
While the hotel does feature luxurious amenities, it still sticks to the cultural vibes that the island has to offer. Each home was carefully crafted by designers and Bali-natives John and Cynthia Hardy out of teak wood. The couple started curating the eleven homes in 2005, but now, after being restored and adorned, they are finally ready to house travelers.
Bamboo Indah is made with antique architecture in mind, but crafted with sustainable materials. One of its best features is that many of the homes have glass-bottomed floors. The infrastructures are situated over top of ponds, so in many cases, guests can see clear ponds below them through the floor of their bedrooms.
