Pro Tips

  1. 1.Arrive early in the morning (8:30-10:00 AM) before tour groups arrive for a more relaxed experience
  2. 2.Bring swimwear and towels for the pool area, plus a change of clothes as kids often get messy during art workshops
  3. 3.Download a translation app as some staff may have limited English, though most activities are visual and easy to follow
  4. 4.Pack mosquito repellent for outdoor play areas, especially during late afternoon
  5. 5.Consider combining your visit with nearby Ubud attractions like the Monkey Forest or rice terraces for a full day out

Best Time to Visit

Weekday mornings (9:00-11:00 AM) are ideal to avoid crowds and heat. The rainy season (November-March) makes this indoor venue particularly valuable, though the dry season (April-October) allows full enjoyment of outdoor spaces and the pool.

What to Know

Admission is very affordable (budget-friendly pricing). The venue has parking available on-site. Light snacks and drinks are available, but full meals are limited, so plan lunch at nearby Ubud restaurants.

Seasonal Notes

Open year-round with extended hours until 9:00 PM daily. The venue is especially popular during rainy season (November-March) when outdoor activities are limited. Check ahead for special cultural workshops during Indonesian holidays like Nyepi or Galungan.
