About Folk Pool & Gardens

Tucked just off Monkey Forest road, this pool garden cuts right through central Ubud’s stifling midday heat. Cool water—refreshing, never lukewarm—meets submerged barstools where swimmers order cocktails without towelling off. Regulars skip the market bustle to camp out in private teepees, grazing on pork ribs and complimentary tapas beneath the palm fronds. By nightfall, festoon bulbs flicker on, warm popcorn accompanies open-air movie screenings by the water, and staff send you off with a quiet *suksma*.

  • Swim-Up Pool Bar: Submerged pool seating lets swimmers order cocktails and cold drinks directly from the water without breaking up their swim.
  • Teepee & Daybed Packages: Rentable teepee cabanas and sunbeds bundle pool entry with ice water and complimentary tapas for unhurried grazing.
  • Day-to-Night Shift: Sun-soaked afternoon lounging transitions into evening with hanging festoon lights, mellow soundtracks, and outdoor movie screenings.
  • Balinese & Western Dining: The kitchen spans Balinese staples and Western comfort fare, pairing charred ribs and pasta with accommodating care for dietary preferences.

  • Midday Heat & Crowd Refuge

    Step off Ubud's bustling central streets into a secluded garden pool setting built for slow daytime decompression.

    It is the perfect place to unwind and spend a few hours away from the busy centre.

  • Reserved Teepee Lounges

    Private teepee setups allow pairs and small groups to linger all afternoon over shared food, background music, and poolside drinks.

    We booked a teepee lounge and stayed here all afternoon relaxing by the pool, listening to the nice music and eating their great food.

    On-site outdoor showers and private changing rooms offer a practical staging ground after volcano treks or before heading to the airport.

    there was an outdoor shower to rinse off before changing clothes in the changing room to travel in.

  • Bundled Daybed Packages

    Package bookings bundle pool admission, mineral water, and complimentary tapas into straightforward daybed and teepee reservations.

    It’s great value for money as you get some tapas, a carafe of water and entry to the pool which you’d need to pay for anyway.
