What Is the Bali Swing in Ubud?
The Bali Swing in Ubud has grown from a viral social media trend into one of the most definitive and highly sought-after adventure tourism milestones on the Island of the Gods. Located roughly 20 minutes outside of Ubud's town center, it seamlessly blends heart-racing thrill with the tranquil, sweeping landscapes that characterize inland Bali.
The park features roughly 15 single swings varying in intensity, ranging from beginner-friendly mid-height platforms to extreme, adrenaline-pumping swings that reach up to 78 meters above the valley floor. There are also tandem swings available for couples or friends.

Is the Bali Swing Ubud Worth It? Real Reviews on Trip.com
Personally, I think the Bali Swing in Ubud is absolutely worth it if you love photography and want to capture epic jungle views for your feed. However, if you are traveling on a tight budget or genuinely dislike tourist crowds, you might want to skip it. In my experience, it definitely provides an awesome adrenaline rush and excellent photo opportunities, though you have to go into it knowing it is primarily a highly orchestrated photo experience rather than a serene nature excursion.
The Pros From My Visit
- Unmatched Variety: One thing I loved was the sheer variety. The official location (Bali Swing Pioneer) features around 15 different swings of varying heights. Plus, they have giant bird nests, helicopter decks, and rock beds, which honestly offers way more options than the smaller copycat swings scattered around the island.
- Professional Assistance: The staff members are absolute pros—they act as both swing pushers and personal photographers. I found they know exactly how to guide your poses and are great at snapping the perfect shots using your own smartphone.
- Scenic Views: The jungle and valley views are undeniably breathtaking. Standing there, you really get to take in that quintessential, lush “Bali” aesthetic.
The Cons to Keep in Mind
- It’s Quite Expensive: I found it to be pretty pricey compared to other local activities. Standard entry to the official Bali Swing runs roughly $35 to $45 USD (approx. 500,000 to 650,000 IDR). If you want a full package including dress rentals and a dedicated professional photographer, your total costs will be much higher.
- Long Wait Times: The best and most popular swings have notoriously long lines. I noticed you can easily end up waiting 30–60 minutes just to get a few minutes of actual swinging time.
- A Highly Commercialized Vibe: Don't expect a peaceful retreat; it operates very much like a fast-moving conveyor belt. The staff will enthusiastically yell out posing directions to get you the perfect photo quickly, which can definitely take away from what you'd hope would be a relaxing, peaceful nature experience.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience! 🥹🤍
I absolutely loved the service here! The ladies at the reception were so sweet and helpful, especially when helping me choose a dress. The photographers at every swing were also amazing, taking beautiful pictures with both professional cameras and my phone! 📸✨
I was lucky enough to arrive when there were no queues, so everything went super smoothly.
As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and comfortable the entire time. It was such a lovely day, and I genuinely enjoyed every moment!
Highly recommend, especially for girls traveling solo! 💗

Real Bali Swing, Ubud yakınlarında yer alan ünlü bir turistik noktadır. Devasa orman salıncakları, kuş yuvaları ve fotoğraf alanlarıyla bilinir. Günlük 08.00–17.00 arası açıktır, biletler yaklaşık 500.000 IDR’dir.
4/5
The scenery from the swing is fantastic. However, since there are many other swings in the area, it might be a good idea to consider combining this with your accommodation. Because Ubud is separated by deep valleys and cliffs, things that look close can be farther than expected, so you must verify the location. Also, renting clothes is much more expensive than the swing itself. I understand the cost considering maintenance, but it is still several times the price. Since the fun comes more from taking photos than from the swing itself, men tend to find it uninteresting, so please keep that in mind. Furthermore, I had some trouble during the booking process because I had to cancel and re-book to make adjustments, but the reservation information wasn't transferred.
5/5
it’s nice and must try if you’re in Ubud, but same time need to choose where to do it. There is many different places and on my opinion the best is Alas Harum (Gretya). It’s one of the first and many other options what can do there (one of the best swimming pool, airbicycle drive).
5/5
Staff are very helpful and the photographers are always willing to give good directions for getting the best picture results. Value for money as well 🤗🥰

The hotel is well-located. Since it’s an international hotel, I don’t have much comments on the overall welfare.
I stayed at the ocean suite and I can clearly see the sea view. The room is simple and clean. I give 3 stars to the service as I have experienced very nice service at other stays. I expected to experience better service as this is a 5-star hotel, so this is something that can be improved.
Other than that, all good!FromTWD 1,905

This resort in Uluwatu was an amazing experience! I was pleasantly surprised with a free room upgrade upon check-in, and the room had a fantastic view. The resort's environment is beautiful and peaceful, with lush greenery everywhere. The staff were warm and polite, creating a wonderful vacation atmosphere. The pool is huge and I absolutely loved it; I could spend all day lounging by the pool. It's also quite close to the beach, perfect for surfing. Anyway, it's definitely worth choosing when you come to Bali.FromTWD 2,556

Excellent hotel, super location. Malls are nearby, plenty of places to walk around and eat. The ocean is just a 5-minute walk for a dip in the waves. It's also the best location for excursions.

I have a very pleasant stay here. At 2014 back then when it is still Nikko, my brother had his wedding here and I appreciate the hotel still have their name hang in the wall near Wiwaha Chapel. The room is spacious and clean. The AC works really well. View from our room is so beautiful. Make sure to book the ocean view to enoy the beauty of Bali. We had Mexican dinner at Grain Restaurant, delicious food with Latin live band boost up the mood. Thank you Mrs. Sumerti for the hospitality during dinner.

This is my second time staying at this hotel, and I love its architecture. The breakfast selection isn't very extensive, which is a bit disappointing for a 4-star hotel. The rooms are decent. There are restaurants and shops nearby. The beach is calm with no waves, but the water is a bit shallow. Beautiful sunrises here!FromTWD 2,512

The hotel is quite old. The furnitures, beddings, walls, and everything reflects the age of the hotel. Though the staff probably tried their best to keep the room clean, it is not.. The bedding has stains, walls have cracks, and pipes smell. Minimal amenities provided. It's cheap so I guess you get what you pay for.
The location is very good. Walkable to some mini marts. Grab-able to beach and shopping area with lots of good cafe and restaurant around.FromTWD 395

Sanur Bali|7.01km from downtown
A very good hotel. There are 4 or 5 restaurants, bars, and cafes on site. They have an entertaining evening program. The grounds are large, beautiful, and green, with two pools (one for children with slides and a basketball hoop, and one for adults with a bar). Both pools are separate, so adults can relax by the pool without the screams and squeals of children. The children's pool has family nest-like sunbeds, which are very convenient. The service is top-notch, and all the staff are friendly. The hotel's location is also convenient, near the main street of Sanur, where there are cafes, shops, and stalls. There's a large parking lot for cars. The breakfast buffet caters to all tastes.FromTWD 1,925

Kuta Bali|9.39km from downtown
I initially thought this would be the most negative review of our entire trip to Bali, but let me explain why it's actually the highest rating, and that's all thanks to the amazing staff. We stayed in many places across Bali and, of course, spent nights in various accommodations. Upon check-in, everything seemed perfect, but then I noticed the floors were dirty and the breakfasts weren't quite what we'd imagined. BUT, the staff called a cleaning crew who cleaned the room perfectly with a huge floor-washing machine! Later, we discovered that we really liked the omelets, chicken, and other varieties at breakfast. It would be a sin to complain given the incredibly low price of the breakfasts. The staff were always friendly and smiling, and I want to give a special thank you to all of them for making our stay so pleasant. The location is fantastic as it's easy to get anywhere; we chose this place primarily for quick access to all points of interest, and it truly is convenient. It's great that there's underground parking, so the scooter doesn't bake in the sun. Later, we decided to order food from the restaurant and asked for it to be delivered to our room; the portions were super large, and the cost was very reasonable. Also, there's a good mix of young and old people here, a great contrast! For those who prefer no insects, we also highly recommend it!FromTWD 1,229

Seminyak Bali|6.77km from downtown
The staff were very friendly, helpful, and genuinely service-minded. They were also happy to recommend places and things to do around the area, which we really appreciated.
Unfortunately, there were several issues that significantly affected our stay. During the daytime, there was some burning happening around the nearby rice field, and the smell came directly into our room. It became uncomfortable enough that we had to leave the hotel for a few hours and only came back in the evening.
The biggest problem, however, was the air conditioning. In the middle of the night, the room became extremely cold even though we had not intended to make it that cold. We were surprised to find the air conditioner running at 17°C with the fan at maximum speed. We had to wake up several times to adjust the temperature, and because of this we could not sleep properly until early morning.
The Wi-Fi was also very poor. Once our phones connected to the hotel Wi-Fi, the internet was practically unusable, so we eventually had to disconnect and use our own roaming mobile data instead.
Overall, the staff and service were good, but the air conditioning and internet problems seriously affected the comfort of our stay. If these two issues were fixed, the experience would be much better.FromTWD 651

Uluwatu Bali|19.37km from downtown
A beautiful resort with incredible views and exceptional service 🌴
We had a wonderful stay at Renaissance Bali Uluwatu Resort & Spa. The hotel is beautifully located on a hill, and the views from both the lobby and the infinity pool are absolutely spectacular. It is the kind of place where you immediately feel that you can slow down, relax and simply enjoy being there.
The service was exceptional from beginning to end. Everyone was incredibly kind, attentive and welcoming, and throughout our stay we felt genuinely well cared for. A very special thank you to the wonderful team at Clay Craft Restaurant, which we visited every day - they made our breakfasts and meals even more enjoyable with their warmth and hospitality.
And the breakfasts themselves deserve a separate mention. The selection was absolutely incredible - honestly, I don’t think I have ever experienced such a wide variety of breakfast options at a hotel before. Every morning felt like an experience in itself.
Our room was spacious, beautifully designed and extremely comfortable, with a lovely view from the windows. The entire resort is created in a way that makes it very easy to relax, even if you decide to spend the whole day at the hotel.
We also really appreciated the variety of activities offered by the resort and the helpful Uluwatu guide, which made exploring the area even easier.
Renaissance Uluwatu combines beautiful surroundings, comfort, fantastic facilities and truly outstanding hospitality. A wonderful place to experience Uluwatu, but also a destination worth enjoying in its own right. We would happily return. 🩵🌴✨FromTWD 4,111

Our recent stay at The Apurva Kempinski Bali was, overall, a comfortable and pleasant experience. The resort is grand in scale with striking architecture. The magnificent lobby and large swimming pools are particularly impressive, truly showcasing the elegance of a five-star luxury resort. The hotel's beachfront is also quite nice, featuring clean sand and clear water, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sun and ocean views.
As for the room, the decor felt relatively new, clean, and comfortable. The soundproofing and air conditioning performance were both satisfactory, bringing the overall accommodation quality to a very high standard. The staff were professional, friendly, and attentive, living up to the standards expected of a luxury hotel.
However, the dining experience fell a bit short. Although the restaurant service was excellent, the food quality was only average. Breakfast, in particular, failed to fully meet expectations for a hotel of this caliber in terms of both taste and overall quality. Additionally, food and beverage prices were on the higher side with limited value for money, which is an area the hotel could improve upon.
All in all, the biggest strengths of The Apurva Kempinski Bali lie in its grand architecture, well-maintained facilities, beautiful beach, and comfortable accommodation. While the culinary offerings have room for improvement, it remains an outstanding luxury resort overall. Highly recommended for travelers with a generous budget who prioritize resort ambiance and room comfort!FromTWD 8,089

Sanur Bali|6.62km from downtown
Just like other reviews mentioned, the location was great, the atmosphere was lovely, the food was delicious, and the staff were friendly – everything was wonderful. However, there was just one thing: there were two or three mosquitoes in the room, and each of us got more than 10 bites. When the hotel staff asked if anything was bothering us, I jokingly mentioned the mosquito problem, and they said there was nothing they could do, so I just accepted it. The next day, I searched online, went to a supermarket, bought something like a mosquito repellent mat, and plugged it in, which helped a bit.
After that, I moved to a 5-star hotel in another area, and guess what? There was already a mosquito repellent mat in the room! Perhaps that's why there are no mosquitoes here, and I finally feel comfortable. It would be great if there was a little more thoughtful service. Nevertheless, the food at Fisherman's Club was absolutely delicious, and we had a great time. Next time, I think I'll bring three liquid mosquito repellent mats with me!FromTWD 7,210

Uluwatu Bali|19.75km from downtown
My impressions are mixed. On the plus side: the hotel has a pleasant nook, the road leading to it and the surrounding area are nice, and there's a small lake and a couple of decent restaurants for a quick bite right opposite. It's much better than most of Uluwatu, which is filled with broken roads and endless construction. The rooms are a bit dated; there was a nail sticking out from under the TV stand, and the toilet kept making a flushing noise occasionally after pressing the button, but overall it was clean and tidy. We didn't ask to change rooms, though. Breakfast was satisfactory; like everywhere else, it was sometimes difficult to get eggs from the station, but there were many alternatives like pancakes, local soups and main courses, pastries, and desserts. The same restaurant for lunch/dinner was a bit overpriced, portions were smaller than usual, and there wasn't much meat in the dishes. We also had to order drinks twice and wait before being told they were out of stock. For savings, I recommend joining the hotel's loyalty program for a 20% discount on your bill, but for truly good food, it's better to eat outside the hotel. We booked the hotel with 'bonuses' including a massage, which was fine, and welcome drinks (available any day at the restaurant/bar) – these turned out to be just two tiny glasses of boxed juice. Honestly, it would be better not to offer such a gift at all than to offer that. We only dipped into the pool once; there were no staff members on that floor at all, so we had to bring our own towels. There's a billiards table, but it's always covered with a cloth. There were some cracked tiles and construction boards in places, and they were mowing the lawn nearby. Definitely not a place for a full day of chilling, but you can go for a quick half-hour swim. My biggest dissatisfaction at the hotel was with the towel situation and the staff's response to it. Initially, there were only THREE towels in the room. For two people. In a supposedly four-star hotel. Two bath towels and one foot towel, that's it. Immediately after checking in, we went to the reception and asked for two more small hand towels. A couple of hours later, nothing. We went a second time, and okay, they brought the towels, problem solved. But the next day during cleaning, they took these towels (and note, they weren't thrown on the floor; the hotel's policy is supposedly 'eco-friendly,' and according to the rules in the room, towels for 'replacement' are supposed to be thrown on the floor), and didn't provide new ones. Another trip to reception followed, and we agreed that for the rest of our stay, no towels in our room should be changed at all – just the trash taken out. This rule was followed for another day, but then the towels were taken again. We were too tired to fight it anymore and just accepted it. Judging by other reviews and the situation we observed, there's high staff turnover here; there's one competent administrator, but the rest are green trainees who know absolutely nothing. Also, I recommend getting a room with a balcony, because after two days of drying inside the room, I still had to use a hairdryer on my swimsuit to pack it in my suitcase. With cotton clothes, it would be even worse.FromTWD 1,046

This hotel is a bit far from Lassadova Beach. However, the facilities are a little old, but the breakfast is good. There's a swimming pool around the building, but it was too hot, so not many people were swimming. It's a great hotel for a layover. The breakfast has a wide variety, the coffee is delicious, and there are various fruits. There are few restaurants and supermarkets nearby, so you need to walk a bit to find them.FromTWD 755
