Another cool thing about Villas in Ubud is the wide variety of interesting animals one can see while on vacation. There is no doubt that in a tropical climate like Bali, the number of critters of all shapes and sizes is significant. The fun thing is that many of these are the kind of thing we would not normally see in our everyday lives, especially for city dwellers. This can be an exciting and fascinating lesson about ecology in a unique and exotic part of the world. Indonesia is very bio-diverse with a number of difference climates that feature a variety of curious creatures.

Some basic ones you might see at Ubud villas like Villa Amrita are a wide array of different types of frogs. Some big, some small and some tiny, Bali’s frogs also make/emit a surprising variety of sounds. It is particularly extraordinary how big a sound can come from such a small animal. It is also incredible (and also very cute) to see a frog that is really, really tiny like in the picture here.

At one time, fire flies were practically ubiquitous in Bali. Now, one only tends to see these fantastic flying insects in cool, remote and undisturbed portions of the island. Villa Amrita is one Ubud Accommodation where you can see them almost every day of the year. In the evening, while in the pool or hanging out on the balcony, one can see the little flickers of light in the canopy of the trees in front or out hovering over the rice fields. What a cool treat!

There are many creepy crawlies, lizards, spiders and other insects. Butterflies are also very common. We have never seen a snake, but we imagine they do exist somewhere. There are many bats in our area and they can be seen around dusk each night swooping in and out of the trees and over the pool snatching insects with their sensitive sonar capability.

There are plenty of chickens, cute ducks and other exotic birds, including some eagles, king fisher and much more. Monkey, dogs, cows, pigs and even elephants are no doubt some of the most prominent larger animals that visitors might see.



Ubud Villas are a very nice place to observe a bit of nature in a comfortable and convenient location. If you want to make some special memories try to book your stay at Villa Amrita.
