We absolutely loved our stay here! While it is a bit remote, that's actually a plus since it is really hectic down in Ubud city center (the traffic is unreal!). If you're looking for somewhere quiet to relax and unwind, this is the place to be. The villa itself was beautiful and while the private pool was a bit smaller than I expected it was more than enough for me and my spouse. The bed was comfortable and being in your villa felt very secluded (i.e. no shared interior walls and high exterior walls between you and the neighboring villa).
The staff was really what made this a 5-star stay though. They went above and beyond to meet your needs and make sure you felt welcome and comfortable. On our first full day there we accidentally left our bug spray in our driver's car (I highly recommend hiring a private driver to take you around - I meant it when I said the traffic is hectic!). We went out on a limb and asked the front desk if they had any bug spray we could use and they gave us a whole bottle to keep.
They do discourage the use of grab delivery drivers for food, which initially put us off, but the restaurant that they have on site was so good and reasonably priced that we wouldn't have wanted to go anywhere else for dinner anyways (the rib eye and chicken cordon blue were excellent!).
The ant situation is real (you are in a more rural area) but if you're careful not to leave food or drink out you should be fine.
