I think this one is in Lombok, looks like it's a long ferry ride or short flight away. Will have to do some extra research to determine if it's worth it:

Did you rent a car? I've considered scrapping the Starwoods altogether and booking and independent resort in Ubud if that's the place to go. Just don't want to miss out on the beach.
