Ubud and Nusa Dua balance each other out nicely IMO and doesn't involve an unreasonable amount of travel. I can't speak to all the Marriotts in Ubud, but as far as locations and general standards of service for what you've expressed, Westin Ubud does seems like your best bet. I have mixed feelings about Sthala (would return, but dislike the location and found the breakfast hall to be dark and disorganized). I've not stayed at Element Ubud (
thread here) but it's Westin's limited service brand, so it just seem like you could do better for half of your precious 6 nights in Bali. To be clear, I love the grounds, pool, Platinum cocktail hour, F&B team at Westin Ubud, just warning others that the side of the building your room is on plays a huge role in how much you'll enjoy your stay.
