Try www.flipkey.com, type in Nusa Dua for some villas, some are private villas so great value for money.
A private 2 B/R apartment called Penthouse Ruby Nusa Dua in the Novotel there. Check out tripadvisor for reviews and photos.
A taxi ride into Nusa Dua isn't as far as Ubud.
Lots of private villas around, many which are in complexes that allow you to use their facilities at good rates.
