Maleria tablets are not really necessary - unless you want to be 100% sure, but i've heard that they still dont cover you 100%. Dengue fever is the one thing you do need to worry about - there is no prevention apart from lots of mozzie repelent and trying to avoid mosquito's.
As for the other jabs - yes, having had typhoid i recommend doing anything you can do vaccinate yourself against it - not pretty and very sick. Do remember though that you need to get a booster shot after 4 years.
Ubud - visit Casa Luna - and Bebek Bengil (dirty Duck) restaurant- great atmosphere and the food is great.
