Kurzfassung: A visual masterpiece that plays fast and loose with the word 'private'—especially regarding the pools.
Bewertet von @juliathetraveler: I stayed here for a romantic reset and was blown away. The way the room opens up to the rice fields is magical. My favorite part was the outdoor shower—felt so connected to nature. Just remember to bring bug spray for the evenings!
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
Multiple reports of 'private pool' expectations being crushed when strangers appeared right outside the glass doors.
- Your primary goal is creating content for Instagram/TikTok
- You are comfortable riding a scooter to get around
- You enjoy nature sounds (geckos, roosters) over dead silence
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
8.5
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable, generally spotless floors.
- Bathroom hygiene: Good, but 'faulty rain showers' and 'broken hairdryers' are occasional maintenance gripes.
- Maintenance: Newer property (built ~2022/23) so major wear is minimal, but humidity takes a toll quickly in Bali.
- Linens & towels: Fresh and white, though pool towels can run out during peak hours.
- Odors & scents: Fresh lobby smell, but some ground floor rooms can smell damp/musty due to lack of airflow.

Zimmer-Genie
Beste Auswahl
- Ubud Room (50sqm) — The true winner. It has a private outdoor bathtub (actually private) and more floor space than the cramped Paddies Room.
- Paddies Room — Small (18sqm) but offers the most unobstructed rice field views if you just want a view from bed.
Zimmer, die Sie meiden sollten
- Jungle Room with Pool — Unless you want an audience while you relax; the pool is shared and right in front of your glass wall.

FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is the pool actually private?
No. The 'plunge pools' are shared or semi-private at best. Guests can swim in front of 'pool access' rooms.
Can I park my car there?
No. The hotel explicitly states 'Parking Area (Motor Bike Only)'. Car renters will struggle to find a spot on the narrow road.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, and it's a highlight. You can request a 'floating breakfast' for the gram.
How far is the center of Ubud?
About 3-4km. It's an 8-10 minute scooter ride or a sweaty 40-minute walk downhill.
Is it adults only?
Yes, the vibe is strictly for couples and peace-seekers, no kids allowed.
Is there a gym?
No, there is no fitness center on the property.
Insider-Tipps
- ✨
Walk 2 minutes down the road to 'Made Becik Waroeng' for authentic, cheap, and safe local food when you're tired of hotel prices.
- ✨
Watch the sunset from the Petulu village main road to see thousands of herons returning to their nests—it's free and magical.
- ✨
Check your glass water bottles before drinking; a guest reported algae in a reused bottle, so pour into a glass first to inspect.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The 'Jungle' view is often just a dense thicket of trees right against the window, blocking light in some lower rooms.
💡The bathroom is semi-outdoor in style for some rooms—expect humidity and the occasional ant visitor.
💡Traffic on Jl. Tirta Tawar can get surprisingly gridlocked during temple ceremonies.
💡The TV has Netflix, but the WiFi speed can struggle to stream 4K in the evenings.
💡You might wake up to a staff member sweeping the 'private' terrace area if you don't close your curtains.
