Waarom mensen ervan houden

  • Jaw-dropping bamboo architecture with rice terrace views
  • Private pool and hot tub in the middle of the jungle
  • Floating breakfast and flower pool upgrades are pure Instagram gold

Snel Overzicht: A visually stunning architectural marvel that forces you to trade modern comfort (AC, soundproofing, bug-free zones) for aesthetic glory.

Beoordeeld door @Travelholicday: I felt like I was living in a fairytale here. The bamboo architecture is stunning, and having a private flower pool in the middle of the jungle was the most romantic experience of my life. Perfect for disconnecting.

The hype

Reviewers are universally blown away by the design and views, calling it 'magical' and 'better than the photos.'

Reality check

The practicalities often frustrate: stained linens were reported in April 2025, the projector has weak audio (bring a speaker), and the on-site food is often described as 'basic and overpriced' with limited availability.

  • You are an influencer or photographer chasing unique content
  • You are comfortable with 'glamping' (bugs, humidity, outdoor showers)
  • You can ride a scooter to explore nearby waterfalls

Schoonmaak & Onderhoud

8
  • Housekeeping: Daily cleaning is generally good, but missed spots (dust on high bamboo beams) are common.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Hit or miss. Outdoor bathrooms accumulate debris quickly. Recent reports of 'stained sheets' (April 2025) are concerning.
  • Maintenance: Bamboo ages fast in the tropics. Expect some creaky floorboards and the occasional leak during heavy rain.
  • Linens & towels: Towels can feel damp due to humidity. Check sheets immediately for stains upon check-in.
  • Odors & scents: Smells like damp earth and rain (pleasant for some, musty for others).

Voordat je boekt

Goed om te weten

  • This property is effectively part of the 'Magic Hills' complex/management, so check-in might be at their reception.
  • It is remote — 90 mins from Ubud. You are stranded without a scooter or hired driver.
  • The projector is a cool perk but has terrible built-in sound; bring a Bluetooth speaker to connect.

Wat je mee moet nemen

  • High-strength DEET bug spray (essential)
  • Earplugs (for the roosters)
  • Bluetooth speaker (for the projector)
  • Power bank (outlets can be scarce/inconveniently placed)

Kamer Genie

Beste keuzes

  • The main '1-Bedroom Villa' is the primary listing — it's a massive 3-story structure. The top floor offers the best views but is hottest.

Kamers om te vermijden

  • Avoid the netted outdoor daybed for actual sleeping; it looks cool but is uncomfortable and buggy.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips

Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.

Is there air conditioning?

No. There are fans, but the house is open-air. It cools down at night, but midday can be humid and sticky.

How bad are the bugs?

Significant. You are in the jungle with open walls. Expect moths, ants, and mosquitoes. Use the mosquito nets diligently.

Is breakfast included?

Usually yes, but it's often described as basic. Floating breakfast is an extra charge (approx. 350k IDR).

Can I walk to restaurants?

Barely. 'Warung Lontong Gus Lelo' is about 450m away, but for proper dining, you need a scooter or car.

Is it private?

Mostly, but farmers work in the rice fields below, and other bamboo villas are nearby (approx. 100m away). It's not total isolation.

How do I get there?

Airport transfer is around IDR 700,000 ($45). Grab/Gojek can drop you off but getting picked up from there is very difficult.

Tips van Insiders

  • ✨

    Walk 5 minutes down the road to 'Warung Lontong Gus Lelo' for authentic local food at 1/4 the price of the hotel menu.

  • ✨

    Don't fill the 3rd-floor bathtub to the brim; it has a known design flaw where overflow water leaks directly onto the floor below.

  • ✨

    The 'flower pool' setup takes hours to arrange — book it at least 24 hours before you arrive.

5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat

  • 💡The 'projector movie night' sounds dreamy until you realize you can't hear the dialogue over the crickets.

  • 💡The stairs are steep and lack rails in some spots — a genuine hazard for kids or tipsy guests.

  • 💡You might find mouse droppings or a stray frog in the bathroom; it's part of the 'eco' package.

  • 💡The wifi is surprisingly decent for the location, but power cuts do happen during storms.

  • 💡The 'private entrance' is often just a dirt path that gets muddy when it rains.
