Ulu Cliffhouse
$150-250/ noche
Reserva esto si You want to wake up inside the party, surf world-class breaks by day, and don't mind a bass line as your lullaby.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Direct access to a private ocean deck and surf breaks
- Only 7 suites, making it feel like a VIP backstage pass to the beach club
- Incredible aesthetic that blends Palm Springs chic with tropical Bali vibes
Resumen rápido: A stylish beach club that happens to have bedrooms attached—bring earplugs and a tolerance for ants.
Reseñado por @ahtravell: I spent the most relaxing morning here before the crowds arrived. The yoga deck overlooking the ocean is a total game-changer, and lounging by the pool with that cliffside view felt incredibly exclusive. Definitely my favorite spot in Uluwatu to recharge.
Lo que dijeron los huéspedes que se hospedaron aquí
Reality check
The 'party until 2am' noise is not an exaggeration, and the humidity takes a toll on the room maintenance (musty smells, peeling paint).
- You are a surfer who wants to check the waves from your balcony
- You plan to spend your days drinking cocktails by the pool anyway
- You appreciate design-forward interiors and outdoor showers
Limpieza y Mantenimiento
7.5
- Housekeeping: Daily service is generally good, but they sometimes miss dust in the open-air corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Outdoor bathrooms are prone to leaf litter and ants; grout can be discolored from humidity.
- Maintenance: Showing signs of salt-air wear—peeling paint and rusted fixtures are common complaints.
- Linens & towels: Towels can feel a bit damp due to the humidity; linens are generally crisp.
- Odors & scents: Occasional whiff of 'damp' or sewage smell in ground floor rooms (common in Bali).

Preguntas frecuentes y consejos ocultos
Todo lo que realmente quieres saber antes de reservar.
Is it really that loud?
Yes. On Fridays and Saturdays, the bass travels through the floorboards until 2 AM. Weekdays are chill after 10 PM.
Can I swim in the ocean?
Yes, but it's for strong swimmers/surfers. You access it via the Ocean Deck stairs. At high tide, it's rough.
Are kids allowed?
Technically yes, but it's an adult-centric environment. No kids' club or shallow pool areas.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, and it's excellent—served a la carte rather than a sad buffet.
How far is the beach?
You are ON the cliff above the ocean. Padang Padang beach is a 5-minute scooter ride away for sand access.
Do I need a scooter?
Highly recommended. Uluwatu is spread out and walking from the hotel to other restaurants is difficult due to the terrain.
Consejos de Insiders

The 'Ocean Deck' bar halfway down the cliff is often quieter and has better sunset views than the main pool.
- ✨
Ask for the 'Cliff Colada'—it's the signature drink and worth the hype.
- ✨
Surfboards can be stored securely on-site; ask the concierge.
5 cosas que debes saber antes de ir
💡The monkeys are aggressive here—do not leave food or shiny objects on your balcony.
💡The 'outdoor bathroom' concept is romantic until it rains while you need the toilet.
💡Room service is just the beach club menu brought to your room (which is actually a plus, the food is good).
💡The WiFi can be spotty in the rooms due to the thick concrete construction.
💡You can hear the waves crashing from your bed if the DJ isn't playing.
