Walking distance (5-7 mins) to Balangan Beach surf & sunsets
Le Resto's surprising mix of home-cooked French and Indonesian food
Lush, manicured gardens that feel like a private jungle sanctuary
In sintesi: A charmingly rustic hideaway where the showers are salty and the roosters are your alarm clock.
Recensito da @Twopassportsabroad: I stayed in a gorgeous bungalow here and honestly, I didn't want to leave. The pool is surrounded by so much greenery it feels like a private jungle, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. It’s the perfect quiet spot in Uluwatu.
Cosa hanno detto gli ospiti che hanno soggiornato qui
The hype
Travelers adore the staff and the peaceful garden vibes, often citing it as a 'home away from home' with excellent food.
Reality check
The 'rustic' charm wears thin when the shower water tastes like the ocean and the pool towels look a bit tired.
You surf or want to be near Balangan Beach
You prefer fan-cooled open living over sealed-shut AC boxes
You ride a scooter and want a quiet base to explore the Bukit Peninsula

Housekeeping: Daily and generally thorough, though some guests note missed dust in high corners.

Maintenance: Good overall, but some wear and tear on pool furniture and umbrellas reported.
Linens & towels: Sheets are clean; pool towels can be a bit stained/worn.
Odors & scents: Mostly fresh garden smells, occasional whiff of burning trash (common in Bali) or drain smells.

FAQ e consigli nascosti
Tutto ciò che vuoi davvero sapere prima di prenotare.
Is the water really salty?
Yes. It's brackish groundwater. It's safe to shower in but tastes salty and won't lather soap well.
Can I walk to the beach?
Yes, it's a 5-7 minute walk to Balangan Beach, but it's a bit hilly and hot.
Is there AC?
Yes, the bedrooms have AC, but bathrooms are often open-air/fan-only.
Is it good for families?
It's okay, but the pool is deep and unguarded, and the open layout requires vigilance with small kids.
Do they serve alcohol?
Yes, they have a bar and the restaurant serves beer, wine, and cocktails.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, and it's highly rated—homemade bread, jams, and eggs to order.
Suggerimenti degli Insider
✨
The 'Babi Kecap' (pork stew) at the on-site restaurant is a hidden gem—better than many local warungs.
✨
Walk to the cliff at the end of Balangan Beach for a sunset view that rivals Uluwatu Temple but without the crowds.
✨
Rent a scooter directly from the hotel to avoid 'local ban' issues with outside rentals.
5 cose da sapere prima di partire
💡The 'garden view' sometimes means looking at the back of another bungalow.
💡The pool water can get quite warm in the afternoon sun—not exactly refreshing.
💡There are no sidewalks in the area; walking anywhere besides the beach is dangerous due to scooters.
💡The 'welcome drink' is often a fresh papaya juice that guests rave about for days.
💡You might spot monkeys near the property—keep your balcony doors locked.
