Wapa Di Ume Sidemen
$150-350 / nakti
Rezervējiet, ja You want the 'Ubud of 20 years ago' vibe—silent rice paddies, zero nightclubs, and a private pool without the influencer crowds.
Kāpēc cilvēki to mīl
- 360-degree panoramic views of Mount Agung and rice terraces from almost everywhere
- The daily complimentary guided trek through the rice fields at 7 AM
- Kapha Spa's open-air treatment rooms where the river provides the soundtrack
Ātrs apskats: A stunningly photogenic jungle hideaway that feels isolated in the best way, provided you don't mind the occasional gecko in your glamping tent.
Pārskatīts: @jananiundmirko: I honestly couldn't believe this place was real. The infinity pool hanging over the jungle is even more impressive in person. It’s the perfect escape if you want that lush Bali vibe without the crowds. Definitely a bucket list stay for us.

Reality check
The 'glamping' tents, while luxurious, have thinner walls and are more susceptible to humidity and insect visitors than the villas.
- You are a couple seeking absolute silence and privacy
- You want to hike waterfalls and rice fields without fighting tour buses
- You appreciate 'rustic luxury' where nature is part of the design
Tīrība un apkope

- Housekeeping: Daily and thorough, with evening turndown service (cookies included).
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally spotless, though open-air designs mean you might find a stray leaf or ant.
- Maintenance: Good, but showing minor signs of tropical wear (weathered wood, some moss on stone).
- Linens & towels: Fresh and high quality, though pool towels can sometimes feel a bit worn.
- Odors & scents: Smells like rain, wet earth, and frangipani. No musty indoor smells detected.

Pirms grāmatošanas
Noderīgi zināt
- Airport transfer is pricey (~800k IDR) but worth it for the 1.5-hour drive on winding roads.
- There are no convenience stores immediately next door; stock up on snacks/pharmacy items before arrival.
- Nyepi (Silent Day) is strictly observed here; you cannot leave the resort grounds for 24 hours.
Ko ņemt līdzi
- Strong mosquito repellent (the natural stuff provided isn't always enough)
- Hiking sandals with grip for the slippery waterfall trails
- A light rain jacket—Sidemen is greener because it rains more than the coast
Istabu asistents
Labākie ieteikumi
- One-Bedroom Pool Villa: The gold standard here. Huge (118sqm), private pool, river views, and solid walls.
- Di Ume Suite: Great mid-range option with a terrace and epic mountain views if you don't need a private pool.
Istabas, kurām labāk izvairīties
- Lanai Rooms near the restaurant if you are a light sleeper (morning breakfast noise).
- Luxury Tents if you are sensitive to humidity or bugs—they are fancy, but they are still tents.
Istabu pieprasījuma asistents – kopējiet un ielīmējiet
“I would love to request a room/villa with an unobstructed view of Mount Agung, ideally located away from the main restaurant for maximum quiet. If booking a Lanai room, an upper-level unit is preferred for better privacy.”
BUJ un paslēptie paņēmieni
Viss, kas jums patiešām jāzina pirms grāmatošanas.
Is it too quiet?
For some, yes. If you need stimulation beyond a book and a view, you might get cabin fever after 2 nights.
Can I swim in the river?
Technically yes, but the current can be strong. Stick to the pools or the guided treks to safer spots.
Is the food expensive?
Hotel food is Western-priced ($10-20 mains). Local warungs nearby are much cheaper ($2-5).
Are the tents hot?
They have AC, but they struggle to keep up in the midday heat. They cool down nicely at night.
Is it suitable for kids?
Yes, families are welcome and the staff loves kids, but the terrain (stairs, drop-offs) requires constant supervision for toddlers.
Do I need a scooter?
It helps for exploring, but the roads are narrow and winding. A private driver is safer and affordable.
Insider padomi

Walk 10 minutes to 'Warung Ume Anyar' for a $3 meal with a view that rivals the hotel's.
- ✨
The 'Yellow Bridge' (Jembatan Kuning) is a short scooter ride away and offers a classic Bali photo op without the crowds.
- ✨
Book your spa treatment for late afternoon to catch the sunset over the valley from the open-air tub.
5 lietas, kas jāzina pirms doties
💡The 'floating breakfast' in the main pool is often booked by non-guests, making the pool awkward to use in the morning.
💡Maintenance isn't 100% perfect—expect some missing pool tiles or mossy pavers (it's the tropics).
💡The 'free afternoon tea' is a lovely touch but the snacks are quite basic.
💡You can hear the prayers from the local village temples—it's atmospheric, not annoying.
💡The wifi speed is surprisingly good (100+ Mbps), making this a secret work-from-paradise spot.
