Ba Bar Cottage Penida

Rezerviraj to, če You need a cheap, crash-pad base right off the Toyapakeh fast boat pier and plan to spend 90% of your time exploring.

Zakaj je to priljubljeno

  • Walking distance (4 mins) from the Toyapakeh port
  • Attached restaurant (Ba Bar Kitchen) has a lively social vibe
  • Infinity pool access with ocean views (via the restaurant)

Hitri pregled: A budget garden cottage complex hiding behind a busy restaurant where the convenience of the location battles with the noise of the kitchen and the roosters.

Pregledano od @manonmakesugcI stayed in the King Suite and honestly, the vibe is so peaceful. The wooden cottage felt super cozy, and hanging out by the infinity pool watching the ocean was the highlight of my Nusa Penida trip. Definitely grab dinner at the restaurant for sunset.

The hype

Travelers love the location for island hopping but are divided on whether the cheap price justifies the noise and grime.

Reality check

The 'infinity pool' photos are real, but the pool belongs to the restaurant in front, meaning you're sunbathing in a public dining area, not a private hotel oasis.

  • You are a backpacker on a strict budget
  • You want to roll out of bed and onto a dive boat
  • You thrive in social, busy atmospheres and sleep like the dead

I am a light sleeper. Please assign me a cottage as far back from the restaurant and road as possible, preferably in a quiet corner of the garden.

Pogosta vprašanja in skriti nasveti

Vse, kar res želiš vedeti, preden rezerviraš.

Is there a pool?

Yes, but it's technically the restaurant's infinity pool. Hotel guests can use it, but expect to share the space with diners.

How far is it from the port?

Extremely close. It's about a 4-5 minute walk from the Banjar Nyuh / Toyapakeh pier.

Is breakfast included?

Usually yes, served a la carte (American or Asian options) at the Ba Bar Kitchen.

Is the WiFi good for working?

No. Reviews consistently cite speeds around 1-2 Mbps. Use a local SIM card (Telkomsel) instead.

Are the rooms clean?

Hit or miss. While some find it acceptable, there are persistent complaints about moldy smells, dust, and stained linens.

Is there hot water?

Yes, but the supply can be inconsistent and the water is often slightly salty.


Notranji Nasveti

  • The restaurant makes a decent pizza if you're too tired to hunt for food.

  • Rent a scooter directly from the property to avoid port hagglers, but check the brakes first.

  • Walk to the nearby 'Warung Tu Pande' for better, cheaper local food.

5 stvari, ki jih morate vedeti, preden greste

  • 💡The 'garden view' is mostly just the path between other cottages.

  • 💡You might find small dead flies on the sheets—housekeeping isn't hospital-grade.

  • 💡The bathroom is 'semi-open' style in some units, inviting bugs in.

  • 💡The AC struggles to cool the wooden cottages during midday heat.

  • 💡The vibe is more 'hostel with private rooms' than 'hotel'.
