This place is amazing.

Beautiful and secluded stay!

This place sure is beautiful. Very open and well maintained. Peaceful and exotic.

Wonderfull house with a beautifull view and an amazing swing. We had a dream experience in a dream wood house. The decor, the conditions, the housekeeper, everything was great. Perfect house for people who wants to feel the Bali spirit and relax. I recommend for sure.

This was one of our most favorite places in Bali and also of AirBNB. The house itself is amazing and the views are better than the pictures make them look. It is a little bit of a trek to get to Ubud - but we really enjoyed being in the village away from the busy town and the house and view were so perfect that we tried to stay on the property as much as possible. There was a number to call if you wanted some basic indonesian food brought to the house, which we thought was pretty fun. I would definitely stay here again if we can make it back to Bali!

The views will leave you speechless. You'll get up close and personal with the creatures of the area but it's completely worth it for the accommodation. Wonderful amenities in the home and would definitely stay here again!

This place is really worth the price :)

This place is truly one of a kind - you will have uninterrupted jungle views and nature sounds all round. You can truly escape into this beautiful hideaway - hanging in the hammock reading a book or just watching the world go by. I loved the wabisabi style of decor of this place - its very spacious and well equipped. I stayed here on my own - and night times was a bit of 'facing my fears' kind of time, with the property being pretty much open to the elements. But falling asleep to the lovely nature sounds was very soothing, waking up for sunrise is a must! There is a deck with some chairs and a good spot for slowly taking in the break of day. Nika was very easy to communicate with and always responded promptly to any questions I had. This place is a good 20 minutes from Ubud, so you would need a scooter or driver. I asked Wayan a couple of times to drive me around, both by scooter and car - and it was easy to arrange a pick up from Ubud again later the same day. Both Wayan and his wife Ketut were lovely and very friendly and accommodating at all times. All in all a wonderful magical place to experience - oh and that swing! You have to try it out! Amazing feeling, with the world at your feet!

De verhuurder haalde de taxi op en verwelkomde ons met thee en koffie. In de avond een heerlijke maaltijd. We waren er te kort!

Magnifique maison posée au milieu des rizières. Très belle déco. Ambiance de charme. On est au calme sans être isolé, quelques maisons à proximité. Ubud est à 10 mn en scooter, quelques centaines de mètres de chemin caillouteux avant de rejoindre la route. Enfin le diner et petit déj sont parfaits et l'accueil très pro. Une bonne adresse.

We had a wonderful time staying in the Villa. The manager Putu was very welcoming and upon arrival got us immediately set up to climb the volcano and have dinner made for us in the villa. The setting is very nice, the rice fields and ducks and the house dog Nikita were all awesome. The sunrises and sunsets are amazing here along with just the villa in general. The villa and gardens are immaculately kept by the great staff but even more important was how good the food was. If you request it they send a local woman to the villa to cook for you and not only are they very kind and welcoming people they are also amazing cooks and it was well worth the price. All I got to say is that Sugi's Balinisian Pancakes have both my girlfriend and my heart. Overall we had a great time staying here and we would recommend it to anyone looking for a place that is a little outside of the hustle and bustle of Ubud.

My boyfriend and I spent 2 nights in this lovely villa and we really enjoyed the experience. The place is in the middle of the rice field, it s very quiet and beautiful. It makes you feel that you just want to stay there and enjoy the view and the nice villa. The pictures dont lie and the design and decoration are great. If you want to visit Ubud I advice you to rent a scooter, we choose to walk, it s doable but tiring!! The breakfast was very nice ( i love the lemongrass ginger tea!) and prepared on request. Made was very helpful, friendly and welcoming. He called us a few times and came to visit us to make sure everything was fine. It was nice to chat with him and discuss about Indonesian and Balinese culture. Other than Made,Dewa,the driver was very friendly and helpful to us. He told us a lot of stories and traditions of Bali. Dont hesitate, this place will definitely makes your stay wonderful!!

Good experience to live in such a amazing house!

Me and my boyfrienda stayed in Benu house for 6 nights, and could not be any happier with our choice!!Waking up to quite surroundings and beautiful ricefields with your morning coffee, is an out of yourself experience. The house is stunningly beautiful, and the location is really nice and quite, (But only 7 min to Ubud center with a scooter). We Could not be any more satisfied with the service we recieved from Made and the rest of the staff. They were always making sure we had what we needed, and were so caring and friendly. The house was cleaned every day, and we also had breakfast served every morning by the two ladies working at Benu house. We are definately coming back! So grateful

most amazing place to be! everything was perfect as picture. really enjoyed my time here :) diffidently coming back.

The villa is unique, in the middle of nature. The dining table spot is very windy, u can book for local food dinner and watch the sun setting at villa, it is amazing and the food is quite nice. The book the driver through out this trip, he is funny, humorous and can communicate English well, his wife is the one who cook breakfast and dinner. The breakfast is authentic balinese food, but we didn't get use to this kind of food for BF so we didn't eat much. The room is comfortable but quite hot eve though Made gave us 2 fans. Last night before we leave, we were shocked with big gecko in the villa under the sink, luckily we were be able to lock it in the drawer then next morning the gardener take it away. I would say if u wanna touch balinese local life i would recommend this villa.

Amazing host, incredibly responsive. Met all our needs and answered all our questions. Highly recommend hiring her brother as your personal driver/tour guide. They are an amazing team with endless hospitality.

We had a fabulous experience staying at Iluh's house in the Ubud area. we loved being in a real village and amongst the rice fields. We particularly enjoyed walking around the many paths and found some great little eating places, namely The yellow flower, Lala lily and Made's Warung. The actual house is just as gorgeous as it appears in the photos and all communications were straightforward and prompt with the host. we would definitely stay there again!

Staying at this beautiful, secluded villa is a good way for the more adventurous and "seasoned" traveler to experience living in Bali.

This place is a gem. It really is as beautiful as shown in the pictures and the lovely staff kept it clean every day. For our arrival we followed the advise to get a driver from Iluh with knowledge of the location, what really helped. The place is hidden away from the main road and otherwise would have been hard to find. Once you know where it is, it's easy to get around. We enjoyed relaxing massages on the deck, ask the lady at the front desk for her friend to get you a massage- bliss, layzy ours in the hammock and recharging moments in the cooling plunge pool. Ubud and its beautiful area around is on the door steps and certainly worthwhile exploring. Iluh is super friendly, accommodating and never intrusive. She welcomed us and left us a cell phone so we could contact her if we needed some help or advise for a driver, a massage , etc. This is a brilliant arrangement and assured us to always get the best local knowledge and advise. We would definitely come back here anytime.

The house was gorgeous and in a lovely peaceful part of ubud, it really was tranquility. We enjoyed exploring the area, eating delicious local food and long walks just as much as we enjoyed our quiet time in the house. Iluh and Evelyn were very helpful, we had everything we needed and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

We had a pleasant experience staying at this home. Not only is it in a fantastic location, it swarms with tranquility, vibrancy and peace. A great place to stay if you are wanting a respite from the busy world. One of the most secluded rice field accommodations you will find that is still close enough to enjoy the centre of Ubud and various restaurants and shops close by. Right out front of the walkway is a beautiful vegan raw food restaurant, The Alchemy which I highly recommend along with the amazing Eve Day Spa and Meditation Centre. I will definitely be coming back here!

Great location and family! Perfect place to relax away from Ubud's busy main road and near enough to enjoy the vibrations. We live vegan&organic - also therefore right in the center. Highly recommended!

My husband and I had such a wonderful stay at Iluh's villa in Penestanan. The space was beautiful and clean and the location was incredible. It's within walking distance to so many great places- Yellow Flower Cafe, Intuitive Flow Yoga, Alchemy restaurant, Ubud's city (URL HIDDEN) easy to get around. Iluh provided a cell phone for us to make local calls and to call her if we needed anything. She arranged a reasonably priced driver for us when we needed a driver for a full day. And the villa was cleaned every morning. The staff was super friendly and we appreciated everything they did for us to make our stay enjoyable. We will definitely recommend this villa to our friends traveling to Ubud. Thank you, Iluh!

Prachtige plek in het midden van een rijstveld, het restaurant dat ernaast ligt is ook geweldig, heeft organic food en doet me denken aan Tomorrowland. Jammer dat we vroeger zijn moeten vertrekken door de hevige regen/storm.

Wat een paradijsje! Leuk concept met de Dome, even wennen maar geweldige ervaring! Back to nature Eten en drankjes waren ook top, wij eten graag vlees en drinken graag een glaasje en dat hebben ze hier allebei bewust niet maar dat hebben mijn man en ik geen seconde gemist! Echt Een aanrader!

I would have never expected what I found at the new haven. The amethyst dome was an amazing green little piece of paradise. I posted a video on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) and people were as amazed as I was. The restaurant was beautiful and the selection of health food was incredible. If you go near Ubud you need to stay here. Lodra the host was an exceptional human being. He helped us get transportation and a fast boat for a great price! I was truly blown away by this place.

We also stayed at Amethyst Crystal dome. The dome is like a place you see in the same photographs. The first day we went, there was a problem with the water. We could not use the sink and shower. They provided us with another place to take a shower and the next day they solved the water problem. The dome we stayed in was very close to the Akasha Restaurant. The design of the restoran was great. All the employees were very respectful and friendly. We heard the sounds of roosters in the mornings because the house was in rice fields. We were very pleased with your stay. It's a place I want to go back to. We thank you for everything :)

amazing place!!! staff, food, decor and service were excellent! stayed in the amethyst crystal dome, which was better than we could have imagined. lovely private eco lodge with outdoor shower and shmick composting toilet. wifi controlled lighting, double bed upstairs in beautifully constructed bamboo hut complete with sky light. not to mention the veggie/ vegan food at the restaurant and the decor and ambiance around the place! very much enjoyed our short stay here, would deffo return

My husband and I stayed in the crystal dome for three nights last week. What an incredible experience. We have stayed in places all over the world but none quite as unique as this. The dome is simply beautiful, almost as if it grew out of the ground. You are completely immersed in nature and the true essence of Bali. Waking up to the noises of all the animals and the rice field workers is something I'll never forget. Truly magical, thanks Brian and team for a wonderful stay!! Oh and for those needing a connection to the outside world-there is high speed wifi in the dome, and a team of people at the end of a phone or a short walk away to help answer any questions, or aid you in any way at all. Great service, thank you!!

We felt very welcome upon arriving at the Dome. Our driver was punctual and very kind, and we were met with refreshments upon arrival. They left us with a phone so we were able to reach them if we needed anything. The breakfast was delicious, the staff was friendly, and the bed and sheets were clean and comfortable. However, the dome does not have a door, so stray dogs and cats come and go freely. You cannot leave any trash or dishes in the dome because the dogs will fight over it in the living room. Large lizards, frogs, and spiders live in the Dome, and there were wasps' nests in both the dome and the bathroom. The Dome is also very isolated. This was fine, but make sure you are prepared to arrange transportation or rent a motorbike, because there is nowhere to buy food nearby. These things made our stay more uncomfortable than we expected it to be. This might be a fun stay for one or two nights if your expectations are realistic and you understand that you will be in an isolated area with animals coming and going. All in all, it was a unique experience but we would probably not stay here again.

that was wonderful to stay here. at night u can hear cricket sing a song for you, a thousand star become your roof. it was wonderful place to seek a peace and nature.

Es waren traumhafte Tage. Obwohl wir durch die guten Bewertungen schon hohe Erwartungen hatten, wurden diese dennoch übertroffen. Es hat einfach alles von vorne bis hinten gestimmt. Wir würden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen, dann aber nicht nur 4 Tage!

The villa is amazing, pictures do no justice. Very secluded but the host and his staff were very helpful in finding the location. Agung was so sweet, and very helpful. The breakfast was impeccable. So very pleased with this villa, I will definitely be recommending and stay here on my time vacation back in Bali.

When we walked into the villa we were amazed at how beautiful it was. The staff were so friendly and helpful too! Honestly wish we had booked for longer....will definitely be back!!

Although this place is out of Ubud Centre, and about 400m from the main road. but the host is very responsive and ready to provide guidance. The Villa is new and clean. It's surrounded by small forest and padi field. The two helpers not only do the daily cleaning and prepare breakfast, they are able to provide information on transport, itinerary etc... The villa and its surrounding will let you have a sense of quietness and peacefulness.

Irwan was a very nice guy and arranged everything that we were hoping for. He picked us up from the airport. The villa was amazing! The view, the rice fields, the rooms and bathroom, spectacular! Would love to come back!

Lovely place and a very nice host! We had a great time. Wish we could have stayed much longer. Everything looks like the pictures. Recommended!

The villa is exactly as in the pictures. It is spacious and clean and very well looked after. If you are not a fan of nature, however, I would advise to stay elsewhere. The location is VERY REMOTE and you'll need a taxi to come and go. Plus you'll be surrounded by geckos, frogs, cows, crickets and even some cockroaches. Most of the bugs make a lot of NOISE so you might have be awaken by that. Food options in the evening are a bit of a challenge; there are a couple of places you could order from but we involved the manager in the ordering (who obliged) because we wouldn't be able to describe the location to the restaurant otherwise. The linen was clean but STAINED and could use with getting replaced more often. BREAKFAST is ok but basic. The POOL is very nice and a great place to chill out. Be aware, however, that there are CAMERAS everywhere in the villa. We spotted about 5 CCTV cameras. They point to the doors and I am sure they are for security but it gives you the feeling you are constantly watched and I couldn't relax. PRIVACY is generally a concern with this property. The manager, Wayan, and other staff was coming and going without knocking or any prior notice. We asked twice to be given more privacy and pointed out that there were too many people in our villa. The two times we asked for a driver, the driver was invited in by the manager and the second time he was showing him around the villa while we were there. We had 1 hour left to check out and the manager was already having people come around to clean and do some gardening. I had to complain for them to give us some space to prepare for our departure. The place is very nice but we felt crowded by the manager and would probably not return for the lack of privacy. Finally, we asked for some help to book FERRY TICKETS to Gili T and we were told that if we wanted to book with Blue Water Express we had to do it ourselves (we asked for help because we had issues with their website). Essentially we were pushed to book with another less reputable company called Semaya One because that's who the manager had ties with. The manager insisted it was because all other boats were booked but we got the impression that this was not necessarily true and we were pushed into buying tickets from his mate. It was rather frustrating and stressful.

Such a beautiful and secluded villa. The perfect hideaway in secluded rice fields! Would recommend, and would definitely stay again!

Beste , voor ons was het volledig huis van voor tot achter zoals het wordt voorgesteld , dus super mooi ! Heel goede ontvangst en ook de twee personeelsleden Wayan & Kadek stonden voor alles klaar en waren super vriendelijk en behulpzaam . Een absolute aanrader , met prachtige tuin en uitzicht op de onderliggende rijstvelden , super bedankt voor alles . Nele , Mady & Ivo

De villa is net vernieuwd en is enorm uxe met zeer goede kwaliteit meubels, apparatuur en afwerking. De aanwezige staf is enorm behulpzaam. Het weidse uitzicht is zo mooi dat je ubud niet meer in wil en je volledig in de watten laat leggen in de villa. Een aanrader!

House + staff : 2 thumbs up!

Unser Aufenthalt in der Villa Satori dauerte leider nur 3 Tage, wir wären gerne länger geblieben. Die Unterkunft ist wunderbar und der Ausblick aus dem Pool auf die Reisfelder einfach einzigartig. Vor unsere Ankunft wurden wir bereits reichlich mit Informationen eingedeckt und auch während unserem Aufenthalt wurden wir von Wayan und ihrem Team bestens umsorgt. Nicht umsonst handelt es sich bei Satori um einen Superhost :)

Villa Sattori is a great place to stay in Bali. Easy walk to Ubud center, Monkey Forest, Ubud Market and Palace during the day and easy to reach by foot some good places to eat at night. The highlight of the villa are Wayan and Dewa. Wayan is sweet and helpful and prepares delicious breakfasts and Dewa is always ready to take you to wonderful places, he walked us trough the countryside, took us visit a local family who invited us to come back to a ceremony later that day...He took us to a big ceremony at a temple, dressed all of us up with sarongs and head bands of his own. He just picked the best spots and took us everywhere with him as locals. Wayan and Dewa were on call 24/7 ... Wayan even called us once when she worried because we hadn't come back in time during of a heavy rain, she arranged for us to be picked up and taken back to Sattori!!! We are very grateful, this house was the perfect pick!!! Mark was also great to me since the first mail and kept in touch during our whole stay. Thanks Mark!!!

Our stay at Satori was fantastic! We were looked after so well, and the villa was every bit as beautiful as the photos. The 5 star resorts in Nusa Dua do not come close to the hospitality and accommodations that Satori provides. We have already recommended to friends and family, and will most certainly be back!

Our short stay at this amazing accomodation was truly remarkable. Our children got the real taste of Bali and the staff were just wonderful. The accomodation itself is beautiful, clean and breathtaking. I cannot wait to visit again and next time it will be for a longer stay.

The property was just wonderful. Mark had been in touch through email to make me feel very secure about all the plans and transport to get there which was really positive and I am very grateful for this! The villa itself is on a well known road for any taxis, but once you're inside it is literally the most peaceful haven you can imagine. The view is spectacular and the villa is sprawling; so much bigger than expected. The bedrooms are airy and beautiful, the outside bathroom is just so special and the lounge area is stunning. The housekeepers are very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast pancakes were amazing! We loved that absolutely everything was catered for- towels, toiletries, multiple sockets, air con, sunloungers, take-away menus for lovely places nearby, a phone to be in direct contact with the recommended driver. We felt incredibly lucky to stay in this place, it felt a bit like a dream to be honest. We had a private yoga session in the studio above, walked along the road to a stunning art museum and had a chilled night swimming in the infinity pool then watching House of Cards (dvd provided in the library!!!) with amazing food delivered from a local restaurant- perfection! This villa is well worth a visit

Uitzicht is geweldig!! De villa is super; groot, schoon en alles is aanwezig. En dan de schommel... my god!! Zo tof om te doen En wayan de housekeeper en zijn vrouw regelen alles voor je! Hele lieve en aardige mensen. En de driver is ook top! Brengt je overal heen, en staat altijd voor je klaar. Bij wayan lekker een scooter regelen en dan ubud inrijden. Helemaal perfect. Zou zeker nog een keer terug gaan en dan langer blijven in de villa!

Our stay at the Zen Hideaway was a fantastic experience and very memorable. It was wonderful to wake up and be with nature. The sunrises were unforgettable. The house was everything we imagined and more thanks to the unreal views. As a family who typically stays at 5 star resorts this was exactly what we needed to mix things up a bit and really focus on spending time with one another, and connecting with the culture on different level. Nika was an incredible host and helped us sort out everything from airport transfer to an emergency hospital visit. I highly encourage staying at this gem of a place.

Our stay in the zen hideaway was perfect in each and every way!! Being in the hideaway with the stunning view and villa feels like a fairytale. The swing, of course, is lovely. But also the villa, and how every detail in the villa is build with so much thought surprised us every day again. Nika and her friend made sure we felt at home, being available for questions or just a chat at every time. Lovely people who run this place with their heart! The neighbor taxi was the sweetest, brought us to see beautiful waterfalls. His scooter rent was great too, and everything for a good price. The hideaway might be a bit far from ubud etc., but the trip trough the villages was great every time. Seeing the local people doing the daily stuff like walking with giant pigs, beautiful ceremonies and people carrying the everything they own, or their hole family on just one scooter. Without a doubt best place we've ever been, hope to get back here some day!

!WOW! just so much wow. This place is beyond any expectation and it is truly an once in a lifetime experience. If you find it available -> BOOK it!!! We found zen hideaway #2 better than #1 as it has THE view. The swing is right in front of the porch and the feeling while swinging on it is beyond words. Breakfast and cooked meals can be ordered with locals and will be brought to you, so you will not have to leave this place. And believe me, you won't want to. We had absolutely no problems/encounters with insects, mosquitos, bugs etc. So don't let the open space idea scare you! A HUGE thank you to Airbnb, Nika and Pak for making this experience possible. We will be back!

The house is in a beautiful setting with glorious views. The house is also very unusual and 'ethnic'. It really gives you the sense of being somewhere else and of living a more simple and traditional lifestyle. The host is courteous and helpful. She lives next door and was available when needed but did not intrude. There are a couple of small shops opposite the house and they can provide some basic essentials. The host makes it obvious that this house is not for everyone. It is open to the elements and has basic facilities.

This place is MINDBLOWING. Truly one of the coolest places I've ever stayed. The entire place is open to the air except for one room, and the view from the back looks over a massive canyon with a waterfall and terraced rice paddies. Really, words can't accurately convey how beautiful this place is. Our host Nika was friendly, welcomed us at the entrance and let us in, then gave us a quick tour before leaving to go next door. We all took turns on the swing which hangs between two palm trees and, yes, swings over a cliff like the pictures show. You might have to work up the courage to use it, but believe me, it's worth it. The beds are really comfy and the kitchen is super cool. We spent some time making food and just hanging out. Kitchen has just about everything you need. The outdoor shower is pretty awesome as well. This place looks super cool at night, but during the day is when it's best since you have such a nice view. As for the mosquitos: The bugs weren't bad but for sanity's sake I do recommend bringing bug spray/lotion as there are no mosquito nets on the beds. There is organic bug lotion in the kitchen in case you don't have any available. There were four of us and we didn't receive any bites. We stayed at 6 places in Bali and this was our favorite! Just do it.

聽說我們是亞洲第一組客人;其實蠻開心的!能在無窗無門的大自然中生活真的非常棒、鞦韆也非常的刺激好玩、房間內的吊床以及吧台座位也是鞦韆這些設計、讓我們也非常開心!非常推薦大家來住住看!

Nikas place is truly amazing. We're still blown away by the location and design of the house. Super comfy beds, great shower and wifi. We found it really handy having our own scooters to pop down the road for supplies and yum local food.

Meg was so helpful from the get go. Great communication, prompt replies and easily teachable during our stay. The place is perfect. Our group felt completely at ease and the girls were so lovely and great with our younger children. We loved it all. Can't wait to return!

The house is beautiful, with careful thought paid to details, a spacious and lofty feel, and rustic interior look. Yet the atmosphere living here is very warm and friendly, all thanks to Megan and her wonderful family and staff. I really enjoyed staying here. Megan was super friendly from day one, and very helpful in trying to accommodate my needs in every possible way (she even let me change rooms so I could access a more serene backyard setting). The staff is amazing - Madeh and Wayan both cooked super delicious meals for me; I especially loved the steamed veggies and omelettes. I spent a lot of time relaxing at home, but also at the Yoga Barn. As long as you have a scooter or a driver it is pretty easy to get around and into Ubud. Wayan (the gardener) and I had some fun trips on the scooter to Ubud. I also I did a 3-day detox and could not have wished for a more supportive environment. The only thing I really missed was some air-con in the kitchen/open space area, and some soft cushions for the beautiful Bali-crafted wooden sun-beds! I would definitely recommend Megan’s home.

This place was ideal for our family of 12. We all slept well in the AC rooms and had plenty of space to spread out. The staff was very knowledgeable with any request we had and arranged everything we asked with no hassle. If we come back to Ubud, it will be here for sure!

We stayed for 5 nights at this beautiful NYC style villa during early August, with 7 adults and 3 young boys under the age of 9. The place was absolutely fantastic, from having the local driver Allo pick us up from the airport (and doing a lot of other driving for us as well) to having the local women Kadek, Made and Wayan looking after us with incredible home-cooked meals for breakfast and dinner. Not only was the food better than anything else we had during out stay in Bali, but it was half the price of what you'd pay at a restaurant in the main towns. Megan was very quick in getting back to us and was incredibly welcoming to their home and the rooms were perfect for all of us. You are at the back of a family compound, so be prepared to have the local kids coming over to say hi and ask to swim in the pool. This was the only thing that was a touch frustrating as they would try asking most days. Otherwise, it was a picturesque location and can't wait to head back here again!

We stayed as a large group for my 40th birthday for 9 days! The House: Is spectacular, the photos really do not do it justice. You can feel the warmth & creativity that went into the design & building. The pool was clean & we were very grateful for it. Someone cleaned it each day & checked the levels. We had 4 families stay (7 adults & 4 kids) at the home & all have differing needs & expectations & no one was let down. all of the downstairs bedrooms have locking doors, ensuite, air-conditioning & really comfy beds. The bathrooms are outside & some are more secluded than others, one had a persistent chicken visitor & one has a house window with a view of the toilet & shower to be mindful of. if this is an issue however there is a main bath that is very private. there was a security man who checked in on us over night & was lovely, we always felt very safe. My partner & i stayed upstairs with my daughter with all the windows open & used the fans & mozzie nets, it was beautiful & exactly what we love. it was balmy at night but more than bearable. Being upstairs was like being in a cubby house & we always knew everything that was going on downstairs. Some wouldn't like this lack of privacy & increase foot traffic & noise but we loved it. The staff: Also is the resident driver & we was so helpful & patient & available. nothing we asked for was too much trouble & he even organised a motorbike ride for my birthday when my 11 year old asked him to do so as a surprise & then wouldn't accept her money as payment. absolute legend! Wayan & Ketut inside the house were also amazing! they made us breakfast each day & cleaned the house even when we said they didn't need too :) I took some clothes for their families from Australia & they were so appreciative & showed me photos of their children & nerves in my daughters second hand clothes. I strongly suggest others consider taking things to Bali for this purpose. The girls made me a birthday cake when my friends requested it & this was one of the best cakes I have ever eaten. The village:The house is situated in rice fields & in a village, near a school & other accomodation. we purchased drinks & food from the warring 2 doors up & this family were super grateful & again suggest you consider doing this also, the children loved practicing their english & teaching us their names & playing with our children. We often went for walks around the home & were always met with smiling faces! there is also a laundry 50 meters away that is very cheap so you can head home with freshly washed & ironed clothes :) Ubud: ASK Megan for recommendations! ask Wayan & ask...

Beautiful house, we lived 10 days with all doors and windows opened in the rice fields. Beautiful space. The swimming pool is great to cool down, and very kid friendly (accessible only after a flight of stairs reachable from the house, and slow slope). The staff was very helpful, great with the kids, and our requests weren't easy ones as we had different needs being 8 adults, 2 toddlers, 1 baby, and as it was on a special event (New Years). The grilled pork came out delicious!! Megan had everything ready for us: baby beds, food and drinks to start with at our arrival, she helped us get transport from the airport. She was super helpful to answer all our questions prior to the trip. We had a great stay and would definitely go back or recommend it!!

Wow, what a magical place. The house and setting is just incredible. All the staff are lovely too. We had so many laughs with the driver Allo, and it was actually quite hard to say goodbye. Included in the house is a black book of things to do in Ubud with a really comprehensive list of places to eat. This was a nice touch and we found it really useful. A truly memorable experience. Thank you for having us Megan, I hope to be back one day soon!

This is a beautiful location I loved EVERYTHING about the place and our stay there and would love to revisit to stay longer! Thankyou also to the gorgeous staff Made' and Wayan they are beautiful souls and make delicious omelettes ! :)

Erg primitief en niet schoon. Locatie is zeker uniek maar je moet niks verwachten. In de avond beesten in je hutje en douchen etc is erg openbaar. De natuur is prachtig maar comfortabel vond ik het niet

We hebben een nacht in het hoogste bamboo nest (4) geslapen en een nacht in de lodge. Ik wist dat het hoog zo zijn, maar het was hoger dan ik had verwacht. In het begin vond ik het dan ook dood eng en vroeg ik of we in een lager nest konden slapen. Helaas allemaal vol. Uiteindelijk toch doorgezet en absoluut geen spijt! Wat een bijzondere ervaring! Wel alleen voor echte avonturiers. Ik raad aan om in het tweede of derde bamboonest te gaan slapen, dit is veiliger. De nacht in de eco lodge was eveneens geweldig! Ik was wel blij dat we met zijn tweeen waren, want het zit best afgelegen en iedereen kan bij wijze van spreken binnen komen. 'S nachts werden we nog wakker van de huiskat die had bedacht tussen ons in te gaan slapen... moet je dus wel tegen kunnen ;)

Je moet echt heel avontuurlijk zijn Geen hoogtevrees hebben en niet bang zijn om te vallen, in een afgrond te vallen en je laatste adem uit te blazen. Wij hebben hier dus niet geslapen ivm de slechte fundering en de rechte bamboe buis met inkepingen, dat is je trap, naast een afgrond van ong 10 meter. Zo avontuurlijk zijn we dus niet. Liever safe en levend dan door de afgrond in vallen. Service etc is goed.

Unforgettable experience. Be prepared to become one with the nature. Sunrises are priceless over looking magnificent rice fields.

This place was amazing. Most unique place I've ever been. Definitely felt deep in the jungle, but very close to everything. So great, gracious hosts. Awesome place.

The service staff are incredibly kind and helpful. Its definitely a fun an interesting exp i would recommend. Any one travelling there should be aware that the location can be a bit hard to find n call for clear directions.

This was such a great place, the host was very welcoming, there was a beautiful public lounge area with free water, tea and coffee, food and other drinks were also available for a small price. It was a great place to be as a traveler by myself as I immediately met new people there. The surrounding area was beautiful and relaxing. It was 10 min walk away from centre Ubud, but it felt like being in the country side. The room was as described: high up in a bamboo tower, separate traditional toilet and shower, steep bamboo ladder and small room space with a double mattress. There was electricity in the room. There was also people staying in the room below me, meaning the tower moved a little whenever they climbed up or down. It might not be for everyone but I thought it was a beautiful experience and would recommend it to everybody!

Really unique lodging. Do not rent if have fear of heights! Kind of out of the way (have to walk in and out). Lounge area and breatfast great. Amazing value.

I really enjoyed my stay in Gede Agung's guesthouse. It is just off Monkey Forest road, but still located between rice paddies! Breakfast is not included, but for a small fee you can order breakfast, which will be served on your balcony. Please note that the location given by Airbnb on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps is not correct, the description however is. If you put the name of the place directly on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps, it is correct as well.

Easy to access, beautiful and calm location. Really enjoyed my 1 night stay in Ubud. Would definitely recommend!

I totally recommand! The host is super friendly and Will help you in every way! The rooms are clean and spacious, very Nice balcony overlooking the rice terrasses. You can rent motorbikes but everything is very close by foot: Nice places to eat, market, temples, monkey forest... It is located in à quiet street in the City Center!

Some insects but Really great place, very well located. Beautiful room. Very good value for money

Schönes Privatzimmer mit Veranda, sehr zentral gelegen. Tausende Möglichkeiten zum Essen direkt in der Straße und nur 10 min zu Fuß zum Monkeyforest!

I travelled to Ubud alone however Dewa his wife and the two young Balinese boys at reception made me feel safe, secure and always left me with a smile on my face! They even took the time to take me to my appointment free of charge so I didn't get lost on a scooter, so I bought us pizzas n ice creams and they were ever so grateful!!! It's an old traditional but very very clean environment and so close to my favourite cafes and yoga:) thank you DEWA, family and boys at reception

Ubud's hidden gem . We had a great stay, the homestay is clean, friendly and incredibly central. The entrance is neatly tucked away so it is easy to escape Ubud's busy centre. Our highlight was the dozens of fireflies every evening dancing about the rice field next to house.

It was really lovely there :) beautiful quiet place in the middle of the Centrum from Ubud :)! We loved it and we would come again !:) thanks for hosting us sooo nice !

Prachtige industriele villa midden tussen de rijstvelden. Heerlijk rustig!

It's great. We felt like in a house in a scary movie without serial killer lol. Amazing place :)

Risyiana's loft was amazing! Very quiet and peaceful location just 5km outside of Ubud centre. The pool was great with a very nice view. The loft is very modern and luxurious. Risyiana and her husband are very nice and helped us a lot with planning the day in Ubud.

We had the most wonderful time and absolutely loved the peaceful & rejuvenating energy of the place. We really didn't want to leave & will definitely visit again on our next trip to Bali. It is amazing to be out of the hustle of Ubud but still a short scooter drive away. Yann was the perfect host too.

Thank you Yann and Risyiana for an incredible stay! We loved your place and you were amazing hosts!! The house was unbelievable, the views were beautiful, secluded but close enough to scooter to enjoy Ubud- would thoroughly recommend and would love to come back and Stay longer! All the best, Maryam and Mark

Risiyiana and her husband were more than accommodating. They showed us how to get to town, hired us mopeds, and told us all the best eats in town! Such an incredible home! Just like the pictures! If you like a good scooter around, this is the place to stay. As its sightly out of central Ubud, it makes for an awesome drive into town around the local areas a lot of tourists wouldn't normally see. If this place isn't booked when you want you go... book it!

This is an amazing house in a secluded private part of ubud 20 mins out of ubud central. Hosts set us up with a super safe driver who took us all over ubud and to our next Airbnb. The space is incredible just like the pictures, and the infinity pool is perfect. Industrial cool at an affordable price it's a must if you visit our ubud. Thanks rhisyana and yaan we would love to come back one day!

One word: perfection. Risyiana's place is absolutely incredible, it is a fantastically designed villa nearby the bustling town of ubud which has great places to eat and explore. Risyiana and her husband recommended food, places to see, things to do, and even arranged taxis and transfers from the airport and to our next location. Super nice people, great to talk to, and amazing hosts in all regards. The house itself is huge with amazing views and a pool to cool off in the warm afternoons. This is a 5 star listing for sure!

Amazingly creative environment, epic scenery and such a beautiful space! Will stay here again, gorgeous. Thank you Rita!

Als je van een rustige knusse plek houdt met een zwembad waar je heerlijk baantjes in kunt trekken, ondertussen genietend van de vogels en de vlinders, is dit je plek. Aan de snelstromende rivier onder de woning staan prachtige bomen en planten. Omdat de rivier in een dal ligt zie je de eekhoorns door de toppen van de bomen springen. Het zwembad is erg lang en je deelt het met hooguit twee andere gasten. Wij huurden de achterste kamer. Deze ligt aan de achterzijde van de woning, erg knus ingericht, wij vonden echter het bed wel aan de smalle kant. Rita weet veel van de buurt, je hoeft haar maar te appen en ze regelt het. Wij raden aan als je daar bent een kijkje te nemen bij Bambu Indah, je kunt daar terecht voor lunch en diner. Allemaal organic, uit eigen groentetuin. Een van de mooiste uitzichten van Ubud, werkelijk een prachtige plek.

Rita and Gregory are fantastic hosts. Very attentive to your questions/requests and have lots of recommendations for dining/sightseeing spots. We'd highly recommend staying at their lovely place.

What should I say!? If you plan to go to Bali and don't stay at Rita's house - bad for you :) Rita and her family are such awesome friendly and lovely characters. They were really great hosts, they really cared a lot and gave me so many tips for travelling around. It really was a lovely experience to have my room at Rita's in ubud. Perfect place to stay, all clean, outstanding organic breakfast with fruits every day. I was truly enjoying every minute there and never had such nice people over airbnb. I just have to recommend everybody who wants to visit Bali to get in touch with this lovely family, their outstanding house nearby the rice terraces and ubud, the cultural heart of Bali which was a perfect place for travelling around. You won't regret it at all.

Rita's humble villa was a nice departure from my regular city life. First of all, Rita and her family were very kind, helpful and engaging. They really did everything they could to make our trip special from setting me up with a wonderful driver and tour guide, to setting up a romantic candle light dinner for my boyfriend and I. I even enjoyed a wonderful four hand massage outside which I would definitely recommend. My only concern was the number of gaps in the villa that let in bugs and the odd frog but this is Bali. Thankfully there was bug spray that was supplied in the room that took care of any pesky bugs. Next time I visit I'd love to stay with Rita again however I would opt for the larger villa.

Lovely traditional house with great scenic view. The helpers and drivers were very helpful and breakfast was delicious! It was a pity that the swimming pool was down when we were there, because it had a great view. We didn't feel like the house was near enough to Ubud centre as it took us about 30mins to walk there. We ended up paying for taxi rides to and fro, but if you can ride a scooter please rent one! It will be much more economical. The restaurants that Rita recommended were fantastic! Food was amazing and so was the scenery. Do note that there is no air-conditioning in the room that we stayed in – just make sure you're ok with it! We didn't see that coming, but the big ceiling fan was good enough for us. Overall, a great place to stay if you're looking for a quiet sanctuary!

We loved our stay with Rita. Everything was perfectly communicated upfront. The view left us speechless. The house is in a quiet part of ubud, with some great restaurants just a few steps away. Rita helped us organise a half day temple / rice field tour and a heavenly four hands massage. Both things were simply perfect. Highly recommended, especially if you're interested in some contemporary Balinese architecture.

Rita was an amazing amazing host (she helped us with all our queries and recommendations on email and was proactive in ensuring our stay was great!) and their staff inclusive of the kitchen staff, drivers and house manager very supportive. The property has beautiful rooms, an amazing view of the river, is very well maintained. We rented scooters from her staff at a reasonable rate (as per the guide shared by Rita) and traveled around to Kintamani (it was an amazing adventure for us :D) as well as to Ubud Central (5-7 minutes away on scooter). Will surely come again and recommend my loved ones here :).

We loved staying in Rita's lovely bungalow - very cozy and clean! Rita was also extremely helpful with organizing trips, drivers, scooters etc. And if you stay there make sure to ask her about the best places for food in Ubud. We loved it - thanks!

A very nice stay in a really nice villa. The rooms were so huge, you could sleep there with 9 people easily. The host took great care of us - professional and uncomplicated. Thank you.

Kadek is a 10/10 host! He went way out of his way to accomodate me and my cousin in Ubud, took us for a huge tour to see waterfalls, temples, coffee plantation and for food. He and the rest of the staff are so friendly, and there was always a flask of hot coffee for us to enjoy. Kadek even drove us to our next destination for a very good price outside of his normal working hours. Highly recommended. The room was also very clean and quiet.

Very comfortable room in a beautiful homestay with a lovely family and property. Very safe, convenient, and relaxing. 5-10 minutes walkable to most things and an easy ride out of town for sightseeing. I will say though, I was surprised by how packed Ubud was considering I stayed there in the low season!

We had a lovely time with Kadek and his family! We had a yummy breakfast every morning and Kadek was always available to answer any questions we had about any tours - he gave us some great options and cheaper deals! The villa is located in a great place- very convenient to get massages, eat and visit Yoga Barn! Thanks Kadek! :)

Kadek's place is really clean, quiet (tucked away on a back street) and in a great location in the centre of ubud. The room was large and really nicely decorated with flowers on the bed. It was cleaned daily and the breakfast was really nice. Would highly recommend!

Sehr schöne und saubere Zimmer. Inmitten eines schönen Gartens mit Familienanbindung.

We loved this homestay. The room and bathroom were huge and very clean. There is no a/c, but the ceiling fan and louvered doors/windows are more than enough to keep you cool. Even though the villa is within walking distance to the busiest street in Ubud (with restaurants and shops galore), it's down a quiet little side street and you don't hear any traffic. The host (and the family) are very friendly and helpful - bringing tea/coffee and breakfast to your private porch each morning. Staying here was the perfect way to grab a little peace and zen in the midst of bustling Ubud.

Just a lovely place to stay. The room is clean, clean, clean. Nice bathroom facilities and plenty of hot water. The families are polite, relaxed and incredibly helpful. You can confidently book this room and be happy. I've stayed in other Ubud listings of the same price range and you get a higher quality room here. It's quiet at night with the only sounds coming from their waterfalls (and they have coy ponds!) and crickets. The only two reasons this room may not be a fit for you is if you need fast wifi here to work etc. They have wifi, but it is not fast enough to stream videos or music and page loading can take a while. Use the internet at Kafe nearby if you need fast wifi. The second is there's no top sheet on the bed if you're a hot sleeper, just the lightweight quilt in the picture.

I absolutely loved staying here! Kadek was a fantastic host, he replied really fast and even organised me a reasonable taxi from my hotel near the airport. The location is lovely, quiet but very close to all that Ubud has to offer. Kadek and his family are incredibly friendly and obliging, the breakfasts were delicious and my room was really clean with a lovely bathroom. I found the wifi signal really strong (for Bali!), I had minimal problems on things like FaceTime and even streaming programs. Definitely recommended!

Een ontzettend leuke ervaring. Een verblijf in greenvillage vergeet je nooit meer! Fantastische architectuur tenmidden van de natuur. Wat afgelegen ligging ... Dwz niet dicht bij ubud maar met driver zeker voldoende te zien in de buurt. Je kan kiezen om zelf te koken, eten te bestellen of natuurlijk uit eten te gaan. Een onvergetelijk verblijf!

Waauw wat een uniek verblijf! Zon zien opkomen alleen al... Ideaal om tot rust te komen!

接待的時候 跟我通信的MAGGIE有來協助我們入住 人很親切 房間也跟網路上的照片一模一樣 整體感覺很棒 只是沒想到地址會這樣偏僻 且回到飯店的路上最後的斜坡實在是令人害怕

So first thing first. The house is as stunning as the pictures suggest. And once you are arrived, it has a magical feel, a uniqueness that makes it eminently worthwhile. Mirna and the housekeeping team are discreet yet helpful and the food absolutely delicious. The vegetables in particular are beyond words. The house was a perfect hub for our arrival and we spend 2 days not doing much apart from marvelling at the property. Also special kudos for the black lava soap and the natural bug repellent, and the quality of the linens, absolutely marvellous. But, and I am very surprised that this hasn't been mentioned more in the comments, there are a few things that are worth criticising, especially considering the very expensive price that is being asked. 1. communication We had issues getting answers from the managers, and as my wife is celiac, we needed some reassurance about food, which arrived pretty late in process. 2. property The pool was out of order and this was communicated to us not before, but casually during our visit. I don't think that's ok. Also, while the house is stunning, the surroundings aren't exactly as pictured on the Airbnb website. Again, nothing majorly wrong with it, but our first impression was a bit of deflation (quickly eliminated by the house and the view)

很特别的体验,非常酷的设计。订了这个房子之后才知道是John Hardy先生的创举。我们还参加了bamboo工厂和green school的参观活动,很棒!

Everyone should sleep at least once in a house like this...a perfect dream (URL HIDDEN) it if you can.

Совершенно фантастический бамбуковый дом. Мы испытали наслаждение, останавливаясь здесь. Единение с природой. Как поход с палатками, только в комфортных условиях. Фото соответствуют реальности. На территории несколько вилл, разных по площади. Но почему то на airnbnb увидела только эту. Мы были с взрослыми детьми (6, 14, 17 лет). Для маленьких детей не безопасно, т.к. открытые пространства и лестницы. Не подходит для лиц с ограниченными возможностями. И для людей, которые боятся насекомых и ночных животных (геконов, летучих мышей и пр). Есть возможность заказать еду. Готовят вкусно. Цены обычные для Бали. Всем остальным очень рекомендую.

La Villa era meravigliosa L'accoglienza e la pulizia veramente ottima Eravamo 7 tra ragazzi ed adulti È stata per tutti una bellissima esperienza Il villaggio è locato nella foresta quindi lontano da tutto Noi siamo stati 2 notti ed abbiamo cenato nella villa perché tornare ad Ubud non è facilissimo Ottimi anche i massaggi C'erano diversi animali innocui , i letti sono protetti da zanzariere, c'è molta umidità Consiglio vivamente di provare questa esperienza!

Wij hebben ons verblijf bij Punia, als zeer prettig ervaren. De locatie is uniek, de villa is heel fijn, en het personeel is geweldig! Wij raden het iedereen aan om deze villa te reserveren.

Wauw! Wat hebben wij een top tijd gehad bij Punia. Het verblijf was een ware luxe. Mooi appartement en super lief en zorgzaam personeel. Ze staan altijd voor je klaar en niets is ze teveel. Iets verder van Ubud centrum af maar daardoor ervaar je een ware rust. Om naar het centrum te komen heeft Punia drivers die je brengen en halen als je wilt en dat alles met een lach!

The Dania cottages were amazing!! Arik, Punia, and all the employees made the experience so memorable. Everyone was so happy, kind, and accommodating. They provided a free shuttle to and from Ubud whenever one wishes, as well as amazing spa services. The villa, pool, and entire complex was perfect. I can't wait to come back! Definitely a highlight of my trip

Words can't begin to describe our stay with Arik and his staff. From the moment we arrived, they were right there to greet us. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of our villa and the Beauty of the entire Balinese compound. It was like a magical jungle oasis. Everything was beautifully kept, immaculately clean and our experience was beyond anything I ever imagined. I felt like royalty. His staff prepare and served us breakfast each morning on our beautiful villa terrace. Arik arranged for hours of pampering, day trips to tour Ubud, and everyone was equally as kind, professional and lovely to meet. We felt more than at home. It was a dream experience for us. I wish everyone could be so blessed to experience being in a place so filled with positive energy and peace. It was perfect. The food, the culture, the people. Thank you. I know I haven't been able to fully address every wonderful thing we enjoyed.

Had a wonderful stay. Arik and the staff were so helpful and always available. They even provided a cell phone to reach them easily. The guest house was beautiful, with breathtaking views. Breakfast was included and was delicious. The pool was also great, with a lovely view. Will definitely stay here again if I'm in Ubud!

The villas are situated north of Ubud Center (which is no problem if you rent a scooter or use the free daily transport). It's a very quiet neighbourhood. The areal itself is a handful of villas surrounding an amazing pool. The staff (like everybody who works there from driver to masseuse) is super helpful and skilled. It's owned by a family who cares about the staff. We've enjoyed the two nights very much! Thanks!

Wonderful place to stay. Staff was warm and incredibly helpful. The room was clean and comfortable and the shuttle to downtown Ubud was GREAT! They even do a welcome drink- yippie!

Punia and his team were wonderful and so helpful. He helped to provide us with a driver to go to the Tegallalang Rice Terraces and the driver made an awesome suggestion to stop by the Kopi Luwat place (I highly recommend). We only stayed one night but they were very accommodating and helpful. Its not close to central ubud but just a short drive away and it was nice to be away from all the traffic and noise.
