East Java: eco lodge

This was my second stay at Pondok Apsari with Ji! I first visited in 2016 and it was amazing to return to this magical spot. The home is very rustic and we feel very lucky to have stayed here twice as it truly is a magical spot and our favourite part of Bali. Ji has ensured that both stays were amazing and we felt lucky to meet with Ji again on our holiday so many years later as he is always amazingly accomodating and a great Balinese guide if you should need!!! We slept on the middle level and could see all the way to the ocean in the morning when we woke and fell asleep to the sparkling city lights of singaraja. We hope we will get to visit this little slice of heaven again!

We had a very nice long stay at Wayam's place. The local family that run this lovely little bnb has been impeccably helpful and sweet, making our journey in nusa area very pleasant. A special thank you for Risa, she has fulfils all our needs with love and a big smile. The place overall it's very cosy and private. The breackfast its basic but made with care. The room it's confortable, clean and the bed it's soft. The out door pool it's nice making the spot more enjoyable. We can definitely reccomend Wayan's bnb.

Очень тихо, завтраки простенькие, вместе с тем вкусные, очень любила с утра пить кофе и смотреть на джунгли на кухне. Очень красивый сад, большой бассейн. Вокруг рисовые поля, каждый день убирали в комнате в комнате. Не далеко варунги с покеболами, так же есть Mango Cafe в 10 минутах ходьбы, там класс повыше, если вы не хотите кушать в варунгах. Очень все понравилось, рекомендую. Персонал дружелюбный. Во круг нет магазинов, только в 15 минутах на байке, но меня это не особо расстраивало. Если вы приехали на Бали не только что бы отдохнуть, но и поработать-отличное место. Иногда интернет барахлил, начинал тормозить всегда в 12 дня почему то. Место-олицитворение Бали

De villa lag in de mooiste tuin die we gezien hebben. Dicht bij t strand waar je ook lekker kan eten. We hebben genoten van de gezelligheid en omgeving en gastvrijheid van Myta. Mooie boottrip gemaakt. Zeker naar Hibiscus house gaan !

This place was just about as good as you can ask for on a trip to Ubud. It had modern elements fused with some rustic elements. Comfortable bed, hot&cold water, internet, cable tv...and nice pools and public sitting areas for all your relaxing needs. For an honest review you should be well aware that you are living with the "jungle" creatures most anywhere you go in Bali. So be prepared for the geckos, marching ants, and the occasional spider. The staff is more than willing and experienced to help if any of these things becomes a dramatic issue. The location is not "in the center of things/Ubud", but honestly its not supposed to be. There are various transport options which are reasonably priced to get you too and from town which is typically a 5-7 minute drive away. The Area is being developed and does need some improvement on road infrastructure but dont let that detract you from choosing this property. The staff do a wonderful job of seeing to your every need and request. The breakfast is good and the restaurant menu options were being updated while we were there which should only add to its improvement. Overall if you want to spend time in Ubud and surrounding areas and you are looking for a relaxing place to begin and end your days, the Monday Villa (or any of the other villas on the property) will easily be a great option.

Beautiful place! So peaceful with all the nature around there. Clean bathroom outdoor. Love the interior of my room which is Aqua room. Very unique n comfy. All the staff really kind and helpful. But there is a room i think above my room, the ceiling made creaking noise everytime those people moved. Suddenly i woke up at 1am till 3am bcs the noises. The noise of creaking was too much n loud. Need one more trash can at room bcs only at the bathroom area. But overall AWESOME! The place near the center. Thank you!

We absolutely loved our stay here. The location was perfect! Nice and quiet but still very central. There were so many nice restaurants near us and supermarkets. You only have to walk maybe 2 minutes from the main road with your bags so that wasn’t an issue at all. 10/10 will recommend to our friends.

Très bon séjour chez Agus. L’accueil est très bien. La chambre était impeccable. Vous pouvez manger directement au restaurant de l’hôtel, la cuisine est très bonne. Commerce à proximité et très facile pour louer un scooter que vous pouvez garer directement devant l’hôtel sur un petit parking privé. À proximité d’Ubud. Très bon endroit pour sortir de la ville et ne pas subir les nuisances sonores. Je recommande à 100%. Merci

Love the view , peacefull ambience , Close to many resto and cafe , the hospitality are top notch! . Definitely will come back !

Der Besuch war magisch. Die Abholung vom Flughafen hat funktioniert und ich wurde wundervoll von der Familie empfangen. Dewu war hilfsbereit und sehr zuvorkommend. Das kleine Häuschen war wunderschön und paradiesisch. Ich hatte den Garden Room und der Ausblick von meinen Häuschen war wirklich atemberaubend. Jeden Morgen gab es hausgemachtes balinesisches Frühstück aufs Zimmer serviert. Das Essen war sehr lecker. Die Ausflüge die ich mit Dewu waren wunderschön. Da ich alleine am reisen bin, war es gut einen Guide an seiner Seite zu haben, der alles erklären kann. Ausserdem machte er wunderschöne Videos und Fotos von mir. Da diese Unterkunft eher etwas ländlicher liegt und nicht direkt im Zentrum, kann man sich da super entspannen und runterkommen. Es gibt einen Pool wo man sich abkühlen kann. Ich bin super zufrieden mit meinem Aufenthalt. Es gab auch immer die Möglichkeit Dinner aufs Zimmer zu bekommen. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist super.

Tout était parfait, le personnel est très réactif et très agréable. Ils ont été aux petits soins tout au long de notre séjour

We had a fabulous stay Terra Clementia a new and unique property which is located only a short walk away from beautiful tropical beaches. Turn left or right of the main beach to discover many secluded sandy coves following the coastal tracks. The accommodation has been designed to blend with the lush tropical landscape creating a peaceful and secure location to explore from. The host is a good communicator ready to assist should you need additional information before or during your stay. The staff who live nearby are friendly and helpful. If you plan to visit Watu Karung, Terra Clementia is the place to stay.

This place is 10/10! Our stay here was everything and more. The host was extremely responsive and helpful, even setting an itinerary for us. The place is located just outside of the city center, but it was very easy to get a cheap, quick scooter or car ride wherever we wanted to go. The scenery is beautiful. We can’t say enough great things about this place! We hope to come back again in the future.

This is such a special place to stay in Amed! We stayed in the room that had a little deck with a view of the ocean. And while the deck does look right onto the restaurant patio, it still feels special to have our own place to sit and listen to the waves. It’s a beautiful hotel, but what makes it extra special is the kind, patient and observant staff. Every single person that helped us at the hotel was so sweet and wonderful and two of the staff members even offered to give us a ride on their motorbikes when we needed to go to a place that was further than walking distance and no taxis were available. They lent us helmets and drove us safely to our destination, and then picked us up on the other end. We cannot recommend this place highly enough! That said, it's worth noting that the Amed streets are currently under construction (adding sidewalks and drainage). We found walking along the beach to nearby establishments to be more pleasant.

This family and their hospitality is easily one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. From the greetings to the goodbye, I didn’t want to leave ! The place is private, exquisitely beautiful, and the FOOD was AMAZING. The fresh ingredients and detail to each dish was absolutely to die for. I’m such a foodie, that I can say this was not basic and such a reasonable price for FRESH ingredients. I would 1000% recommend and I WILL be returning when I come back to Bali. The place is a little hard to get to- BUT worth it, and they reached out with directions that made it easy to find! Other than that, perfection ! Thank you Ludo Stephanie and Mano

The place is absolutely beautiful, very peaceful, very private, with great view. The private pool is amazing and the hot tub too. Im sure you cant get anything better for the amazing price. The host went beyond expectations. They put flowers for us everywhere, something that we didn’t expect. Also they took our laundry to the laundry service nearby. Excellent host, excellent place!!

Exceptional value for money. Loved the outdoor shower, great water pressure & just felt lovely to shower in nature. Got used to the outdoor bathroom pretty quickly! Breakfast was amazing, good choices & portions that they bring to you each morning at your requested time to have on the porch. Very quiet & tranquil. Good location away from busy Ubud and with restaurants near by. Would recommend needing a scooter through which they can provide. Very good & would visit again no hesitation.

Endroit agréable ! Atypique! Fantastique ! Nous avons passé deux nuits sur place et tout s’est très bien passé. Le Staff est vraiment top. Le petit déjeuner est top aussi avec différents choix. Nous avons organisé notre ascension du Kawah Ijen avec eux et c’était top. Si vous cherchez un lieu atypique dans la nature. C’est un lieu que je vous recommande sans hésiter !

Me and my family had a great stay. We would love to come back another time:)

wonderful place with an amazing hot spring poo and an amazing viewl. staff was very nice, room was very clean

Superbe séjour chez Made, les chambres étaient vraiment typiques, et encore plus belles en vrai qu’en photo. C’était un super séjour, il a été très accueillant, sa femme cuisine super bien, tout était excellent ! Superbe communication ! Si nous revenons vers Menjangan, nous séjournerons de nouveau ici ! Merci pour tout Made Très belle continuation
