Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Potential for noise from outside — One guest mentioned a window that was broken during their stay, though it was quickly fixed. This suggests occasional maintenance issues.
  • Limited on-site facilities — With only six rooms and basic amenities, this guesthouse won't suit those seeking a resort-like experience with pools or extensive services.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this isn't an option – the guesthouse has a strict no-pets policy.

“Everything was wonderful. The staff were warm, happy, and resourceful, and Annie was a great host with lots of local tips – she can even arrange a reliable driver from Denpasar. Breakfast was outstanding, using fresh produce and seasonal fruit. The property was quiet, just a 2-minute walk to good local food and drinks. From the balcony you can see the mountains. The 1.5 km walk into central Ubud is a gentle downhill with interesting sights, including a lovely temple about 1 km away. The alternative route through the rice terraces is magnificent. A driver is available for trips into town or further afield, even on the back of a scooter. I extended my stay and wished I could have stayed a week.”

“We booked for 3 nights and ended up staying 7 – it's a really great place. The rooms were huge, nicely decorated, clean, and had aircon and a TV with many movie channels. We loved the free water, tea, and coffee. The daily room cleaning was excellent – a special thanks to the team. A beautiful location in Ubud – we loved it.”
