“I will come there again”

Cozy. Nothing else.

Everything was perfect, thanks for the warm welcome and the house looked exactly like the photos – we really enjoyed our stay.

The reception was great, but there was a more than 50 cm step to reach the bathroom, which felt dangerous.

The car can be parked nearby and there’s a local shop close by. The house itself is decent, but there are many “but’s”. There’s only one air‑conditioner on the second floor. The pool is tiny, only big enough for a thigh, and it stays cold because it’s covered and doesn’t heat up. No insect repellents are provided, so unless you bring your own, you can’t sit outside in the evening. The front door is hard to close and leaves large gaps for insects. Lighting is very weak. The whole house creaks when you walk, and even with earplugs you can hear someone on the stairs. Three times in the evening we had a clogged drain. First the staff said it couldn’t happen, then a representative came and turned off the pool pump immediately – we didn’t even get to say we had it on, so they know about the problem but do nothing. Most importantly, to enter or exit the toilet (bathroom) you have to step down or climb up the threshold. The threshold height is 50 cm. That’s terrible. Definitely not recommended for families with children. In short, I do not recommend this house.

“Een authentiek en warm verblijf met veel comfort én een fijne host.”

Everything about this cottage exudes beauty and calm. You can sleep both upstairs and downstairs, and the gorgeous bathroom – with a lovely outdoor shower – adds an extra touch of luxury. The pool is perfect for cooling off after a hot day, and the outdoor kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need. What truly makes this stay special is its location: you’re right in the middle of the local community yet still have all the comfort you’d expect. We took a wonderful walk through the rice paddies, an experience we won’t soon forget. The host is exceptionally friendly and helpful. He took us to a local warung where we dined wonderfully and pointed out nice spots nearby. Thanks to him we also visited the Samsara museum, where you get a great glimpse into traditional Balinese life. Although breakfast wasn’t included, he surprised us in the morning with delicious pisang goreng and laklak simply because he knew we’d love them. It’s a pity we could only stay one night, but our travel plans were already set. This is undoubtedly a place we’d love to return to. Because you’re in the middle of village life, you’ll share the busier local morning rush in the early hours. For us that was just part of the charm, but it’s good to know.
