Our hostess was most welcoming. She was very attentive everyday. We really felt as if we lived there. The listing far exceeded the description, but I guess there aren't always words for that kind of beauty and experience. The neighborhood was remote, safe, and quiet. We walked the beach as our mode for transportation or the hostess provided a driver to and from airport and other tourist destinations. She even allowed us to use her personal phone internationally for an emergency. We will only stay here when visiting this part of the globe again!

The house is beautiful, furnished with taste. A sea view breathtaking and magnificent pool The couple who takes care of the household and food (if you like) is charming and tasty treats. The house is so good you did not want to leave and walk around Bali. Contact with the owner by email are cordial and responds very quickly to our requests

Everything was great. Both Made and Nyoman were very helpfull and cooked great food

This home is even more amazing than it looks in the pictures! My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights as our first stop on our honeymoon, and it was the perfect place for us to relax after our wedding and 20+ hours of travel to Bali. The staff at the house are incredible. I highly recommend that you have them cook all of your meals. Hands down the best Balinese and Indonesian food we had all trip. We stayed and ate at 5 star resorts during the rest of our trip, but we couldn't stop thinking about time we spent at this home. Some other high points: -Beautiful, serene location, on what feels like own private black sand beach -Indonesian teak home, that is impeccably furnished in the "Bali Modern" style -5 minutes to great surfing at Balian Beach -Everything you need is available to you - the staff can cook meals, arrange a driver, bring in a local massage therapist, etc.. all at a very reasonable cost -Library of books to read as you pass the time floating in the pool -The owner is awesome! She arranged for their driver to pick us up from the airport and made a number of recommendations before we left that were very helpful We will be back with friends next time!

The villa was absolutely beautiful, charming, and so refreshing. It's a little isolated, so there is no neighborhood to report. It's on the beach with lovely surroundings. The infinity pool is directly outside the main living room, and it is so nice to swim in. The two person staff is also wonderful -- making terrific meals. There are no negative adjectives to use.

We have been coming to Bali regularly for the past 15 years, mostly renting villas, and even though we have never been disappointed by any of the villas we rented, this one is by far the best we have been to. It is not for everyone though, if you're looking for nightlife and shopping don't go there but if what you're looking for is a quiet piece of paradise nestled between rice fields and coconut trees while overlooking the ocean from the infinity pool (the largest we're ever seen) perched right above the beach then this is the place for you. Despite their limited English, Made and Nyoman are very nice hosts and they cook amazing (and very cheap) Indonesian food. The villa itself is not one of those concrete monstrosity but instead a very tastily renovated traditional house which blends perfectly in its surroundings despite being very spacious. Clearly, we fell in love. One final note, while it is not really kids friendly, as long as you are not paranoid parents you should be fine. We had 4 kids with us between 2 and 6 years old and had no issue at all. If you plan to go with young kids but are easily scared of what they do then better go elsewhere as you might end up following them 24/7. We highly recommend to rent a car/van with or without driver for the duration of you stay are they are quite a few sights within easy reach and it's also convenient if you're short of liquid supplies.

We stayed at Phyllis's house at the end of our trip in Bali for a couple days , but our family all think that we should have stayed here for the whole vacations. The house is just sublime, just in front of the sea and you can get to the beach within seconds. The layout of the house is incredible as well, each bedroom is in front of the sea, you can watch the waves from your bed! You can get to the paddle fields by walking so if you like jogging it's really nice as well. You can watch the sea from the swimming pool which is really agreeable. Concerning the the persons who work at the house, they are amazing. The food is incredibly good, but the main point is that they are really friendly. They helped us with all of our questions and they treated us as if we were one family. We were really sad to leave and if we ever come back we'll go there! Nothing to say except the best destination we've ever been to.

Fantastic location, pure nature, pure relaxation from tourism to business, however, the car or driver to something necessary pool invites you to swim, eat in the house fabulous, staff warm and accommodating, with a toddler because of various hazards such as pond, stairs etc rather tiring , frogs and salamanders are daily guests ....

The first thing that came to mind when we entered the Villa was "I could live here"! As soon as you came through the front door you are faced with an amazing view of the infinity pool and just beyond it is the ocean with waves crashing on the beach. The decor of the villa was very nice, it had a very stylish, colorful, luxurious, beach chic feel to it. On opposite sides of the main living area are 2 very nice self contained master suites, with full bathrooms. They are both so unique and well designed and we felt like we were staying on a movie set. There is a 3rd bedroom (with bathroom) but it appears to be only for an overflow of guests, as it is tucked away in the back with no windows. We ate all our meals at the villa and the staff took care of us very well. The meals were delicious, and we had no reason to venture out, besides for walks on the very secluded beach. I can honestly say, that I didn't want to leave. I could definitely get used the the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, and the wind blowing through the palm trees. I would love to make this beachfront villa, my home away from home!

We were greeted by a friendly Indonesian staff after realizing that we had walked into the wrong villa (There are two one up front and one down back). We had a great vacation and the kids loved the pool and the adults were able to relax, talk, and keep and eye on the kids. The bedrooms are wonderful and spacious. It was a great layout and the food was great too.

Our Stay in Tabanan was awesome! Ted's staff and drivers are one of a kind and we have never experienced customer service like we did when we stayed here. The staff went out of their way to make us feel at home and accommodated us in everything we asked or needed. We really felt comfortable around them and it made our stay even more awesome. They always had breakfast ready on time, fresh juice or smoothies and we will definitely be staying here again in the future. No complaints at all. We had 3 families stay here and there enough rooms and beds for all of us. not to mention that the price we payed was also very affordable. 5+ stars for our stay and wish we could of stayed longer! Thank you once again!!!

We were a group of 10 and really enjoyed our stay! The pictures really represent the villa perfectly, the staff is super nice and the communication worked perfectly! We would definitely recommend it!

It is a big house with many rooms. The high light is the pool where the family enjoyed very much. It is like living in a millionaire house . Breakfast is included and dinner can be provided at reasonable cost. The driver and the house keepers are friendly and helpful. Only issue is the long driving time from airport to the house .

The house is enormous and luxurious, the staff are unbelievably friendly and accommodating, the pool was beautiful, the food delicious! We absolutely loved our stay here and would highly recommend it. We had 4 kids with us and the staff were so lovely with them (the kids loved speaking Indonesian with the staff). We would absolutely go back!

If you want to truly get away from it all and experience Bali at it's quietest and best, this villa is well worth a visit. We had two beautiful weeks over Christmas and didn't really want to leave. We had a large party of guests arriving and leaving at different times and Wawan the house driver could not have been more helpful or friendly in accommodating our pick-up and drop-off needs. In fact the staff in general really helped make our stay memorable - Tete, Hendra and Gede all lived on site and helped ensure we were fed delicious food and that the house was clean during our stay. They were also able to shop for us when we needed additional items. The owner (the host's Father) was also on site and very friendly and helpful too. The villa itself is exactly as advertised, with lots of space to relax on your own, or spend time with family and friends. The Balian surf beach was only a few minutes down the road and offered a change of scene. Do be aware that it is secluded and very quiet so you want to be close to bars and nightclubs, this is not the place for you! However if you have a large family or group of friends, and you want to spend quality time together you should definitely put this on your list. We look forward to returning!

A very nice experience. Thank you all for your hospitality. We were very touched by your warmth, kindness and availability. Indra and his friends have been outstanding during the stay and are really there to meet us as can. The house meets the photos, we would be more préfèré balineenne decoration? However this is a historic mansion, large and suitable to wish quite families. We would have liked to meet Ted or Kartinah which would have avoided us the end of stay inconvenience but we recommend this house without any deduction for the quality of its services and its environment.

There was a party of 12 adults who stayed here for two weeks in Feb 2017 the home is very basic im not sure if they understand the term "Luxury". It is in need of a major overhaul there were bad smells of damp in most rooms, electric sockets hanging off walls, ants everywhere, air conditioning in some rooms worked well in others major problems, electric kept going out in villa, we had a major water leak on one day where water was poring through the ceiling all night in one of the bedrooms and there was no one to help til morning and when they had fixed the leak no one cleaned the mess up in the room until asked to. the whole villa was like being in one in the seventies which is when i think it had last seen any money spent on it. the cleaners and kitchen staff were very helpful and accommodating. When we first arrived we starting having meals at the villa they would ask you in the morning what meals you wanted that day we would say lunch and dinner but know one could tell us what that meal was going to be until it was served up and quite often we didnt enjoy it so started to eat out most days. breakfast was ok toast always cold as only had one twin toaster to cook for 12 guests. i suggest making a list of meals guests can chose from. now to Wawan the manager who was well never to be found and extremely rude i asked him the first day to get me prices on tours we wanted to do and after 3 days i had to find him to ask if he had managed to get me prices he had forgot but gave me prices the next day. I then went on the internet (when it worked) my self and got some prices my self which turned out to be over $500 cheaper than his prices so booked it my self. On the day of our first tour Wawan called me over as we were getting on the mini bus and told me off for booking tours without his consent i replied that im renting the villa i should be able to book with whom i like, he replied that i was to get the mini bus off his land and not to have anymore on it. so from that day on wards we met the mini bus on the main road. This i think is extremely wrong i found out later he was angry because he wasn't getting his kick back from it. Every-time we used the villa car to run us anywhere we got different prices one time we went to tabanan to the supermarket it was 400 rup return other times it was 700 return. NOT GOOD MANAGMENT!!! Bear in mind that the villa is in the middle of nowhere and you need transport even for the shops...

Amazing villa with unbelievable view to the ocean. We were 8 people staying in the villa for a week and we had a super nice stay with great breakfast from Nyoman every day. 2 minutes walk to Balian beach with awesome waves. Can't wait to come back to Nyomans place :)

Fredy welcomed us friendly and warm hearted. He showed us around in the house and the great garden. The room is nice and well equipped, a refrigerator provides always cold drinks. The swimming pool invites for cool down swim during a hot day. In the evening Made provided us with a terrific, local meal, we enjoyed very much. We had many questions due to our stay on Bali and Fredy was always there to answer and provide us with a lot of insights from the view of a former foreigner who lives now on Bali for a long time close to the local people. 3 min walk down the road Made runs a well known SPA and Beauty Shop, which we tried and therefore can highly recommend. A quiet beach is 8 min walking distance. For our tours Fredy organized us drivers.

Die Unterkunft von Made und Fredy können wir nur empfehlen. Wir haben uns als Teil der Familie gesehen, da man sein eigenes schönes Zimmer und sauberes Bad im Haus hat, aber trotzdem blieb genügend Privatsphäre. ( Auch wenn davon keine Fotos auf Airbnb sind, sollte man sich nicht abschrecken lassen, alles top!!!), Das Haus ist ruhig gelegen, mitten in einem toll angelegten Garten mit Pool. Ideal für Kinder, da es viele Tiere auf dem Anwesen gibt, von Schildkröte, Hund zu einem sprechenden Beo namens Dino. Das typisch balinesische Essen von Made war ein Traum, auf Wunsch auch vegetarisch. Wir konnten viel über Land und Leute erfahren. Besonders spannend war es, als uns die Beiden zu einer typisch balinesischen Zeremonie mitgenommen haben. Das hätten wir so sicherlich nicht erleben können. Bei Fragen standen beide jederzeit zur Verfügung und ohne Probleme konnten wir über Fredy Fahrer, Roller oder sogar eine Unterkunft zu unserem nächsten Reiseziel organisieren. Ein Aufenthalt bei Made und Fredy ist ein MUSS, wenn man auf Bali Urlaub macht. Der Balian Beach und die Reisfelder sind zudem traumhaft schön. Vielen Dank, dass wir bei euch sein durften.

My family (five people altogether) recently completed our stay at Villa Bulung Daya. The property was more beautiful in person than in the photos, if you can imagine that. Absolutely gorgeous ocean views and a very calm, relaxing environment. The house is surrounded by nothing but rice fields. The fact that a driver is included means you won't be completely isolated if you don't want to be. That being said, the ride to the house isn't bad at all. I think it took us around 1.5 hours but you'll pass so many interesting little villages and sights, that it goes by fast. As for the staff, they are very good at being around when you need them without being intrusive. I have to give major credit to the villa butler. He was out the first two nights due to a personal matter, but when he returned he absolutely made the stay. He was so professional yet warm, kind and hospitable. He learned our names and took special care to make us feel at home - leaving bottled water for us at the pool, interacting with us personally to ask how things were, etc. A true gem! As for the negatives, I'd say property upkeep can be improved along with some of the food. I do have to say desserts were incredible, especially the coconut crepes and banana spring rolls. I can't emphasize this enough - do not skip dessert! The property owner, Thibault, was great to work with. Very responsive to emails and super helpful in the planning process as well as during the actual stay. I shared some of my feedback with him already and he took it in stride. A true pro. This is a beautiful piece of paradise worth visiting if you want to get away from everything and feel like you're at your own private resort. Overall, we had a great stay at Bulung Daya.

The embodiment of the dream of a luxurious vacation! - Photo fully reflect reality. The live even better! Clean, neat and beautiful. - Villa- only building on the beach. It is an almost private. - The view from all rooms is absolutely stunning. Simply fascinating! - Swimming pool gorgeous, the water is very warm - Strive to make your vacation rayskim- Surer team of 5 people. Service at a good 5-star hotel. - Tasty and beautifully fed. - Place the maximum privacy. On the one hand rice fields, on the other, a beach with black volcanic sand. Features of the villa you need to know: - As in most of Bali beaches, go to the ocean to a depth of rekomenduetsya- strong currents. But the jump in the waves on the shore is quite possible, the water is warm. - If you want to find the Balinese direct atmospheric place, keep in mind that this villa is in a different format. The villa is in the photo: modern, comfortable, spacious, stylish, sleek design. But the home of the temple, statues and mossy fences you will not find here. - Privacy is also has its own characteristics. In walking distance of any attractions there. Long walk through rice fields, then do not get into the tourist village. Frankly, at the Villa so good, beautiful and peaceful that go on trips to suffocating and touristy place did not want to.

What an entrance, picked up from the port and driven to this beautiful property. Lovely welcome drink on arrival! Service was perfect from start to finish and I felt perfectly at home. These guys know what they are doing!! Breathtaking views from both bedrooms, amazing pool etc.

I mean the photos look great but they do not do the villa justice. Unsurpassed location, jaw-dropping vistas, incredible villa & that pool, we thoroughly adored our stay. I only wish we didn't have to leave! Gusti, Dedung & the team were amazing and we wanted for nothing. After 2 weeks in Seminyak, this was the perfect location with our own (pretty much) private beach. It's not a base to explore from, it's a place to get away from it all. As it mentions in the listing, it isn't the most kid friendly of villas but the home office which is connected to the main bedroom was perfectly set up for our infant son.

villa great, modern design, large swimming pool, beach sunset very extraordinary beauty, definitely not lost ayana the rock bar (we live in the last days ayana)! Home for the elderly and come together, everyone is very satisfied with the house, super attentive service, every meal can make adjustments according to our needs, the car is also very convenient to go out, is far away from the attractions of some more, it takes a long drive but gusti very patient, always give you a lot of recommendations were also very well arranged. Overall, villa away from the hustle and bustle, enjoy the scenery very nice place!

We stayed here for 5 nights, but it wasn't enough. This is a miracle of the location, view and a beautiful sunset, you just need to sit or almost slept there, waiting for the beautiful scene. The five day, we don't want to go anywhere… Especially, our service team is very friendly and occupation, Gusti is very very good, also for my wife to prepare and arrange a big surprise ,Thank you so much!

It was very nice in Bulung Daya, the prospect also fascinating. We could very well relax. The staff were always very friendly and helpful. The food was very good, every day there was another court. I can Bulung Daya anyone of enspannen wants and no time for hectic Turistenorte has.

Excellent stay and well worth it. Beautiful spot. Gusti and the staff were superb in taking care of us for our stay. Would go back again.

Wayan is the Perfect Host. He is such a nice guy!whenever we needed something, he was there to help us or to give us some tips! He Even made us a delisious breakfast! The Place is so beautiful in the middle of the rice Field. So Green an peaceful! We gor here everything we needed and it was the perfect Start into our holidays! We hope we come back! Thank you dir everything Wayan

The location was very scenic - close to the beach and an authentic experience. Wayan was fantastic in recommending activities during my stay

The beautiful house is set on amazingly green rice paddies a short 5 minute walk from the beach. Away from the hustle and bustle of the very busy road. At night, you will fall asleep to the sounds of nature and nothing else. The bed is very comfortable, has a mosquito net, and the shower has hot water and powerful. Wayan is the perfect host. Always there to help in anything you need. Him and his wife, Ketut, are lovely people and they introduced me to their family who are always around the compound. Their daughter is only 4 and the cutest child you'll ever meet. Balian is a very tranquil little town with such a great community feel. If you are looking to surf, make no mistake, this spot is still uncrowded, unlike Canggu and spots further east. I surfed three days and there was never more than 10 at the peak. Don't hesitate to stay here. It really is a hidden paradise

An amazing place to stay in Balian and Wayan as a host made us feel welcome and looked after us so well. Had an amazing time

We had an AMAZING time staying here. Wayan was very helpful and accommodating and he made us a great breakfast every morning. The rice fields were breathtaking, it was truly magical. Thank you so much we will be back!

I would say it is the perfect accommodation for natural people. It was a great experience with a rice field next to your place and a short walk to the beach.

If you want to experience the real Bali this is the place to hang out and get back to nature

We were at Ketuts for five days. We were treated with amazing transportation to the homestay. Very very nice people in a beautiful small beach community. Our bed was very nice with a gallon off clean drinking water. We also were very happy with quite location. We were able to rent a scooter from him and go on road trips around the area. Great location 5min walk to the beach. Night markets and great restaurants around the area. To finish it off a great ride to our next location. Made it very easy for us to be happy about this place in Balian. Thank you Ketut and Wayan.

we had a very nice time there with very beatiful views and very close to the beach. its in a very quiet area but very friendly. don´t expect a very clean place and you´ll probably have more than one insect around your room. however its a nice place to spend a couple of days

The place, the staff, Jamie & (URL HIDDEN) was all perfect! Everyone was so warm and welcoming. It truly felt like a home away from home. There was enough privacy, but always help when needed. Jamie, Wendy, and the staff were all SO helpful in giving us tips- whether it was where to eat or what site to see (away from all of the tourists)! The massages, food, and friendly faces were INCREDIBLE. Not to mention the house was even better than the pictures. They were not lying when they said this was a taste of the "true Bali." We would love to come back again in the future!

Jamie and Wendy and their staff were gracious hosts and their house is phenomenally located on the beach!

We absolutely loved our time at The Beach House! Jamie and Wendy were attentive to all our needs, the house was imaculate, staff were so friendly, food was outstanding, location unbelievable and the whole experience was just amazing . We had the best honeymoon! THANKYOU Jamie and Wendy .

There is a reason there are so many 5 star reviews of this wonderful place. Rather than repeat what everyone else has already said, I'll just focus on a few key points from my observation. The hosts are extremely helpful, allowing us to add two parties within a day's notice and arranging for transportation from Seminyak for us with a very professional driver. Upon arrival you'll be amazed at even the gardens and walk to the beach house, the fish pond you step across to the master bedroom, and the general open concept of the entire place. The breakfasts are included and laundry services are as well. They were extremely generous and flexible, for example they only charged us one day for scooters since we had the keys other days but decided not to go out... When we departed they booked three separate transportation vehicles for us as we were all leaving to different areas and different times. The place is pretty remote in terms of nice restaurants, and the hosts know this, so they offer the villa staff to prepare wonderful meals for a small fee if you would like. Comes out to about $11 USD per person and the meals are GREAT! They also offer reasonable fees if you wish to drink wine, beer, and sodas... Cheaper for me to drink the wine with their prices then even purchase at the local store! They would also restock anything you used, and let me pay via (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) which was helpful. You'll love this place!

We were at the end of our Bali holiday for almost 5 days in Beach House by Jamie and Wendy and it was really great there. According to our first stop in Ubud, Sanur and the Gilis Tabanan is a place far from the large tourism Troubles where you can rest in peace. A scooter or taxi should be used here definitely something mitzubekommen of the environment or to possibly even to go out to eat something. As for the house and the pool so this is already exactly as shown in the pictures, really great! In addition there is also still the great service from Jamie and Wendy who were always available when needed and not to forget the staff who daily a great varied breakfast served up to us, and then was cleaning and if desired even did the laundry and always super friendly and were nice. All in all we can recommend this venue good cook!

We stayed here for a part of our honeymoon! Our stay exceeded our expectations in every way! Jamie and Wendy were amazing! The house is beautiful! Peaceful.. A little piece of paradise .. They arranged driver to pick us up from our hotel in Ubud.. We were welcomed with an amazing dinner. The food is the best we've had in Bali! Breakfast was delicious! They organized day trips for us.. Snorkel was beautiful, also horseback riding, we visited A temple. They also organized a yoga instructor to come to the house.. The maids Ayu and Agus are the sweetest persons ever! Their food is the best in bali and also Ayu does amazing massages! We totally recommend this place!

The beach house is like a dream, a secret heaven, treasure of Art. My husband and me had wonderful three days here, what a great time and memorable experience! No words to express the full measure of our happiness in those three days, and our gratitude to Jamie and Wendy for sharing such a wonderful house to the guests.  Thanks for all, from deep of our hearts. 

It is wery nice place, quite and romantic.

Forget the resorts, tourists and immerse yourself in Balian beach. The villa is completely setup for your friends and family to step back from your busy lives and to treat yourself to the Balian culture. From the first day Adam and his close knit Balian staff ( more like a family to us) took care of our needs and reminded us to enjoy ourselves. A stones throw from the waves and the music of the surf to put your nerves to rest. We quickly found out how special this place is. The best secret in part of Bali!  I recommend stopping off and stocking up on some food essentials as grocery stores are not close by. We bought enough to keep us busy for snacks at night.  We took a walk to the local Warung on the beach..and met Wayan our breakfast cook for the next few days. He's a remarkable person with great cusine skills. We also met his "guard" dogs which our kids loved playing with..especially the puppy. Lita the villa manager really helped us with arranging SIM cards and anything we needed.  My wife enjoyed a massage and my kids and I rarely stayed inside, rather playing on the beaches or taking morning and evening swims. Please take note It's not a swimming beach, but still can be enjoyed with caution and letting the warm foam tide crash over you as you sit down on the sand. The only reminder of reality was when we tried to remembers what time is was. Time is not important here, enjoying yourself and surroundings is.  We met many locals and watched the surfing from Dekis Warung and a couple other places, too. My mornings were taken part of walks on the soft volcanic sand beaches and waking back to find breakfast already to go, a feast My family enjoyed taking their time eating. We ate outside in the covered lounge daily and they even offered to make us other meals later at night if we wanted!  People are friendly and please talk and enjoy what they can share with you! I could go on and on but one thing is for sure we are and would defiantly enjoy going back.. 5 days was not long enough. Thank you for the wonderful time and giving us the opportunity to experience a part of Bali we've never seen before! 

A beautiful house near the beach in a very quiet and charming place! Large relaxation areas with stunning views. Large clean with a beautiful pool! We will definitely be back doing most days.

We stayed in this beautiful villa for 3 days. Since we are living in the very south of Bali we needed some relaxing time. And that is what the villa you will get. What a stunning place to be. Very calm, relax, green. The villa itself is brand new and very well maintained. Master bedroom is amazing and even got a desk to work on :-). Both bedrooms Downstairs are very clean also. Smells good (what is not always common on Bali, even it is a high class villa). Very short walking distance to the beach, where is an excellent surf! Beside that a small warung with the basics you need. Supermarket is down the (main) road towards the village. Recommend for everybody who like the calm.

We recently spent two weeks at Adam's. The house is beautiful. Very spacious, stocked with everything you need and it's right off the beach. Wayan and Bella were both amazing and took care of all our needs during our stay. There are a few great places to eat in the village across the river and a great little warung on the beach below the house. Can't wait to make it back on our next visit to Bali

Our stay was very nice. The villa was super, clean and spacious. We loved every minute. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We would come back any time. Next time we would rent scooters to go out or to the next village as it's not easy to get around without transport.

Love love loved it. so spacious, surrounded by very tall coconut trees, a stones through from the beach. sleeping with the sound of crashing waves was wonderful. staff were gorgeous, host was accomodating of our requests. Pool was perfect temperature, a variety of relaxing areas for our teens to seperate and not all feel squashed in. hope to go back

Staying at this villa was a memorable experience. The accommodation's at the villa were exceptional. Wayan made us feel welcome each and every day.

Secluded and peaceful and for the more adventurous go and see Ronnie the local surf instructor just down the road where all the restaurants are.

Ketut was very friendly and was always there to answer if you had any questions. He even showed me the night market that had good an cheap good! I stayed at ketuts place for 4 nights. In the mornings it would be some small bugs in my bed but did not think that much about it. After the third night I realize that the bugs was coming from the pillows. The pillows were crawling with bugs!! This is not the place to live if you are not comfortable with bugs in your bed and a dirty outside toilet. It's a lot of nice home stays in Balian beach that is half the price with breakfast and a clean rooms. I recommend that. The price and what you get dose not add up!!!

Ketut (his name means 4th child), is a very friendly host. I arrived a day late so I only stayed one night. The beach was amazing for surfing. It was amazing to sit at the surf camp warung (restaurant) and watch as everyone surfed. I myself don't surf, and was only here a brief time or I would have definitely tried to learn. The bungalow was interesting. Very rustic feel. Nice Mosquito net, fan, power outlets, little hammock below the bungalow where you can relax during the day. As a taller man, most of this was a bit difficult to circumnavigate, but if you are less than 170cm, you should be fine. The outdoor bathroom was interesting. The shower was a small diameter pipe that poured (not gushed) water out. Would I stay here again. If I was very keen to surf, maybe. Constructive criticism: when I was there, there was a noticeable ant issue. Ants in the outdoor bathroom made tidying up at night difficult. And before I left, ants had even decided to join me in the bungalow. Also, bed sheet smelled a bit like it was stored in a cupboard for a year. Definitely didn't smell freshly washed. Nor did the pillow. I had to use a t-shirt to cover the pillow or it just felt gross on my face. All the best Ketut, thanks for hosting.

We had a great and relaxing stay in one of the lovely huts. My friend had a surf lesson and later on a tour of the 'garden' and we ate the fresh fruits. I had a massage from a family friend for 1 hour which was heaven. I recommend a stay in this quiet and relaxing area.

if you are looking for something different like wild nature and relax you must go there. no confort , real indonesian style

Ketut has received very gentiement us. Funny, sports and more he speaks French! The small cabins are very well maintained overlooking a small paddy field all at 100m from the sea

Fantastic communication before checking in. The place is a true paradise with lovely details everywhere. Sleeping with frogs, birds and other animals in the back singing was a great experience.

This is the definition of simple livin'. We liked it a lot, my boyfriend and I. Even though I personally prefer a toalett and shower inside, it was cool to see the moon and the stars while in the shower. If you're looking for a simple livin' lifestyle, this is the place. And it's really close to the beach too!

Ketut is a great host and made us feel very welcome. We came to Balian beach to do some surfing and Ketut's place was perfect for that. The accommodation is 5 minutes walk from the beach. It's quite basic and there is no hot water but if you're there only for a surf, it will be right for you!

We stayed for almost two weeks at Wayan's en Ketut's place (we stayed even longer because we liked it so much). We had a lovely time! Ketut prepared very nice breakfast according to our wishes (Indonesian, vegetarian, local). Every day was a surprise what we would get and every day it was delicious! The house is basic and comfortable, the beds have mosquito-nets and there are two hammocks on the veranda. The view from the house is beautiful overlooking ricefield. The beach is close by and amazing with black sand, lots of shells and big waves. The shore is shallow so even when the waves were big it was safe for the kids to play. Wayan and Ketut are involved in the local community and try to support it as much as possible. We would recommend this place to everyone. Thank you Wayan and Ketut!

Wow! This place is a little peace of heaven. Wayan and his wife were the most friendly hosts I have ever come across. This place is a must stay! Great surf within walking distance and beautiful location in the rice field. Absolutely perfect stay!!

Wayan was really a nice host and made everything so that our staying be great. It was well appreciated! We went to this superb authentic Balinese house among the rice terrace which was amazing !! The experience was so powerful, just to be in the middle of this nature and culture. Thanks

Wayan and Ketut were perfect hosts and looked after after us. Magnificent house at rice field, a short way to the beach. The only small caveat: nocturnal traffic noise from the nearby main road.
