In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Exceptional location among rice fields — Guests repeatedly praise the peaceful setting, with former rice terraces and tropical gardens, yet still only a few minutes' walk from Ubud's centre and Monkey Forest Road via a footbridge.
  • Welcoming and attentive staff — Multiple reviews call out the friendly, helpful team, from welcome drinks to personal touches like a surprise cake for a family celebration.
  • Strong value for money — Guests describe the pension as 'upmarket at budget prices', with large rooms set in individual bungalows and abundant hot water, all at a reasonable rate.
  • Beautifully maintained gardens and pool — The tropical grounds and plunge pool are a recurring highlight, providing a serene spot to relax after exploring Ubud.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Mixed comfort and facilities scores — Comfort and facilities both rate 6.8, the lowest of the hotel's categories, suggesting some areas may feel basic or dated despite the appealing setting.
  • Road and bathroom issues — One guest noted the road in front of the pension could be improved, and another mentioned the shower's hot water pressure was too high – feedback that wasn't acted on.
  • Breakfast can have flies — A reviewer observed flies in the cafe during breakfast, which may put off some guests.
  • Small property with limited on-site dining — The pension has a modest scale – no mention of a full restaurant beyond a snack bar and coffee shop – and some guests noted the limited breakfast options.

“Excellent, peaceful location in villas among wonderful terraced gardens – former rice terraces – yet only a few minutes' walk from the centre of Ubud, with cafes, shops and countryside close by.”

8Verified guest

“Clean room, friendly staff, beautiful rice field scenery, and a large room and bathroom that fit three people. Great location for walking around Ubud and excellent value.”

8Verified guest

“Excellent value for money. We expected backpacker-level comfort but found something more upmarket at budget prices. Rooms are large and comfortable, each in a separate bungalow surrounded by lush gardens. Hot water is abundant, rice fields provide a scenic backdrop, and a footbridge gives quick access to Monkey Forest Road. The traditional Balinese architecture adds appeal, and the staff are helpful and friendly.”

8Verified guest

“I liked the quiet, peaceful environment, the green rice fields, and the friendly, helpful people – convenient for getting around. The road in front could be improved, the shower's hot water pressure is too high, and there were flies in the cafe during breakfast.”
