    It’s not entirely clear in the photos how far the pool is from the room we were in, not a big deal but good to have the info.

    The property was beautiful and well located, it was nice to have a garden space to ourselves and the facilities were good.

    the ac is not that efficient, it worked so so. but I was managable. also, before we got here we did not realize that there was no classes in the nice big yoga studio that was shown, and it was fully booked the whole time we stayed. could be mentioned in bookings.com

    we had the pleasure to stay close to the beautiful pool which was very nice, also close to breakfast and the Cafe. the walk from the street is further than expected but very nice, we liked it a lot. the staff is also very friendly. would recommend!

    A bit more difficult to have a cab/ a Bluebird driver waiting for you in this place

    Everything was perfect. I had a big bedroom suite (I was really not expecting something that huge), the swimming pool was great, the team was really nice.

    I think it was getting a little worn - the mosquito net had holes in it, the bathroom was looking old and mouldy. the breakfast starts about 1/2 hour late compared to other places.

    my room location was in the rice paddy fields. and the vegetarian food was good.

    This is a catch 22! But, it would've been nice to have wifi connection in the room, however it was available close by where we ate breakfast. This did help in keeping screen time to a minimum, which can't be a bad thing.

    The property setting in the rear is amazing, right out there in the patty fields! However, this led to some major confusion in getting there via Goggle maps (July '22). Goggle maps showed the property way back from the main street, which it is, but the check-in desk in on the main street and you just walk back to the rooms/pool/yoga hall from there. Simple! Apple maps showed the front desk, fyi. Food was great, staff were great and we really enjoyed our stay here. My wife had an awful ear infection during this time and didn't get to enjoy the amenities as much as she had hoped, so we missed out on yoga and messages. Its a little way away from central Ubud, so its a bit of a hike but the flip side to that, it was very quite and peaceful!

    you are truly immersed in nature. good healthy food selection, amazing views of the rice fields. really worth trying the spa treatments which are reasonable and really great and if you are there on the right day the sound healing is exceptional. rooms are comfortable and in tune with the surrounding rice fields. lovely pool with a great view.

    Not-so-friendly staff at the reception / Mumbai Station. There was only one staff working in the kitchen for dinner at the café. The Wi-Fi connection was not good in our room.

    Gorgeous floating breakfast available by the pool, bit long 5 min walk from the entrance to our room, lovely staff at their spa.

    The property did not match the images and was not good value for money. You check-in at the Indian restaurant at the end of the complex, where you are left waiting for Restraunt staff to find the time to organise your check-in

    They have no safe storage space to store bags unless you specifically ask. and we think it is in the main office. Check out was a very convoluted process for us. We waited about 20 minutes to get our bags and to pay our bill. not normal for Bali.

    The rooms are large. we stayed in a villa so it was quite luxurious. They are getting a little worn and tired.
