    Since it is a small hotel with only 4 rooms, there wasn't much to do in hotel itself, other than watching waves crash.

    Nice location, right by the ocean and on the happening street of Penida. All the amenities were close by. Rooms were clean however there was a small leak in our bathroom Basin. Staff were friendly and very helpful but they are not available all the time and have to call them if needed.

    Only one small caveat: don‘t expect a sandy beach from the pictures, that does not really exist in Nusa Penida‘s north!

    The Umah Prahu Bungalows are exactly what the pictures promise: a really beautiful, relaxed way to stay on Nusa Penida, with an amazing view. The staff was really friendly, the breakfast really good and the bed very comfortable. Also, a good Warung with nice views as well as a supermarket are right next door if you’re looking for food or water. We had a great time and would recommend this place to everyone visiting Nusa Penida!

    Would have been perfect if had tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

    Great location near two of the island's four harbours, with lots of warungs and mini marts a short walk away. Easy access to both east and west coast sights. Very clean bungalows in fabulous setting on the seafront. Lovely little seating area on the front where you can chill and enjoy the view. Good air conditioning, comfortable beds, spacious rooms, good water pressure and lots of hot water. Friendly staff who will help you with good value tours and transport. Nice breakfasts served either on your terrace or dedicated dining table with sea view.

    Property is not maintained as it should be. The chairs kept for Sunbathing were in a poor shape. There is a lot of scrap near the Sunbathing area at the beach side of the Resort. There is no one in the Reception in the night.

    Rooms are nice. The view is Awesome. The rooms are extremely peaceful. Breakfast is good but repetitive. You can rent scooter from the reception at a good price. We spent a lot of our time in Nusa Penida discovering the island so we came to the Hotel only to sleep. Overall, good value for money.

    Our room was next to the street and it was pretty noisy. Perhaps the other rooms further from the main road are quieter. If you have the chance, choose the ones far from it. Unfortunately, we didn’t have ocean views from our balcony as we thought we would, and we couldn’t swim there (too many corals, and the beach is not quite nice)

    It’s pretty close to the harbour and there are good bars and restaurants around. The breakfast was amazing and the owners were really kind to us.

    They donot have an inhouse restaurent but there are few good restaurants closeby. The breakfast available is very basic. The hosts helped us with arrangement of scooter. They were present at the time we checked in and early in the morning. However we wanted to enquire few things during the evening, but couldn't do so because they were not around. I guess they don't have reception facility post evening.

    The rooms were clean and maintained well and the property is right besides the sea..yeah literally besides the sea :) If you are looking for a budget stay, then this place is a good option.

    Place needs desperately upgrading. The place is in the prime position but looks very out dated. Garden and front patio needs updating, beach lounger and cushions are grubby. Bathroom fittings are falling apart and shower handle broke off during our stay. Owner did send someone straightaway to fix and he seems to fixed it all but it wasnt. I dont know how water pump works but none of the cottage that night (we had 3 cottages) had any water in bathroom throughout whole night. Imagine not using toilet all nights and we had 2 children as well. It was so hard to explain to owner and it was late at night so we gave up and next morning he send the person again to fix and he replaced the whole shower fittings. I can understand some time things happens and we have no control over it but the owner send me a whatsapp message saying generally they charge guests for the damage but they are not charging us due to inconvenience caused. That is totally unacceptable. The bathroom fittings are already in derelict condition that if you touch it might fell off and you want to blame that on your guests!!! Unbelievable. When we checked in all the room had unbearable smell of damp and even the duvet had big marks of damp water. We assume it is due to heavy rain so thought not to make a big issue out of it. We know Nusa Penida is not connected to mainland and things may be little dearer on that part of the Bali. Its shame such a lovely place Umah Prahu is just it needs TLC. Ok for 1 or 2 night stay but not more.

    Young girl at reception very friendly and helpful. Seems very hardworking. Comfy beds. Decent AC. Enough hot water. Nice location close to local amenities. Seafront location. Onsite scooter rental. Water bottles were given once then you can fill the water from water dispenser kept in reception area.

    We loved everything :)

    Our favourite place to stay in Nusa Penida. The hosts are absolutely lovely, they are very kind & helpful. We were able to rent a scooter with them, everything was a breeze. We got a flat tire on the road, they came and saved us within minutes! We were so grateful & appreciated everything they did for us. The breakfast was amazing, every single morning. The omelettes are a generous size and are loaded with vegetables unlike other omelettes we’ve had on the island. The banana pancakes are delicious as well. The room was spacious and comfortable. Lots of room for your luggage and stretching/exercising. It was very clean upon arrival. The mattress was so comfortable, we slept well because it was so comfy. Same with the pillows and blankets. The AC worked well, the room was nice and cool. We had hot water for showering, no issues. There was a wardrobe as well for your clothing. The view of the ocean is beautiful, you can hear the waves crashing. A very peaceful place to stay. If you want to relax in the sun they also have loungers to tan. If the tide allows for it, you can also walk down a few steps to the water. If you’re hungry, there’s a delicious Mexican restaurant right next door. We will definitely be staying here again when we do our next trip to Nusa Penida.
