Personally I was missing an AC - but there was a big fan at the sealing so it's fine ✌️

Cute lodges. Friendly staff and very very clean.

Madé and her family were delightful and very helpful. I was completely exhausted after driving from GWK in horrendous traffic & she had her husband park the car in a safe lot for me. She also arranged for her father, who is a guide and driver, to take me to Besakih Temple the next morning so that I could have a day away from driving. The room and the balcony in the middle of the rainforest were healing.

The roosters take some getting used to but nothing a pair or ear plugs can’t fix if and when you need an afternoon nap. Incentive to get up and get on with your day.

Beautiful private balcony in a family environment. Walkable distance to busy Ubud central but away from all the hustle so you can relax after a long day. Ketut and family are such warm hosts, aunty downstairs can make fresh coconut oil. Alit went above and beyond to ensure comfort. Delicious Balinese coffee and breakfast. Felt right at home. Kids and pets are so cute. Scooters available on request.

No aircon in the bedroom

The people there were really nice and friendly

The room was a little on the damp side, the bed could have done with a little wipe down from surface mildew. It was absolutely fine apart from that.

Very welcoming and great to stay at a traditional Balinese home. Beautiful forest view from the bedroom/balcony.

Big room, with beautiful terrace and view to jungle. I loved the privacy.

Katut is such an amazing person, he made our stay even more special, everything you need he will help you with. The accomodation has very good value for money and you can feel that it is a very authentic place to stay.

Nothing! We loved it. It’s a bit out of ubud center but the location is still good! There are also a fair bit of jungle / animal noises at night (ie roosters, etc), though these were mostly drowned out by our fan.

Beautiful room with balcony looking out onto a lush (and loud) jungle! Friendly staff, nice bathroom, laundry and other services available.

We had such a lovely stay at Bali Asli Lodge. We felt very welcomed, and we loved being able to catch moments of the daily life of a Balinese family. The rooms are spacious, cool and very private, and they got cleaned everyday during our stay. Room is also far away enough from the road that is quiet, but central Ubud is only a walk away. Would 100% recommend the experience.

Stayed in March 2024

Everything was wonderful; location, our breakfast, our balcony to the woods, serenity and beauty just few minutes walk from the busy center. Everyone was very kind and helpful to whatever we asked for. Highly recommended 😃

There is no AC because it is a traditional house, the ceiling is made from the leaves (i think) so they can’t have an AC, only fan ceiling. The host added a standing fan but it didn’t help much. We travelled during the rainy season but it’s still hot inside the room. There is no available hair dryers in the room, if you need, just ask the host. But the electricity is so weak, when i use hair dryer, it can’t handle so the electricity in the room is off.

The room is spacious with nice bed and furniture. The bathroom has an open ceiling (share the ceiling with the whole room), there is hot water. It’s upstair so be careful and watch your steps. The host is really nice, she has been doing her business about 14-15 years with her husband. They provide private tours with their own car, the husband drives. The house is in a small alley but totally safe and big enough for scooters.

Nothing - it was all great :)

The property was lovely and a fantastic way to experience the real Bali. The room looked out into a jungle and it was nice to sit out on the balcony of a morning. Made, Ketut and their family were so kind and went above and beyond to welcome us into their family and to make sure we enjoyed our stay. We did a day tour with Ketut which was great and we learnt so much! Highly recommend!

I booked for 19 days so was looking for somewhere that balanced a good rating with value for money; I took a punt with Bali Asli Lodge and was well rewarded. The room was very clean and it was easy to stay cool in the heat with the big overhead fan. The floor of the shower is filled with large smooth pebbles which was definitely novel. The place was actually filled with nice small touches like this, which the photos don't really do justice to; the walkway in goes over a small pond with fish swimming in it, which was not the worst way to start days or end them. Bali Asli Lodge backs onto a small creek as well, with some foliage between you and it, so you get the sound of running water and bird/insect song from the balcony. Ketut, Made, Alit and Wayan are super friendly and helpful, and will sort you out for anything from morning coffee to your laundry; take Ketut up on the rice paddy walk option, you will see and learn a lot about the local area you would not otherwise. There was no bar fridge in the room, which might be an initial cause of consternation for travelers usually used to them, but cold drinks are kept in the fridge at reception and they will bring them down to you if you message them on whatsapp. Bali Asli Lodge is a 10 minute walk up a hill from the main strip, which can be a drag at the end of a day of walking around, but if you hire a scooter you can tear that up in about a minute. There is also a shortcut through the massive bamboo forest at the end of the laneway, which has monkeys playing around in the higher branches at certain times of the day. I saw fireflies in there on my last day as well.

The wonderful Balinese house. Very kind owners and we felt at home.Possibility to rent a scooter directly on the location.

The room is lovely, with a nice view into the nature. But the best part are the hosts. The entire family is just so nice, always checking in if everything is alright. We could do our laundry, rent a scooter and get transport to the airport for a very reasonable price.

Absolutely beautiful view, you feel like in a jungle! The staff was extremely helpful, lovely, respectful and very kind. It was very special for us to stay there! Highly recommend!

Host and family were lovely. Loved being able to look out onto woods.

The only thing for me was that the gym and yoga studio had me walking loads per day, but then I accepted Alit's scooter hire offer and that fixed that.

I loved this homestay lodge. Alit is extremely welcoming and warm hearted. As her family resides there, the lodge had a very safe, warm and community feel to the whole space, which I loved especially because I travelled solo. The room was very clean and has everything you need. The rooms backdrop is nature, so people can also enjoy sitting out on the patio relaxing. The most cutest doggies and the beautiful bright and friendly kids running around topped it off for me also. I highly recommend this homestay. There are also some awesome cafe restaurants within a very close walking distance which I thoroughly enjoyed. Some mornings, the lovely ladies provided me with coffee and breakfast which was delicious and a more convenient choice some mornings too.

Had a great stay here in Bali Asli lodge. Our room have a nice balcony… kind of a jungle view… peaceful surroundings,..can hear the birds in the mornings, crickets & bugs at nights. That’s how peaceful it is..we love it! Wifi works great. Helpful and very accommodating family of Ketut and Alit.

I booked connection to Gili Air through them, which wasn't a great service. On top of being more expensive than other options, the ferry was 2 hours late and leaked into the seating area. The company doesn't seem to have an online presence to leave a review. I understand this is common with ferries in this area, but was still a little disappointed.

Alit was a fantastic host. So helpful and very friendly. The room was as advertised, clean and had a beautiful view of the local foliage from the porch.

The room was very damp. The bathroom needed a bit more ventilation.

Amazing little family compound - amazing to live in a traditional Balinese home. Comfy bed and pretty room. The owners were lovely and very helpful in organising things to do and motorbike rentals.

Nothing, all good.

We loved the family home stay. Ketut and family were lovely and they are very involved in community and the Balinese culture. It was also great to go on a tour with Ketut as he knows much about the area.

Staying here was a great decision—you are staying in a real family compound and they will take good care of you! Know that they can arrange tours, transfers and tickets, so it’s a one stop shop. Downtown Ubud is only a 15 minute walk, yet you feel like you’re staying in the jungle. There are roosters nearby, as anywhere in Ubud, so bring earplugs. Our favorite part was sitting on our back deck above the river to toast the coming evening.

Stayed in July 2023

Take a night mask and ear plugs for sleeping (roosters). The accommodation was a little bit far from the center.

We had a very good stay. The room is like in the photos in a family complex with beautiful surroundings. The family was very kind and sweet. Breakfast was basic. The room was cleaned every day. The manager offers transportation and visiting. Good value for money.
