There's a lot to like about this property. Beautiful location, great pool, nice shower. And a lot of tranquility. Most of all, amazing hosts! Asri and her family are great! Delicious breakfast also.

We simply cannot say enough good things about our stay at Pondok Sawah Asri. From the warmest of welcomes, to all the assistance that the family provided during our stay, as well as all they taught us about Balinesian culture, we felt very well taken care of and wish we had been able to stay even longer. The villa itself is lovely and perfectly designed for two people. The pool is beautiful and refreshing, and the garden is green and lush. It really is like staying in a private paradise surrounded by nature. Breakfast is delicious, prepared fresh every morning, and we even indulged in floating breakfast. Wayan (the son) helped us to set up a private tour with his uncle Didi, to the destinations of our choosing, which worked out perfectly for us and was very enjoyable. If you are looking for the perfect, peaceful place to stay in Ubud, with friendly and helpful hosts, this is the place. We can't wait to go back!

There was nothing we didn’t like

Everyhting! It was clean, beautiful garden, pool, everything! But the best part was Wayan, Asri and all their family. Super helpful, kind and nice people 🙏

No coffee or tea available, had to wait for it to be served at breakfast

Clean, comfortable & close to local bars and restaurants but only a 20min walk into the main area. We stayed 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience, Wayan and his family were the perfect hosts from greeting us on arrival to cooking daily breakfast at the villa (like a personal chef!) Nothing was too much trouble & we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Everything was perfect

Outstanding hospitality and service provided by Asri and her son Raditya (jr Wayan). We loved the stay, wish we could stay a bit longer. The breakfast was amazing. The villa and the private pool were clean. Restaurants were just around the corner. We loved the walk through the ally way. What we loved the most was the service provided by Raditya, he was just a WhatsApp message away, quick to answer all our questions, so humble and willing to go above and beyond to assist. We would definately come back again.

Nothing - we enjoyed the fact that it is located a short walk or scooter ride to the main road.

Our host family were so friendly, accommodating, and welcoming - we enjoyed the privacy, and the location of this cute villa which is a short scooter ride to the main road. The walk to the main road is also very enjoyable with several locally owned shops, restaurants, cafes and spas along the walkway. Wayan makes the most delicious breakfast! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and most definitely recommend :)

- i did not like the bathroom door because it was made of foggy glass which made the room too bright in the morning (we travelled with a baby) but if you don’t mind that’s ok

- location was nice, you can see a different part of Bali, even if it’s far from the center (you can always order something on Grab) - super friendly staff (they were so helpful with everything we needed) - nice pool - big, spacious villa

Peaceful and quiet place where you can really rest and relax Outstanding hosts, very friendly. Highly recommended this place.

Stayed in October 2023

We weren’t able to watch TV but that was due to a technical issue that I believe was all over Bali and not the owners fault. It was actually nice to have a break from it though! Being very picky here but the main door had a gap in it unless it was locked and it would’ve been nice to have more room on the bathroom basin for toiletries etc., though we made do quite easily. Perhaps a small table next to the basin could fix this? The bathroom can also get quite humid and hot but this wasn’t really an issue as the main room was well air-conditioned.

I liked how tucked away it was yet it was only a 20-30 minute walk into Ubud centre. The Villa isn’t accessible by car but the walk to the road is only about 5-10 minutes and the walk itself is nice, surrounded by lots of beautiful restaurants, cafes and small shops. The owners met us at the carpark and brought us and our luggage to the villa via motorbikes. The breakfast was delicious, Wayan makes the best banana pancakes! There is a restaurant close by that delivers food to the door, very good selection of food including vegetarian - a lot of the nearby restaurants cater to vegetarian which was a nice surprise for me. The garden and pool area is absolutely beautiful. I think it was great value for money considering the size of the property, the wonderful maintenance and service from the owners and the location.

We like the breeze there the view of the villa. Great environment peaceful night and stay. Besides that food was not a problem at all.

The property is showing it's age a bit, and the TV didn't work for the duration we were there. But overall, this is nitpicking, and we recommend the villa to anyone

The villa is truly private, and the hosts went above and beyond. Never we have experienced such hospitality, and everything we asked for was fulfilled with a smiling face. Location is good, breakfast was varied, the private pool was clean and big enough for swimming and the bed was comfy. Thank you Wayan, you were great, wishing you all the best.

The location is a bit tricky and Google Maps does not correctly direct to the place. Difficult access by car, but nothing problematic. The hosts were very kind in giving us a ride in their motorcycles!

The villa is amazing! From the wide areas to the nice decoration, we were very comfortable enjoying our room and private pool. The bathroom is perfect! Plus, Asri, Wayan and the whole family were very friendly and kind, always available to help us and cook fresh breakfast every morning. We intend to come back!

Nothing at all

Amazing villa in a great location! Hosts really helpful throughout and where always on hand to assist with anything! Would HIGHLY recommend staying here!!!!

We had the most pleasing experience in the Asri Villa. The accomodation was super cozy, the pool was perfect to cool down after a tiring day and the overall vibe was magical, filled with the sounds of nature. The family members were also always reachable via Whatsapp if we had some request related to any topics (e.g. breakfast, dinner, laundry, etc...). They also helped us on the last to transfer our bags to a nearby parking lot to our taxi. We would definitely come back again.

Nothing, loved everything about Pondock Sawah Arsi.

A family run business with excellent service exceptionally clean, well catered for, definitely planning to return in the near future, also the best fried bananas in Bali are Arsi's specialities.

We cannot think of a single thing that we didn’t like.

The privacy and the hosts. This is a standalone villa, inside a walled and beautifully landscaped yard with its own private pool. It is in an agricultural area about 1 km outside the center of Ubud that you can only reach by motorbike and by foot Because the pathways are not wide enough for cars. So it is peaceful and tranquil. The hosts met us at a public parking area with three motorbikes to haul us and our luggage A half a kilometer to the villa. We were surprised at first, but quickly came to see it as an advantage. The areas of Ubud that are accessible by cars are very noisy and hectic. The hosts, especially Wayan, are exceptionally friendly, attentive, and happy to accommodate any request. If we were to return to Uber would, this is where we will stay again. There are many restaurants and shops within a short, walking distance. Our favorite was Casa Curandera on a small footpath looking over the river. It has a small kitchen for storing and preparing your own food if you choose.

Nothing that we can think of, just be prepared to meet some friendly lizards around!

The property is a lovely villa in a quiet location on the outskirts of Ubud, perfect for couples. The Villa has a beautiful pool, great bedroom and bathroom, excellent wifi connection and various nice restaurants nearby. The hosts are a lovely family who will take care of you whilst you stay there and cook you fresh breakfast every morning! They truly make you feel like part of the family.

This is very beautiful villa where your hosts are very lovely family! We really enjoyed the place ! Wayan is great chef and he will also answer all your questions regarding Ubud, transportation, culture and everything else. At the check out we got very beautiful gift which was 2 sarums. It meant so much for us. Thank you and see you next time

The villa is beautiful, with a charming garden, nice swimming pool, well maintained and well located. Good value. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. For our 14th wedding anniversary, a magnificent floral arrangement has been made in the bedroom and bathroom.
