    From the location to the town, to the hot spring, to it's management and the services they arranged for us during the stay everything was spot on. Just note nearby resturants close by 9ish, some by 10ish, so must be prepared. The owner was super sweet, he dropped us back to Ubud, because all taxis were unavailable due to the local festival. We loved his recommendations on the nearby temples and the route taken. He also arranged a lava site jeep adventure for us with a beautiful sunrise experience. He also took us to a coffee plantation nearby. We loved the vibe of this place, such a relaxing getaway.

    Only complaint is more for the general area; the black flies are INTENSE. It’s a constant SWARM of them, not sure of that can be mitigated at all.

    Spectacular new property in the Mt. Batur area. It was spotlessly clean, and the layout was very comfortable. The onsite geothermal powered hot tub was a particularly nice feature. Spent a lot of time in it! The property manager was very communicative, and helpful in arranging excursions and rides. Would absolutely stay again!

    There is no food within the hotel.

    There is a lot of privacy with the hot spring within the premises. The view is also great overlooking the the lake and Mt Batur. I would rather use the hot spring facilities of the hotel than to use the public hot spring which lacks privacy but offers a great view.

    The only negative was some construction noise when we were in the pool one day but I think they would have stopped had we asked. They even checked with us on noice the next day after our hike, knowing that we may want to take a nap.

    This villa is in the most perfect location to take the sunrise hike up Mount Batur. You walk from the front door to the hiking trail and the owner will help organize your tour. It has an amazing hot spring pool to chill in. The room was very comfortable with a nice bed and pillows, plus the air conditioner worked very really well. The owner also helped transport us to the floating restaurant for a meal and provided information and transportation / transfers to Uluwatu during our stay. He gave us his WhatsApp and was available to answer any of our questions. He was super responsive and helpful. He even brought back Dramamine from Ubud when he knew we needed it from a pharmacy for the drive back OK out of town.

    Could have been a bit cleaner, there was a hair in the fridge, and the stains on the towels, otherwise very clean. Location is very remote, no decent restaurants within 10/15 minutes. But there is a handy shop across the road. Turning off the road can be hard to find too.

    Bed was very comfortable. The hot spring pool was very private and had a great view. Bathroom was nice and spacious. Good powerful shower, and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We would be happy to stay again.

    The hot spring pool was fantastic, with a really special view, and the room was really great, bigger than I expected. Eddie the host is lovely and very helpful, we really enjoyed our stay. Kintamani is a cool town, it was like being Jeff Goldblum in a famous David Cronenberg movie, but very happy and enjoyable and fun. The black lava is amazing to check out. Very worthy destination, and a wonderful place to stay!

    There are steep steps and the drop from the step into the pool is quite steep so it would not suit people with mobility problems

    It was lovely to escape the bustle of Abud and to be in a beautiful and quiet location. The garden that our room faced was beautiful and the hot affinity pool was amazing with views of the lake. We had delicious, freshly prepared Nadi Gorang and pineapple for breakfast at a small extra cost.

    The door was hard to close properly has to use the key or it will open automatically. However it is just a little inconvenience.

    In house Hot spring - what a treat to be able to enjoy hot spring inside the complex with beautiful view, especially at night time under the stars! Owner - Edi is so helpful on everything. Helped us arrange a good sun rise jeep trip and offer blanket as we did not bring warm clothe. Huge bed - felt like king size!? very comfortable Location - easy walk around to the convenient store. Edi recommended a local restaurant and we tried its yummy grilled fish and fish soup! We truly enjoyed our one night stay for the next day early morning Volcano tour (good to stay close as we were picked up at 5 not 3 or 4 if stay far away)

    The most comfortable bed I have had in Bali! My husband and I were only there for one night but we wish we had more since it was by far the most comfortable bed we have had in our two weeks here in Bali. The air conditioning was amazing. The natural hot springs pool was lovely, clean and felt private.

    Food was a challenge with the nearby outlets hardly opening.

    Quaint little piece of Bali that we appreciate. Quiet and cozy corner with a much appreciated hot spring pool which saves us a trip to the Batur Hot Springs nearby with an added benefit of a almost private spot.
