Max and I loved staying at the surf hostel! We never wanted to leave. We met some amazing people, it is in a great location in South Kuta, and the private rooms are quite nice as well as the dorms. Yana set us up with a motorbike rental and was so sweet and helpful. Really enjoyable and we would love to return! Thank you, Yana 3

Awesome! Nice place, nice people around, great host, near so many beautiful beaches! Thank you Yan & mama Warni! Definitely will come back and suggest to our friend!

It's a quiet location, close to the nice beaches in the south. You can rent a scooter there or ask for the bicycle if you can stand the hills. This location is not really for the partygoers, there's an Irish pub but that's not a recommendation. Of course you can always go to Kuta with the taxi. The rooms are very quiet and clean. The shared toilet and washing facilities are reasonable, given the location. Yan is a nice bloke who will give you lots of nice advices where to go to and how.

Awesome host! Everything I could have asked for and more. Yan is a great guy and the place is perfect. Great way to get to know other people as well and feel at home as soon as you arrive!

Yan was very nice before our arrival. He cared for us and answered all my questions (which were a lot). He organized everything and when we arrived we felt safe everything would go well. The driver was waiting for us at the airport and was such a nice person, trying to explain a few things about Bali in the three english words he knew. However, when we were driving through Bali to the destination I became more and more suspicious. At some point there were only a couple of houses and stray dogs in sight. After about 1 hour drive we got to the house in the middle of nowhere. We were heartly welcomed and taken to our room. The room was very basic, only a bed and a small cupboard (which is totally fine for a few days stay). But, unlike the picture the room was incredibly dark. The fan was half broken, so the room was ridiculously hot and humid. The shared kitchen was pretty small but with enough space for everything, however, also very very dark (without windows). The lounge and pool area were very nice. The wifi only worked in the pool area and not in our room. The shared bathrooms though were horrible. Dirty, full of insects, no toilet paper, dark and hot. The room was way too hot to actually sleep or get ready for a wedding. Furthermore, I couldnt bare the thought of using the bathrooms. Thankfully my friends who were staying in a nice and modern villa invited us to stay with them so we quickly moved. Other than than everyone was very nice and lovely to us and of course easy going. I would recommend this place only to people who dont need a lot of space or luxury and dont mind dark, hot rooms or are literally only there for sleeping.

Nice place for surfers.

The surf house is awesome! Nice people, relaxed atmosphere, everybody is really helpful and it is the best place for holidays in bali...

Staying in the surfhouse was great. Yana, mama Warni and the housekeepers were excelent hosts. They were very helpful all the time and they will give excelent advice where to eat, shop and about all the beaches. I will be more than happy to come back here again.

Villa is great! Very amazing place, clean, beautiful with high speed wifi and close to everything! 5min to the beach, 10min to the airport, 15min to Kuta

Riyo's place was an amazing find. Just 5 minutes from the beach but settled back in a quiet side road, you get the best of everything. His house is beautiful, new and immaculately maintained. I've never had a bed that comfortable in Asia! Communication was easy and quick and Riyo facilitated our early arrival with no problem. Will recommend his place to friends and family. A+.

Mali Raj will always be our 1st choice to stay if we plan to visit Jimbaran again. There was nothing we can find fault staying at Mali Raj!

One of the best places I have stayed in Bali. Very nice, clean and greatly furnitured villa with large pool. Open terrace with well equipped kitchen and places to relax. The second floor with working space, small kitchen and chairs. The bedrooms are combined with wardrobes and bathrooms. Very clean and comfortable. The wood furniture is all made by Riyo Endy and it is really stylish and good to use. Riyo was sooooo attentive and hospitable. He has helped us with car rent and massagist ( highly recommend). Villa is located on private road, very close to the ocean (7-10) minutes walk. Pretty sure I will stay in this place next time, though it is booked almost all the time. Dont forget to pet two balinese dogs living next door. They are cute.

very good value for money

It's an amazing house with perfect location, outsatnding swimming pool and amenities. Endy is a perfect host, ready to answer all your questions instantly!

My wife and daughter stayed at the house for 2 weeks. Rio and his wife, help us all time staying. The house looking even better on real, than in the photo. Everything you need included. Swimming pool is awesome. Stuff clean house 3 times per week. We enjoyed our stay. I wish all the best to the owners. Hope we comeback soon.

We enjoyed our stay at the villa! All facilities were at the highest level. Very comfortable and reasonable price villa where everything is thought out to the last detail. Pool is very clean and big. Riyo is very open, responsive and helped to solve our problems that not related to the villa. Riyo, thank you very much! We are waiting for our next stay!

Beautiful home! And very helpful friendly people. We had a great stay, we are hoping to return soon - we walked to a nearby restaurant for dinner and did yoga on the patio first thing in the morning. The breakfast was phenomenal, and the family dogs were friendly and great company :) I'm sad that we had to zip off to catch our boat to the Gilis, but we loved it here! Highly recommend anyone in search of a place to stay. Gino was great to talk with and was more than willing to give us travel advice. Looking forward to booking another stay here during this trip!

Gino and his family are exceptionally sweet hosts. Their property is a true paradise, artful, private, and spacious. The room was quiet and overlooked the bay and a beautiful farmland where little kids played with cows and dogs and chickens and picked fruit after school. Each morning a big, delicious breakfast was served on the balcony. Gino was nice to say hello and have a laugh while we were surfing the same break in Nusa Dua. The location of the house is great because it's right next to the highway (but down the street so you can't hear the traffic) so I could get to the beautiful beaches of Nusa Dua in minutes. This airbnb is the ultimate surf vacation :)

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 1 night because we wanted to be within walking distant from the immigration office. It was a perfect location for that reason. The garden was beautiful and all the dogs were super cute and friendly. Gino was great at answering my messages right away and providing necessary information. The room itself was rather disappointing for the price. When we first arrived it didn't seem like the bed sheets were changed as there were stains and hair on them. Gino had them changed as soon as I asked. When we arrived back to the room after spending some time at the beach we found a big cockroach in the bathroom which we had to kill with some baygon. Maybe we had bad luck with the room since I've only read good reviews on Airbnb, but again I don't feel like the price we paid was justified.

Unfortunately, my flight was severely delayed so the night I was scheduled to stay with Gino I ended up staying at my sister's place. Therefore, I cannot comment on the accommodation, but Gino was very helpful all throughout the process of booking the room and providing information about our upcoming stay in Bali. He offered to arrange an airport pickup and explained the circumstances surrounding the Nyepi Holiday. I would recommend Gino mainly through his attentive and care as I cannot comment on the accommodation.

We had such a lovely stay with Gino and his family! All of them were so welcoming and friendly and we really enjoyed our time with them. Their house and garden were fantastic, very clean with a comfortable bed, enough space for the two of us and great views! Gino and his family helped us a lot with advice what to do and where to go as well as with organising a scooter for our stay. Great hospitality, delicious breakfast, comfortable room - we highly recommend Kubu Kusambi to everybody!

Thanks for letting me stay in this special family home. Really liked staying here. Was a real oasis and the gardens were beautiful. Hosts were very nice and happy with great recommendations on things to see. Breakfast was great, room good and very secure. Got to relax in my room with late checkout allowing me to leave at my leisure on my last day in Bali. Dogs on property super friendly. I recommend. Even had cows out the back.

Gino and his family were very welcoming and shared their time and knowledge with us on how best to experience and see South Kuta. The property and gardens are incredible, they make you feel like you've wondered into a forgotten art, Gino's father told us about all the beautiful array of flowers in his garden. This homestay provides absolute peace and great, friendly service away from the buzz from South Kuta. Gino's mother whips up an amazing breakfast of bananas in many forms, omelettes with fresh coriander, toasted sandwiches and fresh fruit, all which can be enjoyed from their upstairs terrace with a view of the nearby ocean. Gino and his father also helped us organise transport to the surrounding beaches and temples. The accommodation is clean, spacious, comfortable and private, with a great view out onto the lush tropical garden, complimentary water is a bonus. Lots of friendly dogs on the property who enjoy greeting you when you get home from exploring the nearby areas.

my parents could not stop raving about this place. i booked one night only as this is close to the airport. they were served tea at ten pm at night by the host. and the whole family got up at 2 am to see my parents off. the room are big and full of character.

I feel like homme!

Natalia's house is a nice clean house located in a calm area. All the beaches are about 20 minutes from there. The room has a table which is great to work with laptop. It was lovely to stay there!

We had an amazing time at this villa. Beautiful garden and it actually looks better in real life then the pictures. Staff was wonderful and communication was quick and easy. Motorbikes and transports was organized for us very good.

Great villa to stay in. Heaps of backyard space for kids to run around, friendly staff, great pool and rooms are lovely. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in that area.

The villa was perfect for the 4 of us- really clean, wifi, great pool, nice outdoor showers with warm water, and close to some amazing beaches. Tip: if you can get a local SIM card so you can contact management if you need help. The villa manager helped me with transportation on many occasions. They were usually very responsive. We also arranged for massages and that was very nice. However there was discrepancy between what villa management quoted us for price and the amount the massage therapists wanted. All was remedied in the end. The only complaint was that the driver we set to pick us up from the airport was late. I understand this was due to traffic, but frustrating nonetheless (especially because at this point I did not have a way to contact management to let them know).

We stayed here as a couple for 4 nights. The description was accurate and the villa looks like the pictures. The pool and large lawn was quite a nice place to relax in the morning as we planned our day. The neighborhood is more in the country and wilderness which made a quite and peaceful stay coming from a big city. There are nearby cafes and stores, within a 5-10 minute drive. We did enjoy our time in Bali, and all staff for the villa seemed nice, however the on-site management for the villa was difficult to get a hold of -- gaining responses 24 hours after our inquiries while we were there. Additionally, since the villa is in the wilderness, the villa had many creatures -- geckos, frogs, bugs, etc. This place would be ideal for 2 couples, or a family with older kids, as one bedroom entrance is outside and the other is inside.

It was our lucky day when we have found this villa. Really good location in quiet place in Ungasan. If u have a scooter u will have no problem with transportation otherwise use Uber etc. many warung in the are, 5-7 min by bike to Dreamland, 15 min to the best surf spots on Bali, 20 min to Nusa Dua. No huge traffic and crazy Kuta's lifestyle. Loved our "dacha" (out of town cottage in Russia located in wild nature). Fully furnitured. Cozy garden and pool. One thing we missed - bbq area, had to bbq outside the house area. BTW, because of the location near the jungles, be prepared for bugs, mosquitoes, we have seen some scorpio and a snake ( bot venomous but nevertheless we werent happy about it). Still the staff was really helpful about any issue we have faced to. Thank you Stella!

The villa is really lovely, clean and feels really luxurious. Beautiful pool and garden, big beds with nets and really nice Balinese outdoor en suites. can't fault the villa itself. Our problems were with location as we didn't have a car and so we were spending a lot on transfers and taxis to get us to the main areas like uluwatu temple and the nearby cafes / markets. The other problem which can't be helped was we were eaten alive by mosquitos. We would wake up with 30 new bites despite lighting coils and using spray! But that's just because it was such a green beautiful setting. We loved our stay all in all!! Felt like a holiday which as travellers we needed.

My husband and I stayed at this villa for 24 nights in September. We had our own little oasis with beautiful comfortable villa, private clean pool,many birds flying in the yard with palms and garden flowers and gekons speaking under the roof. The villa has everything you need for living and sleeping comfort. The staff is very friendly and always helpful. The beatiful beaches are not far, but you need a car! Dreamlamd is about 10 min. by car, Pandawa is about 20 min. The beaches are good for swimming, surfing, collecting sea shells... Kuta is a bit far... We could take a way about 40 min. by taxi and find many restaurants for lunch or dinner or buy some groceries in supermarket and cook a wonderful meal in an equipment (URL HIDDEN) was a great time! We did not want to leave. Thank you, Stella. It was an excellent experience and we would like to visit Bali again!

Problems from the offset, accommodation booked for 3 nights subsequently informed the villa overbooked and alternative lodging provided for first night. Booked transport through host was not at airport upon arrival, organised own transport and had difficulty locating villa because of remote location compounded by the fact there there where no staff at the villa when we finally arrived. Had to cook own breakfast upon arrival and booked massage not provided. Wifi in villa very poor only limited access to websites. Transfere of luggage from villas not carried out by villa staff, we performed this task ourselves in the dark up a lane with no lighting. On the morning of our departure we had no water for a shower.

These place is s(PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) nice , I can't say more than just: you have to go there!!!!! Nice clean luxury villa in quiet surrounding with a beautifull view! Everything was perfect!

Very agusto in the room, highly recommended !!!

Easy access to the main road if you want to explore the area. Very good value for money. Miko is very welcoming and helpful!

Very beautifull place and near to uluwatu and the best beaches in bali

Miko, the host is a very helpful guy. He picked us up when we didn't know where to got in the resort, went to buy shampoo and mosquito spray and was always there via (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) if we needed anything. BUT we would definitely not come again to this accommodation. The room was very untidy but not as bad as the shared bathroom. The staff is living next door but we were wondering what they were payed for. Sheets on the bed didn't seem to be a fresh one and geckos were pooing on the bed which you can avoid with mosquito net. The pool which is shown actually doesn't belong to the room, it's only.for use if there is no pool staff. All in all, we would not come back although Miko is a great and helpful guy.

A little paradise! Miko are realy helpfull. The place is Nice and calm. The swiming pool amazing! We recommand it.

My stay was very positive and I can recommend other to stay there. It's a good price for a good standard.

Excellent.. He is very good at english..

We felt really comfortable, the bungalow was much better than expected. The owner is friendly and helped us in every situation. There is a wonderful pool and a big garden only for you. All in all it was a perfect stay and we were so sad to leave!

Didn't meet Yan but Yana his mum was lovely and very accommodating. Relaxed place to stay. We were indecisive with our plans but Yana was so polite about it. While it's a little bit away from the beaches as said, the scooter ride is a great way to see everything and get lost on all the back paths. Thanks again Yana, lovely to meet you and good luck with the surfing :)

On the end we can not say a lot to this house, because they brought us to an other house with no AC but Pool (we didn't use) and Fan (we used a lot). It was fine .

Hello everyone What can i say about my expérience in the villa .... The villa is very quiet if you need rest in Bali go There !! If you are a surfer ans you want to surf the World known spot in south Bali go There !! If you want to meet Nice people and share beautyful moment go There .... Yana Was very Nice with me ... Helping me At anytime to give the right advice ... In the morning she Was here to say enjoy your day and in the evening she Was here to ask how Was your day i am pleased to met you ... What about mama warni !!!! Shé's very Nice !!! Yan i met him Only Twice but we spent a beautyful days in the manta trip !!!! I spent 20 days in that villa and i enjoyed a lot my stay !!! I mer wonderful people There !!!!Close your eyes and go There ... Sorry for my bad english ;-) i Will go back There for sure

My host made me feel very welcome there are maps telling you where you can eat and surf ect. If your by yourself it's a good place to visit as group trips are organised I missed out on that as I was doing something else but was nice to be offered :). The house itself is really cool especially the chill out area. My Room was good just as described but the lighting in the room could be better the ensuing was a tad dark (near the mirror) and the bedroom lights are very bright when laying on the bed. Had a good time here :)

Yana and Yan were great hosts! The villa was very comfortable and the people and the atmosphere amazing! My boyfriend and me enjoyed our stay really much. With the scooter, we could directly rent at the villa, it was easy to reach many exciting spots on the south island and Yana and the other guests are likely to help with recommendations for surf spots, sunset views or places to eat or buy mangos. Our room with a private bath was large, clean and with an AC! So it was easy to recover from a long hot and sunny day. I took also part in a Yoga class, which was in the evening with a stunning night view. We also took our first surfing class and we were absolutly enthused! The next time we will come to Bali, we will definetly visit Yana and Yan again!

Yans place is awesome. Great host, place is a lot of fun, good living conditions, basically everything I was looking for, and most importantly close to waves.

If you are planing to surf in Bali, here you have a good place (just if you are planing to surf!). Yana is helpful and nice, and Rafa, one of the houskeepers, is also very nice. There's a girl, also houskeeper, who isn't that nice, she's not helpful at all and she is so rude that when you come in she avoides saying hello to you. Hygiene: they have a made doing nothing at all, and pushing you to buy coconuts all the time. The room was dirty, the bed sheets seemed to be used before. The mirror in the badroom was so dirty that you could not see your face in it. We did not use the kitchen for the same reason. We asked for towels and the girl mentioned before just gave us one for sharing for two (my boyfriend and I), same for the three days (they did not have more clean towels) and it had a big hole. I would feel embarassed to offer this towel to my guests. Quiet hours are not real, as they wake up early to surf and also some guests go to bed late and talk loud infront the rooms (2-3 am)There's also a thing that we don't really understand: we closed our room, as we had passport and importat things, and they always opened all the rooms, leting door and windows completly opened all the day. The dogs in the neighborhood are all the time barking, including the one in the house. To sum up: we paid four days and only stayed 3.

Nice surfhouse in a quiet place. The position is very good to reach all the beaches of the area by motorbike. Yan's mum is a great host: always happy to help with a smile on her face. The only downside was the bathroom (it tends to smell bad because of humidity and hot water is scarce). Overall, the place looks like the pics and the environment is very nice and friendly. Last but not the least, in the mornings you will have the pleasure to meet Mama Warni.. She is so lovely, always offering coconuts and bananas to everyone while chatting in a super funny indo-english! I'll miss her!
