    None as such

    Located away from the hustle-bustle, surrounded by tall teak trees, the place feels more like a home and less like a hotel. The rooms are spacious, the pool is well-maintained and the staff is super friendly. Owner is very helpful. Riska and Ayu at the restaurant were very helpful. They even offered us local mangos. Asif - the all rounder driver, escort, guide and photographer - was amazing. The owner proactively helped us with local tips and transport.

    the swimming pool is not clean, the room number 8 is disgusting with the unbearable smell, luckily we have the chance to change the room for another, the very slow wifi

    the staff is very nice, the location is not far from the beach and restaurants, we took a large extra comfortable bed in fresh. the breakfast is delicious. I recommend you

    Awesome staff, super friendly and felt like a family. The guys were an upgrade to typical wooden huts on the island and the pool was awesome! Close proximity to harbor, awesome restaurants and beach clubs. Nice breakfast in the morning and all around enjoyable.

    this property is quite out of the way if you don’t have your own scooter and the roads are not the best in the surrounding area (which is not the fault of the property just something to keep in mind)

    the staff at the property were amazing always there to help. Kadek helped us arrange all our day trips etc. and made sure everything ran smoothly. We even had a driver organised to take us to dinner two of the nights as it was raining and we didn’t have our own scooter. during our stay the weather was very rainy but the staff made us as comfortable as possible

    A secluded paradise

    The location isn’t bad BUT there isn’t much close by. The roads on Nusa Penida are terrible so if your not fully confident on a bike, personally, we wouldn’t risk it. The power goes out quite a lot and sometimes no water. This wasn’t a huge problem, but something to bare in mind - island life! The walls are paper thin, we had room 101 and could hear the groups of men chatting outside the accommodation til they went to bed at night. If your a light sleeper you might want to consider taking some earplugs. There are SO many flies perhaps because it’s in a slightly more agricultural area, so make sure you come equipped with bug spray.

    This place is like a little secluded paradise. It is very peaceful and as pretty as the pictures in real life! The staff are so kind and make such an effort to ensure everything is good. The owner Kadek is a very warm man who makes you feel very welcome. They also serve a good basic breakfast. The rooms are spacious, there are chairs inside and on the balcony. The bed is really comfortable and we loved the mosquito nets that made the bed feel like a princess bed. There is a very good restaurant nearby called ‘The Chill’. If you are walking there at night you might want to make sure you have a torch as the roads are pitch black - BUT that does mean you can see some incredible night skies!

    the bathrooms could have been updated and cleaner.

    the owners are very nice and have a lovely dog called floofy roaming around the accommodation. the pool was nice and there are Sunbeds to relax on which are in the sun all day. the accommodation is a few mins bike ride to shops and restaurants but about a 25 min ride to the main port. this is nothing negative about the hotel but just a heads up if you book onward travel to the gili islands / Lombok with them it will be with Semeya One who do not leave from the main port that you arrive on they leave from elsewhere, however when we arrived from the main port we rented a bike from there, so when we had to leave from a different port we had to pay the man who we rented the bike off an extra 50,000 to collect the bike from the semeya one harbour. if we’d of known this we would have booked our onward travel online as it’s the same price and would have been able to leave from the main port and not had to pay the extra 50,000 (also we waited nearly 3 hours for our boat as always semeya one boats were late!)

    The bathroom could have been cleaner. We where kept up by a loud group of other guests, this was no fault of the hotels but maybe some security could be added as they where in the pool all night

    The property was in a good location, the pool and reception areas where clean and the staff where amazing and very helpful
