About this house rental

Rumah Cinta, meaning the House Made of Love, is a large open-air home atop a ridge in Penestanan, at the edge of Ubud, close to the Camphuan Hotel. From the third story tower, you can see the sunrise, the sunset, volcanoes to the north, and the sea to the south. The rooms are large and airy, with large windows and doors that slide back to let the breezes through.

The first floor great room is large and beautifully furnished, with a living area and a reading nook with a view of the gardens and pool, and a Balinese-style kitchen: refrigerator, two-propane burners, but NO OVEN. The house is equipped with some cooking utensils and dishes, though the Balinese are such good cooks, you should rarely cook for yourself!!

The two downstairs bathrooms -- one off the great room and one off the downstairs bedroom -- are in lovely walled gardens with statuary and tropical plants.

The second-floor primary queen bedroom, which faces west for beautiful evening skies, has 2 decks with large sliding doors, an open-air bathroom, and a stairway to the tower and rooftop viewing area. Also upstairs is a second queen bedroom with an indoor half-bath.

Artistic touches are everywhere you look, both in the house and out. There are paintings by local artists, Indonesian carvings, carved wood and stone around windows and doors, high thatched ceilings and beautiful rock and tile work, all hand done.

This home is designed to be one with the outdoors, so even more beauty awaits you outside, where the gardens are dense but well tended, two temples protect the property, and the infinity-edge swimming pool offers a cool, calm retreat both daytime and at night. There are a toilet and a shower by the pool, in addition to the 4 bathrooms inside the house.

IMPORTANT -- PLEASE NOTE:
1) This home sits on a walking path high on a ridge -- its closest access from the main road is a flight of about 100 stairsteps. There are 3 other ways to get to the house, which involve many fewer stairsteps but longer paths from the road -- perhaps a 10-minute walk.
2) The house is designed to take advantage of the outdoors. It is outfitted with thick walls and breezy with ceiling fans, but it is not air-conditioned. And because I don't spray poisons on my land, you may have some geckos or other harmless critters pass through occasionally. .Please DO NOT RENT THIS HOUSE if any of these things will make you unhappy or uncomfortable.

This villa is absolutely stunning! Every part of it is gorgeous, the garden, the pool, the furnishings- just lovely. Pool and garden was cleaned daily, house cleaned every 3 days but water provided whenever needed. I absolutely loved this area, stunning to explore and lots of options for food easily (including vegan options). But don’t take the stairs lightly- there is a lot of them and it is the only way the property can be accessed by car. There is a closer path accessible by scooters only. I found the stairs beautiful but access can be hard especially with luggage. I was slightly nervous about no air conditioning- but the property was super comfortable and cool - the fans, mosquitoe nets etc worked really well. Some things to be aware of; this is definitely only 3 bedroom house, and the bedrooms and bathrooms are quite interconnected for instance bedrooms connected by stairs and without the ability to close a door between and the upstairs and downstairs bathrooms can see into each other. So if privacy is really important to your group consider carefully. We had a really, really lovely stay here that I will treasure forever, thank you so much!

Beautiful property in a great location out of the hassle of Ubud center . House is little outdated and needs some love Needs Termites treatment asap and replace the very old toilets .

Ruamh Cinta is an amazing villa in private, tranquil setting close to central Ubud. Indoor/Outdoor spaces flow perfectly and there are multiple places to relax. No need for air conditioning. We were very comfortbale with just the fans. There is a well stocked grocery store down the walking path and several excellent places to eat nearby. The staff is outstanding, very responsive and worked as a team. Brooke provided WhatsApp contacts so we could arrange transport for several of our party coming from and going to various parts. Nandito Kadek was our main driver for these trip and he also took us on a fantastic tour of artisan workshops and temples around Ubud. We were all impressed by how he navigated Bali traffic patiently and flawlessly. Juli was also an excellent, safe driver. Made took great care of us at the villa. Overall a really great stay. We highly recommend.

Villa is an 11 of 10 - minus the Air Conditioning makes an even 10 :) Our family had an amazing stay, travelling with children ages 13 and 11. The property is sprawling, plenty of room, and the ceiling fans brought plenty of breeze to in each room. Thank you, Brooke and team - hope to be back!

Beautiful villa in a quiet neighborhood with close proximity to an awesome cafe. Amazing rooftop views.

Brooke is a tremendous and gracious host. Staff is great. House is beyond compare, and very private. Pool is top notch. Neighborhood is good and safe. Motorcycle, although not required, will really help you make the most out of the area and Ubud in general because the walk to the main town or anywhere out of the neighborhood gets to be a bit much imho. That said, I look forward to staying here again.

Second time staying at the villa, Super place in a great location. Highly recommend. As the notes say, not a place to stay if you can’t manage lots of stairs, otherwise it’s brilliant.
