Pinokkio Bed and Breakfast

Excellent breakfast.

I was sick and we arrived before lunch; we could check in directly and the owner was so helpful and caring it was amazing. They have really high quality food, which was great for me staying at home in bed. Furthermore it is a nice Balinese style home, very clean and nice looked after..

We spent 2 weeks in Bali and moved between accommodations, but Pinokkio was the best of them by far. Nayoman is the most welcoming host we had and her tips and advices were exactly what we needed to enjoy our journey even more. She explained us how to follow the tides status and when to go to the beach. She even suggested activates and restaurants near to the other accommodations we had. She is an excellent cook, I would eat anything that she'll do. The bungalow we received was exactly like pictures if not better: beautiful design, clean, the bed really comfy, AC made the night temperatures bearable. The location is just perfect, 10min walking away to Garuda Wisnu Kencana, it is visible through restaurant's windows which is lovely. We used mostly Grab to get around anywhere in Uluwatu (max 25min to each beach). Was really easy and Nayoman helped with any question we had.

Not a minus for us, but be aware that Bali is full of stray dogs. Nayoman and her family take care of some of them (they have also cats around). I got a little scared when we arrived because the dogs bark to strangers, but they are not aggressive in any way, just make noise :D

The place is in a corner at the end of street. Comprising of joglos (wooden houses). My room was a cosy one bedroom joglo with all the amenities and a spacious bathroom. The garden and poolside were amazing too. The Wi-Fi was good as well. The place is walking distance from GWK cultural park. Bikes and taxis are easily available. I simply loved the main dining, kitchen and general living space in front of the guest house. It was such a friendly, family space where you can spend hours. The owner Nyoman is an amazing lady and host. We hit it off together right from the beginning. The breakfast every day was different and she prepared herself. Her team was super efficient and friendly, so were the dogs and cats. All in all it was a great stay. Would love to come back sometime again.

A recyclable water bottle with glass can be kept in the room as part of daily clean-up. Although it’s easy to get it from the community fridge, but sometimes one may not want to go out.
