Pura Vida

Very peacful and quiet area

It’s a lovely private little spot with a nice jungly garden, a short taxi from restaurants and shops. The owner and the cleaning lady were super friendly and helpful! Allowed late check out, came around to help, plenty of drinking water, etc.

With the jungly garden came a large spider, a cockroach and frogs. A bit pricey given no pool and it’s not immediately close (walking distance) to any shops, services or sights.

Comfortable space, great communication!

I was not familiar with Uluwatu before coming. This location is perfect if you plan to have a motorbike. I could walk into town, but it’s very hilly and farther than I anticipated. I got a few Gojeks, but it took a while to have them come.

budget-friendly maybe

1. Room condition The overall setup was quite basic. There were a lot of unnecessary decorations, but daily essentials like facial tissues weren't provided. When I checked in, I noticed some stains on the toilet and the shower head, which didn't feel very welcoming. 2. Comfort and Service The air conditioner blows directly toward the head of the bed. The blanket provided was quite thin, making the room feel cold and dry at night. I asked the staff for an extra blanket, but they initially declined and then mentioned it would require an extra cleaning fee. This was a bit surprising to me, as usually, hotels or homestays provide spare blankets for free. Although it felt a bit odd, I agreed to pay. One staff member told me I could just leave the money on the table when checking out, but another person (perhaps the host?) said no and insisted on coming over immediately to collect it. 3. Housekeeping Room cleaning is scheduled once every three days, which means using the same bath towel for three days before getting a fresh one. Given how hot it is in Bali, this felt a bit impractical.
