The general atmosphere and surroundings here are wonderfully relaxing. Stunning lush rural scenery from every angle in the grounds, from the warm pool and from the little porch of the cabin. Our host Made and his family are very welcoming, friendly and attentive without being in any way intrusive. Made's English is excellent and we had some interesting conversations about life in northern Bali. Breakfast was simple but delicious. We only had dinner there one night but it was very nice. There are also several other decent options for dining out in the local area, some within walking distance. The location was very convenient for our diving activities which departed from the little Sumberkima harbour just down the road. Loved the outdoor bathroom. The bed was very comfortable. Also highly recommend the massage service available.

The cabins are a charming traditional wooden design but lack insulation and there is no ceiling fan, so the little aircon unit struggled to keep the temperature at a comfortable level. It was very hot in October, and even though we are from Darwin and used to the heat, we are also used to having ceiling fans everywhere and we really felt the lack of one. Natural ventilation could be improved if the door to the outside bathroom had a hook on it to hold it open when wanted. The local mosque is quite close and we were woken by the loudspeakers every morning around 5am - they seem to start up even before the roosters. I suppose one gets used to it eventually.

Wow- What a gem!. We stayed here last week for 3 nights and Made and Nila did everything to make us feel welcome. We were the only guests (but it was low season) . There are four beautifully clean lumbung style rooms overlooking the rice paddies and the Menjangan hills. Our room had great air conditioning, comfortable beds and the bali style outdoor bathroom is among the best we have come across. It is walking distance to other great restaurants but Nila’s cooking is superb so if you don’t want to go out you can stay in and enjoy some fantastic food. Made organised our snorkelling and transport needs at great prices without any hassles. We had some great conversations with Made during our stay and learnt more about the Balinese culture and beliefs on this visit than we had in 20 years of visiting the island. Thanks for a wonderful time. We will definitely return!

This place is a hidden gem! Located in a nice, quiet area, in a small village in north of Bali, far from the tourist crowds where muslim and hindu people live in harmony. The villas are big, very clean and comfortable, with wonderful outside bathrooms. The garden is actually a rice field which brings a relaxing feeling to the place. There is also a small restaurant for the guests on the property and a pool, perfect after a hot day🥰 The owner is really nice and helpful, he also arranged a great massage for us and recommended a place to eat, as the restaurant was closed the evening when we arrived because of a village ceremony - where we were invited the next day🙏🏼. Also we were greeted with cold coconuts, a small detail that brought us joy. We would totally recommend the retreat and for sure we will come back for a longer stay.

Nothing to mention, everything was great.

Absolutely idyllic! We were going to stay for 2 nights, we extended for 5 nights in total. The rice fields, the mountains, the stars at night… The beds are super comfortable. The wooden bungalows couldn’t be cozier. The outdoor bathroom is fantastic. The swimming pool right there. Great homemade food! Everything is spotless, the cleanest accommodation I’ve stayed at and seen in Indonesia. For the record, this is my 5th time in this wonderful country. Made, the owner, and his wife, the nicest people you can imagine. Ketut, the driver who they provided us with is such kind person. They all are always willing to make your stay easy and comfortable. We will definitely come back for an even longer stay!

We think that was the best place we have ever been to. And we traveled all over the world. Made and his family were really nice, polite and helpful. The place was clean, comfortable and in the middle of a beautiful landscape. We definitely recommend a stay here

Absolutely stunning slice of paradise that is very private despite the stretching views of the mountains/fields. The pictures on the website are true to life, and there are no sneaky camera angles or nasty surprises like so many other places I’ve been to have! My room and the whole facility was ridiculously clean, and the highlight of the whole experience is the hosts themselves. I have visited Bali many times and their hospitality really stands out. Nothing is too much trouble, and they were more than happy to accomodate my dietary restrictions and have a hot meal ready and waiting for my 8pm arrival. As a woman traveling alone, they made me feel incredibly safe my entire stay.

By the nature of this part of Bali generally, I recommend that no matter where you choose to stay, if you’re a light sleeper; pack some ear plugs! The morning combination of roosters and the local mosques certainly had me greeting the morning earlier than I would normally. On the upside, the view of the micro-bats, birds and misty hills was absolutely breathtaking at that time of the morning!

Made has been an outstanding host. One of the best we had during our Bali’s trip. He’s kind, discreet and will exchange about the Balinese culture thoroughly. Our discussion will stay in our mind for a long time. The cottages are clean, cute and the pool with the view in the rice fields is soothing and peaceful. Moreover, his wife is an incredible cook as we ate the fish with the special Umma sauce that was very tasty. I can’t recommend enough to drop to Umma Bali if you are staying around Permuteran area. He will lighten your stay. We will definitely come back if we are in bali again. Thanks Made

Unfortunately, neighbours can be a bit noisy during the day but that didn’t bothered us too much.

Very friendly and agreeable host. Made did everything to make our stay comfortable. He booked snorkeling trip for us even it was late evening. I could borrow his motorbike to get some diner in town. I highly recommend this beautiful place. We saw lots of animals in the park (black and grey monkeys, wild boars, and deers), amazing beautiful coral reefs to visit by snorkeling at menjangan island.

The equipment provided by the snorkeling tour was not fitting our mensuration (fins size). The informations regarding how to do treks in the national park are not very clear. The West Bali National park is actually the most dirty place I have seen there, more plastic than sand on the beach. Most probably trashes come from Java island, such a pity for a natural reserve.

The hospitality of the owner. He helped us organize excursions. Such as the boat trip to the dolphins or the cultural trips to the nearby temples.Very nice and quiet room. Nice view of the rice field. We would definitely go back. Side note: I am going to send a video of the property to the owner. So he can share it on social media.

To be honest there was nothing disappointing.

We stayed here for 2 nights during our trip in Bali. This retreat, which is located in a small rice field, has a nice view on the nearby mountains. It is owned and managed by the host Made & his family. They are very kind, helpful and hospitable people. It’s possible to book several activities in the surrounding area from the retreat. We booked a snorkeling tour and it was totally worth it. The host also helped us book a dinner at a nearby beach. I highly recommend this stay if you are looking for a peaceful place to reside in North-Wast Bali.
