Umma Bali Menjangan

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. Overall, however, a bit of morning noise did not detract from the aura of tranquillity that this place has.

Wow wow wow! So off the beaten track, yet so accessible and the location for Snorkeling Menjangan was just perfect as it was only a 15 minute drive away for us. The room itself was stunning, with all the amenities you need. The outdoor bathroom was so beautiful, and well thought out. Everything was so pretty. The rice fields at your front door. The hosts were so lovely and welcoming, and the pool was refreshing and a wonderful spot to sit and gaze out at the fields from. Access to earrings is only a 5 minute walk to the Main Street, but why bother when you have the best cooked meal in house as though you are staying at a 5 star resort.
