“Not only is it set with a perfect view of Mnt Agun, the village of Sideman is amazing, quiet, lush, with so many things to see and places to eat. I stayed in the Loft above the cafe, it was huge. With a reading nook and a porch. It was clean and quiet. I wanted to stay forever. They serve strong delicious coffee, and a wonderful breakfast. And can set you up with a guide to take you wherever you want to adventure. ” Read more

“This lovely village is very beautiful and quiet. Amrita is located where you can walk to local restaurants and spiritual treatment centers. There are local crafts people who weave beautiful fabrics. Also a silversmith just down the street. Go for a walk with Nyoman’s Ecotourism for an incredible trek viewing some villages, rice paddies, beautiful views.” Read more

“Nice hostel with good coffee. The place is owned by a Japanese investor who hired two locals to build and run the place. If you stay here, you are really supporting a local family of farmers which is already a really cool thing. Apart from that, the view of Mount Agung is spectacular and Sidemen is the place to be to experience the real Bali without the bustle as well as the mafia. I really cannot stress enough how nice Nyoman and his cousin are and we hope to see them again soon.” Read more
