Discover a rare gem in Bali – a cozy, charming, freshly renovated apartment with spacious kitchen and bathtub. Nestled within a family compound, this inviting space seamlessly combines Western standards, privacy, and comfort with an authentic Balinese lifestyle. The 2-story building is nestled within a traditional family compound in Ubud. It's a captivating scene on ceremonial days to watch the family engage in prayer, offer tributes, and adorn their temple, offering guests a genuine glimpse into Bali's culture. The family also owns a small restaurant, 'Warung Makan Ibu Nyoman,' in the front, catering to locals. The apartment is at the back, far away from the busy road, on the top floor of the 2-story building, with its own lockable separate entrance. Newly fully renovated, it comes with all the amenities you require. The AC is new and will be serviced quarterly. The entire top floor is yours! :). You can access all you see in the pictures, of course. There is a small garden right in front of the building, where you can also park your motorcycle and some roosters in the back. From the living room, you have access to a small balcony. Our cleaning lady, Ibu Wayan, will come twice per week to clean and change the bedsheets and towels. If you have laundry, please let her know that you want it cleaned for 15,000 IDR per kg. She will bring it back next time or, at the latest, after a week. If you need faster laundry service, there are several laundry shops in the same street. You can check in without hassle, as the keys are in lockboxes just outside the door. We will let you know the code just before you arrive. This is also where you place the key when you check out. Roosters are a common feature in Bali, contributing to its unique charm. For a bit more quietness and mosquito-free evenings, we enclosed the living room and kitchen area.

Penestanan is the place where Bali long-term residents live. Many bars, restaurants, yoga places, spas, and nature activities are nearby. The best part is, you do not have to hassle with traffic as everything is nearby. However, if you still want to go to the center of Ubud, it's just a few minutes away. Restaurants: - La Luz (with many events such as Salsa, Movie night, improv theater, more on @laluzubud) - Plant Bistro (Vegan, perfect for a wonderful date)* - Zest (vegan ""posh"" place in Ubud)* - Bella by Sage (vegan)* - Alchemy (vegan) * I am not vegan, yet I eat here, because it's really tasty :). Cafes: - BGS Ubud - Coffee Bar - Kopi Pangeran Ubud - Yellow Flower Café - Schauberger Coffee Yoga: - Alchemy Yoga and Meditation Center - Nalanda Ubud Supermarkets: - Fruit Shop Ibu Abi (it's a 30-second walk away) - Bintang Supermarket Activities: - Campuhan Ridge Walk (the famous walk, perfect for a run in the morning) - Tjampuhan Spa (Sauna, Hot water, and cold plunge) The best way to get around is either to rent a motorcycle (800,000 IDR per month) or to use the apps GoJek and Grab to hire transportation. Bali is not really a place that is walkable. One exception is the area around our apartment; once you leave the main road of Jl. Penestanan and explore the small side arms.
