My room window looked at the main lobby so not the most private but I saw they have other rooms that looked more private. They advertised a lot of activities like yoga and a spa, but it's actually on demand and there is no spa facility. Massages are given in the room.

Very quiet, nice pool overlooking rice paddy with some walking options nearby. Very lovely staff. Very balinese atmosphere and style. I liked the open sky bathroom. The massage was good.

Remote resort, where rooms a scattered over a authentic Balinese village amidst the ‘Sawah’ (rice terraces). Very safe vibe, beautiful rooms and gorgeous nights on the porch listening to all the Balinese evening sounds. Frogs, tokeh, cikcak and on the background a bit of traffic noise from the main road a few kilometers away. We enjoyed the peacefulness a lot. Restaurant is good as usual the breakfast. Rooms are spacious and have a nice romantic canopy bed with mosquito net. Airconditioning works great. From your veranda you can stroll through the rice fields. In an adjacent forest plot there is an natural water source and temple used for spiritual cleansing. Short walk. Overall peaceful and spiritual place. Bring a good book and the pool and surroundings do the rest. Lot of things are offered on this resort. Cooking classes, massages, spiritual cleansing, Balinese marriage. 2-3 nights will do as it is quite remote

Unfortunately the first night we were there there was a very loud gala night, that we were not forewarned about. However it did stop at 8.30pm thankfully. Be aware there's no TV in the rooms (despite saying they're included on booking.com). Also the location is really far away - which is great for peace and quiet but does mean that some planning is needed if you don't want to eat at the hotel.

We loved swimming in the pool, overlooking the rice fields! Generally quite a tranquil place to stay and somewhere a bit different from the tourist spots. Our rooms had an outdoor shower which was very nice! Hotel restaurant was really nice and the staff were delightful.

Interesting to stay in a Balinese compound owned by decendants of the royal family. Very peaceful and rural. Also handy to UNESCO Taman Ayun Temple in Mengwi

Wow. That should summarize our stay at Puri Taman Sari Resort. Beautiful suranding in and outside of the resort. Very comfortable rooms and even outside shower which added to the spa feeling. Delicious breakfast served on the veranda overlooking rice feelds and the grounds of the resort. Infinity pool with an amazing view. And the staff so friendly and attractive to all our needs. I guess we should not prise the resort publicly and keep this to ourselves but this gem is too wonderful to be kept a secret. Special thanks to Donny for welcoming us to the Puri Taman Sari Resort. We will be back.

We were disappointed with the lack of vegetarian options at the restaurant. And we were charged the same price for meals without the meat and egg which was disappointing. However the staff did try their best to make meals satisfying for us, and for that we are grateful. I was also sad to see cows tied up all day every day at the top of our bungalow grounds, even though I know this is life for them in Bali.. It still upset me to see it.

We were super fortunate to have the whole of the lower grounds to ourselves. The pool was refreshing, the views stunning, with beautiful ceremonial grounds at the end of the path. The sounds of frogs and other wildlife was a bonus at night time. And the staff always smiley and friendly, and willing to help! We would definitely return to stay here. The location is in a traditional Balinese village, and away from the crowds that are overtaking the peace in the south.

There are small things to improve: 1. Lighting in bedroom 2. Rails at Staircases and in Swimmingpool 3. Larger offer of wines (we wanted a bottle of local white wine for dinner- they only had red wine) 4. The holder for toilet paper was broken out of wall

Traditional Balinese House. Nice and quiet location with view into Rice-Fields Friendly staff.

The day beds on the veranda in front of our room were not comfy to sit on; the back was too low. Also some of the rooms are not in the main compound and it meant that some evenings we would have a crowd from a tour owalking past our room to one of the exits although there is another entrance next to the main office which they could be directed to. Small complaints as this is a wonderful spot

The special thing about Puri Taman Sari is how closely it is part of village life: Dinner at the nearby Mengwi Night markets with the locals; cycling through hidden rice fields and villages with a local, Wayan, who, when my husband came off his bike into a water channel alongside a rice field whilst taking a selfie, treated his cut traditionally with banana tree bark; being invited to Wayan’s family compound, home to 9 relatives’ families; Hearing the village gamelan orchestra practising on evening and when we went to watch, being invited to join in….These sorts of experiences are not common on holiday in Bali…. On top of all this, the hotel is lovely- really tranquil with beautiful traditional buildings. Staff friendly and helpful, manager Donny happy and able to arrange anything.

Not major things, just suggestions to make it even better. Would have been good if our room had a small fridge to keep drinks cool. And being in the middle of nowhere, it would be good if they had some snacks to buy, so during the day you could grab a bag of crisps or something like that. Next time we go, we'll stock up on snacks before we get there. These are not things we didn't like just suggestions to be helpful.

What a wonderful first few days in Bali at the Taman Puri Sari. Beautiful spot to rest and relax, very quiet, isolated, away from the noise and bustle of other spots in Bali. We had one of the suites down the river, to sit on our patio looking out over a tropical paradise was a joy followed by a cool swim in the pool. Lovely massage in the glass house, a walk in the paddy fields, good food, it was a lovely place to spend a few days. Staff are very friendly. If you want somewhere to relax, then this is the place to go. They do activities but we just spent our days reading, swimming and taking it easy. We will be back.

So beautiful and peaceful

Only criticism is that the bathroom could do with updating.

Puri Taman Sari is set in beautiful gardens and is very welcoming. We particularly enjoyed our cookery experience and learning more about Balinese foods
