Absolutely loved our time here! The accommodation, staff, facilities and surroundings were amazing. Close proximity to rice fields and cafes, but you are also away from all the hustle and bustle. Will definitely come back, our stay was absolutely amazing!

Absolutely loved my stay at Surya Shanti Villa! Stunning views of Mount Agung and the rice fields, peaceful atmosphere, and beautiful villas. The staff were warm, attentive, and made me feel at home. Delicious food and an amazing infinity pools — the perfect place to relax and enjoy Sidemen. Highly recommended!

To improve the quality of your breakfast, you could slightly revise the offer with a few more options and perhaps improve the presentation of the Western breakfast dishes (specially the pancakes and sides with eggs) Otherwise, everything was perfect !

Everything was perfect, we had a truly memorable stay at the Surya Shanti. The hotel is a peaceful haven, where everyone is so kind and extremely helpful. The dishes are delicious, and we really enjoyed the restaurant’s cuisine. The yoga class is a wonderful activity, especially when combined with massages and the swimming pool. We were so sad to leave this place, but we are sure we will come back! Terima Kasih 🫶🏼

Everything. This place was really an amazing surprise and discovery for us from the very beginning. We arrived very late in the evening (around 11pm) and they took care of us preparing a dinner and all that we needed. Joel and his staff made our stay a real dream and made us feel a special connection to Sidemen and its people. All the staff is really welcoming and they are like a big happy family. The position is very peaceful and quiet and made us really feel as we were in paradise. There are 2 pools, one in the front with a view on the ocean and one in the rear side. They were able to meet our request of vegan food and they suggested us lots of very interesting and authentic activities to do in Sideman area. The rooms are very well equipped with all the amenities you may need. They also make free yoga classes in the morning from their amazing open-air shala. In case you need something specific or you have a problem, do not hesitate to ask Joel, they will immediately find a solution for you. Excellent price for what you get.

The most stunning property - views from the pools were gorgeous. Loved our room which again had a beautiful view and spacious. The host Joel and his team were so lovely and they even did a surprise birthday breakfast for me with a cake and gift which was very sweet. We went out on a moped tour of Sidemen too and to the waterfall.

Villas are bit dated and dark (the one we stayed in). We stayed in one of the last villas and didn’t have a wifi there.

Beautiful set up, friendly and kind staff, couple of free gifts like foot massage and drink. Very thoughtful.

Room could have been a bit cleaner. Bathroom was clean. Need to be mindful that there are quite a few steep steps up to the rooms for those less mobile/able bodied

The vista from the property was stunning. Lovely quite location high up in the hills overlooking the rice terraces. Big room with big bathroom, relaxing vibe

Beautiful location up in the hills, surrounded by lush rain forest. Amazing staff and really excellent restaurant that was also incredible value. It's quite a challenge to get there - the road very windy - but the effort is worth it. I didn't do much except relax and flop by the two infinity pools. One of the nicest places I've ever stayed in.

Far from crowds and traffic, decorated with taste, delicious food (Balinese with a French touch), gorgeous surroundings (2 pools with views, free rice fields hike), cooking class, yoga sessions, spa facilities / massages. We stayed in 4 hotels in Bali and this was the best one!

That our stay was too short! 😄

The owner of the hotel, Joel, was incredibly helpful, kind, and truly welcoming – as was the entire staff, who made us feel right at home. Our stay was enriched by a range of wonderful experiences, including: A fascinating cooking class with the warm and friendly chef Wayan A peaceful yoga session in a beautiful, serene setting An informative one-hour guided walk through the surrounding rice fields A visit to Pasraman Vidya Giri – a heartwarming and unforgettable encounter with the Balinese children A deeply relaxing one-hour meditation session with sound healing A complimentary and soothing welcoming foot massage The hotel also enjoys an excellent location and offers comfortable, beautifully designed rooms as well as two wonderful infinity pools.

Loved it all!

What’s not to love? The beautiful set-up, the ambiance, the views (!), the range of activities that were offered (some complimentary), the amazing villas with their outside bathrooms. And of course, the kind staff!

I loved it all.

Everything. Some of the best hospitality I came accross in Bali. I arrived earlier and they made every effort to prioritise getting my room ready earlier and allowed me a late breakfast whilst I waited. Great free yoga class with stunning backdrop.

The most beautiful place I’ve ever stayed! I stayed here as a solo traveler and loved my experience here. The views were gorgeous, and the room was comfortable. The staff members were friendly and helpful. Everything at the restaurant was delicious. The owner also helped me arrange a great scooter driver for a day trip. I will definitely stay here again the next time I come back to Bali.

Wow! What a nice boutique style place this is! Their bungalows are nicely located on a hill, providing a stunning view over Sidemen’s ricefields. With 2x swimming pools there is plenty of space for everyone to enjoy a tranquil holiday. Our 2x kids loved it! Their restaurant was really good. We had great food. Though, what makes this accommodation exceptional, is its staff that goes the extra mile for its guests. Thanks for hosting us. We enjoyed every minute of it! I would have rated an 11, if possible 😊

What can I say about this place - it was one of the highlights of our trip. Incredible family villa with stunning views over the pool and rice terraces. The food was exceptional, staff and owners incredibly welcoming and helpful. Even gave the kids a leaving gift. The gardens are immaculate and the two pool areas means there’s always a place to escape too for some peace or where the kids can let off steam without disturbing anyone.

This is one of my favorite hotels I’ve ever been in- the team are lovely and so hospitable, the location is gorgeous and off grid, and the amenities are great!

This family-owned guesthouse is a fantastic place located in an amazing landscape. The rooms are clean and well-built, 2 pools, very good food and breakfast provided. This is a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the authentic Bali, far from the crowd and tourist places. Highly recommended. Joel and Sylvie, the owners, are very kind and even had a cute attention for our son before leaving. Definitely an amazing place!

There was no electricity the first night in the upstairs ,so AC wasn't working and it was really hot , I didn't get any sleep the first night. They did comp my dinner because of the stolen phone issue. And they gave me a complimentary massage which was super nice. There also wasn't hot water in my room though.

The staff is so kind and accommodating. My phone was stolen out of my scooter while I was riding it and the staff helped me out so much in getting a new phone by taking me to a nearby town and helping with police. The rooms are amazing and the views are wonderful. Loved the pool. Food was pretty good.
