Maharatu is a hidden delight. Its away from the main strips, surrounded by silent jungle with views to Ceningan. Waking up for sunrise you’re greeted by the sun rising through the canopy to pure silence, broken only by the birds singing their morning chorus. The huts are one of the largest I’ve stayed in, beautifully presented with a huge private terrace. Great for yoga practice, working or chilling. And the bed - wow! Simply the most comfortable I’ve experienced anywhere in Bali! There’s also a huge, deep pool, a communal kitchen and a resident puppy. It’s literally got it all!

You will need to ride scooter. Not a problem for me, but fyi.

Very beautiful and spacious rooms. The bed is super comfortable and the outdoor bathroom was very clean and nice. Staff was kind and helpful and also the banana pancakes on the breakfast were very good. The kitchen is open so you can store water on the fridge which is very nice, they also have water refill. Pool is very big and it has a bridge to jump on it. The area is very quiet and isolated from the rest, which makes it very relaxed. Overall I do recommend this place, its a very good price for what you get.

There were minor things that didn't make this a 10/10. The first room we got the wifi was not working and the staff kindly changed us to another room closer to the router. Unfortunately on the second room it was the AC that was not working properly and we had no mini fridge anymore. There is a lot of gecko poo in the room since they are living on the roofs (not a problem itself, just a heads up). My biggest problem was the worn out toilet seats, they must be changed as soon as possible to a more weather-resistant material.

Exactly what you see on the pictures. Extraordinary atmosphere… if you're looking for a quiet getaway from the world. Very friendly staff, caring about you and always ready to help you. By scooter, you're kind of in the middle of the island, close to everything (max 10-12 minutes). Restaurants: Next door: Warung Putu, The Ratip. Fish: Warung Bambu (table on the beach, sunset), Indi Warung. More touristy: Let's bake (French, coffee, pastries, ice cream), Kayu, Karana, Acala, Lemongrass, Lgood.

Too many mosquitoes! 🤷‍♂️😉 Having to leave because of my visa expiration. More seriously 🤔 I guess some people could want a bit more furniture to stay in the room/bungalow.

Just 10 bungalows in a pretty garden with pool. Well equipped room with REALLY comfortable big bed and good sized balcony. Quiet location away from the main town/villages. So a scooter/motorbike is essential and can be rented from reception. Good breakfast of eggs or pancake. Some fresh fruit would be nice too, but it’s expensive on the island. Water dispenser in reception, but not cold.

Would be nice to have a small fridge in the room or chilled filter water. But there is a large fridge in reception that we were able to use. Bungalows are tastefully done in dark wood, but lighting is not very bright so can be quite dark inside.

Peaceful, nice pool areas Comfortable and unique wooden huts Reception booked all my boat trips for me at a fair price These cabins are at the top of the hill out of the hustle and bustle. Island is small so you’re close enough to everything on a scooter Tasty breakfast, love the pancakes especially Outdoor showers are nice

WiFi is a little slow 150k transfer from the harbour is expensive, but standard for the island

Definitely the best stay in lembongan out of 3 different places we stayed in! The comfiest beds I slept in so far, nice smell in our room, everything was super clean, very sweet and accommodating owners. The soap smelled like jasmine flowers. Nice thick toilet paper that didn’t disintegrate in your hands. AC worked perfectly! Very calm environment, we only heard the birds chirping. Very great value! We were a bit sceptical about the location since it’s far from all the beaches. But we used a scooter for everything anyways (even before when we stayed close to the beach), and everything was 5-10 minutes by scooter. Will definitely stay there again when I come back.

Everything was perfect!

This review is from my wife who stayed and loved her time: In years of travel this is one of the BEST accommodation experiences I've had. The staff at Maharatu are exceptional - so friendly and accommodating, you feel like family not just a guest. The bungalows are so comfortable, clean and the property is beautiful - you look out your window to a tropical garden. Also probably some of the best sleep I've had away from home - with only the sounds of nature at night. I loved this place so much that within two days of staying I extended my stay and will definitely return. The property is located right in the middle of the two sides of the island you'll visit so with a moto you see everything and staff is so helpful for organizing moto + and questions about the island.

Other people have said this but it's very true....leaving is the worst part.

the property was beautiful! the villas were clean and the mosquito net was amazing! i felt like a princess. me and my friend definitely enjoyed our stay (airconditioning worked great, swimming pool was clean, there is a shared kitchen provided and you can use the refrigerator) everything was less then 10 minutes away by scooter and you can rent a scooter at the property!

There was a gekko in our room (but it didn’t make any noise so it was fine!) and the shower was cold (but at least you waste less water that way)

This is the second review from my wife who extended her stay at Maharatu: The rest of my trip was as good as the first part! Each night was so peaceful and I loved connecting with other guests and staff at Maharatu during the day. The fully-equipped shared kitchen was also a huge bonus and I was able to make meals every day of my stay and still hop on a moto and quickly get into town for any evenings out. Up until the last moment I left the grounds, staff were attentive and helpful and having stayed at other accommodation on the island afterward I can say that this is one of the best, cleanest and most friendliest places you will find! It will definitely be my first choice when returning.

Nothing

Really liked the location, it was super easy to reach all main tourist attractions e.g. Yellow Bridge, Mushroom Beach etc. The rooms are clean and spacious, the aircon works really well and keeps the room cool even during the hot days. The restaurant doesn't serve food but there's a really nice Mexican close by that very fairly priced/ you can message nearby cafes/bars for pick up for free over Whatsapp and they'll pick you up fairly fast by van taxi. Overall, I had a really nice and peaceful stay here, would definitely recommend it to people who want to escape for peace and quiet.
