This is a hidden gem within an authentic Balinese family compound. There are several family members living there and they have built additional rooms/bungalows for renting. My unit was a beautiful new suite with big bathroom, great shower. The sliding glass doors went to a small private patio area. There are many steps up to the restaurant and the family homes and their private temple. A few steps down the steep property takes you to a shopping street (no cars). Do the self guided rice terrace walk !!! Just go down all the steps and straight ahead. It’s a pleasant flat walk thru the field and exits on the Main Street. Only 10 minute walk to the Palace and 30 min walk to Monkey Forest.

Super Bellissimo . very quiet, close to everything on foot, two entrances, one at the back immediately in the old market and close to a top spa. super good breakfast, the owners and their family are number one in Ubud, they give you advice on everything, super kind. They rent you scooters at a super price and wash your clothes in one day at a great price. I'm really happy BELLISSIMO

Good location, quiet, friendly staff, squeaky clean.

The room was very hot and the Aircon didn't seem to be working well. The sockets in the room were loose out of the wall. They were working but it seems a bit of a risk using them.

Clean, spacious, lovely gardens, friendly staff, 10min walk to main street/art market

Could do with a few minor additions to make stay more comfortable such as providing soap or handwash, hand towels to dry hands, bath mats so floor isn't wet after showers. Also please be aware, there was a building close by that played VERY loud music (think bashing pots and pans together over a PA systym) until 11pm on the Tuesday night we were there. After 15hrs travelling we just wanted to sleep quite early but even with earplugs, could not drown out the music and were not able to sleep until it stopped.

I loved this Homestay. It was like a hidden oasis in the midst of the chaos of Ubud. I stayed 2 weeks and still didn't want to leave. The staff are so friendly and couldn't do enough. I had the original Bungalow and whilst that wouldn't be for everyone. I loved it. And the banana pancakes for breakfast were so good! I only had lunch oh the last day, but it was simple and tasty. If I make it back to Ubud. I'll definitely stay again. I miss it already.

Nothing to really dislike. Except maybe the rooster wake up call. 😃

Nice location, really quite and a lot of trees feels like already in the jungle. Through Kajeng street only 5-10 minutes walk to the city centre in a beautiful small road with stores and restaurants. In the other direction it is only 5 minutes for a walk to beautiful rice fields. Rooms are like the pictures on booking. We extended the stay and they immediately prepared another free room for us. It is a family run homestay who take good care, cleaning the room everyday and making a nice breakfast. Overall we enjoyed the calm stay and can say that it is a very good price value ratio at Pondok Bambu Homestay.

I LOVED this homestay. So much I went back for my last night in Bali. The family and staff are so nice. The homestay is a little oasis, just a short walk from the centre of Ubud. Best Banana Pancakes in Bali. Lovely pool, which is rarely busy. I had a traditional Balinese Bungalow for my first stay, which was cute and authentic. Then their suite for this last stay. And wow. A 5-star worthy suite in a traditional homestay. The best of both worlds. I will most definitely stay here when I go back to Bali.

Nothing to really dislike. Except maybe the Rooster wake up call!!!

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Right after the booking confirmation we contacted the homestay to book a driver to pick us up at the airport. The driver (Made) was very nice and explained lots of interesting things about Bali and the culture on the way to Ubud. The staff at the reception helped us book tickets for activities and made very good breakfast. The apartment was spacious and the (huge) bed very comfortable. The homestay is located in the backyard of the owners’ own home so it felt very cosy and authentic.

Nothing :)

I love this Balinese family. They are helpful and kind. They work hard to please. They're very organized with their bookings. The location is wonderful.

When I go to Ubud, this is where I stay. This is my fourth stay at Pandok Bambu in six months. I'm almost afraid to give these wonderful people a great review. Because the next time I make a reservation they may be too full.

We loved the beautiful garden with the cute little pool. The room was spacious but rather minimalistic. Breakfast was great (most delicious pancakes in Bali!) and staff very friendly. Our toddler was crazy about the fish, turtles and chicken in the garden- such a great place for children! Location was amazing too, beautiful rice fields nearby and most tourist attractions, restaurants and a supermarket in walking distance.

There could've been more sunbeds. And roosters can be very loud very early. :)
