This is a lovely peaceful hotel surrounded by rice fields and feels very rural even though so close to Ubud. The grounds and pool are lovely, and the hotel is very quiet. The breakfast is simple and nice - Indonesian or American style. Walking distance are some nice little cafes and restaurants. The staff are really lovely, sweet and kind.

The bathroom was acceptable and clean, the hand held shower a little awkward. It's quite a long way to Ubud, but a pleasant 30 minute walk along a path/motorbike lane way by the monkey forest to central Ubud. Overall very nice and really good value for money.

I was being harassed by some taxi driver during the drive and didnt feel comfortable with him giving me a ride that would take 2 hours to another location outside Ubud so I went to this resort which I had booking in the next 2 days, not on that day and the owner happened to be at the reception so I told them that I didnt feel safe and wanted to pretend to check in so that taxi driver would leave me alone and they took me in like I’m their family and understand my situation and stay with me till the driver really gone. I asked them if I could rent a motorbike somewhere and they lent their own for me with a very cheap price! I took the motorbike to somewhere outside Ubud and it got some problem with the starter in the middle of nowhere road so I messaged them and they replied right away and planned to come all the way to my current location which was like 2 hours from theirs to help me but I figured out so they didnt have to come. Few days later I checked in, the room and resort location were perfect! (The room was a bit dark but okay). They took some time to help me figure out the transportation to my next destination, which had very few info on the internet but they helped me all the way till send me off at the right bus stop. I couldnt be more grateful for their help and warm welcome like family. The receptionist and owners can speak English well too.

the owners of the hotel were extremely helpful. The went extra mile to accommodate all our wishes. You are very well looked after. The room was beautiful, cleaned ever day, the meals were made of fresh product and freshly cooked. I attended a cooking class and this was an unforgettable experience. The owners arranged a massage session for us and provided home made coconut oil. I strongly recommend this family run wonderful place. I will be back again!!!

Amazing hospitality and caring to all our needs. Fantastic location, caring staff. Fresh food.

The hotel location was ideal if you’d prefer to be just a bit removed from downtown Ubud. The walk into Ubud takes only about 10 to 15 minutes, but it’s a dark path shared by scooters and motorcycles. It’s best to return after dark in a taxi. There are a good handful of outstanding restaurants nearby and the hotel is almost immediately adjacent to the monkey forest. While the breakfast didn’t change day to day, I looked forward to the rich coffee, fruit plate, omelette made to order and fruit pancakes. The service is consistently friendly and warm.

Perhaps one additional breakfast choice would be good, but that’s being picky.

We absolutely loved our stay at Saren Indah. Right from the start all the staff were so friendly and accommodating. Our room was very clean and comfortable with plenty of storage. We chose a balcony room which overlooked the jungle and ponds where we spotted monkeys at a few times! The pool area is gorgeous with plenty of towels and comfortable loungers. Breakfast was amazing, the best we had in Bali, great selection. The location was perfect for us as we didn’t really want to stay right in the middle of town. The main part of Ubud is just a short grab ride away. It’s right next to the monkey forest and there are plenty of restaurants just a short walk away. Couldn’t recommend this place enough!

We loved everything about this hotel, the setting in rice fields is so unique and beautiful, with monkeys running around every corner from the sanctuary next door. The staff could not do more and were the kindest people. We also did the cooking class they offered which ended up being a truly magical experience, with the whole saren Indah family, taken to the early morning markets before cooking a 7 course delicious authentic meal with fresh ingredients. Everything we needed they provided and the hotel is ideally located for exploring the whole of Bali. The walk to Ubud centre/markets is a bit scary due to the people on motorbikes but is quick and easy.

Nothing. Only complaint would be the walls are quite thin and we had some annoying neighbours but apart from that it’s perfect.

This is a great choice for a stay in Ubud. It’s a bit out of the center (10 mins walking) so it’s very peaceful at night (except for the bugs and birds from the rice terraces!). The room is spacious and very clean and the bed is so comfy. The breakfast is very filling with great options and all cooked fresh. Lots of staff available and willing to help. Loved having the pool.

Only negative is that we booked a half day tour through the hotel and we had a negative experience with the driver, so wouldn’t recommend this service through the hotel, but not necessarily the hotels fault.

The place was nice and relaxing beside the rice fields and a lot of greenery . Perfect place to get away from the city but still only a few minutes walking from pubs and the rest of the busy city center. The breakfast was delicious! I already miss those banana pancakes! All the stuff if helpful, super friendly and I just love every detail, like a cinnamon ice tea to arrive or a box with breakfast if you have to leave before time.

It has nothing to do with the hotel itself, but as the monkey forest is closed you need to take an side small street that is just full of scooter, to go to the centre of ubud ( they have taken the street over!!)

This hotel is exceptional. If in doubt, PLEASE do yourself a favour and book here! We have stayed at 5 hotels now and this one was the best so far. It is a serene place, peaceful and beautiful, but in a great location of Ubud - right next to the Monkey Sanctuary and also close to Ubud art market and the palace. Very nice restaurants close by, and in a clean and beautiful area. And the beds were VERY comfy! Rooms were spacious and well-equipped. Breakfast and service was good. But best of all, the family owning the hotel - the wife & husband and daughter. They were extremely kind and helpful, and very professional. They bought tickets for us, for the Fire dance show nearby, and took us there on scooters and picked us up again. We also did a cooking class with the hotel owners, which was a great and memorable experience. Very well prepared and very delicious food at the end!! I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Ubud.

This was a little oasis. The rooms were spacious and clean and very comfortable with helpful touches like a 10L drinking water bottle in room so we weren’t constantly out buying fresh water. Breakfast is a simple menu but beautifully done and plenty of food. Excellent location. Tranquil and quiet yet a 3 min walk to shops and some great cafes/ restaurants, 15 min walk to monkey Forrest and busy areas. Despite the 3 star rating the staff went out of their way to provide everything, better than our usual 4 or 5 star hotels. Pool was beautiful and clean and actually a refreshing temp (not too warm like some resorts). We will be back.
