    Maybe remote for some but it was exactly what we wanted.

    Spectacular scenery in a unique hideaway away from the hustle & bustle of Ubud.

    Even though there was a funicular, the waits could be long and there were still many more stairs that needs to be climbed, i.e. to the river or the lobby.

    It was hidden from the bustle of Ubud. Great views! Exceptional food. Fantastic massage!

    The experience from start to finish was spectacular. Heart filled with love the second we arrived. Welcomed at outdoor reception area with Balinese welcome drinks. Our room was upgraded without our knowledge to the most breathtaking suite. The staff take such pride in their hospitality, my daughter and I felt the love and gratitude throughout our entire stay. The gardens and pool area were draped in bright seasonal tropical flowers. Everyone took such pride in the resort. Thank you to you all for making the first part of our trip memorable. 🤍🙏🏽

    Hands down one of the most magic locations in SE Asia. The hotel is excellent, the staff are amazing and the sound of the jungle at dusk and the waterfall at the bottom of the property were unforgettable. I did not want to leave, and will definitely return. Thank you Nandini Jungle for a truly memorable experience. I can't wait to come back.

    This is a luxurious and peaceful stay in the heart of nature , with its own private river and waterfall! Waking up every morning watching (and listening) to the dawn and feeling completely immersed in the nature of Bali yet with every modern comfort is an amazing experience. The staff were wonderful, and the facilities and food excellent The pricing is more of European standard but staying here you completely understand why and definitely worth it

    That the staff had 2 menus... one was a good price and one dearer than Aussie prices we didnt know and staff gave us the expensive one?? Food was lovely but a choice would have been better. Over all because you are in an isolated spot they charged more than l thought appropriate.

    Beautiful spot... lots of steps because of the hillside but thats what we went there for.

    There were a lot of steps, so if you’re older or have trouble walking this is not for you. The pool doesn’t get sun most of the afternoon which is annoying. It’s out of the way which is great to avoid tourists but nothing nearby so stuck with their restaurant which is obviously higher end price wise.

    Food and staff were amazing! Views of jungle are stunning!

    The meals in the restaurant were extremely small and very pricey (think Singapore restaurant prices; Nasi Goreng is about $SG14 for example), which would be the equivalent of fine dining in SG if you compare to Indonesian restaurant prices in town. The location is quite remote, so there is also almost no chance to get something from outside as it takes around 35-40 minutes to reach Ubud by car. Especially annoying around dinner when having to go to bed with an half empty stomach.

    The rooms were very clean and the view is simply magical! The villas have their own charm between coziness and classiness. I would recommend the numbers in the 60s and 70s, as they provide the best view. The staff go above and beyond to make your stay as pleasant as possible, greeting you with a refreshing welcome drink and a big smile when you arrive at the reception and always provide help whenever you need it.
