Ubud overall is busy and noisy. The food options, although great, were not of the best quality compared to other places I visited.

The environment is well-kept and looks great. It is a bit away from Ubud, therefore less noisy. They offer a lot of free activities e.g. yoga classes, which were great. The SPA was incredible. All in all, it is one of the best properties around Ubud.

Absolutely nothing.

In the current environment of travel where more is less this is the exception. With only 6 villas in the resort you felt like it was your own personal retreat. We had a very unusual request and Wyan couldn’t have been more helpful and it was sorted in 24 hours. Wyan and his team were excellent.

The view is breathtaking in this room. I was in awe when I walked in. It’s very relaxing to sit on the balcony and take it all in. In the bathroom you have the same view when laying in bath or sitting on the toilet. It’s also possible to get a massage at the hotel. So very positive stay!

The staff were so helpful from the moment we arrived. Going to Sidemen was a last minute decision as we wanted to go to the Gates of Heaven. We arrived without a plan and due to being outside of the main tourist areas, transport is harder. The staff were fantastic in helping us get a driver to take us to the attraction and back for a good price. The room is lovely and a fantastic size, plus the attention to detail was fabulous. We had a great view from our room and were located right by the pool so if we had stayed longer, we would have taken more advantage of! Overall it was a fabulous stay and the staff made it even more special!

The room had a BEAUTIFUL view to rice fields. It was impecable, comfortable and the staff was super friendly. We did the silver workshop and the easy trek. We recommend both, even though it was rainy most of out time there, the views were great and the guide was nice. The breakfast and restaurant were delicious. We did not feel the need of eating somewhere else.

The room was much smaller than we had imagined from photos online. Shower was also not great, the shower head was so high up and you had to stand against the wall to be under the water. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay!

Friendly staff, great facilities (spa and restaurant). Recommend!

We loved everything about this stay. Super service and staff, the food is so delicious with many vegan options. The food was so good, we didn't eat anywhere else. We had a beautiful view on the rice terraces. We loved Sidemen and were sad to leave! Also, the staff was super with our baby and very child friendly. Terima Kasih!

The bathroom needs updating, our bath had big cracks that were patched up and some old stains. The tiles on the walls had big cracks that were poorly patched up. The pool area is also a little tired looking. Massage was ok but not great. Staff also seemed not as happy as other places we stayed. We also had an incident where I mistakenly paid twice and was told I’d be given my cash refund when I arrive however when I arrived and asked for the cash (which I was planning on using in town as there are limited ATMS around) I was told they didn’t have the cash available on hand and maybe I could use it to spend on extra services they offered in the hotel. After pushing back they managed to get cash out by the evening which I appreciated, but strange and not very professional.

Beautiful view from the bedroom, right amongst one of the smaller rice fields. Stunning sunrises. Nice big room. Awesome yoga class offered just a short walk down the road.

Breakfast option ordering procedure can be improved.

Cepik Villa is a really nice option with all the space and comfort one can ask for in Sidemen. Not the most upscale option but works really well for my wife and I, will recommend.

Great people, lovely location, nice food. They offer transport to many places and great activities. I loved the cooking class nearby. A master chef in Balinese cuisine is born.

No TV. For a solo traveler that matters. Surly receptionist on check out. Very odd for Bali. Not one smile.

Fantastic location. Beautiful suite.

Superb hotel, great setting in lush countryside. Wonderful attentive staff. Very nice breakfast, lots of options there was a seperate vegan and vegetarianmenu, we ate at the restaurant at lunch time and evening meal as the food was so good. Sidemen is a lovely place to walk around, also longer walks through the local rice fields offer nice views and fresh air. The hotel also offers traditional massages if you fancy some pampering and private yoga sessions too.

One could see that the room facilities are running a bit old but nonetheless, the staff made sure we had everything we needed. Overall we had a really pleasant stay in Sideman.

The room size was very large, the bed was comfortable, the aircon was very silent and cooling really well. The staff was very friendly.

Not much to say, showers could have been a little more modern and powerful, but otherwise quite comfortable.

Loved how the staff greeted me with a free hibiscus drink which was absolutely delicious and I sat out enjoying the mountain view as I signed in. When I ordered the same drink in the morning they offered it to me 'on the house' which was lovely. Beautiful little hidden spot behind Sidemen.

Beautiful, light and spacious luxurious room (we had the top level sunrise suite). Staff are really lovely and helpful and the food is excellent. Very generous breakfast with lots of choices, included with room. Would definitely stay here again ❤️

Cepik Villa exceeded my expectations. Food is amazing, the service was second to none. The room was superb with an amazing bed and view!

The swimming pool was not clean. It was full of bugs, some grass, and some unrecognizable substances. Dove in one, saw all of that and did not want to do it again. The breakfast was so so.

The view from the room, balcony, the bathroom and even toilet with the view - loved it! Super comfortable bed.

Hotel is not modern and furniture is vintage, but it feels like the local vibes still, would not suit for those who needs modern vibes. Some insects and mosquitoes is the case but ors located in front of rice fields and thats normal. Bed has separate thing to close from them.

Very nice location, hotel is extremely authentic and has incredible panorama view from the restaurant. Staff is kind, always welcoming and helpful. Hotel has a pool and real Balinese nature vibes. Located in a nice street with many restaurants. Staff was even helping to plan our local visits. Have separate area inside for Yoga and meditations on the ground with the view on the sunrise. Perfect place to recharge yourself. Very fast delivery of the scooter.

This was a wonderful location for a relaxing holiday looking out over the rice paddies. Going to sleep to the sounds of frogs and geckos, and waking up to the sound of cicadas. The staff were great and the breakfasts included had a good variety. It was great value for money, and they have a lovely pool where you can relax. It is a short walk to shops etc, but next time we will likely hire a motorbike to allow us to get around more.

My stay was fantastic! The room was beautiful, very spacious, with a huge window offering the most amazing view! Every morning, I would wake up and swim in the pool while enjoying the lush greenery all around. The room was incredibly well-equipped with water, a fridge, a kettle for tea or coffee, shampoo, body lotion, and more. The staff was discreet, always smiling, and eager to help. There were plenty of breakfast options, and everything was delicious. I will definitely stay at the same hotel again the next time I visit Sidemen.

We booked a very nice one-day tour, would recommend, but it was a little unclear if the price included the entrance tickets or only the driver. We still had to pay entrance fees, which was fine, but it would have been nice if that had been communicated more clearly.

Beautiful location, good room & beds, super friendly staff, nice food. Come here, you will not regret it
