Perfect stay at a beautiful house in a small village. Made is a great host, speaks fluently English and can tell you all about Bali and surroundings. He lives with the family in the house behind Mertha house. The family cleans, makes breakfast and lunch or diner if you want. They are very friendly.

the master bedroom had a slight smell of damp or mustiness. I think its because there is no external window in that room. But honestly it didnt bother me as I was outside unless I was sleeping.

I thought that I had booked a room in the Villa. The penny only dropped that the whole place was mine when I asked when the other guests were arriving and was met with a puzzled look. Its crazy as one night for a whole two bed villa with a pool and garden was less than a night at Travelodge at home. I was here to climb Mount Batur so didnt have a car to get around. There is a small walk to the main road and it looks like there are shops and a takeaway chicken but I was determined to make the most of the private garden and pool so didnt leave the Villa other than to climb the Mountain. The host was very sweet and helpful. There was a welcome drink on arrival and she explained there is a menu which you can order via whatsapp and agree the time for the food to arrive. I ordered food and drink each day. Price isnt expensive and the food was very tasty. In the evening you text what you want for breakfast the next day and the time and voila, it arrives. Because its a private villa you have total privacy once you shut the garden gates. No one disturbs you at all. The local area is quiet so you dont hear much noise. I would highly recommend staying here if you are wanting to climb the mountain but also want to relax afterwards.

The caretakers Pak Made and Ibu Komang were very nice as they treated us as family. They were very helpful with all our request and even gave us souvenirs. We highly recommend this place. And willing to come back again. Best Nyepi stay so far.

We had breakfast every morning prepared and cooked beautifully and to our liking. Made and Komang made us feel especially welcome each day, engaging with us regularly and could not do enough for us. We felt like they became almost family to us and met their extended family who were all so gracious. A beautiful relaxing location with all amenities you could ask for. The Merta House is exceptionally beautiful and comfortable with an outdoor kitchen and eatery. Jasan Village consists of beautiful people who are all very kind. We loved the nightlife here in the way of frogs and lizards which was especially calming. I can't recommend this Village and villa enough for a relaxing experience.

A last minute 1 night booking couldnt be better than this. The villa is very comfortable, the staff is super friendly, the manager gave us very useful tips about our mountain trip, and they prepared a breakfast package for our sunrise trip. The price and location is also very good.

I love how big the property. It could actually fit 2 families. It is away from noise. The pool is big enough. The rooms are so huge too. We stayed there until new year, the family really give their best to accommodate our needs. FAMILY, the wife and husband are so generous and kind.

Felt like a king staying here! The place is exceptionally good and the family that run it are too. From the moment I arrived I was overwhelmed with how wonderful it is. I was lucky enough to get a massage in my stay here that Madi arranged, the massage was 1st class, and I am a massage practitioner (15yrs) with high discernment. I am so grateful for this stay, in the most beautiful house, they really made it my home. Thank you to Madi and his family for their hard work, excellence, and big kindness. My only regret is that I had a short stay.

I looked for something to fault and came up empty. That is usually not the case. Best experience.

On arrival met by lovely Made in traditional dress. Introduction to Villa very thorough and welcoming. Food cooked by Komang (Mades wife) is wonderful especially my favourite dish in bali Satay Lillet. The ambience is just beautiful. Made arranged wonderful trips for us. Wayan drove us and took care of us on adventures to our destinations over three days with wonderful stops on the way. The most amazing was the spiritual water ceremony. Wayans knowledge and thoughtfulness was and is highly regarded. Highly recommend.

Beautiful balinese house with a beautiful view. Lovely hosts. It's great to get a feel for the "real" bali and yet enjoy luxury.

There was no request to big or to small, which was always met promptly with a smile & a friendly face. Even assistance with my elderly mobility challenged mother was available - really nothing to complain about!

The breakfast was lovely, all handmade and served alfresco in the garden. The Villa is very spacious with a large pool and absolutely stunning gardens - remember to check out the night jasmine in the evenings by the property entrance. Beds are comfortable, staff are attentive without being intrusive. Komang does a wonderful job with Housekeeping & Cooking whilst Mede is the Host with the Most, a fabulous driver, full of suggestions and very flexible. We were very happy to be included in a village ceremony and enjoyed being in a family community, away from the more touristy areas of central Ubud. Birds, dragon flies, greenery, space, slightly cooler than central Ubud & the smell of the jungle combined with fast wifi, satellite TV & beautiful architecture & design. Impossible not to relax with such a wonderful family in a beautiful Villa. Top Secret - ask Mede about the fabulous newly finished Jungle House in the Trees!

Everything was perfect! We had the most fantastic and relaxing experience. If we had a bit more energy (as this was our last stop in Bali) we would have loved to organise some of their adventure tours such as cycling through the forest and others. Would definitely put that on our next trip!

We organised for the host to pick us up from our previous accommodation and the transportation fee was the most reasonable out of all the transportation arrangements we have encountered in Bali. Turned out that the host also runs the Ubud guide and driver service. We got to experience some amazing unique local and cultural experiences during our visits, including visiting a local nearby market, participating in a Balinese temple ceremony, trying out local snacks and food, and riding through the magnificent local rice fields. Jasan village is a friendly and peaceful village beside Sebatu and is about 15-20 minutes from Tegalallang by scooter. The breakfast included was super delicious and the host always checked on us to make sure that we were taken care of. It was easy to just spend a day in this gorgeous, traditional villa chilling as the space is so serene and zen.

What a beautiful villa. And the design of the interior of this villa is very Balinese inspireret and the host is so sweet and accommodating. Mr Made is an abundance of local knowledge and he can arrange anything you might need. This stay was the absolute best of the places we have been staying for our month long vacation in Bali. Thank you so much Mr Made and Komang❤️

Location is a little out of the way. Need a scooter or transport to easily get around.

beautiful private villa, with great hosts.

Stayed in December 2024

We loved that it was in a family compound and that we could easily interact with the family. It had a pool and tv for our kids. It was large and had two bedrooms with ensuite. The host, Made, was very contactable on What’s App and very helpful.
