The fact that I loved it so much, I wanted to extend but the rooms were booked out :) and the hosts cared for me so much, I just felt like it was my home away from home. This property has really nothing NOT to love. One of the Best experiences so far in my solo trip in Bali.

The staff, management, villa, location, everything was so great that i really don’t have any words to explain. Direct view of mount Batur from the bed. Their hospitality, professionalism, support , kindness - everything was a 100 on a scale of 10. Best place in Kintamni.

A bit remote, but that’s part of the charm. Many flies, but tbh, there were more in town.

Komang and his family are amazing hosts. Their place is basic, a room, a bed (very fresh sheets), bathroom was private but separate. But they make sure you are looked after. His wife cooks great basic food. He can organise drivers and your trekking/hot springs experience with ease at reasonable price - considering what you’re saving on hotel, it’s a great deal!

Our stay was perfect, Komang and his whole family were amazing. They looked after us making sure we were happy helping us with anything we needed. He helped us with organising our trip doing the long route up Mount Batur with our guide Seni who worked very hard looking after the whole group and made it one of our best experiences in Bali. Hopefully will get to come back and stay again!

Loved every moment.

Our stay at Mount Batur Homestay was one of the highlights of our trip to Bali. It was a totally immersive experience in a warm family home amongst a farming community. We were welcomed so warmly and treated like part of the family. Originally chose this location to be closer to Mount Batur in order to do the sunrise hike up the mountain. The homestay is nestled in farm land in the shadow of the mountain. Komang, our host, drove us to the start point of the trail with a local guide that he had organised for us. As you leave around 3:30am, Komang offered you a head torch (which you need in the dark) and bamboo walking pole which I recommend using. There are three routes down which you can choose depending on how difficult the path is. Recommend hiking boots or a good pair of sneakers. Price varies according to the route you choose. Komang showed us the day before on a map what to expect. We are an older couple and do not ride motorcycle, so Komang, in his own time, offered to drive us in his car around the area. The viewpoints of the lake and Mountain Abung that he took us to, were amazing, as was the temple on the lake that we visited. We too were taken to the Volcano museum and watched a 20 minute documentary on the history of the volcanic activity. It was really interesting especially after climbing the mountain itself. Put everything in perspective. We appreciated the breakfasts and dinners that Sartina made us 🙏 Walking through the farm lanes and the local village really gave us a feel of the real Bali . Komang also organised us travel on to our next destination. Suksma Sartina and Komang for your warm hospitality and for going above and beyond. We loved our stay at your place and will definitely be back . 🙏

Komang and his family were the perfect hosts. He kindly offered to arrange transport from Ubud, which made things much easier. The path leading to the property is a typical village trail but easy enough to walk. I did walk past the homestay at first, but the friendly locals all knew the place and happily pointed me in the right direction. My room was clean, cool, and had a great view of Mount Batur right from the bed, which was a bonus! The dinner options were delicious and fairly priced. There are quite a few flies around, but since you are surrounded by open fields, that is to be expected. I arranged my Batur trek with Komang after I arrived, and the process was smooth. On the night we were supposed to go, it was raining, and Komang suggested postponing to the next day. I’m so glad we did because the view the next morning was perfect. It ended up being just me and the guide, who drove us to the start point by bike before we continued on foot. On the way back down, Komang picked us both up. I was back in before 9 am, so I had time for a lie in before checking out at 12. As for the area itself, the views are incredible, though there is not much else to do nearby. There is a little shop by where the path into the fields and the homestay starts, which had most things. I did manage to get a Grab to Kintamani after waiting about 45 minutes. Getting a Grab back was fairly easy, but be aware that the quicker route is not safe after dark, so you will need to take the longer way back. I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a quieter stay with easy access to Mount Batur.

I had a wonderful stay thanks to the incredibly kind and helpful owner. From a warm welcome with tea to arranging a great guide for the Mount Batur sunrise trek, he went above and beyond. His genuine care, local knowledge, and thoughtful support made my visit truly memorable.

Close to mt. batur. Amazing family. They can arrange everything for you for a good price. We will recommend arranging your mt batur hiking through the host. Also go to the hot springs. The food at the homestay is great too and very affordable!! Probably the best stay we had here in Bali!

Flies which are synonymous for the area.

The host was exceptional. He went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable. He organised our hike up Mt Batur and transported us to the hot springs several times and arranged our transfer to our next stop. The food was nice and fresh.

Great place to start your Mount Batur exploration from (and avoid the middle of the night pick up). The room was comfortable with hot shower and breakfast included. The owner organized the sunrise hike for myself and another guest at a competitive rate and allowed us plenty of time to relax at the hotsprings after. I would stay here again to explore Kintamani further :)

The smallest thing but I don't drink caffeine so I would have loved to see some sort of herbal tea on the menu :)

Truly wonderful stay! We were met with the warmest welcome. The family was so generous and couldn't do enough for us. My partner and I opted to book this spot given we wanted somewhere a little quieter/farther from town but still accessible and this spot was it! You walk down a little farm road off of the main road to get there and all you can hear at night is the sound of crickets. Very, very peaceful. There is also a wonderful little warung a few minutes walk away with the most lovely staff. Hot shower, amazing views of Mount Batur and walking distance to the climbing crag (Bali Climbing Crag). Stay here!

The road to the homestay is narrow and not in good condition. However, they put a sign at the entrance so you can't miss it. Once you see the sign, just follow the track even though you are not able to see the end and wonder if its a dead end :) just follow the track anyway Host and his family are kind to offer transport in and out of the homestay.

I had a lovely stay here. You can see Mt Batur from the homestay. It is close to the starting point of Mt Batur hike so I didn't need to wake up too early for the hike. The host and his family were very kind and helpful.They organised the sunrise hiking tour. It was a great experience and the view was amazing. The hike wasn't too hard but it'll be much easier with proper hiking boots. The host also took me to the Kopi plantation and the lake. They are definitely must-do when you are here. The room was spacious and clean and has everything I need. I saw a lot of reviews about the flies. Yeah they were everywhere but I don't think they were that annoying. They certainly did not affect my experience at all. And you gotta try the omelette the host prepares ! They were so good that I had them everyday. They plant their own vegetables so they were so fresh. They also make me coffee everyday :) I'll definitely stay here again next time and I would recommend anyone who is planning to hike Mt Batur to stay at this lovely place.

Absolutely beautiful homestay right by the volcano — everything you need and more. The highlight, however, is the incredibly kind and welcoming family who run the place. I had an amazing experience booking a volcano tour with the owner — such a genuine and warm-hearted person. This stay was unforgettable, and I can wholeheartedly recommend booking here.

The path to reach the property is not easy. Especially when it's dark and raining.

The place has a good view, the family is super nice. Drinking water station available. Hot water in the shower both on shared and private bathroom. Possibility to order local food. Our room smelled cigarettes so they immediately upgraded us because the room with private bathroom was available. Tasty breakfast with a view. We even got a snow fruit to try.

I had such a lovely stay here. The food is great. The hospitality is brilliant. I went on the Mt Batur sunrise trek and it was amazing. Can’t wait to come back.

Not a bad thing, but be mindful that the track to the house is quite tricky to navigate if you haven't driven it before.

Absolutely loved staying with this adorable family. Komang and his wife run an impeccably clean homestay, with 4 cozy rooms. We were welcomed with tea and homemade biscuits. Komang organised our Mt Batur climb. His prices are excellent (he could definitely charge more!) and he gave us 3 options for our hike. We chose the longest, because why not, and we were treated to an incredible sunrise, eggs cooked in volcano steam and the friendliest guide we could have asked for. Komang woke with us at 3:30 and provided all our transport. Truly the kindest man we have met in Bali, and we've been many times. Thank you for everything 🙏

We have been to this place to hike the Batur Vulcan. The room and the bathroom were well clean and comfortable, like the pictures show. The little garden is so beautiful and well organized. The family is so beautiful and all the meals we tried from the menu were really really good. Thanks for everything 🙏

We loved every bit of our stay with Komang and Sartchina! Upon arrival, the strangest thing happened: a wasp flew into my boyfriend's ear and Komang had to rush him to the doctor to get it out again. This event turned us into a little family quite fast and we were taken care of so well during the rest of our stay. We were fed fruit, cookies, and many cups of coffee and tea. Komang arranged a great tour for us up to Mount Batur and they fetched us at the hot springs on another day free of charge and even drove us to the market to get some drinks and food. We absolutely loved our stay with these kind and generous people. The homestay is also located in a rural area, a little away from the tourist area of Mount Batur which makes it a very immersive experience. Thank you so much Komang, Sartchina, and family. We had the BEST time and wish you all the best for the future! :)

Bed in the small room is a bit soft But this is personal preference, I prefer hard beds

The flies. Prepare thy selves. The flies will make you want to never go outdoors!!! Just bring some repellent :-) Also the location was tough if you’re looking for a taxi but there are local taxis for a bit more than a grab would be. But the pros definitely out weight the cons!!

Oman and his family were fantastic. He went out of his way to make sure we had transportation and a good time everywhere. He helped us set up our trek and hot springs and brought us to both locations. He even let us use his scooter and helped us get a ride to Lovina when we couldn’t find a taxi. The home is in a lovely onion field right at the foot of Mount Batur. It was nice to be out of the hustle and bustlin cities. The facilities are so nice, the bed was huge!! Breakfast and coffee were included each day of our stay and Oman is always keen for some karaoke! We loved our stay here and are so grateful to Oman and his fam!

The Internet was down but that's because they needed to come and fix it however, that wasn't a problem as they put a hotspot on their phone that worked great all day.

The owner was like my family, he organised everything for us, took us to the hot springs, prepared food for us everyday. I couldn't be more thankful.
