Reviews of Poling sea view

The owner, Sekar (Wangi) answered everything I asked starting from the pickup time, arranging a motor guide, interesting places, where to buy lunch, convenience stores, etc. Since I am a solo traveler, no tour package would take me. If there is, the price is terribly expensive. Sekar arranged a motorcycle driver to take me to sunrise places and the harbor with affordable price. I didn’t eat breakfast because I visited Atuh and Diamond beach. Sekar gave me brunch: rice, veggies, and pepes (spicy steamed fish and grated coconut wrapped in banana leaves). Regarding the room, it’s spacious with a double spring bed, enough for 2 people, whereas in my own house I sleep on the floor with a mattress. To sleep on a spring bed is nice. There is a shower room and a toilet. It takes time to heat the water. I could enjoy warm shower. There are two wooden chairs, a table, and a drying rack in the verandah. I could wash my clothes and dry them outside. The wifi’s connection is very good. There is a Balinese style of Gazebo outside where you can sit and enjoy the sea breeze. It’s advisable to bring a backpack instead of a suitcase because the the harbor conditions which mostly sand and small rocks, when we got off the boat, all passengers had to plunge into a water and walk a bit to the beach. I am short so a knee length of sea water for others became a thigh-length for me. Please travel light when you go to Nusa Penida.

None

Sekar was the best host we ever found in Indonesia. Very friendly, high level of English and most important she was very understanding with our request. In this facility the included breakfast is from 8 am but we booked some excursion earlier in the morning and she was so kind to bring the breakfast the night before so we manage to have it anyways. The price was more then worth it, the room is spacious and clean, far from the caos, you don’t hear motorbikes, and the view, WOW, you can enjoy your breakfast or your chill time looking at the sunrise/sunset on your chairs outside the room. A/C perfectly working. Near the center, and many restaurants. Laundry service if needed. Mattress and pillow really comfortable. If we ever go back to Nusa penida we will come back here!!!

Absolutely Nothing

Nothing really! The staff are nice and responsive but I would rather a nice comfortable room.

When we entered the room we thought maybe it wasn't yet cleaned cause things looked dirty, like the towel in front of the bathroom was super dirty already used maybe many times. Disgusting. The room is full of mold and stains. You can see that the room is always humid and the walls have big parts coming out. The bedsheets were maybe not changed cause it was really itchy. The room has spiders, one day we found a cockroach and plenty of geckos as the door doesn't close well, allowing anything to come in really. It was hard to sleep due to the humidity smell and there are thousands chickens around and dogs making a lot of noise that the building doesn't soundproof. The bathroom is the worse place, there is no ventilator, the water stays all over the place leaking into the area of the toilet and sink. No hot water at all. The walls are coming off. The place is really in bad condition without proper care. We made the mistake and booked 3 nights cause it's very cheap and had 9.1, but really the last night we were thinking to just leave and sleep somewhere else to get some sleep. It's really not a 9.1, this is not what you expect from 9 accommodation. The breakfast is okay but always a bit later than you ask so keep that in mind if you are in a rush and need to go on a tour or take a boat.

the hosts are fantastic people... bed was in good condition... the owners helped in everyway they could... breakfast was just what the doctor ordered.... the owners are wonderful people....

locks on the windows need attention... curtains didnt block out the light... roosters at all hours....!

I have been the worst guest possible, literaly. I crashed with the motobike of the owner and the day after when the motor was repaired I lost the key from it. The owner stayed calm and behaved nice to me even after all of this. She even made me a delicious breakfast every day. She is a super nice person, the village is beautiful and apartment clean and in a perfect condition.

It really does have a nice view and is extremely quiet. The hostess lives elsewhere and there were no other guests so I found it very relaxing and certainly a great bargain. Perhaps just a tad neglected.

Sekar is an amazing human. You will have an experience with a local. She picked me up in the pier and made me feel like at home. It is very private and you are surrounded by quietude. The views are beautiful. Thank Sekar.

Small thing that It was missing: soap and shampoo.

Clean, good view. In the middle of local houses. Quite from cars but cocks singing very early morning.

Beach was quite far.

I stayed 3 nights in Poling Sea View, which is enough for Nusa Penida. Sekar picked me up at the harbour with her scooter - and she helped me with a lot of other stuff, which was great. Unfortunately I ate something bad, so I got the Bali Belly, but I knew, that I could always text Sekar, if I need something. And she also made vegan Pancakes for me. So I can really recommend staying there, if you don‘t want to stay at a fancy hotel but want to have the local experience.

Sekar is a great host. She is really helpful and kind ♥️ Breakfast was really good, the orange juice is real orange! 🤗 Thank you Sekar ✨

I stayed at this lovely place for a couple of days and had a wonderful experience. The space is very clean, and the owner is incredibly supportive and kind. She cooks delicious meals, which I really appreciated, along with her warm and welcoming manner. The location is also quite convenient, being close to a petrol station. Overall, I had a pleasant stay and would highly recommend it.

Just location is abit tricky once you find you are there.

Cheap and cheerful. Airco was excellent. WiFi was top and the room is quite large.. The location is quiet, and it has a nice view. Cool in the evenings. Sekar is the hostess, and she was helpful, considerate, and I was really appreciative of all her help.

Nothing

The owner is so lovely and helpful, she goes out of her way to make sure you're comfortable or if you need anything like ferry tickets, a taxi or motorbike. She even offered me some donuts from her bakery, in addition to the free breakfast she provides. I definitely recommend staying at her place! It's has a nice little view of the village and ocean, little shalas where you can eat or meditate.

The location is a little tricky to find but once you do it's easy to get to.

The breakfast was very good 👍🏼 and the host was very helpful and friendly.

Nice quiet area, comfortable bed, nice host, nice garden, nice view
