This was my second stay at Sintya and I was welcomed back by Made and the family. It's a comfortable, clean homestay in a quiet area of Ubud. The location is excellent for Yoga Barn (around 2 minutes walk) and is close to restaurants, cafes, the supermarket and walking distance to the main area around the palace. Having a fridge in the room and a kitchen to self cater is a real bonus. Overall a very comfortable stay and I wouldn't hesitate to come back.

A few ants but nothing major. Upstairs rooms are better … downstairs rooms are a bit dark.

Excellent Homestay, lovely family. Clean simple rooms. Great location near yoga barn. Nice to have own kitchen,

The room looked simple, but it was really clean. The bed was really comfortable and the aircon was working well. Each room has a private kitchen next door, too. The place is right next to yogabarn, so it's super convenient if that's what you're looking for.

The room smelled a little damp.

It's a great location, just opposite the yoga barn.

It has all the basics that you need.

No water coming out the hot tap for a shower later in the evening though was working in the morning. Towel synthetic and didn’t dry No top sheet on the bed, only a synthetic plush blanket.

Good value for money for a basic room. The room is in a block within a traditional Balinese family compound and has some beautiful features. There is a basic kitchen next to the room serving several rooms. Large fridge in the room It is located directly opposite the Yoga Barn if you are planning to spend a lot of time there. Hosts very polite Air con worked well Felt very safe

People are super nice. The room is simple but has just what I need. And it is a stone throw away from Yoga Barn.

Screens on windows would be nice to not need air conditioning.

Excellent location behind yoga barn and kitchenette available to make your own food. Quiet rooms.

Location right behind yoga barn. Refrigerator and small kitchen facility.

The shower water was mostly only slightly warm, this was from only using the hot tap and keeping the cold tap completely off. A couple of occasions it was hot and a few times it was just cold. The only real downside was waking up in the middle of the night from a rooster next door. However this is not a reflection of the homestay itself.

Basic room, basic facilities, friendly family, cheap price! I stayed for 3 weeks to be in close proximity to The Yoga Barn. It is only 3 houses down and across the road, super convenient. As there are two entrance points to The Yoga Barn, you can also walk through there to get to the other side where you’ll find restaurants, cafes, markets and monkey forest. In the room there was a cabinet with a lock and key, where you can store valuables. Plenty can fit in this. There is no soap included, so bring some with you as your future self will thank you when you’re able to freshen up after a long day of travelling!

The terrace, the location and the people were really nice! I had a good sleep!

Bed was a bit firm for my liking and could do with a cushiony mattress topper.

Right next to Yoga Barn, and close to Ubud attractions. Very quiet, safe, clean, neat little basic kitchen, affordable and pleasant family-owned homestay. Quality air con.

I prefer a fan to Aircon personally. Would have also been good to have some soap in the room as I had to go and buy my own. Small issue though and one I'm sure they would have done something about if I mentioned it.

Beautiful homely feel. So welcoming and it was lovely being in balinese culture. They even had a birthday party one night and invited us to be a part of it. Such great value for money

great location, all the great spots are easy to reach from here. helpful and friendly host!! wanted to stay three nights, endet up staying three weeks haha the small kitchen was a nice add on. I can recommend room number one and two if people enjoy the morning sun, I really appreciated that

Stayed in January 2023

The bathroom was a bit too basic, no toilet paper, no soap. The bed was a piece of foam.

Close to the yoga barn. Far from the road noise.

I don’t have anything negative to say. The place is absolutely worth it for many different reasons. If anything I would love to see them have always consistent work and clients so they can also at the right time be able to comfortably renovate the structures and even expand more.

This family is one of the kindest I ever met, they have been so patient with me, with my settling into a new country for the first time and adapting to a new city. They have been helpful through the whole process, and they went over and beyond to help. Even when I got sick with food poison, they helped me call the doctor and had them come right away to my unit and follow up during the whole process with genuine care. Made, his sister and the whole family are some people that you will be blessed to meet in your path. And when you are traveling alone in a new country feeling safe and protected is the most important thing you could wish for. On top of it the property is literally cross street from the yoga barn and so for me was so convenient to just walk there few mins before class and instead of paying for an expensive in camp accommodation you can literally stay here for a fraction of the price and feel like you are still in a retreat experience.

It didn’t match the pictures. It was very dark when we arrived. The rooms were not nice- there was an old blanket on the bed. The showers were dirty. The host double booked the room. In order to get to the rooms we had to go down two flights of very steep stone stairs and I had a sprained knee. It was very unpleasant and we were not able to stay there.

Close to yoga barn and downtown Ubud.

The place is very tranquil and right next to the yoga barn and nice restaurants. The room was also very spacious and nice. The hosts very kind. Would stay again!

great location, not too far but at a sufficient distance from the center so it is quiet, calm and safe, the Yoga Barn for a small jump! The owner is a nice family, I felt good there. Thanks Made!
