Gorgeous accommodation, very clean and spacious, with the most amazing views from the room & a lovely breakfast each morning! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We booked a cooking class, rice paddy trek, and scooter rental through the accommodation. All were very reasonably priced, and everyone was always happy to help! Location was good too, quiet and peaceful but very close to lots of tasty warungs, spas, a few shops also. Perfect place to relax and reset for a few days, we would love to stay here again! :)

Family trip. This is the most amazing place in Sideman with ninterrupted views of Mount Agung and rice fields, breathtaking, out of this world, calm and peaceful. This is a small family run place, Gede and his family run this place and were amazing and were super helpful! Well located for shops and restaurants, rooms were spacious and the breakfast was amazing.

Only 1 chair in room, nothing to put suitcases on, no safety box. No decorations in the room. ,

Beautiful view from the bungalow, sunrise over rice fields, and Mt Agung. Walking distance to rice terraces, local market, Warungs. So peaceful. Nice thick towels and comfortable mattress. Staff are so kind and helpful.

We loved everything

We have been to Sidemen 3 times and this is by far our favorite place. We will without a doubt be staying here when we come back! Surrounded by beautiful flowers and birds chirping. Super comfy room. We had the best nights sleep we have had in Bali.

I had a wonderful stay at The Babakan Accommodations! Location is perfect. Luckily the weather was great and got amazing views of Mt Agung. Gede and his Family do a fantastic job running the place. They were super helpful and responsive. They serve delicious breakfast on the room terrace, and they can arrange transport. Room was spacious, bed comfortable, all facilities great. Loads of local restaurants in short walking distance. Sideman is wonderfully peaceful, a very chilled pace. It was great to spend time relaxing in the beautiful countryside. Would love to return and would stay here again.

Clean, beautiful terrace, and great views. Saw a lot of birds in the morning.

The only small issue was that the room isn’t fully sealed - there are openings. So bugs can easily get in. Didn’t see many mosquitoes though so not a huge issue

Gorgeous view over the rice fields - and great people watching spot. View of Mount agung if you get lucky with the weather. Good breakfast served on the balcony with said view. Accommodation able to organise activities and card payment is available. Great restaurants just a 1 minute walk round the corner. Room was spotlessly clean, hot powerful shower, 2 pillows each, comfy bed. Host was very friendly.

Beautiful view and amazing room! The owner and all staff were so so friendly and helpful. They gave us good recommendations and organized all transportation for us. Sideman is a quiet town for sure but was amazing to get away from the business of Ubud. Great for a couple day trip.

We really loved the ricefield walk that is offered by the accomodation. It's with a very friendly young local guide. He explained a lot and we saw beautiful ricefield. Also the breakfast options at Babakan were great and the view is stunning.

Babakan is spectacular! Everything from the view, the kindness of the hosts, to the exceptional level of cleanliness at the villa. This was my favorite place that I stayed during my three weeks traveling through Bali. The hosts work tirelessly from before sunrise to well after sundown to make the stay at this villa extraordinary. The daily cleaning of the villa and patio area was immaculate. The shower had the perfect hot water, the bedding was crisp and clean white linens, and the view was extraordinary!

The host was very accessible and the breakfast on the verandah was spectacular.

Amazing views straight from your room, local places to eat, shops, silver workshops and massage all within a couple of minutes walk. The rooms were spotless and breakfast is served right on your terrace. We contacted the hotel before arriving and they were so helpful, they picked us up from Ubud, arranged our silver making workshop, our ferry over to Gili Air and took us to the pier 10 out of 10 is not enough for the service we received. Would 100% recommend

One suggestion would be to add some plants or a bamboo fence on the terrace to create more privacy between the rooms.

The view from the room is absolutely insane. The rooms are big and bright. Bed super comfy. And people there are helpful and super nice !

Nothing, it’s heaven on earth.

This place is paradise. I spent 7 nights here and didn't want to leave. Waking up in one of the most comfortable beds l've ever slept in, to the view of Mt Agung looming over the rice fields and tropical scenery, was incredible. Then having a delicious breakfast delivered to my porch was heaven. All breakfast choices were amazing but the banana pancakes were out of this world. Shout out to master cook Nengah. These rooms, and grounds, are kept meticulously clean, with bed change every day if you want! Even my A/C was serviced while I was there. I organised a 5 course Balinese cooking course through the accommodation, at Warung Deva, with Aunty Wayan, which was a great experience. I’m looking forward to trying out my new skills when I get home. l also organised a rice fields trek through them, which was also an amazing experience. My brilliant guide, Kadak, first took me to the local morning markets where the locals buy their produce for the day. I got to try some of the local fruits and treats, and bought some Balinese cooking knives which are the best and somehow stay sharp forever! We walked through back streets, past schools and temples, to the stunning fields. Along the way we were met with a local man who has a stall with fresh coconut and peanuts for the trekkers. You can sit and sip your coconut milk whilst listening to him play musical instruments- heaven! Kadak has very good English skills, which everyone does, so we had great communication, with him giving constant information about local culture. Gede, the wonderful host of this family run accommodation, couldn't have been more helpful or accommodating, available at all hours if needed. His constant smile was a highlight of my day. Gede organised a driver for the day for me, Komang, who was also very helpful throughout the day.

Really clean and perfect location

AC gets turned off by cleaning staff. But not a big problem. There is holes above the windows without nets so mosquitoes can get in. Make sure to wear repellent then there is no problem.

Location and view was perfect, also the breakfast was really good. Staff was super friendly. The room was clean!

Great location and absolute great value for money. Views into the rice field and the volcano right from your bed.

Breakfast on day one, since we requested for it to be on move, was unsatisfactory. Only a pancake and a single banana. That was disappointing. The restaurant Gede dropped us to after our day outing to Pura Besakhi (Nivriti) was very sub par (expensive, food and coffee was bad). It was raining heavily, so we had no choice but to stay on. This doesn't reflect badly on the place, but it was not a pleasant situation to be in at the suggestion of the host.

What a view!!!!! Extremely neat and tidy place, such attention to growing pretty flowers, keeping the place tip top and tidy, well lit as well. Beds very comfortable, bathroom spacious and clean, very good water pressure. Gede, our host, was quite friendly and informative.

the room was very comfortable with a great view of the mountain and the care and food was terrific. nothing was too much trouble for this family to make our stay memorable!!

Outside the place at night it was pretty dark, so I would highly suggest bringing some kind of torchlight to illuminate your way if you decided to go out at night.

The location of the accommodations was pretty good overall, we had access to everything around us, there were even some silver and various other workshops that you can participate in. The personnel were warm and welcoming and they helped us with a lot of things including transportation to our next destination. The view was also amazing again everywhere you looked and the food (breakfast) was also good. Overall it was a great place to stay in and a recommendation for sure!

Amazing family business. The father keeps the place spotless and the son is an amazing guide. Friendly atmosphere and excellent location to explore the area. I highly recommend renting a bike and enjoying the surroundings
