Advertised as a B & B but you have to pay for a very minimal breakfast. We declined as there were cockroaches in the kitchen and the fridge/freezer needs a good defrosting and clean. Facilities are available ie kitchen, oven, laundry but you are encouraged not to use them. Could be a great place, just needs to decide what it... More

This property needs some attention. There are many charming aspects to the home and the location is terrific but many things left a lot to be desired. First of all, this is really not a bed and breakfast. You can buy some cereal and milk for breakfast or you can buy something small and leave it in the very old... More

Comfortable and homely, Bamboo Cottage is a lovely tucked away spot to enjoy a quiet,relaxing holiday. The lush, shady garden is a perfect place to shelter from the sun and read a good book,or talk with fellow travellers over a cup of complementary tea or coffee. Sadly,the homely vibe starts to break down a little on the hospitality front. Although... More

Great Ozzy hospitality!! Took us in at 11pm after we realized our travel agent mixed up our reservation dates, and they were lovely about it! We were both in love with the Bali -inspired decor and lush back gardens. The new manager was fantastic, and apologetic for the slight dust in our room, which she is on top of correcting,... More

we stayed in the "self contained cottage" Bali Bunya - not really self contained as we had expected - there was no kitchen sink just a hole under a piece of board! We were told we could wash our dishes in our bathroom basin but chose instead to go to the communal Kitchen across the main deck. Although charming and... More

On the sign outside the property of this nice small B&B it says that the prices are affortable. Our opinion after three nights in the Bali Banya room is that it's way overpriced. We payed $290/night and the room was not really clean. There is no good facility to cook for yourself, not even a sink in the kitchen. Dissapointing... More

I have mixed feelings about this place, so I will provide some details and let you form your own opinion. Located towards the end of a side street, allowing for some quiet away from the higher trafficked streets, but close enough to easily walk to all amenities in town. Old home that has been transformed using Balinese influences mixed with... More

There is a shared living room / kitchen / terrace which are really inviting to hang out the whole day. The garden surrounding the terrace is just wonderful. For single persons / couples who don't want to be isolated from other guests it's quite ideal because it's a perfect place to get in touch with the other guests / staff... More

The delightful manager Marty made me feel right at home at this relaxed and friendly B&B. As a solo traveller spending 11 days at Bamboo Cottage, I had lots of fun meeting other guests and sharing meals together on the deck in the garden. Marty is an exceptional host (and a true foodie) and shared great tips on local restaurants... More

What a find. This was our first experience at a B&B for more than a few days. From the moment we arrived to a welcome note and directions to our room from Marty our host (who was getting ready to go out to Bamboo Cottages' owner's 70th birthday bash dressed as a pirate with cicita on this shoulder), we knew...
