Puri Taman Sari is located in an isolated part of south west Bail. BF and I drove there ourselves, from Permuteran via Jatiluwih and Wongayagede. The drive was incredibly scenic, winding through mountains and rice paddies, but the roads heavily eroded and potholed in parts (especially the section where tourists are charged a toll to use the roads!), and there...

I stayed here for 2 nights and the setting is absolutely amazing. Set amid the rice fields with authentic Balinese buildings, one could feel like they were in Bali decades ago. Service was wonderful with many friendly staff. Breakfast was included but was minimal and unfortunately not very good. A little off the beaten track but if you want a... More

After 49 holidays in Bali (I love this beautiful island) I finally discovered Puri Taman Sari Hotel in Umabian. Umabian is about 5 kilometer north of Mengwi. Puri Taman Sari was once a palace of the King of Mengwi. Now it is used for receiving guests who are looking for the real authentic Bali as it always was. History is... More

Location is remote and you are at the mercy of the hotel for driver pricing, visited ubud for half a day, be careful as driver stoped... More

Puri Taman Sari is a beautiful resort of a few dozen rooms outside the village of Menguwi, in the foothills near Tabanan. This area is quieter than the mad tourist hotspots of Kuta and Seminyak, and much the better for it. We stayed in a "deluxe" villa, a short walk away from the main complex with a view of the... More
