We're sitting on the large veranda of the Casuary room, enjoying the view of the rice fields, preparing to leave. We've been here 3 nights and it's been great. The service here has been exceptional. They can't do enough for you. The rooms are very basic, but what more do you want when you're on the edge of Monkey Forest.... More

Wonderfull place. The room and the services were perfect. (the room and the bathroom are huge) They are located in a small village just south of Ubud so it's more quite. They run a free service of shuttle from and to Ubud center. You can have your breakfast and afternoon Thea on your terrace with a nice view on rice... More

The village is a quiet haven, just a short walk through the monkey forest to the buzz of Ubud. The staff are impeccably professional and friendly (when we arrived they had a flower arrangement waiting for us with a card wishing us a happy honeymoon), the rooms are beautiful and clean, and the atmosphere is relaxed. We stayed in three... More

We returned to Alam Jiwa for our third visit and will continue to rate it as one of the best hotels we have stayed in anywhere in the world. They have got everything right, from the friendly welcome, to the beautiful rooms with privacy, private balconies or terrace and views across rice paddies to Mt Agung, tranquil water-filled gardens, great...

We stayed at Alam Jiwa for 3 nights and wish we could have stayed a little longer. The place is so serene and beautiful! The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. It is a perfect place for anyone who loves to be surrounded by beautiful nature and needs a break from hectic city life. Can't wait to go back.....

The attention to detail is superb and the villas are absolutely beautiful. Breakfast is wonderful, and can be served by your room or by the lovely pool. I stayed there twice with my parents and they could not have been more enchanted by their introduction to Bali. Superb, and great value!

Spent four days at Alam Jiwa. A nice escape from the somewhat hectic environs of Ubud. Good base for touring Bali. The location is in a word, serene. Flowing water everywhere. Interesting to shower au naturale with farmers working the rice fields walking by. Stayed three nights in the Merpati room and then had to move to Jataya because of... More
