Sakti OceanView Nusa Penida

It’s really quiet, has a beautiful view, and it’s only a 10-minute steep walk to the beach

The bathroom is smelly and hot - the sun is shining into that side of the bungalow all day and it’s not well insulated, so you can’t use AC. And mosquitoes get into the bathroom somehow, probably through the roof. The breakfast was ok but we had some ants in our food, not great. Taxi from/to the port is a bit overpriced but they drive you all the way to the hotel, even on the very poor road that some other drivers may be reluctant to drive on.

The apartment is located close to the beach, approximately a 10-minute walk away, and offers a nice ocean view. The bedroom is fine.

The toilet had an unpleasant odor, and the shower water leaked onto the floor, leading to a perpetual mess. The food was decent, but nothing exceptional, prompting me to dine elsewhere. The Wi-Fi was quite poor, and the electricity supply wasn't in the best condition - the boiler and phone charging took nearly double the usual time. The most disappointing aspect was the owner's service. Initially, they offered a friendlier approach but proposed nearly double the price for a fast boat and a scooter compared to the online price that we paid, claiming it as a 'special deal.' During our four-night stay, the owner became unresponsive for a few days, citing their absence at a temple ceremony (for two days?). We also utilized their laundry service without being informed of the cost upfront, only to discover it was twice as expensive as any other laundry service in town - charging us 8 euros for a small bag. Upon receiving the clothes on our last day, we found numerous stains on them. Despite our request for reimbursement, they were uncooperative, providing frivolous excuses, and so they told us they don’t own the laundry and don’t have contact information of them (what is impossible) and they already paid and that’s why they can’t give us money back. After long discussion they refunded around 20%, but the clothes remained stained, necessitating further washing (and it was pretty challenging to remove the stains). It seemed apparent that the host prioritized money over customer satisfaction. It was the first such bad experience at the end of our otherwise long and enjoyable trip. We felt deceived and taken advantage of, this influenced our mood of course. Even the place itself is pretty, I WOULDN’T recommend this place to stay. There are a lot of other apartments nearby to choose.

The views, the bedroom everything was so nice! The person who runs it is so friendly

The bathroom is old and next to the toilet there is the shower and it’s quite difficult to manage. There are a lot of ants (but we are un the forest so it’s quite normal

Amazing view. Adventurous road. Great rooms and comfy beds. Very peaceful location The staff were lovely bringing me candles when the power went out of the island.

More info about snorkelling opportunities on arrival because I missed the opportunity trying to organize it and it getting too late in the day to go that morning.

awesome view would recommend and will return next time

location and view

Agus was exceptionally helpful, even before we arrived, assisting us with scooter hire, excursions etc. Wonderful to deal with. The location is amazing and the views spectacular. The room was clean and spacious.

Dog barking throughout the night.

Amazing view! Lovely staff and great location. The food was nice and the room was comfortable.

The room was a little bit smelly but this didn't ruin the overall experience. It is also quite out of the way
