Griyatama Bungalow

Clean, nice bed, excellent food

None

Great value for money. Really friendly stuff.

It was a beautiful place. The bathrooms felt a bit stuffy but nothing crazy. The beds were very comfortable and linen was fresh and clean. The guy who greeted us, KATU, was lovely and very helpful. Food is delicious (had banana pancakes and dragon bowl). Highly commend this place :) very good value for money.

Everything was great.

Nothing

The room was new and clean, the outlook and landscaping beautiful, the lighting and power points were good, the bed was good.

Bathroom without ventilation, misaligned toilet seat, MVP coffee facilities in the room (instant sachets, no milk or creamer, tiny wooden cups) ... Communication with the resort was tiresome as I ended up with four Whatsapp contacts coordinating the ferry and car. Breakfast timing was a problem too, it wasn't ready at the agreed times and day 2 I lost my appetite listening to the sneezing and coughing in the kitchen.

Gede, the owner / manager went out of his way to make our stay easy and comfortable. He also arranged our transport, speed boat and pick up from harbour to Nusa Penida as well as back. He advised us on the perfect 2 day itinerary and provided a good driver and comfortable car. He speaks perfect English which made everything easier. The Bungalows are relative newly build and everything was perfect with attention to detail. The gardens are immaculate and all staff super friendly. We enjoyed the breakfasts and also one dinner that we ate at their restaurant. The bungalow is in a quiet area overlooking some palm trees, but close enough to be a short ride from all the tourist attractions. Gede even went as far as borrowing us his own Go-pro for the diving trip and downloaded all the videos for us. I will recommend Griyatama to anyone looking for a perfect yet affordable stay.

Nothing not to like

It was beautiful everyone was very friendly! We loved it so much!

Everything, the staff were friendly and very helpful. The room was lovely and clean. Air conditioning was excellent. Location was good, only about 5-6 kms from Crystal Bay beach which was a great place to swim and relax. Restaurant was great, good food and was able to order to the room.

Nothing, it was a great place to stay

Very friendly staff, great homemade food/breakfast, lovely bungalow! Everything was very clean and comfortable. The view of the beautiful garden and into the jungle is very nice.

They rent scooters, but even with a scooter it's challenging to go anywhere from the location of the hotel. Quite expensive compared to other stays in the area. At this price there should be a pool - maybe something for the future :).
