Umah Ilu Island Retreat Penida

This property is up a hill and secluded from the main road of Nusa Penida. It is walkable, but they also offer a free shuttle for those needing a ride. The view from our room was incredible - you can easily see the water but are also surrounded by stars at night. The hosts were the friendliest we've ever met and so helpful! Breakfast is delivered to your door each morning. You can tell so much care has been put into the facilities.

The view and the entire resort. You can see that everything was built with taste and to be as traditional as possible. Putu and the entire team will make sure that you will have everything you need for your stay in Nusa Penida. The breakfast is very tasty and it is brought to your room at the desired hour. If we'll be back to Nusa Penida, we will choose this place for sure ♡.

The shower area can be improved.

The rooms and the gardens were absolutely stunning. They also deliver your breakfast to the room in the morning which is very convenient. It’s a great place for couples and honeymooners as it’s very relaxing. The beds were super comfortable and the shower was really nice with proper hot water flow. The staff were also really nice and they offer a complimentary shuttle service that will take you to town and pick you up again.

The roosters going crazy the whole night so if you’re a light sleeper make sure to wear earplugs. They have firepits with wood and we would have loved to make a fire and sit around it with some wine but the sprinklers were constantly going so this wasn’t an option. The accommodation is up on a hill and not within walking distance from town. You will need transportation. We rented a scooter for all the days and the staff will assist with this. Scooter deffo helped as we got around the island to all the sites and was easy to get to town and back. It’s quite hilly up to the accommodation with narrow roads so make sure you’re comfortable driving a scooter.

The cabins are located in a wonderful garden on top of a hill with a stunning view on the sea and Bali. It’s very peaceful and quiet and the staff is super friendly. Rooms are basic but there is everything you need, clean and tidy.

Would have been nice if there was a swimming pool, also no tv in the room in case you’re looking for this. The breakfast is brought to the room so in case you’re travelling with family our friends that stay in another cabin you can not have the breakfast together.

Staff were wonderful. They provided a free pick up and drop from the harbor. Also provided free taxi service to go out for dinner. Beautiful place, Quiet location and would love to go back. Pancake were awesome. Thanks for making our stay memorable.

I really love the property. it is really nice, the bed is cozy, the place is quiet. their staffs are superb!! they gave us big coconut for welcome drink. we did bbq at night and they made us bamboo stick to grill the hotdogs and burgers. their efforts to made us happy is 1000%.

Beautiful secluded property with views overlooking the hills and out to the ocean!

The hosts were exceptional, the customer service was first class. The taxi/shuttle service they offer was as good as I’ve seen, which is very important on an island like Nusa Penida. We would WhatsApp message the host who would reply v quickly and pick us up from where we were. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at this hotel. We booked day trips with them as well, both island tours and a Manta Ray snorkelling trip with a private boat - both 10/10 experiences. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

There is no swimming pool on site although the pictures suggest there are. The location is off the beaten track a bit meaning you need transport to get to the nearest amenities really - however their shuttle service covers this issue.

The views were incredible, the rooms were lovely and the breakfast was tasty. Location is not far from the bars/restaurants etc. The staff were really helpful - they picked us up on arrival to Nusa Penida and arranged transport throughout our stay. Highly recommend
