Bali Basuki Retreat Center

the place is close to the Besakih temple

Dirty bedsheets (spots, hair and bad smell) moldy smelling towel dirty toilet and shower very humid room no WiFi (at least no chance to get the password) host not available (triwd via WhatsApp, booking) Absolutely overpriced for this basic, dirty accomodation. The worst for me was that the host was not available at all. I booked 2 nights, but left after one. I wrote a letter to the host, asking to accept a refund, still no reaction on booking. I guess that place has potential, but I felt very uncomfortable . I was the only guest, but in the evening there was still someone walking in front of my room which didnt give me the best feeling. I don't reccomend!

Super affordable accommodation fabulously close to the Besakih mother temple. This is not a glamorous hotel but a lovely, authentic locally owned and run retreat centre where you mix with other guests and can use the kitchen to cook. Beautiful pagoda for meditation/relaxing looks over an amazing view. I will return! 😃

Amazing value but might be tricky to find though Google maps does a good job.

Proche des temples et surtout du plus grand de Bali celui de basakih . Proche des départs trekkings vers le volcan ugung je recommande Ziaki Aventure . Toujours disponible pour rendre services Petit déjeuner et repas sur place

Les machines à laver ne fonctionnent pas . L’éclairage est couleur néon très blanc et très blanc il manque une petite lampe de chevet avec une lampe couleur chaude

Der Gastgeber ist sehr freundlich und gibt gute Tipps. Über ihn konnten wir auch einen Motorroller mieten. Es gibt eine gut ausgestattete Küche und einen schönen kleinen Garten mit Ausblick. Man kann sich auch eine Yogamatte ausleihen und Yoga machen. Außerdem kann man sich einen Sorong für Tempelbesuche leihen. Es gibt kostenloses Trinkwasser, Tee, Kaffee und Kekse. Das Frühstück war auch sehr gut. Insgesamt ist die Lage sehr ruhig und hoch gelegen, sodass es nachts eher kühl ist und man keine Klimaanlage braucht.

Die Küche war leider nicht so deutlich sauber und in der Früh lag immer Tierkot auf dem Boden verteilt. Aber das ist kein Wunder, denn alles ist nach draußen hin offen. Das Kissen war nicht besonders bequem.

Tranquil location so close to the beautiful temple. Lovely family run business and gorgeous yoga room and the chance to meet with Manku. I loved that because we were staying there, we got to stay at the temple after hours when it was quiet and could use the tickets over 2 days. A nice place to rest over a couple of days and enjoy this beautiful sacred surroundings.

This retreat is run by the family of a Hindu priest. It has eight comfortable rooms a communal kitchen and dining space a a large meditation hall with the priest’s own altar. He meets with guests and introduces them to a short prayer ceremony if they are interested. It’s a short walk across the river to Besakeih temples but you have to buy your ticket and walk up from the main entrance the first time. The rainforest, the small farms and the longer walks toward My Agung are wonderful.

My only grumble is about the careless attitude of other visitors toward kitchen clean ups! There are no full time staff so communication can also be a bit slow sometimes and you definitely want to book your own transport out.
