If you're looking for peaceful jungle village vibes in Bali, this is the place!

Wow, what a place to stay in Sidemen. The best accomodation we stayed in for our whole trip. I have a bit of a rule of thumb when travelling in Bali that every place you stay in there will be 'something' wrong with it, it will never be as good as the photos, so as to set expectations and not get disappointed. But this place proved me wrong – it was perfect, and better than I'd expected. If you are looking for a relaxing place to stay in Bali and escape the overcrowded touristy hotspots, Sidemen is a dream and this place is just what you need. The pool is so tranquil, the staff are the loveliest, the food at the restaurant is delicious. We will definitely be coming back!

Very good

Nice hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Quiet and relaxing place in the nature. We stayed here for 3 nights and visit the east of Bali.

Lots of humidity in this area of Bali, you feel it a lot in the room. The house where we slept was really nice on the outside, but needs an inside refreshment. Not much choice for breakfast.

If you're looking for peace and quiet and wanting to experience unspoilt Bali, come to Sideman!

We were fortunate enough to stay in the best room available. It had the most stunning views of the mountains and rice paddy fields. The suite was exceptionally private and very spacious with a huge canopy bed. The bathroom was deluxe and had the same amazing views as the bedroom.

There was a problem with out air conditioning which was resolved when reported.

The hotel is nothing but amazing. Myself and my mum stayed for couple nights. It was our first few nights in Bali and it was the best decision to begin holiday in such relaxing atmosphere. Our rice terrace suite was clean and spacious, bed was comfy and breakfast was superb. Tranquility and surroundings are just hypnotizing,.. Staff is extraordinary... From the moment we have arrived we felt very welcome. Everybody is very warm and kind and always with big smiles on the face. We also booked a traditional massage. Not only it was great, it was done under open sky while listening to nature sounds. Sky illuminated by super blue moon was a bonus too! I would most certainly stay in Cepik Villa next time when visiting Sidemen :)

Absolutely nothing to fault, everything was perfect!

3 day rest

Big room with big bed. Great Pool with a view. Amazing and helpful staff. Would recommend to use it for maximum 2-3 days.

Food was mediocre. Breakfast was good, but dinner and lunch - very simple. Location is beautiful but no activities besides resting by the pool.

A beautiful hotel with a gorgeous restaurant and views

This hotel is gorgeous. I was only staying for one night and I wish I could have stayed longer. It overlooked the rice fields and had an amazing restaurant where I had the best nasi goreng ever. My room overlooked the rice terraces and was so comfortable - it was the best night sleep I’ve had for my whole month of travelling. Real luxury!

Nothing - the whole place was amazing

We loved our stay at Cepik Villa.

The ambience, the gardens, the views were amazing. It was peaceful and relaxing, only the frogs and geckos at night- so lovely. The staff were lovely and helpful and the food at the restaurant that looked over the gardens and hills,was really tasty and beautifully presented. The bed was comfy, air con and shower, and toiletries excellent . Thank you so much.

Beautiful hotel, set in beautiful scenery The food at the hotel was fine, breakfast to order was lovely. There is a strip of Warungs 5 mins walk from the hotel to enjoy, I read some reviews that said there was nothing nearby but it's a quieter area and there is. Staff were lovely

Beautiful stay with great views and attentive staff

Beautifully maintained properly overlooking rice terraces. We stayed 4 nights in the sunrise suite and it was spacious and comfortable.

The a/c wasn’t working properly in our room so sometimes felt a little warm. Also, the food at the resort restaurant was just okay so outside of breakfast which was included, we ate at other nearby restaurants.

Very good

It was a very beautiful villa. We had booked the rice terrace suite for our honeymoon. The suite was very specious and beautiful. It had a hot bathtub as well. The rice terrace view from the balcony was also very amazing.

The food was really bad. I had ordered a vegetable club sandwich and it was not edible at all. It was terrible in taste. The location is also not very accessible for taxis from mainland. The local Grab and Gojek will not work here. So if you are planning to stay here, better make arrangements for your return car in advance. The hotel arranges cars for your return, but they will charge you 30 USD for a return trip. They also have a tell us in advance policy, so if you want to avail any services like breakfast, dinner or return car, you'll need to inform them one day prior. This seemed like a very strange policy. Not sure why they do it.

Lovely spacious rooms and a quiet property. Only a small number of rooms, which makes it feel very private. Nice pool, great views of the rice fields. The restaurant was excellent, some of the best food we had in Bali! The staff were very helpful in arranging transportation, activities, massages, etc. We had a lovely stay.
