Super duper nice hosts, from the staff to the owner. Mr. Putu is very loving and accommodating. The hostel is very affordable. The food in their menu are delicious yet cheap. Try to have dinner or lunch. All yummy!

It’s an affordable accommodation, so do not expect that much. They have beautiful villa, but the property is old. Perhaps, they can make the entrance more attractive and make the bathroom tiles a bit whiter using clorox.

little variation of the breakfast, only one day we got a different fruit. not a big deal, but appreciated different fruit

Lovely bathroom and comfortable bed. They also helped me sort out my laundry.

Had a little insect scare in my original room, but it was quickly solved by changing me into another room.

We loved everything about our stay at Pondok Permata. Putu, Ketut and Anom were brilliant hosts and looked after us well. They were so welcoming and kind, we truly felt part of the family. Both Putu and Ketut took us on amazing tours and we got to eat at local Balinese warungs to experience the real Bali. The whole family went out of their way for us, even arranging a Balinese wedding ceremony for us at short notice. Pondok Permata is in a quiet location but only a short walk to the hustle and bustle of Ubud Town. Our room was clean and comfortable and beautifully presented. Breakfast was served in the room daily and we had the best banana pancakes we have ever tasted! We chose to eat most nights at their restaurant as the food was amazing and the price was very good. We booked all our tours through Putu and Ketut and we got to see everything we wanted and more. The price of the tours is also very good and every trip is comfortable in an air conditioned car. We took a cooking class at the homestay which was so interesting and informative and we got to learn a lot about the Balinese way of life. The family have 3 dogs and some birds and it was so relaxing to wake up to the sound of insects and birds tweeting each morning and have the dogs greet you every day! The accommodation is exceptional for the price and the family will literally take care of everything for you so you don't need to use any other services in Ubud. You can eat there, arrange your tours there, rent scooters there and nothing is too much trouble. Ketut even drove me to a pharmacy when I came down with a bit of a chest cold and constantly checked on me to see if I was okay or if I needed a doctor. Our holiday in Ubud was the best holiday we have ever had and that is all thanks to Putu, Ketut and their lovely family! I can't recommend Pondok Permata enough. If you're planning a trip to Ubud, you MUST stay there!

Nothing! Everything was perfect - we couldn't have asked for more!

well situated, the family was so nice. really comfort. they made our room, always asking about our program and if we need something. well situated, perfect place.

A beautiful homestay that absolutely exceeds value for money. The room was large, amazing bath tub and shower with plenty of hot water, and even a private kitchen with large fridge. Surprised and grateful for the TV; I was having issues with my laptop but could easily connect to the TV via a hdmi cable to get some essential work done. Loved being greeted by the family every time I came and left (especially the dad!). The homestay is in the north of Ubud, away from the main hustle, which is exactly what I wanted. Yes, you will hear a little bit of noise from the street- but that's inevitable in Bali. Bring earplugs and you're good to go. This place is so worth it! I'd absolutely stay again!

Just 2 notes about the private kitchen attached to the room I stayed in - I got a very low key electric shock as I tried to plug the kettle in. No big knife or chopping board provided to chop fruit and veg, but I'm sure the family would be more than happy to supply as needed.

very spacious and clean room, a nice garden, and friendly stafg

all was well, maybe a little bit of noise form the strewt

lovely staff, breakfast any time to your room, beautiful place

bit far from town but if you have a bike it’s no issue
