Family hotels and homes in Pengastulan

I had the pleasure to stay there with my wife and 2 kids. It is truly a stunning place up in the hills to stay and relax. The cleanliness of the facilities, the beautiful and meticulous maintained garden, the view of the ocean, the friendly staff, a host (Sri) that goes to great lengths to accommodate every request ...

Amazing peaceful hotel with a private beach. Super Breakfast! Very friendly staff

Tranquil, private bungalow, surrounded by gardens and shade, a relatively spacious deck area with plenty of lounge choices, including hammock, and a raised platform slightly removed from the main house, where you can dry off after dipping into the pool. A perfect oasis, just down the road from Brahmavihara Arama, and a short scooter ride to Banjar hot springs. Koming the manager cooks delicious food and took me on a local walk through the small farms with plentiful fruit, nuts, spices and veges. There is a double bed and a single bed. Great for solo travellers, couples, or small family. The house is owned by an expat, and managed by the family who own the land so it feels very homely. One of my favourite places in Bali 🙂

The host was incredibly kind and hospitable. He helped me with transportation and even drove me to different places during my stay. The villa itself was clean, modern, and peaceful—perfect for a relaxing getaway.

Nice setting in garden. Easy to check in late at night.

The best place on the North of Bali Very friendly, helpful owners and stuff Perfect swimming pool and apartments;) 10/10 !!

When we first arrived, the entrance looked a little different from the photos online, but the moment we stepped inside, we were welcomed into a beautiful home. Everything you could possibly need is there. The living room is spacious, with a lovely covered terrace and a wonderful swimming pool to relax by. The bedrooms are also large and equipped with good air conditioning — perfect after a warm day exploring. But the most special thing about Rumah Riang is without a doubt the incredible hospitality of Putu, Ria, and their family. From the very beginning, they made us feel completely at home. Although there’s a well-equipped kitchen, Ria prepares the most delicious Balinese meals — both lunch and dinner. She’s a fantastic cook, and nothing is ever too much for them. Every meal was different and full of authentic local flavors and made with so much love and care. During our stay, we also joined The Mayong Cultural Walk, which is an absolute must-do! Putu takes you on a fascinating journey through the rice fields of the Mayong Valley, passionately explaining everything that grows there — not just rice, but also durian, palm trees, and the intricate irrigation systems that make Balinese agriculture so special. His deep knowledge of plants, farming, and local culture is impressive, and the way he shares it — full of humor, energy, and great storytelling — makes the walk both fun and educational. He also loves to connect local words and traditions to other languages and cultures, which we Dutch visitors found especially engaging! After the walk, we were treated to another delicious homemade lunch prepared by Ria — authentic Balinese flavors at their very best. We stayed at Rumah Riang for two nights and got a beautiful glimpse into the life of a local Balinese family — full of kindness, warmth, and hospitality. It’s an experience we will never forget.

The host very communicative, make sure we got the villa .

Breakfast: was toast and Jam but we weren't worried as we had the full kitchen facilities we could have cooked ourselves or go to a nearby restaurant or have it ordered by Grab. Swimming Pool: was big enough could even accommodate a family of 5 -7 easily. bedrooms: the rooms are good in size and they are next of each other with separated entrance from the outside which makes it also suitable if you are 2 families. living room: is separated from the bedrooms and huge
