Reviews for Arjuna Homestay
Review 1:They called a doctor for our daughter who told us she had a earinfection and charged us alot of money for consultation and antibiotics,we had to go to another doctor as she didnt get better and found out shehad no ear infection at all so the doctor was a fake and a rip off..
Review 2:Lovely staff who looked after our daughters and were very helpful andkind, lovely food too and good location..
Review 3:Very friendly staff, nice pool area and spacious room. Small and delicious breakfast buffet on the top restaurant. Only a 5 minute walk to the beach and the bio reef. We also got free snorkeling equipment from the hotel, which was very helpful! We can also highly recommend doing a snorkeling trip to Menjangan Island with them - fair price and it was just amazing!
Review 4:When we arrived there was a lot of mosquitos in the room, but hopefully there was a mosquito net. We were supposed to get a packed breakfast as we left early the last day but it appears they forgot about it.
Review 5:Friendly staff, nice and comfortable hotel, very convenient if you are diving.
Review 6:Very basic, not super clean in bathroom.. Bad smells. Shower needs a good scrub.
Review 7:Very close to ocean and good beach to snorkel at. Really nice restaurant right down the road, staff quite friendly.
Review 8:The snorkelling is not as long as it should have been. (Less than twice one hour).
Review 9:Beautiful place, nice staff. Organisation for massages and snorkelling trips.
Review 10:Nothing, our most preferred hotel in Bali, although we stayed at other hotels which were more comfortable (but also significantly more expensive)
Review 11:European staff taking care of details Breakfast on the roof, surrounded by gardens Nice swimming pool in the small garden Room with large balcony, sound-proof and very comfortable bed
Review 12:Could possibly do with a chair (for oldies!) In the room rather than just bean bags.
Review 13:Setting was nice, pool was good, access to dive company, friendly staff and owner.
Review 14:Warm welcome and very helpful staff. Beautiful place to stay and a really cool swimming pool. Nicely quiet and extremely good food! Nice bathroom and lovely beds. I cannot say anything bad about this place.
Review 15:The homestay has about 18 rooms, some of them with 6 six beds. Depending how many of them are occupied, it can get very busy.
Review 16:Very helpful staff - the French owner is a great guy !!! Nice pool area decorated in pop-art style All you can eat breakfast Rooms in 1st floor with "integrated sofa" overlooking the pool area Safe in room
Review 17:Facilities with out a TV
Review 18:Basically the whole stay in Arjuna Homestay was of a mix feelings. The staffs were overall good and friendly.which were something to Chris about.
Review 19:Breakfast pretty average, eggs either uncooked or overcooked, same with pancakes. Small selection.
Review 20:Rooms nice and clean, good bed, nice pool, nice staff, good diving facility.
Review 21:While not on the beach front, it is set down a quiet lane off the main road. Only a five minute walk to the beach. If you stay on the upper floor, your balcony overlooks the pool and looks out to the mountain....beautiful. Lovely swimming pool surrounded by beanbags. Very friendly owners. Dive shop there too...very accommodating.
Review 22:The owners are very accommodating, they even let us check out a bit late when we came back late from a volcano trip and needed to shower. The rooms, pool and food are also very nice. They can also arrange snorkeling and diving trips.
Review 23:Staff at breakfast didn't really communicate what was available. Seemed you could get additional items if you asked. Shouldn't have to ask.
Review 24:Quiet and comfortable. Nice pool. Close enough to beach.
Review 25:Few things needed to be fixed in the room. In the afternoon staff sometimes unresponsive.
Review 26:Pool is wonderful, balcony, breakfast. great diving on menjangan. good community.
Review 27:Nothing
Review 28:Great place with a nice vibe. Lovely rooms and very clean. Has a swimming pool. Dive shop. Definitely book a dive or snorkel trip to menjangan national park. The coral and fishes are so amazing. Nice restaurant with great food.
Review 29:Located 5 minutes from the beach by coral reef project makes it a perfect choice location wise. There are some tasty warungs lining the paths to the beach which means everything is close by so you can focus on relaxing. The hotel itself is stylish and comfortable. The staff are there to help if needed and can arrange activities to the marine park. I would definitely recommend staying here.
Review 30:Breakfast could be bigger (choice between fruits OR fruit juice and pancake OR toast with eggs) Snorkeling tour to Menjangan Island with the associated diving school was very nice but the guide wasn't really helpful (didn't even introduce himself...).
Review 31:Nice pool area Comfortable balconies on the first floor Easy to organize snorkeling/diving tours
Review 32:- staff is friendly but distinctive - a lot of rooms on a small area, can be crowdy in high saison
Review 33:- very clean rooms - nice swimming pool - goede uitvalsbasis voor activiteiten in omgeving
Review 34:The best service and laugh ever ! Wonderful diving, great price, great equipment, great place. A MUST to stay and dive in Bali Dont miss the Mandarin fish dive Dont skip a meal at the restaurant, great food and price
Review 35:The pool was just the right temperature and so convenient. Breakfasts were included and were delicious. Snorkeling equipment was also included in the very reasonable room cost.
Review 36:Despite the chef being good, things not made by the chef are not particularly good (we had to return a couple of dishes). The dishes in general are extremely small so they end up being rather expensive. I would recommend just going to the beach and eating at one of the beachside resorts. The hotel is a bit far from the beach (maybe good for some?). You might be charged for things outside your booking terms and conditions, like a penalty for using credit cards.
Review 37:Very helpful personale. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The diving operator offers very good prices and small groups. They are also happy to lend snorkeling gear.
Review 38:Maybe a soap would have been good. Had to go to the bar to use wifi
Review 39:Room was clean, beds comfortable, massage great, staff helpful, dinner good, nice pool
Review 40:My only minor negative comment would be small amounts of nuisance flies at breakfast time( may be the time of year).
Review 41:Good size room with comfy bed (+ nets) and cleaned regularly. The pool was surrounded by lush planting including water features. Evening meals were very tasty and well presented. The management looked after our needs and organised two ( snorkelling and birdwatching within the National Park) "trips" for us.
Review 42:No bath mat in bathroom
Review 43:Dive office on site, with a really nice calm instructor. The owner really persuaded us to try diving and we were so glad we did, it was amazing. 1st Diving lesson in extra deep swimming pool, which helped a lot. Great rooms, comfortable beds, hot water showers. Really good restaurant on site with reasonably priced meals Nice gardens to relax in, with bean bags around the pool. We will be back as soon for more diving and snorkelling soon
Review 44:We were surprised that the head fell off our shower late at night. We failed to mention it to the proprietor as we should have, our apologies.
Review 45:The staff was very helpful and kind, before and during our stay. Nice pool, adequate food, good advice on upscale local restaurants, etc. Very convenient that they have a driver dormitory when you are traveling with a driver.
Review 46:Wifi only on common area, but not that big a deal for us as there's plenty of space to chill out and chat on open air couches and poolside. Next door neighbours were either practicing for a dance or just liked one particular song as it was played loudly on repeat for most of our stay. We enjoyed the power outages a lot. (Permuteran wide)
Review 47:Big room, great pool, nice breakfast and choices for lunch and dinner (go the club sandwich), great shower. Scuba diving was fantastic, with quality divemasters who were really great. Trip to Ijen all organised by then and could pay with card. .
Review 48:There is no television in the room and wifi is only available in the common area
Review 49:It's more than just a homestay. I stayed in the family room towards beautiful and cozy garden with the swimming pool. The room is very spacious, it can accomodate for 5-6 persons.The bathroom is very clean and artistic. The spot i love the most is the open gazebo at the 2nd floor where you can gaze the stars at night, and you can do Yoga towards beautiful mountain scenery during the day. I think the owner really considered every single detail when they built it. The owner,natalie, is very hospitable to all guest, and there always security officer stand by and ready to help the guest during the night. The breakfast is simple but nice, pineapple pancake, banana pancake, fresh milk, toast bread with egg, and unlimited juice, coffee and tea :). Banyuwedang, the pier to Menjangan Island, the best snorkeling and scuba dive spot in Bali, is just 20 minutes drive from the homestay. Pemuteran bay where you can swim and snorkeling is just 5 minutes walking
Review 50:The food was great, it was really comfortable and quiet, the rate was reasonable AND we booked snorkelling through the hotel. It was all so easy and affordable. Don't change anything! :-)
Review 51:Lot of French people clinging together, laughing out loud with the French owners. Owners just talk to them, don't even say hi to other clients when entering the building, getting their breakfast before customers etc. One night our ac broke down, as well as the electricity and water. Went down at 5.30am, it was getting really hot. Had to search for staff somewhere, found one in the kitchen. This staffmember responded with 'I don't know' and walked away. At first thought she was going to ask someone else, but that was it... When asking again, it was told I had to wait for an hour untill the owner would arrive... Upon arriving of the owner, I had to draw her attention first and asking her about the ac (it was too hot to sleep...), she said 'okay we will make it' and walked away to her office. After 15 minutes I walked into her office and asked if someone was already taking a look at it? 'Oh no in the afternoon'. "Yeah well, I can't sleep...'. Her husband took a look at it, but it couldn't be fixed. They did call a mechanic anyhow, who fixed it later. But because of no shower and ac went to the beach and slept in the afternoon.
Review 52:After reading other reviews, we were wondering if we were at the same hotel. The hotel itself is fine; nice swimmingpool, rooms are fine (ac could be cooler), it is reasonably clean, looks fine, distance to the beach is okay (6min walk). But we didn't like the atmosphere at all, we felt really really unwelcome. There are definitely better options at Pemuteran like Taman Sari, where we stayed during the day.
Review 53:No internet in room, no dreading lamps. It is about a ten minute walk to beach. Breakfast was just average.
Review 54:Bed was great, ac was quiet. Owner could not have been more helpful, and always looking happy.
Review 55:The walk to the beach is only about 10 minutes but it was a bit of a drag with young children.
Review 56:The word "homestay" doesn't do the place justice. We have stayed in many "resorts" that were not as nice. The French couple who own it are delightful and the hotel, pool and garden are spotless. The owners organized tours, drivers, laundry and babysitting for us at reasonable prices.
Review 57:If you are looking for a place to relax, enjoy and feel like home, Arjuna is the place to stay. They will carefully take care of anything you might need. You will find the best food in town (much better than local restaurants) at a much better price, a great swimming pool and a friendly atmosphere. The Snorkeling and diving excursions they offer are absolutely worth. Definetly Arjuna Home Stay is place not to miss!!!!
Review 58:Restaurant "Frangipane" which seems to be affiliated to the hotel. It took 3 waitresses 45 mins to serve an expensive meal. The tuna wasnt cooked and had to be sent back and the whole place was completely lacking in atmosphere. 80's music playing in background - Did we really come all this way to listen to Abba? Some local music might overcome some of the lack of atmosphere issue.
Review 59:A good start for this new hotel. Good location near excellent diving and scub spots. Nice breakfasts. Don't come expecting flower petals and artistically folded towels - its not that sort of hotel, but a great location on the less discovered northern coast. The beach does not have the beautiful sands of the Gili isles, lombok etc, but having said that, we used sunbeds and nobody hassled us for money, and no beach hawkers. Unless you are on a tight budget, the hotels on the beach seemed to offer the best food and value.
Review 60:Great hospitality! Nice dive locations in the neighbourhood. The personel is very helpful. Breakfast is good. Beds are comfortabel. Surrounding are kept perfectly clean. Nice swimmingpool. Price-Quality is perfect!!
Review 61:Nice owners helped us to organize our trip, rooms were clean and quiet, nice pool, comfortable lounge area with sofas, breakfast with fruits and toast was alright (better than usually in Indonesia), only 5 min walk to the beautiful beach which was not that crowded, perfect for diving and relaxing
Review 62:Bathroom smelled.
Review 63:The snorkeling trip to Menjangan island was amazing and well organised. They also arranged a very good guide for a hike in the national park. Great beds!
Review 64:I only stayed two nights...
Review 65:Relaxing and friendly atmosphere, excellent and very helpful staff (Natalie), great diving/snorkeling options with Dive Concepts, comfortable room with valcony, very nice pool, good restaurant...
Review 66:No room safe.
Review 67:Off the main road but walking distance to other restaurants and the beach. Relaxed feel to the whole location. Could book a diving and snorkeling excursion with the owners' dive shop.
Review 68:Bathrooms have problems with drainage and smell very unpleasant. The system at breakfast could be improved- lots of people trying to use one toaster!
Review 69:Natalie and her husband were great Snorkelling trip to Menjara Island was excellent value Nice pool Comfortable bed Rooms upstairs have nice balcony
Review 70:This is 5 minutes away from the beautiful beach and nice snorkling area. But the value is so good for such a price.
Review 71:Pemuteran location is great without too many tourists. This is very quiet and the atmosphere of the hotel will have you remembered about your countryside childhood. Staff and mainly direction are really cool to get out of your stress. Wifi access is better in the vast lobby/swiming pool, influencing people to meet one at each other. Scuba diving center is a plus.
Review 72:I loved my second floor room with the balcony and day bed where I could relax and gaze up at the stars at night. I would highly recommend Arjuna for good value, comfortable and relaxing accommodation.
Review 73:Can't fault the accommodation, lovely rooms clean spacious. Great breakfast, we stayed 5 nights and also dived with Concept the operator on site good diving and well run dive business. Very relaxing place to stay, close to the beach and other facilities.

Review 119:They could provide complimentary drinking water in the rooms.
Review 120:The family room was great with comfortable beds and plenty of room. Convenient location, no road noise as the property is set back 200 meters from the main road. It is another 100 meters or so to the beach and it's a straight shot to the biorock snorkeling area. There are several excellent local and resort restaurants within walking distance. They will arrange all transport and excursions such as hiking in the National Park and day trips to go diving and snorkeling with the professional on-site dive shop. Very comfortable and trouble free stay.
Review 121:On-site dive school made our snorkelling trip to Menjangan Island very easy. Great bidet toilet, and hot showers. Lovely pool. Very friendly owner and dive staff. Supermarket close by with reasonable prices for grog etc... (Free) WiFi was no slower than other places in Bali - nearly all internet connection is via the mobile network (not cable or adsl) and is slow when the network is congested (lots of users) - what do people expect for free?
