This hotel was amazing. Set in the jungle area, the scenery was stunning. View from room was gorgeous with sunrise over the valley. Room beautiful with large balcony to relax on. Many steps but so worth it and there is a funicular to assist down to the pool.amd spa. Food amazing, cocktails delicious. Staff very friendly. Highly recommend this property.

*Bathing Body Speech and Mind in Holy Water*

We came across Nandini by hanging gardens when searching for purification journey in Bali. We are very grateful to Mr Magnus Falk for
1. creating safe access almost vertical downhill
2. to the energy densed river
Thank you Mr Magnus

It began the first 2 times, for us, as a Body pilgrimage as muscles were cold. It felt like in a realm of never ending stairs. But it's a sense of reward accomplishment when we reached the yogic platform and the holy water bamboo pipe collection.

We went for the Rejuvenation Balinese massage. Muscles warmed up and circulations unblocked. Freed out Mind making the 3rd journey down like walking into heaven with the river angels.

It's a luxurious beautiful suite we were put in with a heavenly balcony waking up to a golden sunrise. The attendants of every department were very attentive. Thank you Agus frontdesk team and Wild Ginger team Novita, Lestari for making the stay a memorable one.

The jungle sounds were like the creatures singing a relaxing tune. Casts out the negativity bringing about our transformation to positive speeches of constructive words.

This is one of the most beautiful, tranquil settings you will ever stay at. We stayed in a Panorama View Villa overlooking the pool. Incredible sunrises, amazing deck with couch and hanging egg chair to relax on. We saw monkeys from our room, but no bugs etc in the room. The staff couldn't be more helpful or friendly, they get to know you and your drinks order. Great selection from Restaurant for dinner and breakfast (we didn't have lunch there). Balinese dance performances each night or acoustic performance. Courtesy shuttle to town which is about 25 minutes from property. Plenty of day beds and sun lounges around pool, and pool bar. Complimentary 1 hour massage was amazing. Also complimentary afternoon tea and nibbles, great happy hour at the main bar - fabulous staff. Short walk with stairs down to the river beneath the property, but worth going down to see. There are a lot of stairs at the property, but very easily walkable, and there is an elevator from the lower rooms. Try and have at least 1 full day at the property without going anywhere just to enjoy the stunning tranquil setting.
Would go back and stay again any time. Absolutely loved out stay at a very special property.

Amazing for heavy sleepers.

This hotel was lovely. The service was some of the best I’ve ever experienced. If you stay you should make a point of attending afternoon tea. They rotate the “tea” and snacks everyday. The pool was awesome. There is even free morning yoga with a guy who is very good at yoga. The bathtub was really comfortable for me 6’0” 250lbs and my wife at the same time. Wife really enjoyed the nightly chocolate.

Now to balance that raving review that I would dismiss as a bot when I see it there are things which could be improved.
There are rosters next door that start at 3:30am. Light sleepers should bring earplugs.
The internet maxed out for me at less than 2mbs and I could only get that when the roster woke me before 6am. Most of the time it was less than 1mb. Also there was a period where the Internet was out because of something upstream of them. Which is to say email fine, VoIP calls first thing in the morning okay. Anything more would lead to disappointment.

Their next door neighbors were using a chainsaw all day. Not the hotels fault but definitely made enjoying the pool and jacuzzi less relaxing.

There weren’t any yoga blocks at yoga which bothered my wife.

There were wine bottles and opener in the room but the place where wine glasses would hang was empty. I’m sure they would have brought some if asked.

After travelling around Indonesia for over 3 weeks, we chose this location as the last place to stay, as the saying goes, YOU LEAVE THE BEST FOR LAST.
And it sure was an amazing experience. The ambiance is superb just like a peace of Eden's Garden. Everything was amazing about Nandini Jungle Resort but what make the place the heaven it truly is, is the people that work and run the place. Well done everyone for giving us the experience to enjoy all Gods creation in one place.

Secluded and peaceful

A perfect place to unwind and relax. The meals at the resort were expensive but as the resort is so far from anything it was the best option for us. The pool was stunning however it was best utilised in the morning till mid afternoon as it did get chilly as soon as the shade came over ( understandably as it is in the jungle). Absolutely loved the feee yoga each day by the pool as well.

Dangerous - only for the sure footed

Arrived after midnight during a rain storm. Should have left then, but we had non-refundable reservations for 3 nights. The good: Management staff are nice an will quickly and easily book trips for you - take advantage of this service. Breakfast is ok. Massage at spa is nice, but pedicure is basically a polish change - but certainly not priced as just a polish change. Scenery is lovely, nice mountain views, very green.

Do not go to this resort unless you are very fit and can climb up and down VERY steep steps/stairs without the use of handrails. There is a little outdoor elevator that is cute, but doesn't go most of the places you need to go. You have to go up and down stone steps to go most every where (pool, front desk, restaurant). They say if you want to have a massage at the river you have to use steps. What they do not tell you is that these are very steep steps that have a broken metal handrail in places and that is is several flights of steps - not just a few steps. Also the stone stairs that go to the room are very poorly lit at night and I was almost in tears going back to my room after dinner because they were wet, slippery and I had nothing to hold on too - the stone steps have stone walls with no handrail and are covered with ivy/grass. Very very dangerous.

Also, food is very very expensive at the resort. Way over priced. Also, when we arrived our room was full of flying ants/termites. Do not recommend to go with small children or teenagers

Nature beauty

Hotel is surrounded by natural beauty which is the best part about it, else its very very far from the airport. Most of the times the hotel staff couldn't understand what we were saying. Only the manager was able to understand the English. room was not having any seating apart from bed which was lil uncomfortable. We really enjoyed the food there but that was not constant. One day it was superb but another day we were disappointed by the breakfast. On the day of our check out we asked for the breakfast in room as was not feeling well but the hotel staff directly said that we will be charged for that which was really rude.

Best hotel we've ever stayed at!

Stayed at Nandini Jungle for 2 nights - arrived late at night (10.30pm) and the staff were incredibly accommodating. Incredible rooms with the most serene views of the jungle - could not be a more relaxing place to stay. Pool is lovely and also very quiet, plenty of sun loungers to go around - open 24 hours which is nice (there is also a hot tub). Food was great and also a reasonable price - very good selection on offer! Breakfast was included and couldn't have been better - they do the best pancakes in the WORLD. A lovely bar featuring a great selection of cocktails and wines is open until late in the evening so perfect to relax in. Staff were lovely, friendly and chatty. Spa is also lovely (outdoor and very peaceful), and we received a free foot massage - regret not having more treatments! Overall, could not have had a better experience - we will DEFINITELY be coming back next time we are in Bali.

Reconnecting with Nature

The Hotel is located up hill and near the river. the entrance does not look like a typical hotel entrances because it is surrounded by rice fields. But it actually worked because we were really surprised once we got in inside. The hotel staff are warm headed by one of their receptionist, IWAN. The villas are beautiful and spacious. they even have the Gondola ride that serves like an elevator. although it was faulty at times when we were there. The pool and jacuzzi facilities were great! and the spa really gives you a very relaxing experience.

If you and your partner or family or even yourself would want to have a date with nature for your next holiday, Nandini Jungle Resort and Spa is one of the best hotels for you.

Amazing hotel in stunning location

This hotel is in a stunning location in the jungle overlooking a river. The pool and hot tub are the ultimate places to relax, and the rooms all have balconies, which are visited by monkeys.

Everything was clean and comfortable, and the staff were some of the nicest most polite people I've ever met.

Only thing I would say is that this hotel is a 30 min drive out of Ubud, and the shuttle only leaves 3 times a day, so if you don't take that a taxi costs about £10 (if you haggle!). The food and drink in the hotel are a little expensive compared to Bali prices, but eating there is a very relaxing experience.

Lovely isolated hotel in depth of jungle

Although it's geared towards a romantic retreat for couples the hotel performs very well as a retreat location for lone travellers. Each bedroom with ensuite is sited in a thatched villa with an outside balcony. Most balconies are not overlooked - a few exceptions being the villas next to the gondola (=jungle lift, the hotel is built on a steep slope). Jungle creatures far noisier than any sounds coming from other guests. Villas seem to be well soundproofed.

I had serious reservations about going on holiday with the trouble experienced with EXPEDIA. However this location took my breath away, the villa we had was kept clean at all times. Spa treatment on the river is to be experienced as a must, even the gondola type lift to the levels fitted in perfect and was novel.3x daily shuttle to the town was perfect. Food choices both breakfast and dinner varied, entertainment added subtly. One never outstays their welcome here.

Could not fault Nandini, not one bit! The best! We had such a lovely & amazing experience during our stay. The resort is so beautiful and has that kampung and forest living feel. Warm welcome by the staffs, they're all very nice & friendly. Hotel manager Iwan did a great job, very attentive in making sure every guests enjoyed their stay. He suggested Water Rafting activity to us and we're glad that we did went for it, it was such a fun adventure! The food at the restaurant was very nice as well, we enjoyed our breakfast & dinner there. Occasionally there will be performances during dinner time. We ride the bicycle around the area and visited the paddy fields & temples around & also Hanging Gardens of Ubud which is just a short distance away. Room was lovely, we've been woken up by sunrays on our faces in the morning, and we stayed in bed watching sunrise from behind the trees and missed the free 7am yoga. Beautiful pool area. Wonderful massages at the spa. Overall a very relaxing & peaceful resort. We will definitely come back! We love the cable car ride to our villa too. :)
