Where Heaven Meets Earth From the moment I stepped onto the stone pathway, surrounded by whispering frangipani trees and the gentle murmur of the sacred river below, I knew Pondok Sebatu Villa was no ordinary place. This is where Bali's soul lives – in the dappled sunlight through ancient trees, in the morning mist curling over emerald rice terraces, and in the quiet kindness of every smiling staff member who made me feel not like a guest, but like family returning home. The Villa That Stole My Heart Waking in our thatched-roof sanctuary to the symphony of nature – birds calling, water flowing, leaves rustling – was like being gently pulled from the sweetest dream. The infinity pool became my sacred space, where I'd float for hours watching clouds dance across the sky, the water so perfectly still it mirrored heaven above. Every corner of the villa whispered thoughtful details from the hand-carved woodwork to the fresh offerings gracing our doorstep each dawn. To the Angels of Pondok Sebatu Villa You've created more than a luxury retreat – you've built a temple of tranquility where weary hearts can mend. I arrived exhausted from the world, and left with my spirit lighter, my smile easier, my faith in beauty restored. The scent of your incense still lingers on my clothes, and every time I close my eyes, I'm back in that paradise where time stood still. For anyone seeking not just a vacation, but a homecoming for the soul – this is for you.

We had an excellent stay at Pondok Sebatu. We stayed with our teenager in the 2 bedroom villa with private pool, which was very affordable in $AU. The location is idyllic if you are looking for a less touristy, more authentic experience of Balinese traditional life. We were nestled in the hills in Central Bali, surrounded by small properties with rice fields. We saw local wood carvers and artisans selling items from their homes and shops. The facility is very pleasant with warm, responsive and kind staff who can quickly arrange anything from a day tour of Ubud to an airport taxi to laundry, a massage or room service via a quick whatsapp request. Local drivers, spa staff, cooks and concierges are employed and there is a real sense of community building at the Villa. I highly recommend this villa to anyone with a genuine interest in combining learning about other cultures with being “spoiled” with much needed relaxation, in beautiful surroundings.

A Jewel to be Discovered

I was in awe of nature's lush green curtain comprising verdant rice terraces, palms, and tropical trees. This is the backdrop to Pondok's individual contemporary 'Joglu' rooms. It is a dizzying beauty that transfixes one's gaze. From the pictures it looked a wonder. For real it is transcendent. Perfect for a retreat. Perfect for rest and relaxation. Perfect to ponder in. And Perfect to wander in. The location requires one to be steady on foot, and reasonably fit. Otherwise one has all to be nourished by the environment. Pak Denik, the Manager was particularly welcoming, and the Front of House staff, Misses Yogi. The views are restful and remain in mind.

Nice valley view but deem swimming pool at night.

The valley view was amazing. The room is clean, and bed is comfy. The location is 30~40 mins from ubud city centre, but it gave a peaceful and quiet vibes, away from the big crowd. The villa provides free shuttle to ubud city centre (departure 10am and pick up 3pm) daily, or you can rent a motorbike to ubud city centre if you wish. The only downside was the swimming pool at night. The lights were insufficient so it looked dim overall. Not a good idea to swim after dark when you couldn't see what inside the pool at night.

Nice hotel with excellent service. Room was nice, ample and comfortable with a great view to the rice fields. Hotel restaurant was great, all the food was of excellent quality and tasty, service was great. The Spa was perfect we got several Balinese massages which were perfect after a long day of walking.

Getaway

Truly a beautiful place for a get away in Bali. If you like to be away from the bustle of the city & touristy crowds this is the place to unwind. The room had a traditional Balinese vibe to it with a beautiful view. They also had a pool, restaurant with free breakfast, yoga class, morning walking tours around the area & shuttle bus services. The place is a bit away from the city which you will need transport to get to but otherwise it is a great stay.

Charming, quiet resort with Wonderful staff

Stayed here for 5 nights and wishing we could have stayed longer. Right from the time we checked in, to when we left, the staff were so friendly and helpful. Although outside Ubud, their shuttle is efficient and included in the price. Location is is in the quiet countryside among rice paddies. We took bikes from the resort several times and biked through the area. Rooms are well appointed, and most equipped with a plunge pool. Restaurant serves great food at reasonable prices, and other services like laundry also readonably priced. Definitely a great option if you're looking for the authentic Balinese experience.

Beautiful Villa but far away from everything

My family and I had a great 7 days stay at the Villa. It's surrounded by beautiful rice paddies and bushes just like photos posted on the website. Staff were very nice, always smiling, patient , fast to respond when we needed help, a fantastic experience in general, except for a few issues needed to be mentioned. We booked a two bedroom Villa two months in advance,but when we checked in, we were allocated two single bedroom Villa with separate entrances. We are surprised to learn that the two bedroom Villa we booked was given to another couple. It was 10 PM , and after a long and tired dispute with the front desk and over the phone with the manager, we had to settle with moving back to our Villa next day, with a day tour and massage as compensation, with lack of explanation and an apology. Daily room cleanings were generally good but there was no unified standard applied; soap and toothpaste weren't replaced daily even when insufficient (had to be requested), and bins weren't emptied daily even when full (had to be requested).Used towel weren't always change . On the last day, though we left early before our use of the room was up, they did not even bother to change the towels as they thought it wasn't necessary, even after we had paid for a whole day's fee.we had to use the same towels which had been used the previous night . Hot water faulted twice over the duration of our stay. In one instance, the hot water stopped in the middle of showering.

Tranquility in rice fields

The villa was a bit difficult to find but once there it was like heaven after the business of Ubub and Kuta. The pools are beautiful. We had a look at the upper 'family' villas with frog pool. All I can say is 'wow'. The staff let us swim there one day as nobody was staying there. It was great. We stayed in the villas with no pool except the general one. It too was lovely and the proximity to the pool and restaurant was great. There were three shuttles into town and back per day with the he trip one way lasting about one hour. The drop off/on spot was very central and easy to access. The food at the hotel was great. We had wonderful ala carte breakfasts and dinners were well priced and tasty. Try the chicken tutu or the beef rengang. The surroundings are very agrarian and it was quite lovely walking amid the rice patties. We stayed 4 nights and were sad to leave.

Wonderful 2 bedrooms villa -private infinity pools

We loved everything, the villas, private infinity pools were so great (my boys love to swim in it), view of rice terrace and coconuts trees were so beautiful. the staff were wonderful and helpful, we met the lady owner ( who is nice). we went to visit rice farmers when harvesting time and we went for neighbourhood walk with guide provided by the hotel (free), it was great experience. It is a quite, peaceful place far from busy Ubud, 35 minutes from Ubud, shuttle car was provided by Pondok Sebatu Villa. The only things I find not so good, the food (fried rice/noodles, a bit too salty) and flies at the restaurants (the staff said it was because of the rain and fruit season, they had candles to keep the flies away).
