The Samara was an amazing place to stay while in Bali. Rusma made our experience even better by taking care of all our needs. Breakfasts were delicious. The suites and Villa were beautiful. The beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. We greatly appreciated the airport pick up and scooter rides to the main street. Swimming in the Samara pools while taking in the surrouning beauty of their grounds and rice fields made our stay that much more enjoyable. We can not express how much better they made our holiday in paradise, and we highly recommend the Samara to everyone visiting Ubud, Bali.

The Samara is one of the most beautiful places that I have stayed. The views of the rice fields are so amazing and the pool is so clean and lovely. The staff are just beautiful, so accommodating, so helpful and so friendly! It’s about a 10min walk to get there from the Main Street but if you need the staff can drop you off and pick you up from the scooters. The room is cleaned daily, the breakfast is included and there is afternoon tea provided between 4-5pm. I will be looking forward to staying here again one day.

The position itself was beautiful, away from the busy Main Street. The staff were very accommodating in ferrying us to and from the Main Street on bikes. The villa was lovely but basic in amenities and a bit worn, ie mould on pool edges and borer eaten furniture. The two bedroom villa has an external staircase to upstairs which was tricky in the rain. We were disappointed that there was no restaurant or bar as advertised as were far from restaurants and they only offered Italian food delivery. Lovely position but not worth the $300 a night cost for these oversights.

ウブドの中心からかなり奥まったところにあり、道は徒歩かバイクでなければ通ることが出来ないところです。事前に口コミでチェックしましたが王宮まで徒歩7-8分どころの距離では無くまた途中高低差がかなりあります。 でも、バイクで送迎をしていただけることを利用すれば王宮近くまで3-4分ほどで着きます。 周辺は田んぼでとても静か、プールは小さいけどどの部屋からも近くて便利、朝食も美味しく頂きました。 このホテルのような仕様の所には以前何度も泊まったことが有り、バリ島仕様なのかと思え特別なところは無いと思いますが、ウブドの田んぼの雰囲気と静けさを味わいたい方、バイクの後ろに乗ることに抵抗が無い方にはお薦めします。

Excelente ambiente a un precio bajo.

El hotel es muy tranquilo, paisajes verdes, el personal muy servicial, su atención es increíble, , buenos desayunos, limpio, te ayudan alquilar la moto la cual es muy necesaria para tu desplazamiento , así que vía WhatsApp mejor avisar que tengan lista tu moto al llegar, porque esta muy bien ubicado, pero hay que caminar y hay una subida, por eso es mejor tener la moto y así estas super cerca del Palacio y sector comercial, ellos te recogen en un parqueadero que te envían la ubicación y suben tus maletas, también te las bajan, ya que donde esta el hotel solo puedes subir en Moto o caminando , los carros no pueden llegar, pero así hay muchos sectores en Ubud.
