Casa de familia Payogan auténtico Bali

Superfijn verblijf bij een hartelijke familie. Ketut beantwoordt al je vragen en hij regelt alles wat je wilt zonder zich op te dringen. Zeer goede keuken ook én achterin zijn plot heeft een een ruimte waar heel goede massages worden gegeven, zowel binnen a buiten (op de bovenste verdieping vanwaar je een geweldig uitzicht hebt op begroeiing/tropische bomen). De kamer is niet per se luxe maar zeer schoon, groot en prettig in gebruik, met buiten een lekker terras waar je in de avond kunt zitten.

Staying at Ketut's place was the most authentic experience my friend and I had in Bali! Our room (Payogan homestay downstairs) was spacious, comfortable, and beautifully decorated, in the middle of the most wonderful garden.
Ketut is an amazing host! He was very welcoming and helpful. Apart from being our host he was also our driver and guide for two days, which was a lot of fun. After talking about what we would like to visit and what we wanted to experience in Bali, he not only drove us to all the places we wanted to see, but also introduced us to some hidden gems, explaining to us a lot about Bali culture. He also helped us book other experiences (e.g., an authentic Balinese cooking class, or transportation and tickets to the Gili islands etc.) at a discounted price. He took care of us and made us feel we had a friend in case we needed anything during the rest of our trip in Indonesia.
There is also a restaurant located in the homestay, with home cooked style Indonesian food, which is a don't miss! We had breakfast and dinner there, and each dish we tried was more delicious than the next.
All in all, you can tell that this establishment is being run with the utmost care, passion, and love! Thank you, Ketut, for making our stay in Ubud extra special! If we ever go back to Bali, we will definitely stay at Ketut's place!

Ketut Mendra's homestay was the best choice we could have made for our 2 months stay at Bali. Ketut is very hospitable and was not only our host but also our driver and guide. He asked us to describe our interests and based on them suggested where to go for a tour of for a walk in the neighbourhood of attend a hindu ceremony. He explained a lot about Bali culture and was interested in ours. The village Payogan is near enough to Ubud to go there on foot (or taxi) but far enough to be much quieter and more traditional than Ubud. In Payogan and on Ketut's compound we experienced 'authentic' Bali daily life. We loved it!

From start to finish (and even further) everything about our stay with Ketut was splendid. We were welcomed upon our arrival, assisted to our spacious and airy room, given help and assistance in our plans and included in the local neighborhood's ceremony and traditions. Our stay was so very much more than a place to sleep and eat. We felt welcome and recognized at every turn. We left with regrets that we could not stay longer and look forward to coming back soon. The meals were fantastic. As a matter of fact, we were able to come back the night after we checked out (leaving our hotel) so we could have one more meal and enjoy the friendship of Ketut and his family.

Ketut is an excellent host. From the first day he was very helpful, he told us all the information we needed to move and meet around Ubud. His house is very authentic and has a little restaurant with delicious local dishes. His family will let you feel like home. Also he has a his little family temple and it was amazing to walk around his garden. He will also help you to move around ubud and get the best prices. I was there with my anak 7y (daughter in balinese) and my baby 4months. Thank you Ketut we really enjoy our time with you.
