Villa Jempana Kintamani and Hot Spring

Lovely and caring staff, nice pool and a large hot water spring pool. Great views on the lake. Thank you so much Ketut for our hike on the Gunung Batur, you are a marvellous guide. And our trip to our next destination was also perfect arranged by you.

Very friendly staff

The driveway into the property was hard on the vehicle as it was in poor condition. The food was average. The staff were hard to find and non responsive at time. The location was lovely. The hot thermal pool was a treat, but needed to be filled earlier in the morning so you could use it more often.

La piscine d eau chaude naturelle le soir

Comme tout le monde les mouches agaçante la journée

The view was beautiful, over looking the lake with Mt Abang in the background. The room was comfortable, large with tv, kettle, fridge. The pool was nice, although cold but we're in Bali, right. There was also a large hot spa. Service was typical Balinese, always friendly and helpful. I booked Mt Batur climb there and ended up with a private guide/driver.

I thought the location was a little away from things like walkable distance restaurants and you can't get a Grab there. The villa had dinner facilities though, the flies were a bit of a nuisance but it is situated near farming. Also the property is down a really small, unnamed street, so a sign at the road may help.

L’accueil et la gentillesse de toute l’équipe 🙏

Прекрасная вилла, чудесное озеро, коасивейший вид с вулкана.

Очень много мух.

De kamer was goed en ruim. Het zag er schoon en netjes uit. Personeel was vriendelijk. Ook een goede locatie om te starten aan je klim naar de top van de Mount Batur.

Er moest nog wel een extra bed geplaatst worden, wat wel vooraf aan ons bevestigd was. Dit werd na hier melding van te hebben gemaakt wel meteen geregeld d.m.v. een dik matras op de vloer met een dekentje. Een dekbed had beter geweest, maar we sliepen er maar kort i.v.m. de beklimming van de Mount Batur bij zonsopkomst dus hebben we dat zo gelaten. Wat wel tegen viel is het eten. Zowel het avondeten als ontbijt. Het duurde lang voordat het klaar was, maar het was echt niet lekker helaas. Je kunt beter naar Pelokan Street gaan voor aankomst bij deze accommodatie en daar lekker eten.

Heel nette accomodatie met erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Het eten wat gemaakt wordt is ook dikke prima! De hotspring bij het hotel is geweldig! 😃 Wat ook wel een erg bijzonder uitje was, is een bezoek aan de begraafplaats aan de overkant van het meer, waarin de lichamen in de openlucht ontbinden...

De overlast van vliegen is in dit gebied enorm. Reden is de landbouw (uien teelt) en het gebruik van natuurlijke mest. Buiten eten is eigenlijk geen optie, gelukkig verdwijnen de vliegen weer na zonsondergang en kun je dan nog even lekker buiten zitten. Verder ligt de locatie echt een beetje afgelegen, met weinig faciliteiten in de buurt. Voor een trip naar de Mount batur is het echter een prima uitvalsbasis, vanuit het hotel regelt men de excursies ook.

De warmwater bron waarmee ze twee keer per dag een zwembad vullen!

De vliegen! Echt heel irritant

A lot of insects in the air.

Beautiful location & Great value for the price!

Not much to do in the area. The AC did not work well in the rooms. My villa did not come with shampoo or soap.

La propreté et la beauté du lieu. Personnel très gentil et enclin à aider

Tolle Lage, mit toller Aussicht. Hilfsbereites Personal.

Vielleicht kann man generell mehr Küchenequipment haben, aber auf Nachfrage haben wir alles bekommen, was wir brauchten.

Remarque à l hôte non prise en compte Emplacement très isolé alentour sale Chemin accès très médiocre Eau chaude non disponible Chambre et salle de bain sale pas propre

Близко до точки подъема. Минут 15 на трансфере и тропа. Красивый бассейн на территории. Хорошие номера

There is a beautiful view of the lake and the personnel were very friendly.

Facilities need some repairs and renovation, meals (incl. breakfast) are quite small and basic (compared to price of accommodation). The road to the hotel for the last 400m is very bad, but locals reach it by car. There are a lot of flies in the village (not only in the hotel), so you better eat breakfast in a room. But this shouldn't be the reason you would miss the vulcanob trekking. In general the hotel is nice, just for the price we paid we expected more.

De vriendelijke bediening

De vliegen maar daar kunnen zij niets aan doen!

Big clean room, very nice staff

The flies outside

Все было отлично! Заселение ровно в 2 часа дня! Было очень чисто! Персонал максимально старался помочь во всем! Супер вид!

La vue lac.

Accueil inexistant à l'arrivée, impression d'un hôtel fantôme laissé à l'abandon. Hôtel très vétuste : piscine non entretenue, lampe décrochée dans la piscine, bonde de douche cassée et rouillée. Salle de bain sale et pleine de calcaire + wc qui fuit, chaise cassée, housse de canapé déchirée. On a été très déçus de cette expérience et ne conseillons pas du tout cet hôtel. Pour le même prix, nous avons trouvé beaucoup mieux à Amed. C'est très dommage car je pense que cet hôtel devait être mieux avant mais est laissé complètement à l'abandon.

Sunrise and sunset view of Mount & Lake Batur from the balcony were awesome! Located in quiet place, the villa has a complete set amenities - more than I expected; from toothbrush, shower gel, shampoo, set of towels, tea and coffee, water cooker, a small fridge, slippers even a drying rack. The villa has beautiful and really spacious bedrooms, couches, smart tv, strong wifi, dining table and the most important: everywhere is clean. They also provided room services with foods delivered from their own restaurant.

The road to reach the villa location from main road is rough and narrow, really need a skilfull and experienced driver in Bali to drive a car and park in front of the villa.

Great stay here and close to the volcano, so did a great hike with guide Katut. Not an early start compared to the hikers that come from e.g. Ubud. Komang and Madie at reception were very helpful and nice and took me on complimentary rides to the temple and the hot springs. I had a great time!

N/a

Breathtaking views, kind staff. Base location for mount batur trekking.

The villa can not control it but the flies are really preventing from doin anything outside of the room. Due to the onion farms there are billions of flies. Further no restaurants or much to do around the place. Also I had no hot water.

Rustige locatie met mooi uitzicht. Grote kamer. Ligging perfect voor de hike op Mount Batur en werd georganiseerd door accommodatie zelf

De vele vliegen. We wisten het van tevoren maar viel toch tegen. En er is niets rondom de accommodatie. Je zit echt in the middle of nowhere

The view was unbelievable, like sitting in a postcard. Staff very helpful and booked jeep tours.

Whilst I accept that due to the location there would be flies, we were unable to eat outside during the day as there were so many. There is absolutely nothing that could be done its nature. There is also not really anywhere to wander to. No hot water. Whilst we received a warning about all of the above, it only came after we had booked and paid.

Der Ausblick war schön und die Nähe zum Mount Batur.

Die Mitarbeiter konnten teilweise kein Englisch und wirkten unbeholfen. Das Frühstück war sehr dürftig und nicht appetitlich. Die Zimmer sind ungepflegt, dreckig, hellhörig. Wir hatten Schimmel im Bad. Wir wussten, dass es viele Fliegen geben wird, aber diese Anzahl war wirklich erschreckend und ungenießbar. Auch in der Küche waren überall Schwärme.

The views of the lake & mountain were seriously beautiful! Unfortunately the property is not ‘on the lake’ like I thought it was, Construction of another villa is below, along with a lot of pipes, rubble and garbage which detracted from the view.

The photos of the property are old - like from when it just opened. Our room was really run down and you could see it has not been maintained. Paint was peeling off the walls, the drain was blocked & it was not by the shower, it was by the toilet, so the whole bathroom would fill up with water every time we showered. The food options were also average. Most of the stuff was fried, but I did have a very yummy salad! The flies are also an issue though and we couldn’t even sit outside unless we would have hoards of flies sitting on us - this is a Kintamani issue though due to the organic fertilizer used for farming.

A nice place right on the lake. Great views and close to the hot springs with a free shuttle whenever you wanted to go.

It is a fairly remote location and not much in the way of restaurants and shops nearby. The shower in my room didn't have hot water and the shower in my son's room seemed to flood the bathroom.

L’extérieur est joliment entretenu, vue superbe sur le lac Batur et cuisine délicieuse.

Les utilitaires sont un peu défaillants et accès à l’hôtel assez étroit. Le personnel est aimable mais ne parle pas très bien l’anglais.

Le lieu est très beau, la vue avec la piscine a débordement est incroyable Petits déjeuner simples mais efficaces

La route pour y accéder est sportive ! Il faut absolument leur demander de venir vous chercher pour les 500 derniers mètres pour éviter d'abîmer la voiture du chauffeur / taxi Effectivement il y a des mouches, à prendre en compte si on supporte pas une bestiole mais ça n'est pas non plus hyper handicapant pour un court séjour Eau chaude... compliqué ... c'est plutôt tiède et très faible débit.

Personnel très accueillant

L’endroit est beau et calme en plus d’être idéalement placé pour l’excursion au Mont Batur.

Rien n’est accessible à pied - pas grand chose à faire.

Personeel en de locatie voor beklimmen van mount batur

De vliegen overal echt ongelofelijk , de villa kan er niks aan doen maar buiten zitten buiten met zwembad om is onmogelijk

Emplacement au calme

Mooie ruime kamers! En een prachtig uitzicht. We hadden het alleen geboekt omdat we de Mount Batur wilden beklimmen. Vanuit het hotel ook de hike geboekt, en zeker een aanrader. We hadden een leuke gids.

Er waren inderdaad wel veel vliegen, maar dit wisten we van tevoren. Ook weinig te doen in de buurt van het hotel, maar ook dit wisten we.

Great spacious room with views overlooking the lake. The guy on reception was really helpful offering to drop us at the canoeing place south of the lake and then collected us to take us to the hot springs, and then collected us again to return us to the hotel. The pool looked nice but was too cold to go swimming and too many flies.

I had read in the reviews about the number of flies but really wasn’t prepared for the sheer amount of them at the property and in the area. This made eating any food including breakfast extremely difficult and not relaxing. Lots of flies enter the room upon entering but with some room spray this was easily fixed. However the number of bodies that remain around the bed throughout our stay wasn’t appealing! Food is very basic but the staff are helpful. There’s nowhere to walk to around the hotel, it is literally in the middle of nowhere. The access road to the hotel is really bad, you need a 4x4 to not damage your car!

The location of the Villa is excellent. Serene Mountain and Lake Views. Pool is also clean. Food is cheap and tasty.

Rooms are bit old, esp bathrooms. There are lot of house flies during our visit which made very uncomfortable.

Good to relax. Nice views from the rooms and very friendly staff. They can organise tours to see the sunset.

The 200 meters road, from the main road, it’s an adventure to drive by bike!

Stunning views, lovely staff and super quiet.

It has to be mentioned that the surrounding farms use a fertiliser that attracts ALOT of flies. Be prepared to be swarmed when you are outside

Great place to stay and connect with Nature and get to know around Batur Lake. 1 or 2 nights recommended. They have a great breakfast and decent lunch or dinner. Personal is really helpful. Highly recommended to book the Jeep or the Hike to the Volcano.

To the owner, you need to sort out the house flies issue. A closed space to eat during the day is a must. I know is not the hotel s fault but is really annoying.

The view is spectacular and food is amazing.

Unfortunately is really hard to enjoy the hotel due to the flies.

Friendly staff, always ready to help

The property is very aesthetic, the soft bed was extremely comfortable. Room service ordering by WhatsApp was very convenient. Staff were friendly.

The power went out in our room multiple times. The hot water worked for only two minutes at a time. Yes the staff offered to fix it, but it seems that it was reliably faulty. A permanent fix is needed. The whole town is plagued by flies. Not the hotel’s fault, but it left us unable to dine outside or spend time in the pool.

The swimming pool and the views are just amazing. With good weather it's the ideal place for relax. The staff are really nice and helpful.

When it rains, there's not much to do outside of the hotel. The maintanance of the outside is great, but inside the rooms not much

Beautiful villa. Stunning view. Accommodating staff. Beds very comfortable

Due to farming flys are out of control but this can't be helped

The staff Komang was really helpful and friendly . Both the days for dinner service as well he was always attentive.

Bathroom mirror was broken . And pipe leakage

Friendly staff

Narrow streets, too far inland

Room was lovely. Beds were comfortable. Chosen for proximity to mt Batur. Staff were very easy to get hold of & responive

The pool wasn’t clean on our arrival. The flys were quite difficult… but we were warned about this.

Swimming pool , garden

Flies, quite dirty, smell in bathroom

Everything

Too many flies,perhaps something could be done about it.

Scenery, wonderful balcony view of Lake Batur

Road leading into the property was really narrow. Alittle too many insects (which was understandable and expected), and it wasn't that bad.

The pool view was amazing. The friendly and helpful staff. Ketut was an absolute superstar. Definitely coming back to hike with Ketut

Had good stay and highly recommended. Friendly staff, good service and food is nice too.. The view of Mount Batur is stunning. The hotel compound is good for photography and the photos turned out very well.. Good place for chilling and relaxing with family.

The spacious room, tastefully done, the huge balcony overlooking the lake, the ever so polite and helpful staff. Beautiful landscapes of the property. Sumptuous breakfast.

Nothing

The view over the lake and the mountains changed through the day. It was a great place to sit and relax

The road getting there. It’s off the main road down a dirt track and at some points it feels like you should really be 4WDing. Also if you are mobility challenged there are quite a few stairs.

Very good location, very nice villa, very kind personnel

Very friendly, attentive staff and a great view. The room was also spacious and clean.

The biggest problem is that there are no restaurants within 45 minutes drive and unfortunately the food at this hotel is very poor and so, we were left very hungry and with no choice but to leave early. This is a shame as it’s a beautiful location and the staff/accommodation were very nice. There is also very little to do in the area once you’ve done the volcano activities - wouldn’t stay more than 1 night. Would also note there are many, many flies which are annoying.

Overall location, villa space

Bathroom exhaust was non functional, bathroom door handle was broken

The villa was really nice

The villa is located around the lake and everywhere in the villa are flies. There were totally annoying. The location is a little bit disappointed because there were no restaurants around

Everything

Overall environment.

Difficult find and 1 of the room water heater got issue.

Spacious villa with a nice view. Restaurant provides not many options, but delicious and reasonably priced. Staff was respectful and helpful. Evenings were a bit chill, yet warm inside the villa.

Lot's of flies, so it so hard to enjoy a meal outside the villa. But we were warned what bugs are inevitable as this is agricultural area. The road to the villa is very narrow and rough, can be hard to get out on a scooter.

Beautiful view and really tranquil place, lovely as a getaway and if you want to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city. The rooms are simple but clean, and the staff are friendly and accommodating.

The entry into the property is a winding and steep mud path, where bigger vehicles might get stuck. Consider taking up the property's offer to meet you at the main road instead, as our minibus got stuck on the way out. The other minor thing that bothered us were the large amount of flies.

The hotel is very beautiful and comfortable, quite small and with a beautiful pool. The staff is super friendly and we loved that we could book the night hike to Mt Batur with them (super efficient, good price and wonderful experience!). Loved the breakfast delivered to the room and the flexibility of the staff. We ate both nights in the hotel restaurant and were super happy with the quality (as well as the price level). Small surprises such as the free pool towels were really dding to the experience for us. Special thanks to Yasa (/Malex) in the staff who helped us a lot with our queries.

Well, we knew it ahead and the staff apologized upon arrival but yes, this is an agricultural area so there will be some insects and flies around. this is of course not the hotel's fault and will be present anywhere in the area. However, it didn't impact us that much but travelers should be aware. The villas are a bit off the main road so a little bit tricky to get there (esp. if you have your own vehicle), however the hotel staff offers pickup from the main road and the bonus of it all is the beautiful view over the lake.

Stunning views of the lake and mountains, very well maintained and excellent service from the staff

Superb Views

A little hard to find

Beautiful views with spacious accommodation. Ever attentive staff who went out of their way to make our stay memorable.

Unfortunately the flies are out of control 😢

Super quiet, clean rooms, soft comfy beds, spacious bathrooms and a nice pool with mountain views. Staff arranged for a birthday decoration for my girlfriend in the room plus floating breakfast next morning.

As mentioned in the description the last 200meters on the road are rocky and bumpy. Arrived there by bike without problems though. Many flies in the outside areas, but not much you can do about it, as its like that all over Kintamani.
