Nirarta Centre for Living Awareness

Nice place to stay, had issue with no mosquito net and had to move rooms. Not sure why they don't offer yoga now. breakfast is ok (but there are much better in town). coffee very bad instant. Construction at the property and neighboring properties at 7am means I can't recommend it now.

We loved the serenity of this beautiful quiet place,the villas are spaced out in this lush jungle garden giving privacy .this is a spiritual place that supports a reflective inner journey ,the Shala temple is gorgeous ,the owner(Peter) is a gifted. Meditation and movement guide ,very gentle and humble ,and also very skilled and knowledgeable in the spiritual arts .If you are fortunate enough tofind yourself here I would suggest you take the time to participate in the morning meditation ,which the staff also attend ,bringing everyone in to a harmonious balance. We loved the place ,the people,the food…the room…..we did Spend some time at the river ,and sadly like many places in Bali ,it was unfortunately very polluted. With plastic garbage,not the fault of the place of course, A problem that is still needing a solution…..

This place was a complete reset for me - a beautiful oasis in magical Sidemen! If you are looking for a place for healing, I would highly recommend this place!! ❤️ Peter and Dayu are angels and the staff were all incredible ? I will be coming back in the future, for sure! Blessings to the Nirarta family :)

Serene, luxurious, gorgeous surroundings, lovely host, guided meditations with the owner, i felt like a princess.

Passable

Exceptional

It was good, spacious and freshly renovated room with nice furniture, comfortable bed and no any mold there! Which is rare in Bali. Toilet window doesn’t have any glass. Just the hole without any glass and lock. It’s ok if the toilet door has any locker from inside the room and I can lock it during night or when I away. But there is no any lock at the toilet door from inside the room, so I didn’t feel 100% safe there. Also one of the window lock didn’t work and window was permanently open. It was easy to get inside while I’m sleeping or when I’m not in the room. We all know how often some robberies happen in Bali in such a ways and if I would be more anxious person I couldn’t sleep in such a room. Or if I have some much cash or expensive belongings in my luggage. That was not nice thing. And also ceiling was leaking a bit.

Nirarta is located in what is easily the most beautiful area I’ve seen in Bali—just look at the view from the restaurant! This was a quiet and restful stay. The facilities exceeded expectations—very clean, spacious, and well-maintained. If you have the chance, make sure to meet Peter, the founder. Meeting him was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Bali.

This is a beautiful hotel consisting of several houses with a few rooms. Our room was in the top floor of the houses, we had a beautiful view over the rice teracces. The room is very beautiful and the beds are very comfortable. The onsite restaurant serves delicious food and the only thing you can hear is the calming river in the valley below. The bathroom is "open", so you can have mosquittos inside. Not all staff members speak English - we had some problems communicating when no english staff was nearby. For checkin and checkout english staff was available though. The location is a bit "off" but in the area of the other hotels in Sideman. So you are not next to the village but still have lots of services very close by like other restaurants, scooter rental etc.

Very beautiful location and friendly stuff! Was a bit worried about bugs after reading the reviews, but we didn’t have much trouble. Suppose because end of dry season. No AC, take in mind if this is an issue for you!

Superb

The location and the view are very nice No fan in the room, although it is noted in the room description, the staff told us that they did not have one. No AC either. Bathroom that stinks of sewers. Unfriendly staff, and not attentive to customers. A power cut occurred in the evening, none of them came to warn us that the problem came from a repair in progress in the city, no candle or lamp distributed. Mediocre service for the price paid, the room is not worth this price in Bali.

Nirarta is a blissful sanctuary! The setting is absolutely breathtaking, the room itself was Devine - the most comfortable bed I’ve come across in Bali! It was clean, and beautifully furnished. The grounds are impeccable and the river is there if you fancy a quick, refreshing dip. I loved the morning meditations with Peter in the beautiful shala, and there were places and opportunities for your own practice. The location was also great, a short walk from a whole host of delicious food, scooter hire and also information for activities if you were that way inclined. I will be back! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

A really relaxing retreat, with beautiful views from the balcony of our spacious room. We loved the outdoor bathroom. We were invited to join the morning meditation with Peter, which we enjoyed. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the breakfast and the view from the restaurant is awesome. Theres nice restaurants nearby and everything you need. Nothing.

Very good

It was vegan but fit into yoga Main staff didn't speak much English - office manager spoke well but not always available.

The room, ambience, location The staff was giving us the wrong information. When we were checked in, he said the breakfast was free. However, when we checked out, the other staff was charging us for the breakfast and insist that is not included. The price for the breakfast is pricy and not worth it.

Lots of space both within the room as well as the grounds. Views everywhere. Stylish and simple design. Yummy breakfast.

My room was so spacious and quiet. I barely left it for days as I had work to get done. It was surrounded by beautiful gardens and a shaded balcony to sit on to enjoy the day. The room felt very private even though there was someone staying on the level above. It was the perfect place to get away and really relax. The timings for the restaurant opening for breakfast, lunch and dinner were unusual for me so I only ate breakfast there and walked elsewhere for lunch and dinner. Best view from the restaurant though!

The food was incredible. The location fantastic. The staff so helpful and friendly. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Just beautiful
