Reviews of Ariel Bungalow Tetebatu

It is a wonderful place, we enjoyed staying with Anyas friendly and welcoming family. The room is very clean, has comfortable beds, has everthing you need. The food was very good. We also had an interesting trip with Anya to get to know the area: learnt a lot about the ricefields, spices, society, visited the waterfalls and monkey forrest. We even saw some Baby monkeys. It was a perfect stay and we would definetily come back.

I really enjoyed my stay at Ariel Bungalow which is situated in a beautiful location among the rice fields and palm trees. It's possible to observe black monkeys from the dining area, but it's well worth spending a few hours on a leisurely hike to visit the monkey forest, waterfalls and rice fields which are conveniently located nearby Anya and his family are extremely friendly and helpful and the food is excellent.There really is nothing to dislike!

We had an amazing stay at Ariel. The room was comfortable and very clean. The owner was very nice, a great view on the rice field also, good food, why would you be asking for more ? Thank you so much 🙏

- amazing hospitality - cute garden - small but clean and nice room - warm shower - great views - nice restaurant with good food - lovely breakfast included

Beautiful location, and extremely clean bungalow set in the wonderful Tetebatu. We had the best night's sleep there. Extremely peaceful with all the wildlife in the background. There are of course the mosques, but I actually really enjoyed hearing the call to prayer. Anya was really friendly, and welcoming and arranged for a driver to pick us up from Bangsal Harbour which was great, and we also booked a tour with him to walk across to the waterfalls and rice fields, the walk was with his brother, and we were the first to the waterfalls and able to swim, but there was only limited information on the tour. The food cooked by Anya's wife and daughter was fabulous. I think this is a good spot if you are travelling as a couple, or are more than 2 guests. There are 3 bungalows in total.

I think the walking tour could be improved, with a bit more knowledge, so that they can answer questions guests may have, but I appreciated what we did. Also, meeting more of the family would be lovely, to have conversations with, especially the women as well.

Three simple but lovely bungalows on a plot of land with garden, small restaurant, and rice paddy views. The rooms were a a little warm but had all we needed with a mosquito net and fan. Good shower and bathroom. The best part of the stay was the relaxed atmosphere and how helped Anya and his family were with making us feel at home. We did a walking tour with his brother which was a great overview of the area, visiting rice paddies, waterfalls, and the monkey forest to see black monkeys. Highly recommend. We were welcomed with a drink and friendly smile, and the host had some recommendations of what we should do in Tetebatu. We enjoyed spending time in the garden soaking in the views and peaceful atmosphere, especially as we had heavy rain for a whole afternoon. A very cute playful kitten. Walking distance to a few warungs and a scooter rental. Don’t forget to go to the roof in the early morning for views of Rinjani mountain!

Where to start with how much we enjoyed our stay at Ariel Bungalow? We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. It was definitely a highlight of our time in Lombok. Firstly, the Homestay setting is stunning! You have a view of Rinjani mountains and will eat your meals overlooking rice paddy fields. The family that run this place are also so kind and friendly and make the BEST Indonesian food ever. Everything we ate here was delicious and made with love. We sorely miss the food already. The bungalows are comfortable, clean and have everything you need. We loved it so much we stayed an extra night.

Everything was perfect.

Location is beautiful, in the middle of Tetebatu’s rice fields! Anya and his family are very helpful and welcoming and the food served was amazing! Room is simple and modest but great for a couple of nights

The shower is quite weak and could be improved

The place is really nice and clean.I felt like at home..The owner welcome me with a coffee and snacks.The family is so helpful..i really recommended this place for your stay in Tetebatu.

Lovely staff, beautiful location, delicious food, comfy clean rooms, and a cute cat. Couldn't ask for more from a homestay

We only stayed a night and I wish I could have stayed longer. The owner was really friendly and he even helped us organize a tour for a good price. I can only recommend it. The food was amazing too. I miss it. The only thing that is kinda bad is that you can hear the mosque but that is everywhere in Tetebatu, don't forget that you have to consider it. The view was amazing! Coming back one day

Ariel Homestay is sorrounded in vital ricepaddys, vegatable- fields and lush green vegetation. The friendlyness and welcoming of our Host and his family is overwhelming, making our stay a sweet memory! The small, remote village of Tete Batu is clean, vibrant with people bussy working in the fields, welcoming tourists. Our Host brought us on a 4 hour unforgettable hike on small, hidden tracks,,traversing ricepaddys and rainforest, home to endiguas black monkeys, finishing with a cool bath below the waterfall. Breakfest delicuas and healhy, local specialitys provided for lunch!

A fan in the ceiling of our bungalow.

Exceptional. Beautiful cottages, wonderful area….best food in Lombok, specially soup. Owner Ana is very good guide.

Room was clean. There was hot water. The food was AMAZING with great portions. They should run a cooking class!! Close/walking distance to beautiful rice fields and Tetebatu waterfall and are happy to do a tour (but you could do it on your own easily too). Nice quiet village. The friendly owner and his family made the place. So genuinely friendly. Definitely recommend!

WiFi was meh (common in Indonesia). Data on phone works better. In that area a rice terrace view from your bungalow would be amazing. This one didn’t quite have it.

Great location. Lovely family.

I loved my stay at Ariel bungalow, nice room, good food and especially the help I got from Ariel for tours and guides. Really recommended

Beautiful little bungalows.

Anya's hospitality The food was the best we've eaten anywhere in 3 weeks in Indonesia. Our children were made to feel welcome Relaxed atmosphere

We had a really nice and comfortable stay at Ariel. The host is really kind and can tell you all about the area. The food they cook is really amazing also. Just a perfect and affordable stat. Thank you!

Nothing.

A beautiful hut on a home stay. The property is beautiful, the room is kept very clean, the food is delicious, and the host is very accommodating.

Everything was great!

Brilliant Homestay in Tetebatu, Anya (the owner) is so welcoming and friendly. The food onsite is really good, the room is really clean and comfortable. Anya brought us for a tour through the rice fields and provided insights on local life. Highly recommended.
