Location not so good if you want to be next to the beach. About a 20mins walk had to cross the busy main road.

Room was lovely, clean, comfortable, good aircon, beautiful garden, relaxing pool and atmosphere. Lovely breakfast. Massage available. Staff, helpful, friendly. Daily water provided.

Everything was amazing! The only thing was when ordering food I had to go find a staff member somewhere. Not a big deal at all but worth mentioning.

The only negative was our bed. It creaked loudly if you moved in bed. The location isn’t in a tourist area, more of a local area. There’s plenty of eateries in walking distance and it’s a very cheap and quick taxi ride to the tourist strip so it didn’t bother us. We preferred it due to the serenity

We loved the spacious room,the beautiful gardens and the serenity The staff were exceptional - so friendly and helpful

Location too far from everything. TV not up-to-date. Channels extremely limited. Staff absence and food service availability only at certain time of day.

It is a quaint, lovely boutique hotel. Too bad the location is too far from everything. It is very quiet which I like, and the garden is beautiful. The staff very friendly and eager to help, but not everyone speaks English, nor are they there 24/7.

Nothing.

Pondok Ayu and it's staff are the reason why this is our 11th trip to Bali. Exceeded all our expectations. The wonderful; wonderful staff that are super friendly; well trained was an experience not to forget. Everything well maintained, food served at the restaurant part delicious and cheap. Breakfasts more than sufficient. Our well equipped kitchen was never used. Property location good. 15 minutes walk to beach. Gardens extremely well maintained. 10/10 on all. Could suggest to owners larger TV in bedrooms. Also - few smaller tables in "restaurant" area rather than one large table? Overall- fantastic experience- certainly deserves more than 3 stars. Would most certainly visit again in future. Thanks again to wonderful friendly staff.

This place was so lovely! It is located in a quiet street, just 15mins away from plenty of shops and restaurants. It was beautiful overall. The rooms are very spacious, the bed was comfy & the bathroom was nice. The room was also very clean. The people running the place were very helpful & kind. The pool was nice too. Definitely a great place to stay in Sanur!

Location needed taxi to go anywhere as busy road needed to be crossed. No real restaurant on site. A meal could be ordered from a limited menu which was always good but finished at 7.30pm.

Everything. Great hosts, room had everything and really clean. Breakfast very good. Fantastic swimming pool and small courtyard garden. Host happy to order taxis which were extremely cheap.

It wasn’t an easy walk to the beach and there was a big road to cross on the way.

It was so peaceful away from all street noice The staff were so friendly, could communicate well and served a very good breakfast. We took a Grab Taxi from there to the beach a short distance and a couple of $S only

Booking .com claim 800 metres to beach, as the crow flies this may be true. It takes over 20 minutes and you have to cross over an extremely busy road. For us the beds and pillows were to hard.

The small boutique hotel is beautiful. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfasts delicious.

Having to take our life in our hands crossing a major road to get to the beach & restaurants.

The staff, the spacious room/s and the garden. A little corner of tranqillity in Sanur.

Not one thing.. just perfect

Have stayed here many many times over the years. It’s very comfortable, spotless and lovely pool and garden. Staff are just diamonds and it’s great to see familiar faces every year. Good breakfast especially they don’t have a restaurant. I have spent 3 Nypei with them and again they all look after us so well. Fridges in rooms and endless bottled water. And must not forget Bella the cat who is usually to be found asleep on a chair beside me at breakfast.

We didn't know that payment for the room wasn't made yet. So far, whenever we book through booking.com, our rooms were prepaid before we go. We were only informed the evening before we left, leaving us no time to arrange for other methods of payment, especially as there was a surcharge of 3% when we paid by credit card. This could have been avoided if we were informed of the need to pay earlier, giving us time to prepare cash.

Good location, can easily walk out to Sindhu Night market and other eateries nearby. Pondok Ayu is nice & quiet.

Fantastic little hotel, only five rooms and a central courtyard area with the pool so you feel like you're in a very private space. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and also make a delicious breakfast each morning. The rooms are spacious, clean and quiet so we had a lovely sleep each day. Much needed after a couple of weeks in Java! Location is fine, I don't understand the people who complain... the beach is 10 mins walk away, yes there's a busy road but you can just cross it normally. Overall 10/10 would only come back here if we return to Bali.

The hotel met our expectations. Beautiful territory with a wonderful garden, calm, relaxing atmosphere, very clean pool, comfortable and bright rooms. There are only 5 rooms in the facility, but there were practically no neighbors in sight. The room has a wonderful kitchen, equipped with everything you need. Drinking water in large bottles is always available. The staff carefully monitors the order and cleanliness in the rooms and throughout the territory. We extended our stay and always remember with gratitude Pjndok Ayu, his lovely hostess, caring and smiling Kadek and excellent staff.

I think for the property is great for its price

I liked everything: the place, owners (Sari is so friendly and helpful!), good location: not far to the centre and, at the same time, lots of supermarkets and places for kids around. Everything is clean, the swimming pool is just perfect if you have a kid.
