    The location is just perfect, I never slept so close to the ocean, you’ll fall asleep with the sound of waves. The owner is also exceptional, he offered to pick me up in Ubud and also take me to Candidasa and bought a ticket to Nusa Penida for me: an angel ❤️

    Having my own terrace right on the beach made it memorable. After staying in some pretty basic accomodation, the comfort and facilities provided, such as fridge and aircon, felt like luxury. Putu doesn’t live on site but was readily available through WhatsApp and spoke excellent English. He is wanting to make your stay a good one. The shower was hot. I didn’t have issues re mozzies but a net and powered insect dispenser was appreciated.

    It would be good if water in a large bottle was available for free use by the two units to stop the accumulation of plastic bottles.

    It is a slice of heaven. There is nothing between you and the water except fishing boats and sand. Location is in the centre of town with numerous restaurants everywhere. Spotless accommodation, very comfortable bed and great water pressure. You have a padlock and chain which makes it feel very secure when you leave. If you hire a scooter you can park it right out front of the property.

    Nothing to not like.

    The owner picked us up from our last accommodation, only 5 mins away, but too far with luggage and Bali heat. He was very kind. The location was right on the beach, it wasn't too private because of its location !. Very central, supermarket and restaurants very close. The room was very well appointed. Air con, fridge, kettle with tea and coffee , though no milk. Bed was comfy and bathroom was good - hot water no problem.

    Very public, with people and scooters using path in front of the verandah.

    Superb location on the beachfront, close to main street for food and transport, snorkelling and boats at the doorstep, sunsets and sunrises

    Having to leave, alot more peaceful than southern Bali and Gili Trawagan

    Great location right on the beach and easy access to great bars, Warung’s, cafes. Scooter hire around the corner. Diving and fishing close by. Good central point to access other attractions in Amed. Putu is an excellent host and offers transfers to his guests.

    The location of this place is amazing - a few steps away from the beach, beautiful view from the room, loved opening the curtains in the morning and seeing the water and boats! The room was clean and spacious and I enjoyed the chairs and table on the patio. It is a local area which I really liked, various restaurants and shops in the area. I really enjoyed my stay and the place is amazing value for money!

    The room needs better lighting, there was only a lamp. I did not realise the bathroom had an open ceiling, and there were insects both in the bathroom and bedroom. Bring earplugs with you, it gets noisy! But overall it was a lovely experience and I would recommend staying here!

    Beach front location, close to shops

    -Room not nice as seen in the photos -Walls cracked, paint chipping -desks were broken -toilet not cleaned -sink not cleaned -mould in bathroom -no hand soap given -bin too small -not enough toilet paper given, owner replaced with 1/2 roll of used wet toilet paper -shower is open roof, bathroom not secure, bathroom lock broken -room not secure, front door lock broken, expecting to be secured through chain and padlock -cupboard locks broken -floor dirty -bedsheets and mosquito net stained -only 1 sheet given, no blanket -insufficient lighting inside and outside room -big glass window, locals and tourists walk past and stare in on you -power sockets broken - have to choose between lighting and charging phone near bed -safety huge concern, pitch black outside and only accessed via dark back alley to beach, only 2 rooms at this property. -facilities listed are a lie and not true -roosters crow all night long, waking you up, children and motorbikes also loud outside -Putu, the host, may seem like a nice guy, but he is a total creep. He thinks it is okay to rock up at the property and enter any time he pleases, rocking up unannounced at 8:45pm one night while I was in the shower and waiting out the front for me to open the door for him to give me more toilet paper. Property isolated and pitch black outside, already scared for my safety. I did not want to open the door. Putu also thinks it is okay to enter the property without telling you, I caught him entering the room one day without telling me and he seemed to think this was okay. I left early before the last night because of how disgusting the property was and how creepy Putu was, and I was much happier after I left. Putu is creepy towards solo female travellers. DO NOT BOOK HERE.

    Property response:

    Thanks for the reviews🙏 But not everything you say is true, for example: I brought you toilet paper at 8.45pm because you chatted with me via WA and said the toilet paper had run out, and I only delivered it till to the front of the room terrace. And then you opened the door and i gave you a full toilet paper then i left ( and you Said Thank you about that).and in the next day at 11 am I came into your room and you caught me because you chatted me via WA when you say you are going diving and Said the bathroom sink tap wasnt working, then I checked it but the sink tap was fine, and then I was surprised, suddenly you came back from diving and i Said i only checked the sink tap and it was fine.and I didnt understand then you got angry, and you decided to move to another hotel, and pay the room only for 2 night instead 3 night. I’m sorry that you dont like the local community situation in my place🙏

    If you are looking for a quiet place, at three steps from the Ocean, you must book here! Putu Is very welcoming and kind. Amed Is famous for snorkeling and diving and you can admire corals and tropical fishes very close to the bay! (And if you are lucky, u can see turtles 🐢) I truly recommend Tambun Sari Beach Homestay if you want to live free and barefoot 😁

    Putu is a wonderful host. The room couldn’t be any closer to the sea, which is quite an experience in the rainy season. You can walk anywhere to nice restaurants and shops and a dip in the sea is right at the doorstep.

    It’s a little small to stay longer with little storage space, and it’s quite damp being so close by the sea. Bring ear plugs if you are sensitive to noise.

    Great location right on the beach! Step outside your front door and there you are. You will however get the authentic experience with barking dogs and roosters during the day, plus the motor from the winch to pull the boats in. But I wasn’t too bothered by any of that, it wasn’t constant and made me feel privileged to enjoy local life up close. I just got a chuckle out of it all. Overall the room is basic, but comfortable. It was really nice to be able to sit on the day bed out front and just relax and watch the world go by. Putu (owner) is so nice and we had some great conversations, I learnt a lot! He got in touch to see if I had transport to Amed and offered a great price to pick me up in Sidemen and take me via Tirta Gangga. He also got a friend and I back down to Sanur via Taman Ujung for a good price, considering the length of the time of the journey.

    Needs a tap out front to be able to wash sand off from the beach before coming onto the terrace and inside, I had sand everywhere. Paint and plaster coming away from the walls, it could do with a bit of a refresh.

    I love this room on the beach. Just you and the sea. And cute roosters that I enjoyed watching. Beach friends :) The room is clean, the bed is comfortable and Putu is very nice and ready to help with everything. I definitely recommend it.
