The staff was very friendly and helpful. Kids loved the pool. Balcony was nice, however the view is ruined by the on-going construction nearby. Good location - restaurants, bars and stores all within walking distance.

We had a fantastic stay at Swahita! The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel truly welcomed from the moment we arrived. Their hospitality alone would keep us coming back. The only small suggestion I have is to improve the coffee at breakfast by adding a filter. Other than that, a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend staying here mainly because of the exceptional staff and great location. Walkable to a lot of attractions and restaurants.

The friendliest, kindest, helpful staff. Perfect location to immerse yourself in Ubud, waking distance to markets, restaurants, temples, whatever you need or might want to explore while the rooms are located next to the jungle. Being close to the jungle was a favorite of mine, having breakfast each morning with a beautiful jungle view, butterflies, birds, dragonflies. Excellent Bali breakfast options too! I would stay here again!

This was a hidden gem close to the action and main area of Ubud but secluded and quiet. The pool was amazing. The breakfast simple yet fresh and yummo. The staff were beautiful especially Agus he was very helpful, attentive and up for a conversation and a laugh. We loved the Swahita and will stay again in the future.

Incredible staff, crumbling rooms

The staff is amazing and they take care of you so well but the rooms (or at least the one I stayed in) are falling apart. There was a huge hole in my bathroom wall that made me nervous about critters and a lot of the finishes were rusted and old. On the upside I felt safe as a female solo traveler. It’s so incredibly close to everything while still being tucked away from all the Ubud city center noise

We had a great time staying here! The staff learned our names and asked us how we were doing and were always very helpful. There are several breakfast options and they were all good. We had a room with a balcony and the view was amazing! It is generally very quiet there-but it is a little further from the buzz of the city. It was easy to rent a motorbike and book the shuttle to and from the airport. The pool was very nice. We will stay here again if ever in Ubud in the future.

I only stayed for one night but it was such a good experience! I arrived after midnight and staff was outside waiting for my arrival. The room and bathroom was big and included little nice amenities. I arrived to a yummy welcome drink and woke up to a delicious breakfast. The location was convenient and walkable to the Saraswati temple which was on my to do list. Highly recommend.
