Ancut Sari's Rice Paddy Paradise: Room 1 w/ AC - Bali Escape!

Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because we’re diving headfirst into the lush, green embrace that is Ancut Sari's Rice Paddy Paradise: Room 1 w/ AC - Bali Escape! I’m talking Bali bliss, baby. And I’m not just throwing around those words lightly. I've got to be honest, my expectations were pretty high for this, but even I was surprised… in a good way.

First things first: Accessibility (and the whole shebang surrounding it - I'm gonna break all the categories to the best of my ability, let's go!). Now, I don't have any physical disabilities myself, so I could only assess based on the information available, but the listing mentions "Facilities for disabled guests." That's a good start, but it would be GREAT if that information was more detailed, like specifically what is accessible (ramps? elevators? grab bars?). It needs more concrete details for people that actually need that information. This is an area for improvement, for sure.

Cleanliness and Safety: Okay, so here we are, folks. Probably the most important thing since… well, since 2020, yeah? I was very impressed. The listing boasted a whole arsenal of precautions. I'm talking: Anti-viral cleaning products, daily disinfection in common areas, individually-wrapped food options, rooms sanitized between stays… the whole shebang. They even have hand sanitizer everywhere. The staff are trained in safety protocols—and it shows. I saw them wiping down everything constantly. It was actually a relief. I really appreciated the room sanitization opt-out available, though I'm guessing most people will appreciate the service. And the Safe dining setup felt really safe. Plus, they offered stuff like cashless payment and contactless check-in/out. It felt like they were genuinely invested in keeping guests safe and healthy. Top marks here.

Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Where do I even begin? The Asian breakfast was incredible. Real, authentic flavours! Seriously, the nasi goreng was a dream. They also have Western breakfast options for those who are less adventurous. (I'm not judging; sometimes you just need your toast.) There's a la carte in the restaurant, a buffet, and even breakfast in room and breakfast takeaway – perfect for a lie-in. They have a poolside bar so you can sip cocktails while enjoying the view. I, personally, took advantage of the happy hour every day. The snack bar was clutch for those mid-afternoon cravings, and I really appreciated the little bottle of water and the coffee/tea in the room. There is also a Vegetarian restaurant available. The food was generally excellent, and the setting was just gorgeous.

Things to Do, Ways to Relax (Oh, MAN!): This is where Ancut Sari really shines. First off, you have to check out the Pool with view. You'll feel like you've stepped into a postcard. Days spent here, just swimming and relaxing: priceless. If you're into being pampered (and who isn't?), they have a spa. I got the massage and, whew, it was pure bliss. Seriously, my knots just… melted away. They also offer body wraps, body scrubs, and a foot bath. And, guess what? They have a gym/fitness room (though I'll be honest, I mostly stuck to the pool and the spa!). They have a sauna, steamroom and this beautiful Pool with a view. Pure. Relaxation.

Services and Conveniences: Okay, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty. They offer air conditioning in public area, a concierge (super helpful), currency exchange (convenient), daily housekeeping (a godsend!), and room service [24-hour]. I definitely used that late at night! They also have laundry service (essential!) and a luggage storage (always a bonus). Wi-Fi [free] is available, and more importantly, Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! You can also use Wi-Fi for special events. They have a Business facilities. Overall, everything was very well maintained.

For the Kids: I don't have any kids, but I saw a lot of families enjoying themselves here. They offer babysitting service and have kids facilities and a kids meal. They are definitely family/child friendly.

Getting Around and Access: They offer airport transfer which is a major plus after a long flight. There's also car park [free of charge] and car park [on-site]. You can arrange for a taxi service.

OKAY, let's dive into the room itself, shall we?

Available in all rooms: You get air conditioning (a must in Bali!), an alarm clock (if you can wake up!), bathrobes (luxury!), bathroom phone (fancy!), blackout curtains (essential for a good night's sleep!), coffee/tea maker (yes!), complimentary tea, desk (if you have to work…), mini bar (temptation!), private bathroom and shower, and slippers (comfy!). They even have free bottled water. Oh, and the Wi-Fi [free] works like a charm.

I had a non-smoking room (thank goodness!). I also had a room with a window that opens (love fresh air!). The soundproofing was great, so I wasn’t bothered by any noise. They were all well-appointed and clean.

The Imperfections

Okay, time for some reality checks. There were a few (minor!) hiccups. The internet, while free, was spotty at times, especially in the lobby. The bathroom was a bit dated but clean and functional. Also, the "proposal spot" wasn't well kept, which kind of sucked the romance out if that's your goal. But honestly, these are minor quibbles in the grand scheme of paradise.

My Quirky Observations and Emotional Reaction:

Walking into my room, I did a little happy dance. It was clean, bright, and the air conditioning was already kicking in. Pure bliss. The view? Oh, the view. Seriously, I think I spent half my trip just staring out the window, soaking it all in. I mean, I was a little bit obsessed with how picture-perfect everything felt. And the staff? So friendly and helpful. They made me feel like I was the only guest there.

Here's the Deal, Folks. The Absolute Best Bit…

I think the single best part of the entire experience was the overall vibe. It's hard to describe, but it's a sense of peace, tranquility, and genuine care. You feel like you're truly away from it all. It’s a great place to disconnect and just… be.

Ancut Sari in the rice fields Room 1 & AC Bali Indonesia

Okay, buckle up, buttercup. This isn't your pristine, Instagram-filtered Bali itinerary. This is the REAL DEAL. This is my Ancut Sari Rice Fields Room 1 & AC Bali, Indonesia, survival guide slash emotional roller coaster. Prepare for some serious (self-deprecating) laughs and maybe a few tears. (Just kidding… mostly.)

Bali Breakdown: An Itinerary of Chaos and Charm

Day 1: Arrival in Paradise (or, "Where's My Luggage?!")

• Morning (6:00 AM - 10:00 AM): Holy moly, it's happening! Finally in Bali! (After what felt like a transatlantic flight comprised of a screaming baby and a guy clipping his toenails). Landed at Denpasar Airport. First impressions? Humid. Like, "I'm instantly glistening" humid. And beautiful, of course. Taxi ride booked. The driver, bless him, seemed more concerned with dodging scooters than actually looking ahead. Thrilling!
• Mid-morning (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Check-in at Ancut Sari. Okay, Room 1… It's… cozy. The AC is a godsend. After an hour, it's blowing out just enough cool air! It's perfect! (My immediate reaction to the rice field view: "Oh. My. God. I might actually cry.")
• Afternoon (12:00 PM - 3:00 PM): Lunch at a warung (local restaurant) near my room. Nasi Goreng. Delish. Trying to navigate the menu with my minimal Indonesian skills felt awkward with a little hesitation about trying new food items. The waiter laughed at my attempts to say "terima kasih". Fair enough, my pronunciation is atrocious. And… where's my luggage?! Apparently, it's still circling the globe. Joy.
• Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Post-lunch nap, hoping to melt away any jet lag. Oh, and the fact that I still haven't got my luggage. Nope. Just woke up even sweatier, more jet-lagged, and with a profound craving for snacks.
• Evening (5:00 PM - Late): Stumbled upon a sunset overlooking the rice paddies. The whole sky was ablaze. Seriously, breathtaking. Maybe the luggage thing doesn't matter so much? Nope, still matters. Dinner at a local restaurant. They have to be some of the friendliest people on earth. I'm already in love with Bali. And I desperately need a toothbrush.

Day 2: Rice Fields and Regrets (and More Rice Fields!)

• Morning (7:00 AM - 10:00 AM): Awoke to the chirping of birds, the gentle sounds of Balinese life, and the nagging feeling that I'm still missing half my wardrobe. Yoga on the hotel veranda (I'm a beginner so I kept wobbling and chuckling the whole time) with a view of the rice fields. It’s genuinely mesmerizing.
• Mid-morning (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Seriously, let’s go back to that rice field. Guided walk of the rice fields with a local farmer. He explained the entire process. I, on the other hand, spent half the time trying not to trip over the pathways. I now have a newfound respect for rice (and rice farmers!).
• Afternoon (12:00 PM - 3:00 PM): Lunch at a small café. I decided to order something spicy, thinking "I can handle it!" Huge mistake. My mouth was on fire. I was practically panting, eyes watering, trying to maintain some semblance of composure in front of a very amused (and totally understanding) waiter. I may have had to chug an entire bottle of water. Did I still enjoy it? Absolutely.
• Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Back to the rice field. I'm not kidding, it's that beautiful. Today's mission: Sit on the edge of the rice field and just… be. No phone. No worries. Just the breeze, the sun, and the vastness of the landscape. It was that quiet time, I could finally understand the concept of "mindfulness." It turns out, it's a lot harder than it looks.
• Evening (5:00 PM - Late): Sunset by the rice field! Seriously, I’m still not tired of this. Dinner at a restaurant by the rice fields. I splurged and ordered a fancy cocktail (that cost the equivalent of a month's grocery bill back home). It was worth it.

Day 3: Culture Shock and Spa Therapy (aka "I Could Get Used to This")

• Morning (8:00 AM - 11:00 AM): Temple visit to a place I can't even pronounce the name of. (It’s gorgeous, anyway.) A cacophony of sights, sounds, and smells (incense, flowers, and the occasional grumpy monkey). I even managed to fumble my way through some basic praying. Or, at least I think that's what I did.
• Afternoon (11:00 AM - 1:00 PM): Spa time! Massage. This is what dreams are made of. I passed out for a bit… in the most blissful way.
• Afternoon (1:00 PM - 3:00 PM): Snack time. This is a must. Fruit at a local market. I was completely overwhelmed by the choice. I ate a mango that was so delicious I almost cried. Seriously, it was a spiritual experience.
• Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Exploring the village. Getting lost down small alleyways. Found a local art gallery (bought a painting I definitely don't have space for, but it’s ok).
• Evening (5:00 PM - Late): Dinner. Seriously just going to eat more rice and enjoy the view.

Day 4: Waterfalls and Whispers

• Morning (7:00 AM - 10:00 AM): Wake up in the morning with the roosters. Breakfast, and then it's time to visit a hidden waterfall! The hike was way more challenging than I expected. I'm pretty sure I saw a mountain, then fell into the water again.
• Mid-morning (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Enjoy the waterfall. Worth every moment. I was like a kid again, laughing.
• Afternoon (12:00 PM - 3:00 PM): More rice fields.
• Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Do nothing.
• Evening (5:00 PM - Late): My luggage still hasn't arrived. A mix of disappointment and "who cares" has settled in. I'm wearing the same shirt I wore two days ago. But I feel free.

Day 5: Farewell (and "I'll Be Back")

• Morning (7:00 AM - 10:00 AM): Last sunrise over the rice fields. Heart. Broken.
• Mid-morning (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Check out. Said goodbye to the incredible staff, who have become my adopted Balinese family. Said a silent prayer that my luggage would miraculously appear.
• Afternoon (12:00 PM - 3:00 PM): Head to the airport. The journey was full of bumps and near crashes.
• Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): At the airport, about to fly but also not ready to fly. Waiting for my flight.
• Evening (5:00 PM - Late): On the plane. I'm going to miss Bali. I will be back.

Ramblings, Reflections, and Random Observations

• The Food: The food is absolutely incredible. Everything tastes fresh, vibrant, and just… better. Be adventurous. Try everything (except the ridiculously spicy stuff, unless you're braver than me).
• The People: The Balinese are the most welcoming, kind, and generous people I've ever met. Their smiles are genuine, their patience is limitless. Seriously, they put up with a lot.
• The Infrastructure: Traffic is a beast. Scooters are everywhere. Honking is a way of life. Embrace the chaos.
• The Luggage Saga: Still no luggage. (I'm sending this from the airport at the moment of departure.) It's become a running joke, a symbol of my Bali experience. But, you know, it really doesn't matter. I'm happy. And I'll buy a new wardrobe. I've been walking around like I'm at Coachella.
• Final Word: Bali is magical. It's messy, it's beautiful, and it will leave a mark on your soul. Go. Just… go

Ancut Sari's Rice Paddy Paradise: Room 1 w/ AC - Bali Escape: The Unfiltered FAQs (Because Let's Get Real)

Okay, spill the tea: Is this place *actually* paradise? Or is it just another Instagram lie?

Alright, buckle up buttercup, because I'm about to spill. Paradise? Well, it depends on your definition. If paradise involves perfectly manicured lawns, a constant stream of perfectly filtered Instagram stories, and the absence of rogue geckos… then, no. Absolutely not. But! If your heaven involves waking up to the sound of a million tiny frogs serenading the dawn, rice paddies stretching as far as the eye can see (and they *do* stretch, like a never-ending green carpet!), and a vibe that's so chilled you can feel your blood pressure dropping… then, yeah. It's pretty damn close. I mean, I almost tripped over a chicken on my way to breakfast one morning. Tell me *that* isn't paradise. (Okay, maybe the chicken wasn't *thrilled* with me.)

The AC… does it actually *work*? Because Bali heat is no joke.

The AC? Good question! And the answer, my friends, is… mostly. Look, let's be real, it’s not a walk-in freezer situation. This isn't a five-star hotel with a super-powered air conditioner and a perfectly made bed, it's a homestay, that's how they offer this great price! It’s Bali, after all. But, when it’s cranking, it's enough to make sweating stop. During the hottest part of the day, it’s a life-saver. There was one night though, when the electricity flickered for a bit, and the AC coughed its last breath. Suddenly, it was like living inside a sauna. I woke up several times, feeling like a melted ice cream. I was just so sticky! I seriously considered sleeping in the outdoor bale (small gazebo type of thing) until I realized the local cats would probably think it was their chance to have an evening snack.

What's the room *really* like? Be honest!

Okay, honesty time. The room is… charmingly rustic. Think clean. But also, think "Bali-rustic," which means character. And by "character," I mean the occasional rogue gecko (they’re harmless, mostly…), the rustic furniture probably sourced from somewhere a bit, and the mosquito net that's seen better days. (I think I may have fought off one or two mini battles with the mosquitoes. But at least I only got 1 mosquito bite!) The bed was comfortable, though. And the view from the window? Unbelievable. Seriously, it’s worth the price of admission alone. I spent hours just staring out, watching the farmers work, the ducks waddle, and just letting my brain switch off. It's a beautiful, simple, and perfect place to relax.

The bathroom situation? I'm not a fan of squat toilets…

Thankfully, no squat toilets! Thank the travel gods! It's a western toilet, and you'll be grateful. The shower, however, is a different story. It's what you'd call a "mandian" style shower, meaning no separate enclosure. The water pressure? Let's just say it's...variable. Expect the occasional lukewarm sprinkle. But hey, you're in Bali! It's all part of the experience, right? Though that first lukewarm shower at the end of a long hot day? *That* wasn't part of the experience I'd signed up for. But, the water *was* clean, and that's what mattered.

Food! Tell me about the food!

Oh. My. God. The food. Forget your diet. Your concerns about calories. Your worries about anything. It's delicious! Breakfast is included (thank goodness), and it's a simple, but scrummy, affair of fruit, eggs, toast, and Balinese coffee. You *must* try the local fruit. The mangos are like nothing you've ever tasted. And the banana pancakes? Forget it. Just, forget it. I'm drooling just thinking about them! Dinner can be arranged too, and it’s cooked by Ancut Sari and her family. Expect authentic Indonesian dishes, bursting with flavour. The first night, I ordered like, 4 different options from the menu, and ate them all. I think I actually moaned with pleasure. I definitely made a fool of myself, but wow was it worth it.

Is it easy to get around?

Depends. It's in a more rural, quieter area. Scooter is your friend if you want to explore. They can arrange a scooter for you easily. Driving in Bali can be… interesting. Think organized chaos, with motorbikes zipping around like caffeinated bees. I went for it on day two, and I ended up very slowly riding and being very careful! If you're not comfortable on a scooter, you can always arrange for a driver. They know all the best spots and the roads, too. And, honestly, sometimes that's just nicer, especially after a day of rice paddy gazing. It's important to know transportation options before going!

Anything else I should know? Any hidden gems or frustrating things?

Okay, a few nuggets of wisdom: * **Hidden Gem:** The sunset from the hammock. Seriously, pure magic. And it's free! * **Frustrating Thing:** The wifi can be a little spotty. Embrace the digital detox! And bring a book. * **Pro Tip:** Bring mosquito repellent. And use it. Regularly. * **Absolutely Worth It:** The chance to disconnect from the world and reconnect with yourself. That's priceless. * **Also a Pro Tip:** Bring snacks! While the food is amazing, and it's easy to get everything, you might want a secret stash. For you. (You're welcome.) Would I go back? In a heartbeat. Okay, maybe after a slightly hotter shower. But yeah. Book it. You won't regret it.

Okay, let's get personal: Would you recommend Ancut Sari's to your mother?

Okay, good question. One that really goes straight to my heart. The answer? Hmm... It's complicated. My mother, bless her, is a bit of a princess. She likes her comfort, she likes her conveniences, and she would *not* appreciate the occasional rogue gecko. She’d probably complain about the AC. (And the internet… oh, the internet!) On the other hand, she loves beauty, she loves nature, and she *adoresTravel Stay Guides
