Reviews of DWan Tea Mountain Side 2 stars

We cannot give a review, as we decided against staying.

We decided against staying once we arrived. It is so far away from town, the access road was rough and not properly made. Our driver had trouble getting to the top of the road in order to get to the property. It was frightening and we did not feel safe.

Review of D’Wan Tea Mountain Side Villa I had a wonderful time at D’Wan Tea Mountain Side Villa. This place is a true paradise for those seeking solitude and a chance to experience the authentic Bali with its unique nature and traditions. Getting there is indeed challenging, but coordinating with the host beforehand solves all issues. The villa is surrounded by magnificent rice fields and scenic spots that are a must-see. I particularly enjoyed the tea ceremony masterclass, which added unique experiences to my stay. Although there were some misunderstandings with the staff due to language barriers, all issues were promptly resolved, and they were always eager to help. The trip to the local temple was one of the highlights thanks to the staff’s assistance. The only thing that could have improved my stay is the variety and quality of food. I would like to see a wider selection of dishes with clear descriptions in English in the future. Overall, I felt at home here and would happily recommend this place to anyone wanting to discover the real Bali.

Loved it here

This is I think one of the best possible view of Mountain and forest you can ever get in Bali, we can literally feel the jungle living with us, breathing with us, waking up in morning with us from the room and gallery. The Staff at this stay made us feel like home with no hesitation to help us with everything and with love from their heart very accommodating. most of the meals we had with the staff and family and it was delicious, pure and made with love after asking us what we want every time. I wish I could go here for longer stay in future! Thank you D Wan staff and family.

The location and the view is unique! I loved the sauna and the pool!

So parts seems a little worn and outdated. The menu was limited.

One of the most peaceful places I’ve ever been to

Nothing, the place was exceptional

Crew, view, interior, style, food. And the remote, quiet location. You can really relax here. Great pool too with natural water

Nothing comes to mind

Great host, great place, great views !

Perfect place! Inside the rain forest! The staff and owners are very friendly.

Location is in the quiet, outside of the tourist trap of Jatiluwih. But still close enough to all those must do activities in the village, either by a good walk (downhill) or moped ride. We ended up renting mopeds in the village (family of 4, kids on the back). It gave us the independence we wanted to choose when to head back, where to eat, etc. The location is down and up a few steep roads, which is common for Bali, but a little tough to navigate. And although I say “quiet”, it is in the forest, and the forest noises are loud at night! Geckos, roosters in the morning, etc, quite the chorus. Breakfast and dinners were very tasty Indonesian fare. The views are Spectacular across the forest. The Joglo room/house is good, but the bathroom and shower is quite dated. Not the same standard as the double rooms. The host is a great character and helped us feel at home and settle in. We tasted the tea, which was lovely.

Pool was being filled up when we arrived, so not so inviting, but over the days, it was getting replenished (due to leaks, I believe). We didn’t use the pool at all in the end, nor the sauna. There was a toilet in the communal area downstairs by the gym and sauna, but it was not clean. The entrance to the Joglo house is disappointing - see the photo, you approach from the back side, which is not its best angle. Hard to change this, but you should not have false expectations.

Ciew

Dangerous and dirty swimming pool. No way to access pool other than 1 metre drop onto a ledge with no steps . Absolutely no maintenance or hygiene. Can’t believe the reviews they don’t in any way reflect our experience . Bedding damp and food choice non existent . Price in no way reflects what’s on offer . Never done a review before but this place is a health hazard in my opinion . Ridiculous drive to get there up rough track only suitable for motorbike. We have travelled all over Bali and don’t expect anything luxurious but come on this property and its owners are taking people for a ride. It is not quiet we had to listen to cockerels screaming g all night until dawn. Booked for 2 nights only stayed for one as arrived late and couldn’t wait to leave. Owner Not interested in listening to our concerns. Finally no key lock to our bedroom just given a padlock to secure it which really says everything about this place.

The view in the morning is good. The dinner is simple but very tasty. The service organized day trip with a driver within few minutes which is the only reason this got more than 1/10 from me.

I know some living nature is expected, but inside our room was flying bat, gecko, giant spiders and other stuff I don't even know the names for. The furniture in the house is very worn with lots of dents. In one of the dents there were some eggs inside and this it's where you have your head in bed. Needles to say, that was a difficult night. There were even snails in the bathroom and the main room. Curtains were dirty with lots of stains. Seriously, it's not worth it. Go somewhere else, there's plenty to choose from.

stunning view, very nice food, very friendly people....like a home, far away from home.

The property provided an excellent getaway for my weekend retreat. The owner was incredibly friendly and hospitable, which added to the overall positive experience. The room itself was excellent, offering comfort and all the amenities I needed. I truly enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend it to others looking for a relaxing escape.

The WiFi in my room was not functional, so I had to relocate to the dining area whenever I needed to use it.

The place is amazing in the middle of the mountain and forest, with an incredible stylish design, it is very peaceful and the host Wawan is very nice and welcoming!

The access is not very easy as it is a hidden place, we get there through tiny roads. To have flexibility on going around, it is recommended to come with motobike.

amazing views across the cloud forest and to the mountains? peace and quiet far from the crowds.

slightly scary 300m mountain path to get to the house. An adventure!

Beautiful food and peaceful location

Rooms need some attention and until the road is completed you need to be prepared for walk from road to place along single track.

Staff kindness, foot, great location and view

Swimming pool could have been cleaner (not really conform with site pictures)

The bedroom decor. The food.

Several things. I didnʻt understand from the description that the only way to access was by a single dirt path. My room had large, loud flies at night. The buzzing made it impossible to do anything. I tried to find help but no one was around. The flies were around all the lights upstairs in the kitchen, in the common areas. I had to find a way to kill many of them and they kept coming through the roof. Water was not replenished in my room. The bathroom trash was not emptied. I was offered dinner but not told how much it cost. I thought it and the room were overpriced.

uniqueness, the character, the people, the tea workshop, massages, Dwan.

the ants, the internet.
