My husband and I and our 3 children aged 6,8 and 10 years have just returned from our trip to Bali where we stayed in various places all over the island. Sayen Terrace was the absolute highlight. The setting is mindblowing, with the most spectacular view ever, right down to the Ayung River, across the rice paddies and up to... more

Please don't go there! Ok the view is the best we've ever seen, but the room wasn't clean, the bed was clammy, like lying in bed with a fever for a couple of days, the smell was terrible, the bathroom was old and the frigidaire outside the room didnt close and because it was outside there was no light (well... more

This was our first stop on a 10-day honeymoon in Bali, and we loved it. Ubud is a vibrant - if now crowded - town in central Bali with tons of great culture: restaurants, shops, traditional dance performances, cooking classes, museums, and the beautiful Ayung River valley, above which is perched the lovely Sayan Terrance Resort. We stayed in a... more

The Honeymoon suite is just fantastic for the price. The view is outstanding of the rice fields. We hired a guide who took us on a 4 hour hike and then invited us to his village ceremony at night. It was a great place to start the trip as it was an introduction to the true Bali. more

We styayed at the STR for 4 nights and loved it. The hotel organised free collection from the airport and it was the owner that picked us up. On arrival we were a little disappointed as the outdoor reception appears to be a desk in a scruffy back yard but after a quick check in (no drinks or cold towels)... more

After staying one night at a homestay ($20 for a double), we decided to check out Sayan Terrace. After scoping out the place (remember to bargain with everyone in Bali, including cab drivers and hotels!), we decided to stay in the Honeymoon Cottage which was much nicer than two of the other rooms we saw and on par with the... more

I was led to this hotel by lonely planet, which highly recommends it. Booking was simple online. Before I left for Bali, I read A House in Bali by Colin McPhee which describes a house that McPhee built on the exact site where Sayan Terrace now sits. Sadly, the house no longer exists. The hotel is a simple transport ride... more

Arrived in Ubud after dark, and contacted the hotel by phone - they still had a room available, and I even got a nice discount. And what a room it was, with an amazing view and a balcony (on which they serve you breakfast). The staff was ever so friendly, and were more than happy to give you tips, take... more

Have been to many places around the world but this has to be up there as one of the best views ever..rooms could do with a lick of paint but don't let that put you off...staff really friendly and helpful... more
