Hostels in Kubupenlokan

View, calm, pool, atmosfere, Nature, room. I share this writing The mornings are very calm here. Most of them come to hike the volcano, so they leave before dawn and the place is almost empty. Yon and Kadek empty and fill the pools every day. They cut and water the plants with meditative music. They chat a little to the tourists, they smile at them like all good Balinese people and they say thank you in their language: “Suksama”. Tourists repeat it wrongly. Kadek is always with a smile. He brings Balinese coffee to people who decide to drink it from the thermal pools. I admire his energy, his smile and his calm and active sense of humor at the same time. His desire to encourage me to drink a shot of Arak and the toasted crumbs that he brings me for breakfast that I have never seen in all of Europe and that remind me of Argentina. The water in the pools reflects the sky, the mountains and the surrounding flowering plants. It is not clear where the sky is and where the earth. Which is the real and which is the reflection. Could it be that we are living on another plane here? Could it be that we die and we are in heaven? where time stands still and only what matters matters. Which, paradoxically, is what we always leave because it is "not important", because it is not productive, because we are not going to make a living from it, because it is not going to feed us or pay our bills or credit cards. But here there are no credit cards and at times it seems that this simply does not matter. We are on another plane. We die that life and we are in another, where what matters matters. Maybe write, maybe meditate at sunrise, maybe just breathe. Cut off the dry tops of the plants, plant new shoots, water the bushes. Maybe just appreciate the mountains, maybe be in a hot spring at 45 degrees, maybe just be thankful for being in the middle of a village lost in time, in the water of a volcano looking at the mountains. ❤️

Lovely Staff, great place and amazing breakfast

It was clean, well-equipped, no bugs, no lizards no insects on the property at all. You can tell they care so much and clean the property regularly. I book a bed in the dormitory, and it was really comfortable, you have space, the bes was really comfortable, they cool down the room before I arrived which was a pleasure after the long trip. The dormitory room was quite huge, and around the balcony there were a lot of comfortable cahir and sofa. The communicaton is exceptional, the staff is really helpful, kind, welcoming and flexible. You can tell, it’s really important to them that you feel good there, and open dor any communication before, on, and agter the booking. This is ehat I call customer care! The pool was clean, amd the whole place has this cosy welcoming atmosphere. If I return to Tulamben this is the only place I want to stay! 100% recommended! Terima kasih🙏🏾

Everything ! The bed was very comfortable, the owner are very nice. The place is quiet and you can see fireflies at night. The bungalow is well built with nice materials. The view on the rice fields is amazing. They have only 2 bungalows. One has the balcony directly on the rice fields and the other one is on the side (still very nice), this is great as you don't see anyone from your balcony, very private :)
