Dear All, I have spend three days in Payongan (25-28 of July 08). It is just another example of a paradisiac place, where poor management impact what could be a truly great experience. Here are the main highlights for this place: Strengths: - excellent location - beautiful view - nice vegetation and plants in the resort - good breakfast -... more

this will be a long awaited review. we stayed here 2 years ago. my boyfriend and i stumble upon this hotel from one of the travel agent booths at bali denpasar airport. we were there after the 2nd bali bombing incident. so i guess tourism in bali was very affected. we decided to stay at this hotel after looking at... more

We stayed at the Payogan in January 2008 and found it to be both lovely and inconsistant at the same time. We had a 2-bedroom villa with a private fresh water pool (much appreciated since I'm allergic to chlorine), which was lovely. With the exception of the fact that the upper bedroom had terrible lighting (no chance to read at... more

Our tour agency (balitraveling) booked us on this hotel, though our original choice was The Maya. Since this place is much cheaper and the photos looked good and remarks generally positive, we decided to give it a try. I share similar remarks with most of the other reviews posted - the surrounding is just so beautiful and peaceful and the... more

We just got back from Ubud yesterday & stayed for 1 night at the Payogan, although our original plan was to stay for 5 nights. If you look at my attached pics you will probably think "WOW!" The hotel is really amazing looking & opulent, especially the lobby, dining rooms, pool area & extensive grounds. When you look at the... more

A beautiful peaceful setting in lovely gardens, but this hotel didn't live up to expectations after a stay in the Novotel Benoa which was cheaper and far better. The bed linen was stained, the room was like a mausoleum - huge and bland. With all the lovely art and textiles in the area it would have been easy to brighten... more

This hotel and its surroundings are really beautiful. We had our own little "villa" with our own small private pool. There is a great view over a small valley and the whole site is really beautiful with little gardens. The main pool is also very pretty. There is a shuttle service into town. If you'd like to go into town... more

I checked out from Tegal Sari and stayed at Payogan from 17th Sept to 20 Sept. I booked a one bedroom villa with private pool. The surrounding and villa is beautiful. Bedroom has a valley view. Spacious bathroom with full amenities, huge tub and standing shower. Outdoor area has a bale with daybed, dining table and private pool. Pool water... more

We enjoyed our stay at the Payogan. It was great for us and our 1.5 year-old daughter. We were in a villa/room with it's own pool. Our daughter could actually sleep in a separate room and they included a pack-n-play for her to sleep in at no extra charge. There was always fresh fruit in our room including the delicious,... more
