Pondok Batur Indah

Jaw-dropping is the only word to use when describing the rice-terrace views enjoyed from the terrace of this homestay on the ridge above Tirta Gangga. The five rooms are simple but clean, with fans and basic bathrooms. There's an on-site restaurant serving home-style dishes (25,000Rp to 55,000Rp), and the water palace is a 10- to 15-minute walk away, down a steep set of steps.
