Mana Earthly Paradise

街からは少し離れているので静かで居心地がよかったです。スタッフも親切でした ありがとうございました

地球環境にダメージを与えない暮らし方をとことん追求した施設は、観光以上に貴重な学びとなりました。そして、食事やベッドなど、快適に過ごす工夫があちこちにこらされていました。 ・タオルやシャンプーなど、ハーブの良い香りがしました ・夜もお湯がしっかり出ました ・ベッドにはおしゃれな蚊帳がついていて、安眠できました ・食事は種類も豊富で美味しかったです

Mana Earthly Paradise, located in the heart of Ubud, is the regenerative cottage!! The facility uses solar power for lighting, utilizes rainwater, as much as possible, and is built mostly with recycled materials. Around the property, native plant species are cultivated using natural farming methods to achieve more self-sufficiency in food production (Breakfasts were great!!). The owners are also nurturing social entrepreneurs in Asia. The shop is also great with selected miscellaneous goods from local suppliers.

I like, almost love this place. Love everything about it and what they stand for except for 1 thing. Almost every protein option here is fried. This is a Mecca of healthy food, but they insist on fried chicken and fried fish. I would come here 4x a week if they offered grilled chicken or fish alongside all of their other beautiful food. I just don’t understand it, they go to great lengths to make their food healthy -yet their only fish or chicken offerings are fried. (Other than bony small chicken portion on their otherwise fantastic curry). Otherwise fantastic place!

Saw this place in a magazine, so thot to try with the kids to show them about sustainability. Didnt expect it is for hard core adventurers. First, the real place isnt like the photos shown. They are more run down and just not as pretty. It was built many years ago, so it is quite old now. Expect old amenities, old facilities. Second, the water heater is using gas not electricity. It means it’ll be either very hot or very cold, nothing in between, unless you keep adjusting it. I managed to take a quick shower with warm water by keep adjusting it while showering. My son didnt and he gave up trying:D Third, we didnt expect there were so many insects in the villa. Big black ants, moths, spiders, wasp, flies, mosquitos. They were on the bed, on the floor, flying around. Too much more than we could bear. I could understand this is eco-hotel, they want to encourage people to live with zero waste, so they use water gallon instead of water bottles. But somehow after using the water gallon in the room to rinse the glass, I had diarrhea 🤣 Should have figured out the hygiene level after seeing those insects I am sure the staffs tried their best to accomodate, but it just didnt work for our family. We can do camping & glamping, yet not this one 😂
