Ari La Casa

Stayed here for 2 nights and the absolute highlight was the hospitality of the owner. The friendliest and most welcoming host I met during my time in Indonesia! The room was clean, spacious, and super comfortable — with AC, hot water, and complimentary shower gel and shampoo, which was a nice touch. You can easily book everything through the accommodation — scooter rentals, sightseeing tours, snorkeling trips — all at better prices than what I saw online. I was traveling solo, and Ari (the owner) took me around to all the must-see spots on his scooter. He even arranged my boat ticket to Lombok, and his wife gave me a lift to the harbour with all my luggage. Just really thoughtful, above-and-beyond kind of service. The place is also close to the harbour and surrounded by great restaurants and warungs.

The hosts were fantastic — incredibly helpful and welcoming. They even drove us to the ferry and local restaurants when needed, and we were able to book activities and our return trip to Bali directly through them, which made things very convenient The rooms were clean, and the property is well located — just a short walk from the ferry and surrounded by restaurants and cafés.

Clean, good light, good bathroom, great location, right on the main street, but sat back so quiet. (There are audible Muslim call-to-prayers throughout the day; I feel obligated to mention these because I deem the place “quiet”. ) The location is within easy walking distance of not only the ferry harbor, but great dive shops (see DPM). delicious local restaurants, shops, markets, ATMs, massage and most importantly, excellent gelato. The owners are wonderfully accommodating. The proprietor took me out personally on his motor scooter to see some of the famous beaches and cliffs in the area.

Ari La Casa is one of those places that stands out as one of my best stays in Indonesia. The hosts were extremely accommodating because my ferry got cancelled so I wasn’t able to check in on the date as expected and when it came to check out they helped take my luggage to the port. The room was clean and the guesthouse conveniently located in the main street near Toya pakeh harbour. They also had an extensive array of services they offered that I wasn’t able to make use of since I had already prearranged but it’s worth noting

Komang and his wife are wonderful hosts and made our stay exceptional! Before the trip they helped us booking a boat to Nusa Penida and guided us how to reach their apartment which is very close to the harbour. On arrival we were offered cold drinks which were amazing after the crowded boat trip. The room was extremely clean. The beds were excellent! The hosts let us to use their fridge to keep our drinks cold during the stay and they offered to take us back to the harbour on our last day. If you want clean room, good price, close to shops and restoraunts, and beaches like Crystal Bay, Gamat Bay , hosts that you will feel like they are your family, this is the place to stay!
