Walk into the paddy field as early as 6.30am, the terrace paddy field just look wonderful.

Enjoying a local breakfast with a nice view.

Our hotel is not near the Jatiluwih center, but it is still surrounded by a lot of terrace rice field.

Basic and clean open hair hotspring, only seen two couples here during our visit. IDR 25K per person (include a small bottle of water)

This is a major attraction, a really huge area of terrace rice field with multiple marked trails between 30 minutes and 2 hours. There are many small stalls between the rice field, and probably a few restaurants and cafes as well. The weather is pretty glommy when we arrived. This is probably the largest terrace rice field in Bali. Entrance is IDR 40K per person and IDR 5K for car parking.

We wanted to try some mutton sate. The sate comes with peanut sauce, and taste wise is okay. Sadly it doesn't have a good mutton flavour. IDR 60K for 2 person

The is a huge place by the lake. There are two pagoda like structure on the lake, and also a double dragon. And also a few huge Balinese gates. There is a huge park, with various statue of animals. They expand the place with a few more man-made tourist attractions, like more photographs station, more statues, a mini garden, a cute little zoo and a restaurant. There are also speed boat tour or swan boat paddling in the lake. Along the road outside the temple sells lots of strawberries and fried snacks (keripik). Strawberry seels fir IDR 25K for 500g, while snack goes for IDR 10K for 5 packets. Entrance fee is IDR 50K

This is a modern eco lodge, so it has a modern kitchen with fancy western options. The room we booked is quite small, where the dining and bathroom is on the ground floor, and our room is on the first floor. There is no AC or fan as it is pretty cold at night. They provided a free water dispenser. The hot water here is quite limited, only 30L, so you need to bath quickly. Dinner is slightly expensive, and taste wise is good. The staffs are well trained in hospitality. The free peanuts are tasty (feels like peanuts in Bali generally taste good).

Delicious breakfast with a great view.

Walking down the valley from Ayu Gumi Eco lodge, there is a yoga platform and a small stream. If you are adventurous enough to follow the stream for 5 minutes, you shall be rewarded with Tutub Waterfall. The water is really cold, as the sunshine hardly penetrate the valley. There is a water tube to float on the tiny pool.

We took the free transport from Arya Utama (our hotel) to this nearby restaurant (walking is hard due to the terrain and traffic). The food is delicious. We ordered Lawar Babi and Pepes Ikan. The dessert Dadar Guling is warm and tasty too.

This is the best hotel we stayed so far, also the most expensive. We stay in a special room, the waterfall cottage. It has a huge balcony with a outdoor sofas and sunbed. The room offer a 270 degrees all glass view of the surrounding, where you can see the valley, far away mountain and even the sea. The comes with a kitchen as well, a living room and a bathtub. You can order food from their restaurant and they will deliver it to your room. The comfort and the view of this room is really great.
