We didn’t want to leave! The staff were chatty, helpful and on hand to help with whatever questions. The food was delicious and we didn’t eat anywhere else. The location is stunning and we felt at ease here. The room was large with an effective mosquito net. Our favourite features were the outside shower and hammock by the river. A very romantic, off the beaten path hotel. Would 100% stay again.

For $400 plus Aussie dollars a night this hotel did not meet my expectations. The scenery was beautiful but so is the whole of Sidemen. The reception was barely friendly and there were bugs on my pillow. …

We had a wonderful time at Darmada Eco Resort in Sidemen! In any case, Sidemen is a gem to discover, but our stay in Darmada made our experience even better. The staff is friendly and helpful, the food in Melita restaurant is delicious (be sure to try the Balinese rice table) and a private yoga class and massages are also recommended. The hotel is right next to the Sidemen Rice Terrace trekking, so you can easily walk it on your own. Houses with a view of nature, mini rice fields on the doorstep and the sound of the river. Definitely go here!

Wow! This resort is truly beautiful! We stayed in the Deluxe room and it has a lovely outdoor shower. In the morning the sun shines on it and you want to stand there forever.The food was also very tasty. Especially the Indonesian dishes. Breakfast also good. Especially the pancakes and smoothie bowl.The garden and pool are incredible! It is so beautiful and when the sun breaks through you can relax by the pool!We were not bothered by insects or animals. We were a bit afraid of this in the beginning, but it was anything but. Sometimes you are woken up in the night by a gecko making resin noise outside your room, but this only makes the jungle experience super fun! :)Thank you for the hospitality and good care. Hopefully see you soon!Ooh and the massages were wonderful! Definitely recommended.

A real favorite! The Darmada is a jewel in a green setting! Along a river, this establishment has several rooms with four-poster beds, outdoor bathroom and 2 terraces (one in front and one behind).There is also a very pretty swimming pool, a massage parlor and a restaurant which allows you to eat facing the river.The staff is extremely friendly, helpful and smiling!I really recommend this establishment!
