Natya River Sidemen Reviews

Situated in a tranquil valley, Natya Riverside has breathtaking views of the rice fields and surrounding forests. It's a beautiful place to escape and camp in comfort. The staff are wonderful, they made us feel welcomed and made sure we had everything we needed including trying to book tours for us. The pool is great for relaxing (but not that deep), and you can bathe in the river. There are plenty of shady areas to hangout in and enjoy the breeze. The evening bonfire really rounds out the camping experience where you can chat with other guests or stargaze. I liked the outdoor showers but struggled to close the door completely - not that it mattered because there's foliage providing privacy but some campers might feel it's too open. It's situated on the outskirts of town but most activities offer a hotel pick up. The best experience was crafting our own silver rings with the local Silver Class Sidemen family who are a 20 minute drive from Natya. I can't wait to return :)

This was one of the best places I’ve been to The tents were quite big and well equipped The view is very beautiful, especially in the early morning The food in the hotel is good as well as drinks I’ll definitely come back here again

Overall positive. We unfortunately haven't been noticed of the construction work (pool and terrace coming soon) and the resulting noise occurring during our stay.

A unique place by the river) Indescribable atmosphere, very cozy, beautiful and delicious!

Great place, super nature, very cozy, I recommend it to everyone!

Really amazing place. Wild close to a river. Bali (wild) country side pure. Infrastructure well maintained and at an excellent level for a glamping place. Staff friendly and helpful. Local food pretty good too. All for a very modest price. Yet..there is a big BUT..its definitely lacking a concept. It was the case in 2022 and still now. Since it cant be that (sorry) mainly locals (my partner is from Bali) do book evenings for very loud karaoke events. Staff also is keeping the music in the evening extremly loud. During the day you have school classes having big fun in the pool. As paying guest well you leave the place right away since even so we love kids..yet it gets obviously very loud. (Loud) construction is ongoing also for local house" which will be used apparently as planned for the weekend big DJ music sessions..a little info and sorry about the even at night ongoing construction would have been appreciated.. So glamping is for at least our understanding about enjoying nature, eventually local (healthy) food and why not yoga classes or as planned too local cooking classes. Natya river could have that all in a unique way. (Unfortunatelly) as currently the case its a big mainly kind of amusement park until partly late at night...yet if continued like that then we predict it will never really work well especially during the week. Also it will hardly be appreciated by foreigners and many locals neither who all seek rather the first aspects than loud music, screaming day visitors etc. which you can get in Canggu etc. So we strongly recommend implicating our greatest admiration for natya river (and its truth potential) that (finally) the management and owner family rethink and set a smart positioning for this precious place. Yet to be rather frank if it stays as currently the case we wont be able to recommend a (glamping) stay.
