Muni's Place is one of the best place we have stayed in Bali. The best of the best!! When I did the booking, Jonathan (later we discovered is Ibu Murni's business partner) arranged for our check-in and transport. He was very professional giving us information with pictures as from how to clear our baggage and to meet his driver who later became our good friend.
The moment we met Wayan, his driver, we knew we are going to enjoy our stay. We arrived at Murni's house, welcomed by Ibu Murni herself and Jonathan. She also introduced her daughter-in-law who happens to be there to put the prayer's flowers at the reception.
Murni's house is a traditional Balinese compound where the houses are built among the beautiful gardens. There are Balinese art everywhere as Ibu Murni collects them from all over the world.
We were given a welcome treat, pulut and ginger tea. Ibu Murni spend about more than half hour with us as if we were her long lost friend. It was that comfortable.
We booked The Studio through Expedia but later we discovered she had few properties in the area. The Studio is the newest property. Later, we discovered that it was by pure luck that we managed to get the booking through Expedia. It is so clean and spacious built with a bambo roof as a Balinese house should be. There is no aircon but the ventilation is good. Instead of having glass wall or bricks, they installed a mosquito net like so there is no small flies coming into the house.
Her staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly. You can have breakfast at their dining area or in your room. As The Studio is on the 2nd floor, we preorder our breakfast. Everyday, you be greeted by the staff on time setting the table.. One time my wife chose Bubur Pulut Hitam. Oh!! so heavenly. Every morning, we looked forward to our breakfast.
