Matahari Cottage Bed & Breakfast is situated on a secluded ravine, only a five to seven minute walk from Ubud Palace. Numerous birds and butterflies weave through the surrounding lush green jungle and garden of colorful, exotic flowers. Flocks of white herons fly in a V-formation as the glowing Balinese sun sets. The birds are on their way to their native habitat, the village of Bedulu, located a fifteen-minute drive from Ubud. Bedulu is a popular spot for tourists. Matahari Cottage Bed & Breakfast offers a five-star quality breakfast and an exquisite afternoon tea free to in-room guests. Many utensils at Matahari are antique porcelain and silverware, courtesy of our master innkeeper, who enjoys sharing his Bali lifestyle with his guests. Our breakfast menu is changed daily to satisfy all palates.

Matahari is a green bungalow, which means that ceiling and floor fans are used in place of air conditioning in all guest rooms. Air conditioning is used only in the library where numerous antique books and furniture require protection from excess humidity. Matahari's solar water heater, imported from Australia, accommodates hot baths and showers while saving electric energy. Although Bali is located only eight degree south of the equator, Ubud is located near the mountainous area where temperatures vary as much as 5 degrees Celsius between nighttime and daytime hours. Matahari Cottage Bed & Breakfast offers six rooms decorated in six different themes.
