overview
Cempaka Belimbing Villa sits deep in the Tabanan countryside, ringed by rice fields with the mountains behind, built as a small nature resort rather than a conventional hotel. Thatched-roof villas are decorated in traditional Balinese style, with satellite TV and a mini-bar, some villas have air conditioning, others only a fan, worth confirming at booking.
An outdoor pool, a heated jacuzzi, and a spa offering Balinese massage and flower baths round out the amenities. The restaurant serves Balinese, Indonesian, and European dishes with a daily American breakfast, and Batukaru Mountain is a scenic 30-minute drive, this is a base for exploring rural Tabanan rather than day-tripping to the coast.

Base yourself at Cempaka Belimbing in Tabanan
Start with Cempaka Belimbing's live prices for your dates, since room rates in Tabanan swing with the season. Then look at activity packages, since Tanah Lot at sunset and the Jatiluwih rice walk are easy to add once your base is set. Finally, price a car: the area is rural and the sights are far apart. The three links below go straight to each.
our review
Confirm whether your villa has air conditioning or only a fan. Some have one, some the other, and in Bali that is not a small difference. It is the first thing we would ask before booking here.
With that settled, Cempaka Belimbing is a small nature resort deep in the Tabanan countryside, ringed by rice fields with mountains behind, in thatched-roof villas built in traditional Balinese style. There is an outdoor pool, a heated jacuzzi, and a spa doing Balinese massage and flower baths. This is rural Bali properly: no shops, no nightlife, no walking anywhere. Come for the fields and the quiet, with a car.

Where is Cempaka Belimbing located?

It holds a guest review score of 8.3 on Booking.com, and is rated a 4-star property. Guest scores move over time, so check the latest before you book.
How do you get to Cempaka Belimbing from the airport?
