About this house rental
This villa is a wood and clay house, an ecobuilding constructed with recycled wood and mud plastered brick wall . Planned by a Japanese designer, it is a blend of Old Balinese, Old Javanese and Japanese Zen-style architecture with open-air and nature friendly design.
The bedroom on 1st floor has a queen-sized bed (200x160cm). The 2 bedrooms on 2nd floor has a king-sized bed (200x180cm) which can be turned into 2 separate twin beds (200x90cm).

Local people from the surrounding village was hired in building this house. The foreman is the 'klian' or head of the banjar (village community). And some of the builders are also traditional musicians who perform 'gamelan' (traditional balinese musical instrument) orchestra regularly at the village temple festivals. Balinese women from the village, had carried building materials to the site on their heads.
On the 1st floor is a Japanese 'ENGAWA' sitting area with a view to a vegetable garden. The wall on this sitting area is constructed with clay, sand, lime, straw and bamboo which is a method used in building a traditional Japanese tea room.

Wonderful!! Highly recommended...
We had the most wonderful stay in Ubud at lovely Noka House. The villa itself is breathtaking along with its position near paddy fields. Lots of wildlife, birds and insects to keep us company. Nyoman, Ketut and Wayan are so gracious and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Highlights for us are the Balinese people, they are so lovely, and my trip to the Yoga barn on the back of Wayan's scooter was hilarious if not a little bit terrifying. Could not recommend Noka House highly enough and would love to return one day. Thank you!!

Exceptional property and service
I cannot speak highly enough of the Artist Eco Villa, it was everything I imagined it to be and more. The property is beautifully designed maximising the surrounding environment, offering fantastic views out every window, loads of throughout spaces throughout the house to offer chill out areas, the personal touches (yoga mats) artwork and attention to detail (umbrellas) made our stay that much more enjoyable.
Nyoman was the perfect host and went above and beyond to ensure we had an enjoyable stay. Our children looked forward to the morning breakfast with great excitement, and the beautiful present and delicious breakfast was a highlight for all. Nyoman local knowledge and recommendations were spot on, motorbikes, taxi and massages, were very easily arranged for us.
