d'Sawah Amed Homestay and warung — Hotel in Kecamatan Abang

We want to stay a few days at d‘Sawah but finally we stayed more than 10 days! The homestay is well located in Amed! Very near to the beach (2 minutes to Amed beach, 5 minutes to Jemeluk beach, 15 minutes to Lipah beach) but not directly at the beach, so it’s really calm (at the beach it’s a little crowdy) and you have also the great view to the mountains. Although you are directly at the street, what is really useful, all rooms are totally quiet. The rooms are very clean, very spacious and the furniture is very sophisticated! You find a big bed with great mattress (I am very sensitive, cause I have some problems with my back, but slept like a baby!), two bedside table, a wardrobe and a safe! You have a small room between the bedroom and the street which is perfect to dry your swimming clothes and bath towels, but also for sound isolation! The bathroom is very clean, spacious and really nice designed! Our highlight was the balkony in the room at the first floor or the terrace at the groundfloor! You can have your breakfast there or see the sunset and have that great view to the mountains, hearing the water from a small water canal beside the house! This place is really peaceful! Normally we planned to eat every day in a local Warung (the small traditional restaurants), but from the first day we came to d‘Sawah we never ate somewhere else like in the own warung, which is located just beside the rooms! You cannot find better food than at d‘Sawah warung! Susie, the owner will cook you the best traditional food, but also the best „western“ food (I loved the steak). The food is fresh, Susie loves to cook and she always use only fresh ingredients! If you ask her she will also cook for you what is not part at the menu, like she prepared Babi Guling for us! But although the homestay is well located, the rooms are clean and spacious, the food is great, the most important reason why we highly recommend this place to stay is Susie and her team! From the first moment Susie was like a sister for us! She take care of everything! Because the ATM in the city didn’t work at the first day, we couldn’t pay our driver, Susie helped us out. I had some problems with my stomach, as we arrived, Susie made some tea for me (I think it was tea from tumerik) and instantly it was getting better). Every night we sat together with Susie talking about everything and looking pictures of the day. She gave us valuable tips where to go and what to do. She organized everything, the motor bike, our trip to Gili inbetween our stay in Amed, she brought us to the best massage salon in Amed and organized the laundry of our clothes! The transport to the airport was organized by her eldest son, who is a cautious and safe driver! We could really enjoy our stay, cause Susie taked care of everything! Also her staff was so nice and everytime approachable and helpful! If you are looking for a really peaceful, clean place which is central but a little outside the hustle, this is the place to stay in Amed! For us it was perfect because we never had the feeling just staying in a hotel but like living with a family! Thank you so much Susie! We will definitely see again if we come...

Susie is an amazing woman, talented chef, and gracious host. I had the pleasure of meeting her by attending her cooking class. She was very knowledgeable and her skills are beyond impressive. The food she makes is clearly made from love and expertise, which you can taste in every bite. I am so grateful that I was able to learn how to cook a few Balinese dishes from her and can't wait to take what I've learned home to practice. Susie was kind, patient, and ran her kitchen like a true professional. After the class, d'Sawah had become our go-to warung in Amed. We had tried a few others in the area but it became quite obvious that Susie is the undisputed champion of deliciously satisfying, nutrient-dense Indonesian food. She added very thoughtful touches to our food after learning about my Wife's gluten allergy and our addiction to Balinese levels of spice. The environment of her warung and homestay is world-class and she made us feel incredibly welcome, like a part of her family. The time and experience that we shared with Susie is truly unforgettable. It feels like I have a Balinese mom on the opposite side of the world. When we are back in Amed, we are sure to spend more time at Susie's place. We are wishing her well, and all the success that her and her family deserve. I will be sure to keep them in my thoughts while reflecting on our time in Amed and am looking forward to the next time that we can be graced by Susie's presence, kindness, and artisanal culinary experience. See you when I see you, Susie! Matur...

We first decide to stay here for one day while looking for other accomodation around Amed but turns out we stayed here all throughout our 7 days trip in Amed. ||During our stay, each day comes with a nice delicious simple breakfast with homemade sourdough bread, homemade jam, butter, egg (anyway we like to have it), fruit platter/juice & coffee/tea. Or if we're in the mood to have rice for breakfast, they also provide nasi goreng. Or a pancake for breakfast also another option they provide.||Room are clean, spacious with balcony overseeing the rice paddies and the hill. Not far from Amed beach and close to snorkeling place around Amed (Jemeluk, Lipah & Japanese wreck). Food are easy to find around the area especially as right now our visit are during the covid time. Alternatively, the restaurant food there is also good there and we have the best time having dinner there. We loves ordering mango lassie on a hot day when we're staying in & waiting for the sun to goes down a little bit before exploring the surrounding area again in the afternoon.||The owner (ibu Susie) and the staff there are really attentive. They made our stay...
