The Ultimate Stay for Travelers Who Want It All

Perfectly placed near Uluwatu’s best surf breaks and beach clubs, the hostel combines adventure, relaxation, and a buzzing social scene. It’s got everything travelers need to make the most of their time in Bali.

Mad Monkey Uluwatu is built for travelers who love adventure but also know the importance of a solid recharge. Whether you’re riding barrels, sweating out last night’s tequila shots, or just here to meet like-minded backpackers, we’ve got you covered. Grab a drink at our Poolside Cave Bar, where the bar is literally built into a cave, or hit the Sauna, Ice Bath & Jacuzzi for the ultimate reset—sweat it out, take the plunge, and repeat. Need to keep up your fitness routine? Our on-site gym has you covered before you hit the waves or the next beach party. When it’s time to crash, choose between social dorms or private rooms, all designed for comfort, whether you’re here to meet people or just need a solid night’s sleep.
