This is perhaps the most beautiful temple here in northern Bali. It's a bit hidden away from the beaten track, and that makes it so much more special. It's definitely worth the time to come here, do some prayers, and experience the oasis of serenity that is surrounding this religious place.

Visiting Pura Melanting was an experience filled with peace and deep cultural charm. Tucked away in the lush greenery near Pemuteran, this temple isn’t as crowded as some of Bali’s more famous spots, which makes it feel even more special. The temple is dedicated to the goddess of trade and prosperity, and you can truly feel the positive energy here. Walking through the beautifully decorated gates, surrounded by intricate carvings and serene courtyards, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of calm. The vibrant offerings, the soft sound of the breeze through the trees, and the distant chants created a mesmerizing atmosphere. One of the best parts of visiting Pura Melanting was the journey itself—driving through quiet roads surrounded by nature before arriving at this hidden sanctuary. Whether you’re looking for a spiritual experience or just a peaceful retreat away from the crowds, this temple is definitely worth a visit. If you’re in the Pemuteran area, take the time to stop by Pura Melanting. It’s a place that stays with you long after you leave.

This is one of the most stunning temples I've been to in Bali, and by far the best value. We rocked up and made sure our shoulders were covered as per normal regs. As we approached the entrance we were approached and told we would need sarongs - previous experience here has told me someone is going to charge a fee or try to sell me an unwanted item. Nope, not at all, he just popped them on us in a friendly manner and shooed us towards the steps telling us to make a donation when we came back down! This friendliness and lack of asking for money is such a rarity in Bali - and to top it off, the temple is stunning. So many colours and decorations and dragons, and it's open - you are free to explore almost everywhere! When we came out we had questions and the same friendly gentleman answered them all and we were free to donate as well felt comfortable. It's a temple well worth visiting for the atmosphere and to see the beauty - or if you have a business you want to thrive (the speciality of this particular temple).

Underrated temple, go there ! We went there and just had to give a donation to get in, no fixed price. It was by far my favourite temple in Bali. No fake picture spots for insta girls, no tourists, only locals taking care of the place. Very authentic but still big and beautiful. Some monkeys and dogs are walking around but they are absolutely not aggressive, it's rather nice. I recommend going there for sunset, the colors are beautiful!

Beautiful temple and friendly people. They ask you for a small donation, but how much is completely up to you. The temple is quite the sight and is great for taking pictures. There are monkeys, but they are not the aggressive type that follows you. Just don’t get too close to them and they’ll just play around the temple.

Amazing clam place. Lovely to watch local Balinese people in the ceremonies and also to watch the cheeky monkeys try to come and steal the food being offered!

Clean ,serene temple in the west part of Buleleng . I found quite a bit different architecture compare to other Pura in most part Bali island

A stunning temple located at a cliff side near the ocean. The decoration mixes Balinese and Chinese influences. A lot of monkeys are roaming around so watch out for your belongings. You make a pay as you wish "donation" (average donation I saw was around 20-30K IDR/pax) and get a sarong and sash. You can take pictures in the temple. Me and my girlfriend we escorted by two Balinese kids with stick to protect us from the monkeys. The temple itself is very nice I highly recommend to visit it.

A must come & visit temple 🛕. It is right on the ocean/beach, so has a very special atmosphere. A few monkeys, but they were not interested in tourists 🐒 . Worth to vor here!

Stopped at this beach side temple on the way back to Lovina, temple festival was in progress. Amazing view and lots of monkeys

First time visit this temple even I have been to Pura Pulaki many time, Pura Pabean has very interesting location on the ocean in front of Pulaki, unique symbols inside and mysterious. I think I will visit this place again when I come back to Pulaki. Now we finished the visit to Pulaki and Pabean and going to visit Melanting.

Such a beautiful temple, next to the beach and also there's a lot of monkeys right here.

Beautiful ocean view from here. Beware a lot of naughty monkeys here. They can steal something from you, is you want it back, you can bribe the monkeys with food

Saw a beautiful sunset from here, also had a ceremony going on in the temple. Lots of monkeys, take care.

Pulaki Temple is a beautiful and peaceful place to visit, right along the northern coast of Bali. What makes it really special is its location, which is set between the ocean and the hills, with lovely views of the water on one side and lush greenery on the other. The temple itself is impressive, with detailed carvings and a calm, spiritual atmosphere. There are also monkeys around the temple, which adds a bit of fun, but as always in Bali, it’s best to keep your belongings secure just in case. It was not crowded when we visited, which made it feel extra peaceful and easy to take in the surroundings at our own pace. Obviously it's also important to make sure to wear respectful clothing when entering the temple (like covering your shoulders and legs, or wearing a sarong), as this is a sacred place of worship. Dressing appropriately shows respect for the local culture and religious traditions, and is expected at all temples across Bali. Definitely worth a stop if you are exploring the north of Bali. It's a beautiful mix of nature, culture, and history in a really scenic spot.

Absolutely worth to come here. Nice atmosphere. You might need to ask to get into the main temple area, don't be shy!

Nice temple, fee is donation based, I feel it's fair to pay 10-20k/person. Watch out for the monkeys

An absolutely beautiful temple nestled into the cliffside. It really complements the environment around it rather than dominating it. We gave a donation to the priest and left our helmets with him to look after, then went inside for a look. It's truly stunning, maybe my favorite temple I've visited in Bali. The ambience is really special and you have 2 statues in a bit of rock jutting out into the water. The sunset was spectacular here.

Too many monkeys! They're aggressive. Be careful, keep your distance! The temple is nice.

Beautiful temple Beware of monkeys Secure your belonging, these monkeys are not friendly. You can hire local boys to secure your belonging when visit the temple, cost of 10k/person. Parking is not secure, most monkey loves to play on the car roof. Dont bring your luxurious car unless it insured. You may have scratches on your hoods or roof car. nothing you can do about this, they are wild animal. Be smart Parking cost 2k-5k its donation.

Great temple facing an amazing beach view 🏖 I felt like going through an attraction! #somuchemotion Those monkeys are no jokes though!! So be careful of what you bring when going there. Also, Park your scooter away from the temple if you don’t want them to mess with it.

Avoid this place... Ripped off big time. Flyers for Happy hour on the tables. Warm beer too, and when I went to pay instead of 35k the price was 45k, I was then told that there is no happy hour. They could clearly see I wasn't impressed. Instead of honouring the happy hour price, the staff just basically said tough luck. Most other bars down the street are all 35k for ice cold beer so why even bother coming here. Better service and they might have got 3 stars max. No wonder I was the only customer.

The best place to enjoy in Pemuteran with Billard (new and very good) and Darts with the most friendly and sweet team ❤️❤️ the owner is also very attentive and care about your vibz ♥️also they have concert I highly recommended this place and definetly will come back 😁🙏♥️ matur suksma

Live music on Fridays and Tuesdays. Delicious home cooking. We had a fantastic tuna steak.

Need a night out in Pemuteran? Then this is the place to go! Meet the local crew, and mingle with the newbies too…. With some great live music, and great drinks! Don’t forget to say hi to Joe, as he will warmly welcome you to join the party.

Good food with medium priced main courses. The quality is good, staff is friendly and the restaurant is really nice. Keep up the good work !

Very nice, cold beer and great pool table, nice staff

Excellent value for money. Food was stunning. Drinks in the happy hour included garlic bread or fries. We'll be back in 2 days for more of the same.

Wow, what a nice surprise! The location is perfect, a bit behind the main street, so not noisy yet accessible. Really cosy atmosphere. The staff is super welcoming. And what to say about the food… it’s delicious! The banoffee is a must try! Will definitely be back, thanks for the lovely evening

Our absolute favourite place to eat in Pemuteran. Not only the food is tasty, healthy and nourishing but the staff is just fantastic. They always greets us with smiles and excellent service. We’ve been coming for their delicious juices & smoothies, their great bowls and curries but also because is genuinely so nice to spend time in the restaurant. Kadek 🌺 and all the team members 🌺🌺are lovely, friendly, professional and efficient. 10/10 ✨

Brilliant place for breakfast lunch or dinner, or anything in between. We ate here several times during our stay in Pemuteran, each time the food was delicious, the service friendly. The vibe is also lovely. We tried a whole range of dishes, loved the poke bowl, burger and were blown away with a serving of local food for two: balinese beginning.

The smoothie bowl is absolutely delicious! The base is creamy and refreshing, with the perfect balance of natural sweetness. Topped with fresh fruits, crunchy granola, and a drizzle of honey, it’s not just healthy but also super satisfying. Each bite feels like a burst of flavor and nutrition. As for the salad, it’s a true winner! Fresh, crisp vegetables paired with a light and flavorful dressing make it so enjoyable. The ingredients are clearly high quality, and the portion size is just right. It’s the perfect choice for a light, healthy, and tasty meal. Highly recommend both if you’re looking for something fresh and nourishing!

So good we ate here each of the 3 days we were in Permuteran. Food is super fresh, drinks are delicious and the staff are friendly. We tried a variety of the bowls between us and also the chicken schnitzel burger, all were delicious. Lots of gluten free and vegetarian options too!

This place is the best we have had in Bali. Karin, the part-owner, is so kind! The food was delicious. We stayed in Pemuteran for 5 days and ate here 8 times. One of the best parts about the menu is that they cook high quality classic Balinese and other food from around the world. A great variety to choose from! The atmosphere is also amazing, and we loved coming to the Sage every day of our visit.

Pemuteran is the north west village that punches above its weight with culinary/food quality. I have not had a bad meal in this town. I’ve tried at least half a dozen places so far, and everyone is putting love and care into the preparation and presentation of the meals they are serving, from the small Warungs to the western style restaurants. And in spotless venues. The Sage particularly is world class standard, for westerner focused cuisine. Not just good food, but great food. In my home town of Sydney Australia, a place as good as The Sage would get rave reviews. Order anything you want off the menu, you will not be disappointed. Also, they can home deliver, if you call them via WhatsApp. They’re really quick and efficient.
