Cinta Bahasa established for more than 8 years and they definitely help foreigners how to speak to locals in local manners! The curriculum is easy to understand and allows us to construct our own sentences with the help of Bahasa Indonesia's basic structure.
The environment is very nice, feels like home. You're allowed to use the fridge to store your snacks, coffee and tea corner and they have a garden to hang out at which sometimes turns to a classroom! Highly recommended.

Great experience learning at Cinta Bahasa - Ubud location.
Private 40 hour course with Satria, a fantastic teacher.
Lessons perfect, relaxed and engaged around conversations about topics of interest to me.
Would like to return to study further.

If you want to speak more than 'apa kabar' (how are you) and 'terima kasih' (thank you), come to this language school that offers variety of courses from crash course, group class, and private lessons. The school specialty is in teaching daily language starting from simple words that can help you to experience Indonesia in a deeper sense. Moreover, the teachers are always happy to answer any questions related to variety of topics from Indonesian history, how to bargain in the market, to what does the majority of Indonesians think about climate change. The school is around 20 minutes walk from Central Ubud. Did I mention earlier that they also provide free tea and coffee in school? Yay!!

A very well organized crash course in the Indonesian language run by two great teachers who have a nice, complimentary style and work very well together. We left with a solid foundation of pleasantries and a useful information packet we studied later. Learning the basics has allowed us to more easily befriend our Balinesian hosts.

I used audio courses to study Bahasa Indonesia for nearly eight months prior to commencing lessons via Skype with Cinta bahasa. The difference in my language skills between starting with them and now is immense. My teacher, Daniel, is excellent and I can't recommend him or the school itself highly enough. The course was tailored to my own needs, the content was interesting and delivered well, the language I learnt was the language as lived and used in modern Indonesia and I learnt a lot about the culture of Indonesia at the same time. As requested, the focus was on a working knowledge of the language as spoken by people I was likely to meet, not language that would be used by a news reader (although the option is there to learn such language should one so desire)
Top notch, and much appreciated.

I have retired to live in Bali and I am staying in Sanur, close to the Sanur Space, where Cinta Bahasa holds classes. I first took a course with a group of other students and now I am having private lessons with my lovely teacher, Trias. The friendliness and professionalism of all the staff makes learning with Cinta Bahasa a pleasure. I cannot recommend their services highly enough. Charles Tyler.

I had a week of intensive lessons one on one. The teacher, Trias, was excellent and it significantly improved my self-taught Indonesian. It was particularly useful to be able to ask about specific expressions and colloquialisms which online and CD lessons don't address. It was great to have a lesson in the morning and then go out and practice what I'd learnt during the rest of the day, and then come back with more questions for the next lesson! It was very convenient too, as the teacher came to my hotel in Sanur.

Of course the results speak for themselves. I did a couple of Indonesian language courses at cintabahasa and the teaching method as well as the teachers are excellent. My Indonesian became quite good in a very short time.
Being a language manic I already learned several languages and had courses at many language schools. But cintabahasa language school is outstanding.
The best choice for sure to learn Indonesian in Bali, maybe in whole Indonesia. I highly recommend courses at this school. And there is also a lot of fun envolved doing the coureses with light-hearted and skilled teachers. What could be better than laughing and learning with ease a new language at the same time?
Thank you so much cintabahasa!

do you think they would work with me via skype prior to my arrival? Where did you stay?
Written December 22, 2015
Yes, they do. If you visit their website you will see that they have online classes and they encourage people to learn with them online before they arrive.
Ubud and Sanur are popular towns, there is a lot of accommodation nearby, from very cheap to very expensive
