Every room offers views of the sea and the mountain. Each en-suite bathroom includes a hot water, pressure shower, a flushing toilet, a sink and complimentary handmade shampoo and body wash. If I could give 1000🌟for this place I would. We spent here five amazing days. Beautiful bungalows with a balcony and view of the ocean where you can relax more than you can imagine. There is also a small chill zone where you can sit on a very comfortable pillow bags 😎 You can use their kayaks for free and go explore the beaches and corals around! Highly recommend it do it. You can also ask Tono (owner or the staff) to rent a scooter with you can go around the Island and explore it's beauty. You can eat here upon request or go to the town for nigh fish market as well. The staff Rama the cat Cora (she is part of the team) and especially Tono is an amazing people. We had a very nice long conversation with him in the late afternoons. Please note this place is for people who like to be on a remote and quiet place away from the people (no shops, no bar, etc.). The town is 15 min away by scooter so take it into consideration when booking this place. Be aware!!!!!!!! The more you stay the more you just do not want to leave... ❤️

44 Guest House Syariah

Purwokerto

Featuring mountain views, 44 Guest House Syariah features accommodation with balcony, around 21 km from Owabong. The property features city views and is 42 km from Mount Slamet. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk and parking on-site. Guesthouse 44 was my second home for a week in Purwokerto. The room was not spacious, but it had all necessary appliances and good air conditioning. A double room was just enough for my luggage, so I suggest if you travel with a partner, get a bigger room, the price is really affordable. The bathroom might surprise you, because it has no sink, just a shower, and no mirror, which is somewhat inconvenient. The room was sparkling clean, the bed sheets and the towels smelled amazing, it was regularly cleaned and supplied with bottled water every day. As a foreigner, you might get some special treatment, as the managers are really caring and put in a lot of effort to be of best service. The breakfast is abundant, if you don't like the local style, they'll prepare you some pancakes, omelette and steamed vegetables, so as to make sure you don't go out hungry. It is a good idea to bring some small present for the lady and her husband who run the hotel (they are about 60) - it will make their day. At their place you will surely feel as a part of a big family. Please bear in mind, that although the hotel is near the city center, you cannot walk in Purwokerto, since the streets are bustling with cars and motorcycles and there are no sidewalks for pedestrians. Walking is really dangerous, so better take a taxi. And speaking of taxies, I can recommend this nice young taxi driver in Jakarta, working for the Bluebird company, who speaks perfect English and is a very honest and helpful person: +62 852-1258-2235 (Willy). You may contact him on WhatsApp in advance, and he'll pick you up at the airport, without an extra fee. I had to bargain with many taxi drivers when I arrived in Jakarta in order to get an almost fair price, while this one trusts his meter, so no need to worry. Good luck with your adventure!

Nia Maretta House Syariah

Magelang

The guest house comes with a flat-screen TV. Housekeeping service is also available.

Malioboro Mall is 45 km from the guest house, while Yogyakarta Presidential Palace is 46 km away. The nearest airport is Adisutjipto Airport, 49 km from Nia Maretta House Syariah. In 10 days of traveling around Java I had not stayed in a place that was so nice to be inside. The room was terrifically clean, the size ample, the air conditioner worked well, there was hot water, and a nice porch out front. My only suggestion would be to place a wall mounted electric fan on the front porch so that guests can be outside more comfortably
