Great place, clean, excellent location right next to a mini super market, on the main road and opposite a really lovely bar and restaurant. The host Christian couldn't have been more helpful! I had an excellent night sleep. Breakfast was delicious and served in the restaurant opposite. All the staff were really friendly and I was able to organise boat trips with them. Karimunjawa is such a cool friendly place with a real chilled beach vibe. Thanks Christian, I will miss you guys!

He picked me up at the ferry, and even dropped me there on the last day though i had moved location during my stay (was planned before coming), also i came accross him several time on the island during my stay and it was always a pleasure to have some talks. Thank you so much 😃

At the hostel, rooms come with a terrace with a city view. All rooms are complete with a private bathroom and air conditioning, and some rooms also offer a balcony. At MOANA INN all rooms are fitted with bed linen and towels.

Rofiun and his family did everything to make our stay comfortable. There were toiletries available. The mountain view from the balcony was great. The breakfast each morning was delicious and fresh. Coffee, tea and multiple types of drinking water were available. They even cooked us a sea food dinner one night which rivaled the local night market, especially the homemade sambal! They also improved the internet connection while we were there which helped us do our work. Oh and Rofiun picked us up from the ferry was well so we didn't have to walk in the hot sun!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This hostel is one of the best hostels I have ever been. It‘s so cozy with all the different possibilities for seating places, plants, free coffee/tea/ water. There‘s also an amazing breakfast (selfmade bread with bruschetta and omlette 10/10) and the hostel stuff (thanks again to john, anned and eka) is the best! They do everything to make your stay comfortable and that the hostel becomes a second home. Extended my stay to 5 nights and still sad that I had to leave then. Will definitely come back!
