Asta Homestay

“Pleasant stay in Karimun town”

The room and bathroom were spotless, and the owner and staff were very friendly. Renting a motorbike here feels safe for beginners, especially after living in Indonesia for a long time. The common area offers endless coffee and tea, and a few minutes’ walk takes you to a fresh market (great cashews for sale), the port, three dive shops, various cafés and restaurants, and the town square. Breakfast was supposedly included, but it never appeared on the menu—perhaps it’s irregular because of Ramadan. The courtyard feels a bit grim, surrounded by high walls with only a patch of grass, which seems typical for homestays in the area. It’s also a stone’s throw from the main mosque, so the call to prayer is painfully loud.

“Ile Inoubliable, séjour très reposant”

The value for money is great, rooms are clean and pleasant, and we had a restful four‑night stay. The location is very convenient, and scooter travel is easy. The breakfast selection is limited, but there’s a street behind the hotel with plenty of nice restaurants.

The location is good, the patio is charming, there’s a water dispenser, and the cats are adorable. The bathroom is extremely basic: no washbasin, just a tap and a bucket, the shower handle doesn’t work, and there’s no hot water—only warm water from a tank that smells like a pond, making it unsafe for brushing teeth. There’s no soap, shampoo, or toilet paper, the AC struggles, and the fan is disgusting and barely creates any breeze.

“Quiétudes, douceur de vivre et beautés naturelles.”

This small hotel sits nicely in Karimunjawa’s town center, offering a typical Indonesian standard with staff who listen, accommodate, and always smile. Breakfast was always served on the outdoor table in front of the room. The hotel’s laundry service and taxi service were convenient. The only thing that might not appeal to everyone was the early‑morning muezzin call from the nearby minaret; the melody blended into our dreams and never fully woke us.
