Sandflies Pantai Tanjung Batu Far away from the beach and town. So you need a car or bicycle. Free bicycles, but they had to be repaired.  The Indonesian houskeeper was very reluctant to do the repair. She always said: "It's ok!", it took 1 day, the repair itself only 10 minutes. She was also reluctant to give my a lock and a helmet, although its mandatory. No information about the area and the beaches provided. One day very aggresive sand flies on the Tanjung Batu Beach. I got 100 bites in 5 minutes, itching for days! Be careful and wear long trousers!

Voices of monkeys and roosters.

I liked everything. Thought the place is far away from the city centre but owners organised transport with very competitive prices. I was picked up from the airport and also brought to the ferry terminal for free. I really appreciate it. The food was awesome, every day different and delicious. Yani, the house keeper helped in all the ways she could and even how she wasn't able. Thank you for the happy time 😊

Thanks Yani for taking care but worst communication and marketing team.

Yani make my stay comfortable, she's is the best for taking care the guess, attentive, always have care like you're part of the family and breakfast is always ready infront of my door like a fam member haha. I can't believe she's doing all the things from hospitality, making breakfast, cleaning the bed, and front desk that's insane job, a all in one job, hopefully she paid well and got bonus this christmas and well compensated. She make my relaxing and feel at home. Kudos to her dedication making guess happy and feel at home. 🙌

Ideal as an overnight stay before or after taking the ferry to Pulau Labuan (Malaysia)

Location nearby the ferry to Pulau Labuan (Malaysia) - 1 km. This was the main reason to choose for this homestay, which is located about 30 minutes driving from the city center of BSB. Very friendly staff, offering us free pick-up at the city center, and free transfer to the ferry and forseeing us breakfast early in the morning.

Cosy homestay, but not a great location.

Nice, clean little home stay, with a lovely Indonesian lady running it(for another owner). Mainly occupied by people attending the dive centre. Kids love the cats. Light breakfast served at your prefferred time every day(try the Roti, its really good). A few local restaurants with great food nearby, and a small marked with all you need close. They can arrange tours and trips for you if you dont like to explore for yourself.
