“Green, remote, simple living”

My partner and I loved staying here! It’s in a beautiful little town, perfect little getaway and not far from Jakarta. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony looking over the fields, walking to the stunning waterfall and hanging out with the children on the football pitch on the weekend. It’s a wonderful spot to watch the day go by and not be in a rush. We managed to find a driver in Bogor to take us there and on our return we took the angkot (local bus) which cost us roughly 70rp. The hosts were very friendly and you can easily ask them for anything you need.

Place Ambiance

Owner is fantastic and the place is as advertised, which is quite basic but that's what I expected. They organised an excursion for me and we're very accommodating, polite, reasonable when changes needed to be made.

The room that I was offered has absolutely beautiful scenic views. The bed is nice and spacious. It was a nice experience waking up to terraced rice fields and smelling the fresh air of nature. The hostel owner was really friendly and helpful. They also offered trekking tour package to volcano nearby and pick-up transport, which surely enrich the experience of homestay.

The location is near to the hot spring water, by walking distance only. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Ibu's bakwan and pisang goreng are the best.

I liked being part of the indonesian culture, surroundings and facilities. There is a normal toilet, that dissapointed me. I wanted the 'hole in the ground'. The food was questioned if you wanted any. Payed by the dish, no problem. The staff is very helpful in all sorts of way. The owner speaks Dutch which can come very handy. I liked being there. A lot.

“Would highly HIGHLY recommend to anyone visiting West Java who wants to get away from the traditional tourist hotspots a”

The location is phenomenal, right on Mount Salak, only a 1.5/2 hour journey from Bogor. Facilities were very clean and views were amazing. The host Rachman (absolute G), his lovely wife and sons are extremely welcoming, generous and fun; they really know how to make their guests feel at home and provided us with lots of activities to do in the surrounding area such as the Hot Springs, waterfalls, fishing, cooking, and hikes up the mountain (guided by Rachman’s sons).

Beautifull nature, view, swimming pool, tasty breakfast and dinner. Helpfull services that you can use (guided tours, borrow scooters, transport).
