Super host, Bobby was always available and reachable to make our stay perfect (scooter, visits, driver from a city tour, etc.). The entire team was extremely friendly and made us feel at home. Great breakfast, swimming pool and panorama from the garden.

A beautiful home and the sweetest family! I had such a relaxing stay here. The house looks exactly like it does in the pictures; cozy, clean and full of charm. Fajar, the host, is absolutely wonderful. He showed us some of the best spots in Wonosobo and the surrounding Dieng area. He is a great guide, super friendly, and happy to answer all your questions. Breakfast was also a highlight; varied, delicious, and a nice way to try local Wonosobo and Indonesian specialities. It felt so welcome and I would definitely come back! :)

This place has a lot of potential but unfortunately I happened to be the only guest during my one night stay. There is well functioning air conditioning and the toilets are really clean and spacious. The beds are really well designed and come with individual lockers, small table, socket and personal lamp. The hostel is located right opposite the entrance of Borobodour, and the staff have useful budget transport advice.

Quiet but central wooden huts. Breakfast (we were the only guests but got a very good cappuchino and traditional Indonesian rice free breakfast. Very helpful were free bicycles to the Borobodur temple area entrance which is now no longer a short walking distance, but has been recently moved a 20-30 walk away. Important about Borobodur under the new regime: Make sure you book online ahead of time the „structural tour“ with roof access. Without it you will likely be disappointed.

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

I loved the nostalgic vibes reminiscent of old Solo and the cozy atmosphere. The Wi-Fi was fast and convenient. The facilities were complete, everything was there from fridge, water dispenser and also clothing iron. Totally would recommend this home stay to my family and friends.

Very nice homestay, with excellent owners who were very accommodating and helpful during my stay. Excellent tradition local breakfast every day, they were helpful with lending me a scooter to visit Borobudur . It was a peaceful village outside the main tourist attraction surrounded by rice fields and vegetables farms. They even took me to a local tofu facility to see how they produced some excellent soy. They made me feel like it was my home also, can’t say enough about their kindness.

A homey homestay with aesthetic design remind me of greek building. The owner very kind and informative. The staff also nice and responsive. Definitely will go back :) Behind this building there is a beach, you can easily access it. It will be great if there is sign for a place to check in/receptionist desk, so the guests not that confused to do check in. Overall I will recommend this place to spend your summer holiday far from city noise.

Will absolutely recommend this wonderful Homestay! The family is extremely welcoming and hospitable. Wibowo is open and helpful, he gave us useful advices regarding the sightseeing (he even drew us a map as to how to get to the best spot to see the sunrise). The room is very clean, comfortable and had all the facilities for a comfortable stay. Special thanks for the food — it was so good!

The best part of Efata Homestay cannot be seen in any photo or description. It is the big heart and the great hospitality of the hosts. It was a great stay with a very clean room and we would have loved to stay longer. I recommend everyone to stay several nights and also to explore the area. I can only recommend the accommodation to anyone who would like to stay in a lovely, authentic homestay.

I had a great stay at Griyo Jagalan. Friendly Mr Berman and his mum take good care of the room. It was very clean and comfortable. It is homestay in a little fruit orchard. I didn't see any mosquitoes. This is the nearest homestay to the main gate of Borobudur. Yes. NEAREST.

Couldn’t recommend this homestay enough, the people are so friendly and help with everything, from renting and showing you how to ride a scooter to booking you the ferry back. The view is amazing and breakfast was great👍
