Pros:

Wunderschöne Anlage, sehr gepflegt, die b3ste airco die wir bisher hatten. Marco, der Eigentümer war super hilfsbereit, hat gute Tips und Infos gegeben und wir konnten auch Roller bei ihm mieten. Selbstgebackenes Brot war eine Spezialität seiner Frau und wir haben sogar eines mit auf den Weg bekommen. Wir wären gerne länger geblieben und empfehlen es gerne weiter.

Pros:

Very nice location (5 min walk from the harbour and the main street), beautiful garden and possibility to rent scooter and book activities directly at the hotel. Rooms were really clean and comfy. Tasty breakfast with lots of options.

Staff was super helpful and the communication with the hotel was perfect. They booked for us the ferry ticket at a competitive price.

We had a really nice stay !

Cons:

Only small inconvenience: not a lot of pressure in the shower and there was no space to store toiletry items in the bathroom.

Een aangenaam verblijf en voor herhaling vatbaar!
Pros:

Het ontbijt was uitstekend. Er was keuze uit pancakes, zuurdesembrood, nasi rames, nasi goreng, mie goreng. Daarnaast vers fruit en uiteraard koffie en thee.
De gastheer en gastvrouw waren zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam en dat gold ook voor het personeel. Het hotel is goed gelegen in een rustige omgeving met eetgelegenheden op loopafstand. Een van de mooiere stranden is eveneens op loopafstand voor de geoefende wandelaar.

Cons:

Tijdens het regenseizoen zou het fijn zijn om een waterkoker op de kamer te hebben.

Geweldig!!
Pros:

We vonden ons verblijf hier (van 6 dagen) heerlijk: Goed ontbijt (met zelfgebakken brood), prettige omgeving, fijn personeel. Marco en Eryl zijn uitstekende hosts, ze hielpen ons met al onze verzoeken en vragen! De badkamer buiten vonden we heel erg leuk, ook al is het soms niet altijd praktisch. Absoluut het beste verblijf van onze trip in Indonesië. Een tip is om scooters te huren (dat kan bij Ayu) om het eiland te ontdekken.

Perfect.
Pros:

We love everything ! On a tout adoré, les hôtes, les conversations au petit déjeuner, le bungalow et sa douche extérieure, l’emplacement près du centre mais suffisamment à l’écart pour le calme. C’était parfait. On recommande les yeux fermés cet hôtel !
Merci :)

Cons:

Ras.

Alles super!

Pros:

Excellent séjour chez Ayu Hôtel !
Les chambres en bungalow sont confortables, avec une charmante salle de bain extérieure. Le jardin est très agréable.
Nous avons été très bien accueillies par Marco et Eryl, très serviables : avec eux tout est possible ! Et leur pain maison est délicieux :)
L’hôtel est proche du centre ville à pied (10/15min), et propose beaucoup d’activités : journée snorkelling, location de scooter, massages, etc. Nous avons tout testé et surtout, tout approuvé !

Cons:

Nous avons tout aimé

Pros:

Notre séjour a été enchanteur et nous avons eu mal au cœur de partir. Un grand MERCI à Marco pour son attention et ses conseils. Merci à son épouse et merci à tout le personnel. Tout est très propre et confortable. Des bungalows avec terrasse avec beaucoup de végétation. Marco nous a conseillé de faire une journee snorkeling et nous ne pouvons que la recommander: ce fut exceptionnel !!! L’emplacement de l’hôtel est certainement le meilleur de l’île car près du port, des warungs, de la place Alun Alun pour manger du poisson et même des langoustes ! La plage Karina Beach est juste parfaite. Vous pouvez louer un scooter à l’hôtel. Et que dire des massages de Nyma, un régal ! Un séjour inoubliable !

Great stay in karimumjawa
Pros:

Nice bungalow, clean, rubbers under the door for the insects. Great staff, owner Marco and his wife are very helpful with advice about the island, renting snorkeling equipment and a bike, arranging tickets for the boat and transport to next destination. Breakfast is great. Walking distance from the town. Comfortable bed and pillows. Free water refills.

Cons:

Bring earplugs as you might hear the mosque but this is everywhere since it is a muslim country

Pros:

Mooie, ruime kamer, die iedere dag werd schoongemaakt. Ontzettend lieve gastvrouw/gastheer, die van alles wilden regelen en zelfs nog een ontbijtpakketje hadden gemaakt voor ons vroege vertrek.
