What it was the best of the place was, absolutely Tety! She is an amazing woman full of good energy ready to share with her guests. We had a very special conexion and we felt exactly like if we were at home. She has a very nice wood house and a very nice garden where you can relax any time and feel like home. You can use the fridge to keep your cold drinks and she is ready to offer you what ever you need. I hope more people is as lucky as us that they get to know her. If we ever come back to Flores we will, for sure, come and visit her again.
Everything was perfect.
Tety ist ein Unikat der Insel. Die Unterkunft muss im Verhältnis zur Kultur und dem Preis gesetzt werden. Daher alles super.
Danke Tety 🙏
Alles. Total chillig und ruhig. Super nette Gastgeberin. Einfache, aber wirklich tolle Unterkunft. Süße Katzen 🐱

Very nice homestay in a neighborhood a little outside of the center of Labuan Bajo. Amazing host with charming cats and a very well taken care of and comfortable courtyard. We enjoyed delicious breakfast, Tety's helpful suggestions and long walks exploring the less touristic areas of Labuan Bajo. A great place to go if you want to see more than just the Harbour area and want to get an impression of life in a normal neighborhood.
Skvělé ubytování za příznivou cenu. Paní Tety je úžasná dáma a dobře se o nás starala. Pokoje jsou čisté a koupelna voňavá. I když je daleko do přístavu přímo v ubytování lze půjčit skůtr.
Jen studená sprcha.
Ci ha accolto Tety, una donna meravigliosa e accogliente. La nostra camera era pulita e il letto molto comodo. Si respira un’energia dolce in quella casa e siamo molto felici di aver conosciuto una bella persona come Tety. Grazie
Wir haben es dort wirklich genossen, absolut freundlich und haben sogar kurzfristig eine Tagestour gebucht für den Nationalpark.
Tety ist super lieb und Mega hilfsbereit. Die Unterkunft ist typisch indonesisch und einfach ein sehr authentisches Erlebnis. Volleyball spielen mit den Nachbarn war auch im Erlebnis mit dabei :)
Tety is gold!
That I couldn't bring the kitten to Amsterdam...
We spent 4 days with Tety. Everything was perfect. We can only confirm what other reviews have said: Tety is a wonderful person – super kind and helpful. She supports you with everything and gives excellent tips on where to go, what to do, etc.
The accommodation is perfect. It’s very, very clean, there’s plenty of storage space, two mirrors, and multiple power outlets. The Wi-Fi also worked very well.
Things you should know – but honestly, with so many positive aspects, these are really minor:
1. Since you're in the middle of the local neighborhood, roosters start crowing early in the morning.
2. The road to the apartment is a bit rough (but totally fine if you're comfortable riding a motorbike). And in the worst case, you can always park the bike and walk the last 50 meters on foot – it's flat.
But better nature sounds than scooter noise. And by Tety you will not hear any other noises than animals.
Tety was great and helped me book a boat tour and even pick out some local restaurants. I didn't realize she had lived in Florida for several years but explains her English skills. The stay was quiet and uneventful, they even picked me up at the airport so I didn't have to deal with the taxi's hunting for lost tourists!!! I wanted to visit the waterfalls and she found me a great deal on a car and driver. The round trip plus hiking time to visit the waterfalls was about 4 hours and the final costs was ~ $40 USD. In the USA it would of been $300 or $400 for that cab or Uber fare. I'll plan to stay here again the next time I visit.
Ibu Tety was very friendly. The main house has beautiful furniture. The terrace is nice and the cats are very friendly and cuddly. My room was large. When my son stored smelly squid in the fridge for fishing bait Ibu Tety had somebody clean the fridge (and asked only Rp 50.000 for it).
The neighbour turned on his music so loud, that the glass in the window rattled. Ibu Tety was not willing to go over together with us to complain, because she said it wouldn't make any difference. She had tried before. So my son and I had to go there alone twice and argue with the neighbour to turn it down. Both of us speak Indonesian. The second time the neighbour wanted to start a fight and was only held back by his son. I told her that the right way would be to complain to the RT, who works for the mayor, but she said that there was no point (without having tried it).
The road to the house is in such bad condition that we nearly had an accident and I hurt my leg badly. After that experience I rather walked the last bit.
Because of problems with the electricity we were only allowed to either use the shower or the air conditioning. So every time we wanted to use water from the tap or for the toilet/bidet we had to go outside and switch on the water pump before.
We had agreed on Rp. 200.000 for the gas, because we wanted to use the kitchen. However, in the end Ibu Tety asked for Rp. 500.000, because we had turned on the light and the ventilator in the kitchen and used the washing machine twice (with our own detergent).
The room where my son slept is tiny and has very little space to store clothes. I couldn't open the window in my room. When I arrived in my room there were still clothes from somebody else in the cupboard, and some stuff in the drawers of the writing table.
The bathroom was populated with lots of small grey beetles that crawled out of every nook and cranny. Ok, it is rainy season, and I had been living in Indonesia for years, so I know about the fauna there, but every time you wanted to take a shower I had to clean it first, otherwise I would have stepped on them.
Last not least: We had booked (and paid up front) for two weeks. Not once our bed sheets or towels were changed, nobody came in for cleaning.
The property is a little out of the centre so having a scooter to get around is ideal - it was quiet and peaceful but above all Tety is an amazing person, very helpful and knowledgeable - trust her to get the best for your needs
The accommodation was simple but comfortable with a clean shared bathroom - the walls are thin so not a lot of privacy with the adjoining room but not an issue for us as we were a group of 4
Her cats are absolutely gorgeous, including the little kittens and very well looked after
Tety is a caring and beautiful person - packed us breakfast for our boat trip and cooked us a delicious breakfast the next day which we had in the main house
The road for the last 50 metres to the property is in terrible condition and being a little out of town can be an issue but it wasn’t for us - no early morning mosque calling!!
Tety's stay is recommended 10/10!!!!
She is just the sweetest, funniest, most caring person.
She helps you out with every problem or concern that may occur! And you feel that she really does that by heart and with loving care!
The breakfast she cooked for us was filling and delicious.
She orders a high end scooter for you on demand, for a reasonable price and very quickly!
And she also offers a Taxi service herself, for example to the airport!
The room and bathroom were blinkingly clean, you would not find one piece of dust there!
And her cats also are so sweet and cute!
We would love to see Tety again sometime 🥰
Not one negative thing to mention here!!!!
The wooden villa is well maintained, and all the facilities are working well. The host Ibu Tety is an amazing person, very helpful, and she has 3 adorable cats. She made a super delicious Ayam rica2, and prepared our early bfast before we went for the boat trip. Laundry and motor rent available with affordable price.
I have no issue with the villa, just fyi for others, location is not in the city centre but the town itself is quite small, it's a short 10mins ride from the villa to the center. The rooster in the morning might be annoying but it's also good so you can wake up early and do outdoor activities. Don't miss the sunrise hike at Bukit Sylvia also 12mins ride.
Tety is wonderful! Amazing source of help for all things in and around Labuan Bajo. Laundry, scooter rental, contacts for boat trips, making dinner she can do it all!
Her lovely trio of cats made it even nicer. Also close to the mirror cave and local market. Good food in warungs nearby. The room was clean, spacious. Shower was warm, and had a proper shower cabin! AC worked well.
Bit farther away from LBJ centre but with a scooter it's max 10mins.
Tety was very helpful , the Cave's just a few minutes away.
