Nothing, it was a good stay

We enjoyed our stay here, the room was clean and comfortable and the sunset view over the beach literally outside the door was stunning! The staff were SUPER helpful, they let my husband borrow their scooter to go to the shop and ATM, my son also left behind his rucksack and they scootered it to the harbour for us so we could collect it. They also helped us to book our tickets for Karimunjawa. They have a nice restaurant where you can get breakfast/lunch/dinner and also a beer (one of the few places along that beach you can buy one!). The included breakfast was good too.

Big room, 20 meters from the beach, very quiet, area with nice local people, Tenny who manages the place was very kind, helpful and spoke perfect English. The meals were traditional and delicious. Thanks for everything! 🙏🙏🙏

My stay at Omah Laut was genuinely memorable for several reasons. First and foremost, because of the host, Tenny—without doubt one of the most attentive and helpful hosts I’ve come across. She went far beyond the usual hospitality: helping me arrange transport, suggesting activities, assisting with bookings elsewhere, giving me a lift to the bus stop, even helping me shop for things I needed during my stay, and making sure the meals were adjusted to my dietary needs. Her good English also made communication easy, and we shared some very enjoyable conversations. Her husband was equally very kind and helpful. The rest of the staff deserve mention too—always friendly, respectful, and ready to assist anytime I needed. The homestay itself feels peaceful and authentic, set away from city noise in a quiet Javanese environment. The beach -literally one minute walk from my room- is beautiful, usually very quiet, and perfect for relaxing or enjoying the sunset—which was spectacular most evenings. I also made good use of the canoes and paddle boards, played some badminton… and there is a small pool too. Meals were another highlight. Breakfast offered a generous variety, and lunche and dinner I had there were fresh and really tasty. My room was just what I needed—spacious, comfortable, clean, with both air conditioning and a fan, hot water, and everything in good working order. I’m very grateful to Tenny and everyone at Omah Laut for making the stay smooth, welcoming, and relaxing.

If I ever felt at home on my trip, it was at this hotel. The owner, Tany, helped us with everything we needed, and we felt right at home. Not only did she help us, but she was extremely kind, accompanying us and introducing us to all the local people and fishermen. The entire hotel staff was wonderful and very, very friendly. I recommend this hotel 100%.

The supplemental rice portions in the restaurant could have been bigger.

The is quite shallow so the beach is safe for families with children. Also good price and great family rooms. Breakfast is delicious and the nature and trees are beautiful. I especially liked the style of the Restaurant and the beach canopy in traditional bamboo + dried coconut leaf roof, which gives it a very exotic atmosphere.

The only thing I didn’t like is that we couldn’t stay longer than four nights.

I loved every aspect of this nice hotel: location, beach, food, staff and the calm. Only a few hours after arriving at Omah Laut Bondo Jepara we decided to extend our stay. We’ve travelled a lot in Java but honestly didn’t know one could get away from the crowds and find something this nice at such an affordable price. We stayed in a large room with three big beds in an adjacent traditionally built building with a garden view. Nice sandy beach. Food is excellent, don’t hesitate to order something that is not on the menu! Very nice owners. We wish them all the best and hope to come back one day!

Very nice homestay right by the sea! The staff are super nice and helpful. The fish and prawns are extremely tasty (make sure that you try the padang sauce and sesame sauce). The room is very clean and comfortable. We also could use the Kajaks for free! Thank you very much for the amazing time!

The wood house yet somehow had a bit of an unpleasant odor, perhaps because of the materials that were not easy to clean. I think the ordinary hotel room looks cleaner and better.

Love the tranquility, it was perfect for a getaway from daily routine. Very private beach area, kids were so delighted. Staff were very polite and friendly. Would love to visit here again later.

The wifi was not the best. In case you need it make sure you have enough data on your simcard 😉

Wieslaw and Teny are some of the best hosts we met! Their guesthouse is lovely and it feels like in paradise. We extended our stay two times 😉 We had a room with seaview. You can hear the sea while sleeping, nothing else. Everything was basic but clean. The bed was very big and comfy and we had also hot water in the shower. The AC worked well and was quiet. The beach was clean und the sea shallow - perfect for children! As a special we saw bioluminescent alges. The guesthouse has an own restaurant where you can enjoy food and drinks the whole day. The included breakfast was international/indonesia and very good. Every day the lovely staff made it in a different way with different ingredients. Try Teny‘s homemade bread and the banana pancakes! We enjoyed our stay because it felt so familiar and if we needed any help Wieslaw and Teny were there! We would recommend Omah Laut (eng. = sea house) by heart and definitely will come back if we are around 🧡
