Reviews of Jelajah Batukaras 1 stars

This hotel was perfect for a few night stay in Batukaras. The owner Adi is really phenomenal. He went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable, and was able to change my room when the AC didn't work to my comfort. All of the staff are very friendly, even though I didn't speak the local language.

My only complaint was that the AC did not work very well in my hotel room. But Adi was able to change my room and I slept great after the switch. Thank you Adi!

It’s very central, close to warungs, you can walk there and near to the beach :) Adi and his family are very nice! I could rent a scooter for 60 per day and the room was fine! Very simple but all you need. Even a water dispenser was in the room!

Cold shower, but in the end wasn’t that bad because the weather is alwazy very humid so a cold shower is acutually good :)

Adi was such a great host with great communication and tips for the area. The location is right in town so you’re a 10 min walk to the surf break or 2 minute scooter, and even closer to most restaurants. We loved staying here for a week and wish we could have stayed longer!

The room was clean and very spacious, also the bathroom. There is place to cool and hang out. The family is very friendly !

The host is really helpful, friendly nice people and you can feel like home right away. Wide clean room, no bad smell on the toilet, water server in each room, and nice small chair outside to relax. if I need something you can even text him and he will arrange my request right away. Adi and your brother(I am sorry I forgot his name) ,Thanks for all that you've done for us even though it was very special period. I truly appreciate it!

The host is incredibly friendly and always ready to help with anything you need. The property is beautiful and the rooms are very clean. There’s also a small restaurant on-site where you can enjoy some tasty, simple dishes. I’ll definitely come back again. Best regards, The fisherman from Germany 🙋‍♂️

Location. Friendliness of the staff.

Jelajah homestay was great in many ways ! Adi and his family are some of the best hosts we have met, always ready to help and making sure you have everything you need. Adi's dad even got us a fresh coconut from the garden ! Adi organised our scooter (with surf rack), our transfer to the train station when we left, gave us informations about the area and where to explore, surf, eat... The room is affordable, spacious and comfortable with a nice private terrace. The place also has its own little supermarket and snack restaurant. It is 5 min walk to the beach and to many places to eat. We had originally booked for 2 nights and stayed almost 2 weeks, highly recommend !! Thanks again Adi and family for making us feel right at home, we hope to see you again !

The owner was extremely helpful! The place was clean and close to the beach

It’s close to a mosque, so the prayers woke me up

Clean, practical, and fabulous location. Staff were very friendly and went above and beyond.

Nothing

The nicest homestay we stayed in while travelling Indo. All the staff were so lovely and friendly, especially Adis father! He kept the grounds immaculate, was always hard at work with a lovely smile :) There is a little shop and kitchen attached to the property which is really handy. The room was spacious and clean with nice patio areas to sit outside. The price is a little more than our previous homestay in the area but it’s really worth it as the quality is great. Adi also organised a private car transfer to the train in Banjar for 600k. You can also rent a scooter for 50k per day. Would definitely recommend staying at Jelajah if you are in BK, we will be back for sure.

The wifi didn’t reach into our room but was fine outside. I think when booking the description said TV with streaming services but the we couldn’t get the TV on and I imagine it’s just cable anyway. Not that you need TV!! There was also a large gecko living in the roof in the bathroom and he would poop onto the floor all the time and it really stunk out the whole room even when we washed it down the drain. It would be fine if it didn’t smell so bad!

Great location and staff, super clean too!

AD is so cool and really helpful for everything. You can rent scooter and go to the beach in 5 minutes. You can eat fresh cocos, the room are clean the AC is working. I will go back for sure

Nothing …

Great location. Host was super helpful and friendly sorted us a taxi and surf lesson ! Thank you

Lovely clean Homestay with nice garden area & patios. Friendly hosts. Big room with 2 beds and en-suite (cold shower only). Free drinking water in bedroom!! The host was able to arrange scooter rental for us & transport to Jakarta, both were very helpful! Would definitely recommend staying here!

Perfect stay. The room was comfortable and big, with 2 huge beds, air conditioning and a big water fountain. The bathroom was big and comfortable. The terrace is lovely and everyone in the place is friendly and very helpful. Adi helped us organise our taxis from Yakarta and to the airport, rent a motorbike, recommended place to eat local food and even helped us find a doctor when we needed one.

It was excelent. We have zero complains. :) If I had to say something maybe hot shower for after sunset surf session at night but it’s really not needed as the weather is hot.

Such a good place to stay in Batukaras! It’s a 5 minute ride from the beach and you can hire scooters through the guesthouse. Adi is a great host and can help arrange transport to and from the property. We had such an amazing time and will definitely stay again if we revisit Batukaras in the future.

Nothing - it was a great stay, our favourite place in Indonesia so far!
