Beaches closeby were not that nice. Had to take the car to get to beautiful locations. However close to the city center and some nice restaurants.

Very Cosy place. Nice guide to show you beautiful locations and take you on some cool day trips.

The shared bathroom is dirty and full of mosquitoes. Also the bedsheets are quite standard

Very friendly staff who helped us booking some day trips and provided us some sport gear for free + nice breakfast

The location is a bit further out of town. Also the English of the staff was not so good The toilet could not be locked even though is was to share with other people

The house and garden itself were very cute and well maintained. Also the breakfast was very good, and the staff is kind

The breakfast was really good, and the decor was nice too.

The stray cat eating my breakfast although which was my own fault since I was too tired to wake up. The wonderful family who owns the homestay, made me a fresh breakfast only when they saw me leave my room at 11:00 (more like lunch at that time of day) When he gave it to me he said "for you miss, it's fresh", I took it and the food was clearly freshly made since the box was still hot. NOTHING I DID NOT LIKE!

It is relaxing and tranquil. Close enough to the city but far enough away you don't hear the busyness and cars at night. As a female solo traveller I felt very safe here! They close the gate at night The other guests were also friendly and kind. I was early morning arriving by train I asked for an Early check-in but the other guests in the room didn't leave yet which is totally acceptable. I told her that I was around in the area if there was any possibility to arrive before 14:00 to just send me a message. Message me saying the guests have not checked out yet, it could only be ready around 14:00. Around 7:30 she said the previous guests have left. Before 8:30 I received a message that the room was ready for me to check in. Upon my arrival I had many questions and everything was answered and suggestions were provided based on what I was looking for. There is filtered water :D I hate constantly wasting plastic so being able to refill my bottle feels like a luxury. Free coffee and tea all day and every day. There is a fridge with bottled water, drinks and beer for purchase as long as they have it in stock. Breakfast is included but due to my long journey I slept through it... When I did get up around 11:30 they still had a fresh hot breakfast for me. She said they made it earlier but a stray cat ate it and they made me another. I didn't even expect to have it since it was my choice to sleep through it. BEYOND ACCOMMODATING!!!

The hotel is much better than my imagine. I can walk to the seashore by foot only few minutes. The hotel not big, but like a mini garden with fountains. I ordered and hostess cooked special seafood for me. Surely I will come again if I go Banyuwangi next time.

Only comment - bring bug spray! No reflection on the hotel at all, it's incredibly clean, but it's just a buggy area.

We had a wonderful stay here! Johan, the owner is incredibly friendly and helpful, and we got on brilliantly. All the activities he organised for us were great, the place itself is beautiful, the bed comfortable, etc, and we felt welcome to use the kitchen space.

Very nice staff. Actually we just planned to have a place to sleep before our Ijen hiking. We left at 2am returned to hostel at 11 am, so we didn’t expect that we could have breakfast and even have a Power Nap after Ijen hiking. All in all. Very hospitality and comfortable stay for trip before Ijen.

Nothing :)

Staff were so friendly and helpful. Room was great value for money. The bathroom is shared which is okay, it is kept very clean. Great location for climbing ijen too and restaurants not too far away.

The room was small and the bed was not good.. but overall, the surrounding neighborhood was very depressing. The shower didn't work very well and there was air refresheners that had a terrible smell.. We got some green bread for breakfast, I'm not sure it was included. If it wasn't, it was sweet we got something. If it was, it wasn't quite a wonderful breakfast.. I was sick at the time, but this place was unfortunately a very bad place to recover..

The host was super superand helpful and all the plants she had were giving the place a real good touch. Aircon worked fine.

More fields and trash burning next to the building. Ugh! No bathrooms in the rooms.

Unfortunately, we were offered double price for a taxi. I think it is not the hotel issue, they just passed the information. If you want to organise a taxi or other services do it yourself.

The receptionist lady was really nice although did not speak English. She tried to help up a few times with booking a taxi and scooter. She gave us free bananas for the road. No noise from outside.

Our journey to the Tropical Paradiso was wonderful, thanks a lot!! Our host was incredibly nice with us, and cooked us some delicious breakfast every mornings (especially the pancakes 🤩), and the place is very clean and calm. It’s the perfect place to stay a couple days before reaching Bali ! Again, thank you for everything 🙏🏼 Lucas

The rooms are extremely small especially for men, and the location is quite far (15' on foot) from the nearest warung / convenience store.

The staff were really helpful. They helped us to rent scooters. The place itself is co cute & clean, very well taken care of. We got simple yet delicious breakfast of fried noodles and fried rice. Wi-Fi worked perfectly.

Just FYI: The closest beach (black sand) within walking distance (could be absolutely adorable with a great view of Bali and a nice restaurant area, but unfortunately the beach is not clean (there is a LOT of trash). :( We didn't feel very comfortable to swim or lounge for very long there, but we did go for a nice walk, met some locals, and had a nice meal by the water, regardless.

We LOVED our stay at Tropical Paradiso! Before we arrived we were several days in long transit, so this little spot provided us the perfect rest space. We even extended our stay because we were so comfortable and were not ready to leave (it's a quiet little green spot in the city). While we were there we were able to do our laundry, rent a scooter to Alas Purwo National Park, visit the local beach, and make the hike to Ijen crater. Breakfast was perfect...the setting adorable...everything was exactly what we needed. Thank you very much for the hospitality! We highly recommend this sweet little spot on the map. :)

Very tastefully decorated, warm, cozy and very clean and for almost a week I spent there I enjoyed delicious breakfast every morning and rides around stunning nature around Banyuwangi provided by my two hosts. I highly recommend it.
