Basabasi Island Lodge

Clean and cozy room and bathroom, delicious breakfast and amazingly friendly owners! Great experience!

We loved Basa Basi Lodge, the hut and facilities were beautiful and we got a lovely free breakfast every morning. Redy and Fleur were the best hosts, they made us feel at home and made sure we had everything we needed. We were able to rent scooters from them and also book a snorkelling tour which was amazing! Couldn’t recommend this place more

When you feel like you need to rest for a little while and do everything in a very slow pace, then book here. At Basa Basi we've had a very peaceful base to sleep, leave our personal belongings and to get to know the island better. Everything is well organized here. The very new family who runs this place, owns all our respect. With their 5 months old two little twins, they were so open and very easy to communicate with. Fleur and Redy are here to help you with all your needs. Super wonderful hosts. They are working together with their island based team to make your stay very comfortable. At this place you can rent a scooter, have a wonderful sleep in a quiet, dark(!) teepee, have your own cold shower and toilet. It's basic, but clean and unique. Every morning there's breakfast for you and after that you can explore the island. The island is very very quiet at the moment (nov 2022). Beaches are around the corner and if you are not scared to drive a scooter by yourself everything is easy reachable.

We would have liked it if there was an option to sit in a chair around the teepee. Also a 'kapstok', a little shelf for personal belongings would be nice, but can't blame them as they are young starters.

Breakfast is amazing, the place is you re feeling at home, super cosy. Fleur, Rady and their family are super host and super helpfull for everything. We will come back for sure.

The bedroom is amazing, simple and comfortable. The bathroom is really clean and if you need anything you have all the facilities with them, the staff was very nice with us. Breakfast every morning so yummy 😋

Comfy room. Beautiful homestay. Breakfast was great (good coffee , eggselent scrambled eggs, great pancakes, fresh fruit and homemade jam). Room was comfy, not hot. Good quality fan. Helpful staff

The hospitable atmosphere started when the staff was waiting at the harbor to pick us up. When we arrived at the accommodation the owner was waiting for us with a cold drink (which was very nice after such a long journey), and the owner told us a bit about the accommodation and the island. The accommodation itself was, just like the restaurant area, very beautiful. It felt like a cosy camping spot, but with the luxury facilities. The owners offered to do a barbecue with them and friends of them, which was delicious and a good way to get to know more about the island. They also arranged a lot for us, such as motorbikes, snorkeling trips and transport. Overall a very unique experience which I would definitely recommend to friends and family.

What shall we say, this was easily one of our best stays in Java. The Lodge is beautiful, the staff is very kind and helpful and the island is a paradise. The private bathroom is very nice and clean, as is your private room. The breakfast is made freshly every morning and very yummy. Best pancakes always with fresh fruits. If you not only want to have a nice time in Karimunjawa but also want to get to know the culture and the people of the island, I can warmly advise you to stay at this beautiful lodge! If you want to do some kind of activity(snorkeling, eating seafood, daytrips…) or have any problem the hosts easily arrange everything and are always there for help. They also rent scooters. Mosquitos are no problem, the hosts will help you with this. Moreover, transport to and from the Harbour was arranged by the hosts.

Great host & location! The little hut is really cute to stay. The big one is more then amazing!

Just a little tip: In the little hut was no mosquito net, which would be nice and more comfortable to sleep, since there are a lot of them.
