Sinuan homestay- Jabu 02

Très bel emplacement proche de la villa et de la mer. Personnel adorable, se met en quatre et court même pour solutionner les petits soucis… Petit déjeuner très bien préparé

Rapport qualité prix moyen… les chambres sont originales mais pas pratique. Une seule lumière, trop forte… une seule prise près du lit mais occupée par la climatisation… la douche avec très peu de débit n’a fonctionné que 2 x sur 4… il a fallu que la gardienne répare à chaque fois. Quelques insectes désagréables dans le « bungalow »…

Hut was nice, clean and AC worked fairly well. The two ladies working on site were nice and friendly, only one speaks english.

When I opened my hut it was full of mosquitoes, dog barking and woke me up every morning, dog actually bit me and is not well behaved at all, roosters were right beside the hut making it very difficult to sleep. No plumbing, and the shower basically didn't work, had to wash with a bucket. Plumbing was an easy 2 minute fix but didn't fix the plumbing issues, so they turned off the water instead.

Bungalow super sympa, propre, tranquille et confortable avec clim et petite terrasse. Il y a une cuisine partagé qui est très propre avec un frigo. Très bon petit déjeuner de Mona. Mona et Julia sont très sympas et attentionnés. Vous pouvez louer un scooter auprès d’elles 🙂

Sinuan Homestay consists of two separate huts within the same property. The bathroom is located a few steps away from the huts and has no sink. The shower is simple but water comes with little pressure so it is easier to use the mandi (please be water conscious). We loved our hut (Jabu 02). It was cosy and sufficiently spacious. The bed was very comfortable and the AC worked excellently. It was nice to have breakfast outside the little balcony. The area that faces the hut has loads of room to hang towels and laundry. The host lives in a house within the same property so she is very easy to contact in case of questions or requests. Alfiantitjuana (July) and her brother were extremely helpful and kind and always very discrete. It is easier to visit Morotai if you have a motorbike. The host can help you with this. She will also give you suggestions on what to visit (the WWII Museum is just 5min drive) and help with directions. The night we had to catch the boat from Morotai to Ternate (Queen Mary departing 8pm) July organised a private car to the port and came with us and helped to purchase tickets. The beach is right across Sinuan Homestay and there are a couple of cafès walking distance but most of the warung/restaurants are not walking distance. However if you need to buy water or snacks there is a little kiosk just outside the homestay. In case you need laundry the host will help with that too. The dogs were no problem at all. They barked (this is their "job") but were never aggressive in any way

The mosquitos were quite annoying so you'd better get organised with mosquito repellents. Also the property is not totally paved so if it rains you will need to avoid muddy areas. However this was just a minimal nuisance which was balanced by the positive experience we had on the whole. If we were to return to Morotai we would definitely stay at Sinuan Homestay again!
