Relaxing Close to airport Wonderful staff

N/A

Clean, green and serene environment. Nearby airport and Dili city. Simple breakfast.

Except the hot water is not hot enough.

lovely staff, breakfast straightforward, great coffee, room large and well airconditioned, laundry beautifully cared for, handsome euro style floors and furniture. The hotel did a good job of calling taxis but it was a challenge to return home at night...

It's always a challenge avoiding gastro! probably needed a supply of daily bottled water as I wasn't confident that the water cooler water was "safe" for us...and mozzies can be worrisome. Hotel could offer loans of adaptors and mozzie zappers with pyrethrum mats or liquid... front porch could use an inexpensive fan and switch above the front door....transport to cbd and to Timor Plaza difficult to access.

Aircon available in bedrooms and sitting room. Kitchens have stove, fridge, some cutlery and utensils, some have microwave. I also had a small iron and board. Great laundry service. Plenty of free filtered water. Coffee sachets were undrinkable. I'm going back and hope they won't be there! No tea bags or milk provided. Shops are a reasonable walk away. You can buy supermarket and many variety items. Nothing traditionally Timorese though. Yomi has $20 very good one hour massages, other luxuries eg. Facials, Mani pedis all cheap. Pool was fabulous. STAFF ARE FANTASTIC!!!! Rolls and Bowls nearby provides food, drinks and sometimes live music. Wonderful and well kept extensive greenery. Large apartments can be long stay accommodation. And did I mention the staff are FANTASTIC

Instructions for foreignors are needed... to avoid damage to sewerage. DON'T FLUSH PAPER DOWN THE TOILET. Washing facility provided and paper towel used for drying needs to go in bin provided. I've started a 'library' of 1 or 2 novels. There's nowhere accessible to buy Englush reading materials (obviously not Malinamoc's job!) TV and wifi reception poor. Coffee sachets undrinkable Nearby microlet 11 will take you up to the main drag but coming back you have to walk down from the roundabout. Interesting going through local retail and markets.

The restaurant was lovely amongst the gardens and the staff were all lovely

Internet connection

Staff were excellent 🙏🏻. Beautiful property. Pool was nice.

Internet/WiFi at the hotel and throughout Timor is almost non-essential. If your travel relies on connectivity, be forewarned.

It was close to the airport and we got picked up from the hotel. They also gave us a ride to the city, which is a bit further away. The staff was very helpful with payment methods

The driver was unfriendly. The parking space is a mess.
