Edelweiss Homestay

Relaxed vibe and nice room. Was here last year as well and really like it.

The property is close to main street so it’s in a good location

They only accept cash and they don’t communicate that until the day of check in. Pretty inconvenient and shady to not communicate that ahead of time. If you think the free breakfast is a nice perk forget it. It takes close to an hour to cut some fruit and make an omelette. Two mornings I had to go back to the front and ask where the breakfast was that I ordered over an again just to find out no one was even cooking in the kitchen. I told them to not bother because I had a surf lesson. I came back from the surf lesson in the afternoon and there was a plate of food outside my room completely wasted and covered in bugs. I wish they didn’t waste the food but their English is not good and didn’t understand when I said don’t make it.

El personal es muy amable

El estado del hospedaje en general es muy distinto al de las fotos. Todo esta mal mantenido y viejo.

Muy lindo el baño, la zona de la pileta y el desayuno bastante completo.

No me gusto que se pague solo cash y las almohadas y el colchon no eran muy comodas

Friendly staff. Swimming pool is nice. Water, coffee and tea set up outside to use. Airconditioning working well. Bathroom outside is cute The banana pancakes were the best

Gravel road to property a bit difficult to walk. Builders busy at adjacent block (not their fault) Very old beds with very hard mattresses (2 single beds). No TV

Amazing breakfast the banana pancakes were the best I’ve ever had :)

It would be good if they had bikes to rent

The stay was very nice, and the people who owned the place were a very cute family. The breakfast was lovely, and it was such a nice touch that they brought it to the room in the morning. The coffee wasn’t great, but personally, I just can’t drink filter coffee haha. Still, the whole breakfast was free and clearly made with a lot of love and care, so no complaints there. In general, the whole place felt a little bit like a peaceful oasis. The beds were comfortable, the room was spacious, and everything was clean.

When I say clean, I mean clean enough. I think in Southeast Asia you can’t expect everything to be perfectly spotless. The bathroom is partially outdoors, so it’s normal to see a bit of outside life in there as well.

The family were extremely friendly and helpful and I extended my stay twice. You have a choice of breakfast every morning. I loved the aspect of the outdoor bathroom and shower, just be warned about the mosquitoes in the rooms.

The rooms were very basic, I don’t sleep very well with only a sheet (would have been nice to have a thicker duvet as well). There was construction next door which was often loud in the mornings. I unfortunately didn’t use the pool as it wasn’t very inviting didn’t look very clean. Due to the mosquitoes in the room it would also be nice to have a mosquito net around the bed. During my stay for six nights I also didn’t have my room cleaned once (I didn’t ask so they might’ve offered if I had asked) but I would have maybe expected a room cleaned once or twice.
