Waiara Village Guesthouse

The accommodation is an excellent, quiet location just off the main road. The rooms are situated in a beautiful, impeccably maintained garden. It was simply wonderful to enjoy breakfast on the terrace each morning. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The accommodation was spotless and in excellent condition. The food was super, especially the fried fish for dinner. Whenever we had an extra request or needed information, we received prompt assistance. For example, they provided us with snorkeling equipment free of charge and arranged an affordable snorkeling trip with a local fisherman. It was a fantastic four-night stay. Thank you so much! Best regards, Michael from Germany and Novita from Surabaya

Cottage dans un petit jardin tropical avec une super terrasse pour se reposer, au calme et à 200 m de la plage. Bien équipé ( frigo) et propre . Bon accueil par Romane , disponible et très agréable.

Hier stimmt von vorne bis hinten einfach alles. Es ist komfortabel, sauber und wirklich schön gestaltet. Die Unterkunft liegt zwar ziemlich weit außerhalb von Maumere, wir haben das jedoch sehr genossen. Dadurch war es sehr ruhig und wir hatten ohnehin einen Roller. Einen Strand gibt es auch in nur wenigen Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen. Monica und Romana, die Besitzerin sind der wahnsinn und stehen jederzeit für Fragen zur Verfügung. Wir kamen relativ spät an und hungrig an. In Nullkommanichts zauberte uns Romana ein hervorragendes Mie Goreng. Das Essen ist generell extrem lecker. Man bekommt Frühstück und mit Bestellung auch Mittag- und Abendessen. Zu erwähnen ist, dass hierbei alles einzeln berechnet wird.

Einziger Kritikpunkt ist, dass die Unterkunft nicht beschildert ist. Dadurch ist sie sehr schwer zu finden. Sie liegt mitten in einem Wohnviertel und ist auch von außen nicht wirklich zu erkennen.

Comfortabel bed, Nice beeakfast, AC works really well, Friendly staff. Nice garden. Fan above the veranda.

They droogt to mention how to switch on the hot water, so first night we had cold sjouwer. Food for dinner is okay, not special. Price is good. Boat tour they can arrange was expensieve compared to arranging it yourself

Heerlijke kamer. Lieve eigenaresse en lekker ontbijt. Wij verbleven hier aangezien we de volgende dag vanaf maumere moesten vliegen. Deze locatie is daarvoor perfect en in de buurt.

After several months of traveling through Indonesia, arriving at Waiara Village Guesthouse initially felt like a dream come true. The property is truly beautiful — it has a wonderful garden, the villa is tastefully designed, clean, bright, spacious, and comfortably furnished. The bed was excellent, and the overall atmosphere was positive. Under normal circumstances, we would have really enjoyed our stay.

Unfortunately, it was impossible to sleep here. For several nights in a row, there was extremely loud music, shouting, and karaoke coming from right next to the property — lasting all night until around 7:30 in the morning (no exaggeration!) without a single break. Even my high-quality silicone earplugs couldn’t help; we were absolutely exhausted and sleep-deprived. I reported this issue multiple times to the host, who only replied that they didn’t know what was happening next door, offered no solution, and simply kept apologizing. I don’t believe a place like this can truly be called suitable for rest. In fact, we decided not to stay for the final night — instead, we booked a hotel room elsewhere just to get some sleep. I honestly feel sorry for the hosts — it’s clear they care about their villa and have put effort into maintaining it. But unfortunately, the surrounding environment (100% local neighborhood, noise, chaos, and poor cleanliness) makes it very difficult to recommend this place to travelers seeking peace and rest.
