Guest Reviews
- Catherine (9/5): - Heerlijke plek om te relaxen, mooie omgeving en heel vriendelijk personeel! Wij komen terug als we in Bira zijn!
- Rosebudvoiture (6/5): -
- Rosebudvoiture (6/5): - La vue mer. La gentillesse du personnel au petit restaurant. Ménage a faire quasi soi même. Insectes et fourmis très virulentes. Poubelle a vider soi même. Fermeture du restaurant a 19h. Propriétaire mécontent en cas d'avis défavorable et vous le fait savoir.espace chambre vue mer assez petit.
- Bruce (7/5): - Excellent views from my bungalow.
Helpful staff. The bungalows are getting old but good for now.
- Vlastimil (9/5): -
- Sebastian (7/5): -
- Saraswati Maulita (8/5): A Cozy Beach Getaway with a Few Wild Surprises! - Direct beach access 🏖️
Clean bathroom with shampoo & soap
Café with stunning beachfront view
Banana pancakes at breakfast are a must try! 🥞 Room is small with fan only
Café food is just average
Lots of insects sound at night + surprise gecko in the room 🦎
- Catherine Kirsty (8/5): Great place to stay, lovely view would recommend. - Great location. Friendly staff. Clean. No A/C available when we booked and I thought the fan would be ok, but it was really hot and humid and struggled to sleep.
- ashleigh (10/5): - friendly staff, spacious rooms, amazing view over looking the beach for brekkie each day and the included breakfast was so delicious, we were given options of omelette or pancakes and got a plate of fresh fruit. easy beach access too. location is great, not too far from the main part of town, only a few minutes by scooter but in a nice quite area. also within walking distance of more westernised resturants.
- Valentina (8/5): Bungalow e spiaggia da 10! - La parte dei bungalows è veramente bella e curata e anche il nostro bungalow era molto spazioso e pulito.
La vista dal ristorante e la spiaggia sono veramente eccezionali!
Una ragazza del ristorante (Ila) è stata gentilissima a prenotarci una public car per rientrare a Makassar. Da rivedere la parte ristorante.
La colazione niente di che e non ti invoglia a tornare per il pranzo e la cena.
Non è sicuramente paragonabile ai locali che sono a pochi passi da lì (dove hanno anche alloggi).
La colazione è fino alle 10, dopo il ristorante/bar chiude e riapre dalle 14 alle 20.
Non c'è reception, solo un ragazzo che non sempre è presente o puoi rivolgerti alle ragazze del bar.
Ho conversato con un responsabile solo tramite whatsapp.
Lo scooter a noleggio lo abbiamo preso nel locale accanto perché non hanno questo servizio.

- LIDIA (8/5): -
- MICHEL (10/5): - Sa position unique au dessus de la plage. Chambre avec vue sur mer
- Marina (7/5): Affascinante ma non adatto a lunghi soggiorni - La posizione con bellissima vista
Buona la colazione Camera davvero minuscola. Zero spazio x le valigie
Bagno messo male
- Nigel (10/5): -
- Koen (9/5): - De locatie en de hut zijn fantastisch: heel ontspannen, leuke toegang tot het strand en dicht bij Blue Planet Diving (aanrader!). Over het algemeen behulpzaam personeel. Bij aankomst waren er geen handdoeken en WC-papier. Na onze vraag werd dit snel opgelost.
Bestelling van eten werd niet genoteerd, waardoor twee van de vier gerechten niet juist waren. De tweede avond zat er niemand en werden we vriendelijk doorverwezen naar Tevana House (naast Cosmos). Na uitdrukkelijke vraag (Engels, half Indonesisch, betaalkaart getoond) om met de kaart te kunnen betalen, werd dit bevestigd. Toen er betaald moest worden, kon dit plots enkel cash (wat we op onze laatste dag niet meer voldoende hadden). Uiteindelijk op een andere manier kunnen betalen. Dit kan beter (ofwel met de kaart kunnen betalen, ofwel duidelijk aangeven dat enkel cash aanvaard wordt).
- Marco (8/5): Cosmos è una bolla gradevole in un contesto altrimenti degradato. - Bara è stato il nostro punto di arrivo dopo un itinerario faticoso lontano percorsi turistici.
L'ambiente nel complesso silenzioso, sicuro e confortevole e ha risposto alla nostra esigenza di riposo.
Ottima cucina con piccola zona ristorante ombreggiata a sbalzo sul mare. Delle varie strutture valutate adiacenti a Cosmos è sicuramente una delle più graziose ed accogliente.
Livello di pulizia adeguato e personale gentile e disponibile. Possiblità di ottenere facilmente scooters o barche a noleggio.
I Bungalows sono puliti, il nostro anche ampio.
Con l'alta marea si entra in acqua direttamente dalla scala del ristorante, con la bassa marea si arriva a dover percorrere più di 500 mt in 10-50 cm d'acqua dove, superate le onde, è possibile nuotare lungo lo slope della barriera dove si avvistano facilmente tartarughe, reef sharks e molti pesci di barriera. Alla sera bello godersi il tramonto passeggiando sulla sabbia...
Ottimo come punto di appoggio per accedere al blue planet diving dove fare splendide immersioni lungo le isole antistanti dimenticando la plastica.. Il primo bungalow è proprio a ridosso della strada che seppur poco frequentata alla sera è un pò rumorosa per il passaggio di scooter e auto. Manca un po' la figura di un responsabile di riferimento sul posto, rintracciabile comunque telefonicamente. Si potrebbe migliorare la proposta di attività extra...
- Anton Frantzen (9/5): - We had a wonderful stay at Cosmos. The views are amazing. Breakfast and dinner were really good. The cabins are cozy and decorated nicely. The mattress was not very good.
- ALI (7/5): - Nous avons apprécié le bungalow avec la vue sur la mer, tellement apaisant de s'allonger sur le transat sur la petite terrasse Nous avons payé trop cher pour ces prestations !
Les oreillers sont pleins d'humidité, les draps troués et vraiment usagers, il serait vraiment temps d'investir et de les changer.
Invasion de fourmis, merci au monsieur de l'accueil qui est venu les exterminer.
La douche mériterait un rafraîchissement
- Sylvain (8/5): - La vue incroyable depuis la chambre et depuis la terrasse
Le petit déjeuner et le resto sur place avec un bon rapport qualité-prix
Le calme du lieu L'absence de conseils pour les activités locales (pas de personnel en dehors du restaurant)
Absence d'eau chaude
- Petr (8/5): -
- Fabio (8/5): -
- Carlo (8/5): - Posizione idilliaca Ristorante con orari limitati.
- Riza (10/5): Amazing cliff beautiful sea color - Cliff side directly to the ocean, amazing
- Ferry (9/5): Amazing place! - Amazing place with fantastic staff who go out of their way to make your stay unforgettable! Nope
- Louise (9/5): Had a great stay - Great location and nice restaurant. Beautiful views. Hot. Better fan.
- Jenny (8/5): Very good -
- Viggo (9/5): Superb - Nice location, and my eggs for breakfast was just perfect! Also got good coctails in places in the vicinity.
- Marie (9/5): Superb - The view, the cute bungalow, the beautiful beach, the reef close by, the staff was nice. Cute and local place !
- Edward (9/5): Superb -
- Joanna (8/5): Very good - Its the best part of Bira coast. Spectaculary situated, white sand beaches plus a cliff. Cosmos bungaloves are a budget and basic option here. The other places are better but also twice as pricy. Good restaurants are in a walking distance. You can easyli arrange snorkling tour or diving course in Tevana next door. (We did both) . Its interesting to observe tides.
- Ju (9/5): Superb -
- Beth (10/5): Beautiful do not hesitate to book - Absolutely beautiful views from the restaurant. The sunsets are amazing. My bungalow was very nice and they cleaned, changed towels and gave water each day (if I wanted). Comfy bed and I liked the outdoor bathroom. Easy access to the water but need to go somewhere else if you want to sit in the sun on the beach. Everyone was friendly and the food was good. Good location just 5 min walk to blue planet dive resort (which was great for diving!) The bathroom lock from the inside wasn’t great and because it is outside it would be nice if it locked properly.
A bit of a walk into town (about 30 mins) but not a problem as such.
- Camille (10/5): Very nice stay for 2/3 days of snorkeling - Very nice bungalow with a beautiful view on the sea. The room is clean with a nice bed. The balcony is very enjoyable, with a hammock and a bench. The bathroom is big with good equipment. Restaurant has an amazing view, and dinner is delicious for very reasonable prices (beers are a bit expensive though), with many choices of fish and meat. Breakfast is good as well. Wooden stairs make it possible to « jump » to the water directly from the restaurant (it looks like there has been a beach at some point; but now you go inside water directly) and go swim and snorkel. The staff is nice and helps with transportation.
Note that there is a 25 minutes walk to reach the city center (if you need laundry for instance). But you can find water and small food around the hotel.
- Batmanismyjam (9/5): Superb - Beautiful area, great beach Nothing really, great value for money
- Maryna (10/5): Exceptional - Bungalow was very cozy. A little bit small, but very comfortable. The view was amazing.
- Isabela (10/5): Nice stay in Bira - Amazing view and clean place. The staff was so nice and add some papaya to our breakfast and give me some bananas for a snack. They organise a nice boat for us for the day and we had a great time
- Rianne (10/5): Perfect place for a beach getaway! - The bungalows are simple and very nicely decorated. The views are to die for. I loved the stairs straight down to the beach, the hammock on the veranda, simplicity, small scale and the overall value for money.
The food is yummy and the staff and owner very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
Also, check out the diving centre next door, GaiaOne Boutique diving. Nothing really, only that I couldn't stay longer.
Many stairs, not a problem for me at all, but good to know before booking in case that isn't your thing.
Transport back to Makassar was a bit of a nightmare, make sure to book a private car, the shared rides are not reliable.
- Suhaimi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Axel (7/5): Loved the location, the rooms met basic needs but no more. - Good breakfast, fit for purpose. The menu was poor and the restaurant could have been better equipped. The staff did well with what they had.
- Denise (10/5): Wonderful atmosphere in a beautiful location overlooking a gorgeous white sandy beach - Fantastic food really friendly helpful staff. We would definitely stay again
- Giorgio (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tosca (8/5): Beautiful view and beach - The location is beautiful. We loved the white beach and turquoise water that can be accessed directly from the restaurant - what a luxury. We were also super happy with our bungalow in the front row with view to the sea. The hammock on our little terrace added some extra coziness. The facilities are a little outdated and the restaurant would need a little renovation. For kids and people with handicap it could be difficult to walk up and down the stairs and ladder to the beach. Fortunately, it was fine for us but just thinking about if people were to come with small kids.
Be aware that there is no AC in the room, but only a fan.
- Zaidatul (5/5): view ia good. but need to improve with the cleanliness - view is perfect. good location. toilet is dirty and smelly
- Harmen (9/5): Superb -
