“Perfectly suited our needs :)”
+Lovely simple homestay a bit outside the main drag of Ruteng. I imagine it’s very peaceful although when we stayed there were celebrations going on all around for communions - can’t be helped and owner Peter was apologetic and we still slept well. Ruteng is so cold at night but the beds were lovely and cosy with thick blankets. So nice and clean. Yummy breakfast too and coffee! So glad to support a local business. Should I return to Ruteng, I would easily choose to stay here again. Terima kasih 🙏
−All good! Make sure you have a scooter though. And are good at driving it - the road isn’t great

“Quiet and pleasant stop in Ruteng”
+Clean and good space for our family of 4 for our stop in Ruteng. Lovely family.
−It wasn’t an issue for us because we had a driver, but the home stay is a fair distance from the centre of town.

“Great stay to experience local life”
+We enjoyed our stay here. Whilst the accommodation is basic it is comfortable enough, breakfast was very nice and the family are extremely welcoming and friendly. Make sure you go on the small local walking tour they offer! We had an amazing day being shown around the local spider rice fields, and traditional village. Our guides explained everything really well and it was amazing to get such an insight into traditional Manggarai life. We were even invited to eat lunch with the village, helped them repair their roads and took part in a volleyball game! Unique local experience and really worthwhile

“Très bien”
+Hôte très gentil et prévenant. Nous sommes resté uniquement une journée mais avons pu louer un scooter et visiter les rizières aux alentours. La chambre était simple mais confortable, bénéficiait de l'eau chaude et d'un petit déjeuner. Rapport qualité prix très ok.

“Fijne homestay vlakbij de rijstvelden.”
+De Homestay ligt op een steenworp afstand van de rijstvelden. Peter nam ons met zonsopgang mee, dat was prachtig. Het ontbijt was heerlijk! Hele lieve mensen.

+Grande ospitalità e cordialità dei proprietari. Il proprietario parla molto bene inglese e sua moglie ha preparato un’ottima colazione (panino farcito super!). La stanza è semplice ma funzionale. Location tranquilla immersa nel verde. Come altre homestay la doccia non ha acqua calda ma il proprietario la scalda all’occorrenza. Rapporto qualità/prezzo eccezionale!

+Lieve mensen, schone kamers, liefdevol ontbijtje. Peter en zijn vrouw bouwen hun homestay langzaam met liefde uit. Wordt steeds comfortabeler.
−Helaas nog een koude douche, maar daar komt snel verandering in. En het ligt wat afgelegen. Oordoppen mee voor de hanen 🤣

“Prachtig plekje vanwaar je zo de prachtige rijstvelden inloopt”
+De locatie prachtig. Op een paar minuten loopafstand je zo de rijstvelden in met prachtige uitzichten, ook op de spiderwebrijstvelden. Peter neemt je 's ochtends om 06uur mee voor een schitterende zonsopgang. En laat de koffie, kruidnagels en vele andere gewassen zien. Het was een magische ochtendwandeling.
−Onze kamer was prima. De kamer van onze dochters had geen raam en een beetje een geur. Nog steeds wel prima en schoon maar gewoon een bed en klaar. Die ene kamer is dus behoorlijk basic. Maar onze kamer was prima. Wel is er zowel binnen als buiten een goed plekje om te zitten.

“Magico, un’esperienza autentica”
+Ospitalità eccezionale di peter e della sua famiglia. Abbiamo visitato le risaie all’alba con lui e assaggiato (e tostato!) le varietà di caffè che lui stesso coltiva in un posto magico. Assolutamente consigliato
−Non c’è acqua calda ma è un problema piuttosto comune a ruteng e in generale nella flores interna, lui è disponibile e riscalda l’acqua al bisogno e si sta attrezzando per dotare la struttura di acqua calda

“Un incroyable séjour !!!!!”
+Absolument tout ! L’accueil est incroyablement généreux, les équipements sont de très bonne qualité, un bon petit déjeuner. En voyage très souvent en Homestay et là, sincèrement, c’est un des meilleurs où nous avons été ! Peter est adorable et il travaille avec deux guides locaux, Venan et Frederik, qui sont incroyablement compétents. On a passé trois jours avec eux, à être guidés dans différents endroits de la région, à passer du temps dans le village à échanger sur nos vies, à rigoler, à faire du karaoké ! Un incroyable séjour et on était triste de partir ce matin. On espère revenir un jour !!!
−Rien, tout était génial.
