エファタ ホームステイ (Efata Homestay)

部屋は清潔で、オーナーのイカさんファミリーはとても親切です。 電話をかけたい、パソコンを使いたいなど今時ないような特別なお願いでも、 一生懸命対応してくれました。とても居心地のよい滞在になりました。

ご夫婦と大変親切で、心温まるサービスが受け取ります。到着すると、美味しいスナック菓子とお茶を飲みなく近くのお店（レストラン）などを説明してもらえます。ビールが飲みたかったので、レストランやお店と値段まで教えてくださいました。また、自転車を貸していました、パオン寺院（工事中でした）、ムンドゥッ寺院まで行ってきました。でも、交通量が多い大変危険です。ボロブドゥール遺跡のサンライズを見て、4時15分に待ち合わせ車でマノハラホテルまで、遺跡の上の一番良い場所まで案内して頂きました。サンライズが見たい方は、絶対にお勧めします。宿は、WI-FIも繋がり、ホットシェアーも出ます、手作りの簡単な朝食もあります。お二人は英語のみで、日本語が話せませんが一生懸命 説明して頂きまししました。

早朝からボロブドゥール遺跡を見学するために利用。バスターミナルから遺跡へ向けて約５分歩くと、つきあたりにパダン料理店があり、すぐ右手が遺跡の正門。パダン料理店が見える位置から左折、１００メートルほど進んだ路地を入る。若夫婦と息子ひとりの家族経営、宿泊費は現地ルピアにて当日に支払う。朝食は簡素、帰りにはバスターミナルまでバイクで送り届けてくれた。ちなみに、ボロブドゥールの入場料金は２０１７年１月２６万ルピア、６月に再訪したとき３２万５千ルピアに値上げされていた。

ボロブドゥールのツアーの手配及び解説、周辺の観光案内、ローカルフードを取り入れた朝食、バイクでの送迎と、きめ細やかなサービスが魅力。お部屋も清潔です。蚊帳付きでした。 アザーンがうるさい旨のレビューが多いですが、私はそれ以上に、カエルか何かの変な声のお陰で全然眠れませんでした…。

とてもいいところでした。

Ika & his wife Yani, the owner of homestay are very friendly and provide lots of suggestions on attraction places to visit around with lots patient. They even help us to buy ticket for Waisak Lampion Event and Borobudur Sunrise just based on our sudden request, so touching! The simple breakfast is perfect matched local kuih-muih and fruits! Homestay really worth for its value and its location is very convenience to attractions, nice cafe and restaurant around with walkable distance! I love and do have pleasant stay in the house of the lovely couple! Thank you Ika & Yani! =)

Great service from the host. Nice room with affordable price. Love the personal tour to borobudur sunrise

5 mins walk to Borobudur Temple. The owner also prepared a sketch on nearby attraction which is very useful. Could cycle or bike around this town easily.

Ika is an extremely gracious, kind and knowledgeable host. He went above and beyond his duty to ensure that I had a very positive experience at both his home and sights around Yogyakarta. I highly recommend him and his establishment.

I will back to here again one day for sure :)

We arrived at Efata close to 9pm after a tiring day of adventure, and felt immediately refreshed by the warm hospitality from Ika and his wife. They were so kind and helpful, and provided all the info we needed quickly so we could settle in and have a good night's rest. Ika gave us really important tips on how to get the best experience in borobudur. 😉 he's really so nice to chat with, and goes the extra mile to assist whenever possible. It's great we could sleep in and take just 5-10 mins to walk to the borobudur entrance. The room is clean and comfortable with air conditioning, and breakfast was home-cooked and lovely. We were so happy to stay here because of the hosts' charming and genuine hospitality.

D way d host behaves is more than what one can expect. I ll choose dis place every time I come here ND refer t to all those I know

Ika and his wife were amazing hosts! We would stay here again in a second. The breakfast was delicious. The room was lovely and very clean. Ika drove us around and were were able to check out the countryside and play some Gamelan with a friend of his. He also took us to the temple in the morning before the big crowds. Great experience!!

The owner husband and wife are very nice. Kind owner, clean and comfortable room, nice breakfast, warm welcomed. As I was traveling alone (woman), I felt relieved very much when the wife and the son welcomed me. The owner arranged Borobudur sunrise tour and transportation for me. It was really nice and warm homestay. I traveled Indonesia for 26 days this time. Efata homestay is the best. I recommend and want to stay again.

The host is remarkably friendly and the insider's tips he gave me for touring Borobudur and Jogja were extremely useful. No wonder this accommodation receives the highest rating around. They have limited rooms to rent out - you're very lucky if you manage to secure their room for your stay near Borobudur.

Pro's: Helpful and friendly owners who provide clean comfortable rooms, breakfast, water and helpful information and all with a smile. Con's?: if you are a light sleeper, the mosque is very close so you get a very early wake up call.

Ika is a friendly host.After a long flight,what I need is just lay down.And he offer is more than that.

We had a great experience staying with Ika and his family. If you want a convenient location to visit Borobodur and have a home stay experience, Efata is the right choice! We like it so much that we would make it a point to revisit them if we are heading to Jogja in future.

Grand place to start near Borobudur. Basic facilities but maintained well. Owner Ika and his wife are very hospitable and careful about the needs of their guests. Ika drove me personally to the money changers and arranged the tickets of Borobudur for us at no extra cost. He also called his friend and arranged the car for Yogyakarta Via Mepari and Prambanan. With basic amenities it's a wonderful place to stay near the main attraction. Many hotels for food nearby. Pros- Near to Borobudur. Many places to eat. Helpful people. Cons- Wify signal isn't always good.

Everything was good. But room needs improvement.
