Guests can have a drink at the bar. Loyal Friend (Jawe) Hostel - is a simple stroll from the ferry terminal, and you are warmly greatest on arrival (The reception is towards the back of the hostel). So far, we've used the motorbikes to venture around the island and soak in the Karimunjawa vibes. We were directed to the evening markets, where we at local and fresh, whilst entertained by the local fanfare. We've used the hostel snorkels and masks, though Jawe has also managed to book us onto scuba and snorkelling trips. Breakfast is between 730 and 10am - and alternates between sweet and savoury each day. Yummy - and a good amount. Water, Tea and Kopi readily available. Sitting on the sundeck you are reminded - it's nice to be important, but important to be nice. What a lovely little spot.

A selection of options including pancakes and fruits is available for the à la carte breakfast. The family-friendly restaurant at the guest house specialises in American cuisine, and is open for dinner and lunch. We had a wonderful stay. The villa was super clean, breakfast was very good, the property looks beautiful and the staff was amazing. Asty & Fayra were the best hosts ever, so friendly and helpful! The stargazing tour was super interesting and we learned so much. It was very special to look at the moon and the stars, thanks again Fayra (sorry if misspelled..) Highly reccomend this place to anyone looking to stay on Karimunjawa.

Also, free cold water and coffee in the morning. It's a pity very little people come to spend a night in Borobudur. It's a very cute town and you can have nice walks in the rice fields just behind the temple or going towards the Chicken Church.
