    Great place and a true homestay. Maria welcomed me with fresh papaya from the garden and I was invited to a simple family dinner. It is not a touristic spot at all and there is no much around, but you can go for a walk or just sit on the nice...

    Un moment de convivialité exceptionnel avec une attention toute particulière. Notre hôtesse nous a fait un repas inoubliable et Paul et son âmes sœur étaient vraiment aux petits soins.

    Lieve host die fijn voor ons heeft gekookt toen ze doorhad dat wij aan wat rust toe waren na het scooter rijden. Ook heel fijn dat ze meedacht met het behandelen van een schaafwond en zelfs een zalfje heeft meegegeven. Goede stop om de reis...

You’ll love my place because of the friendly atmosphere set off the road in a calm garden. It is recommened by reviewers "Good stop to break up the Bajawa - Ruteng journey." 9.0 Review from Guy 26 Sept 2025 ✅️ delicious breakfast ✅️ everything clean ✅️ absolute recommendation 10.0 Review from Anii_00 6 Aug 2025 Paul's Homestay is an excellent stopover for motorbike travelers. It's perfect for those who are independent, budget-conscious, and seeking authentic experiences. The Trans-Flores Highway is paved and offers a stunning drive, but it typically takes longer to navigate than Google Maps might estimate, Motorbike travelers, please be mindful of safety concerns and plan carefully, especially in remote areas.
I’m Paul, (english excelent) a registered tour guide and my wife Maria (english Good) or another family member, will be at home to welcome you and show you to your room. You can also reach me by whatapp if needed, my availability is limited during the high season.
Please make sure to eat dinner before checking in, as we do not provide dinner services. Alternatively, you can drive to Borong, which is only 10 minutes away. There's a restaurant called Chembos where you can enjoy dinner. Chembos Restaurant Borong Lovely place between Ruteng and Bajawa. Super nice owner who accommodated our requests. We had the grilled chicken breast which was cooked to perfection. The steamed brown rice was also a nice variant on the menu. Abundant portions and very tasty.
