We had a twin deluxe room and were very impressed with the quality of the room and the breakfast provided! The staff at reception were so lovely and warm as were the young men assisting with bags and doors. An extremely comfortable and well appointed hotel on wonderful Ternate! Across the road is Royals restaurant which has a diverse menu (lots of vegetarian) and if you ask they sometimes have beer additionally.

Sinuan Homestay consists of two separate huts within the same property. The bathroom is located a few steps away from the huts and has no sink. The shower is simple but water comes with little pressure so it is easier to use the mandi (please be water conscious). We loved our hut (Jabu 02). It was cosy and sufficiently spacious. The bed was very comfortable and the AC worked excellently. It was nice to have breakfast outside the little balcony. The area that faces the hut has loads of room to hang towels and laundry. The host lives in a house within the same property so she is very easy to contact in case of questions or requests. Alfiantitjuana (July) and her brother were extremely helpful and kind and always very discrete. It is easier to visit Morotai if you have a motorbike. The host can help you with this. She will also give you suggestions on what to visit (the WWII Museum is just 5min drive) and help with directions. The night we had to catch the boat from Morotai to Ternate (Queen Mary departing 8pm) July organised a private car to the port and came with us and helped to purchase tickets. The beach is right across Sinuan Homestay and there are a couple of cafès walking distance but most of the warung/restaurants are not walking distance. However if you need to buy water or snacks there is a little kiosk just outside the homestay. In case you need laundry the host will help with that too. The dogs were no problem at all. They barked (this is their "job") but were never aggressive in any way

The Host(Aty) speaks very good english, is always available with tips and tricks for tours and planning the next stops for exploring.

As already stated by others, the villa is outside Ternate city center so you need a car or motorbike to go around. We did not feel confident to ride a bike or drive a car as the traffic was too hectic so we decided to purchase the tour around the island and the one to the island of Tidore offered by the hotel. We enjoyed both days. The ride from the airport is IDR150/200k. From the villa you can walk 15min downhill to the main road where there's a little Indomarket and some street food/warung. We had dinner at the hotel a couple of nights. Food was excellent. Also breakfast was good (nice to be outside in the garden). Our room (room D) had a wonderful view. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom spacious. Room cleaning takes place every two days. In case you need to change money in Ternate you can go to Mandiri Bank the one on Jl. Nukila (they accept only 100USD bills). Avoid the money changer on Jl Kapitan Pattimura as it is a rip off.

Location was good next to a main harbour. The staff was helpful

The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. They clean the room every day.
