Ge JacMart Homestay Makassar

This is a very good home stay in the centre of Makassar. Well placed to see the sights. The hosts made us very welcome and were very helpful throughout our stay. They suggested good local warungs (family run restaurants serving one signature dish) which helped have confidence to choose local places to eat! They also suggested a local Landry that did an excellent express service. You can buy cold cans of beer from the fridge. There is a television in the room with a selection of channels (some in English with subtitles). The house is very clean and tidy. The breakfast is sufficient and was especially helpful as there is nowhere local to buy a western breakfast.

We had a wonderful stay at this accommodation, marking the start of our journey in Makassar. It was the first place we stayed at, and with no expectations, it felt like coming home to family—a breath of fresh air after a long trip. In the bustling city, we found peace and a warm welcome from George, and later, we met sweet Marlah, who treated us to a delicious breakfast every morning. Our expectations were exceeded by this lovely couple who were genuinely interested and eager to help with everything. They even gave us a bag of water and snacks for our long trip, drove us to the airport, and waved us off with warm goodbyes. The location is great, with many attractions within walking distance (just remember to bring earplugs for the mosque sounds).

The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for those looking for a genuine and personal touch during their stay. The room was spotless and comfortable, providing everything we needed for a great night's rest. The breakfast was delicious, with a variety of options to start the day on a high note. Plus, the location is excellent, with plenty of great restaurants within walking distance. If you're looking for a place that combines comfort, cleanliness, and exceptional hospitality, this is the perfect choice!

I stayed only one night. The room was clean, the beds were comfortable, the water was hot. The internet was not working very well. The host waited for us at the airport. When I arrived there was no currency exchange office open (all currency exchange offices close at 5:00 p.m.). The owner helped us find an ATM and took us there by motorcycle. Very kind hosts. I only used the room for a few hours because we had to leave early in the morning because we had a plane. As a recommendation, use a taxi, the application for Grab works very well. The price was very good for the airport.

The owners are really lovely and helpful. The room was very comfortable and very clean. We paid for an additional breakfast which was also great and geared for western tourists. The location is great and close to a lot of locations. During our stay it rained a lot so we ended up going to the trans studio mall which was enormous with loads of food options (lots of play choices for children too and a snow world )
