Family-friendly Hotels in Karimunjawa

One of my travel dreams was to visit Karimunjawa. This year my dream came true. The islands were as gorgeous as I hoped. We stayed four nights on the main island, Pulau Karimunjawa, but also saw some smaller islands. The sea is incredibly clear and blue, the beaches are clean and funky (don’t miss the Sunset Bar on Sunset Beach), the street food is nice (go to the lively night market) and the nature is overwhelmingly lush. In the middle of the green scenery of Karimunjawa we found the ideal location: Breve Azurine Lagoon. This place has a large garden where monkeys iike to play too. I can fully understand them. This is a fun place. When the tide is right you can swim in the lagoon in front of the hotel. Kayaking is also a possibility – free of charge. Did I already mention that we had a bungalow with a bathroom outside, including a bathtub? Great! We also loved having breakfast here. Staring at the sea and savouring Indonesian food or one of the Western options (pancakes, homemade bread). We found it extremely difficult to leave this place. The main reason were the warm and kind employees of this hotel. Not only the personnel in the restaurant, but also the people from housekeeping and the gardeners. I am especially grateful for everything Iga did for us. What a super woman! Sweet, funny, charming and clever. She really did her utmost to make our stay unforgettable and she succeed in just doing that. She arranged some nice trips for us, including the best snorkel trip of my life. I tend to be nervous while snorkelling, but the instructor managed to make me feel safe and confident. I will never forget what I saw under the water. Thank you Iga for arranging that. I hope to see you again, one fine day. Keep working the way you do. Keep being Iga! All the best, dear.
