Java Turtle Lodge Meru Betiri

We've had a wonderful stay at the 'Java Turtle Homestay'! We loved the quiet and peaceful atmosphere and the ever smiling helpful staff! The rooms are very comfortable and have a beautiful and large shower with hot water. A big thanks and congratulations to Ba Hadi, owner of the homestay, who made everything by himself. He makes sure every guest is feeling well and organises trips or activities according to one's wishes. We liked the visit of a local dragon fruit plantation, the production of brown sugar and of course the jungle adventure to watch and release turtles! Moreover, Ba Hadi is a very dedicated man for the local community. With the benefits of his homestay and activities, he helps orphans, provide school accessories, launches a local ambulance service, etc... We absolutely recommend Ba Hadi's Java Turtle Homestay!!

Magnifique séjour au Java Turtle. Avant même d’arrivée Hadi s’est occupé de tout pour nous aider à passer 4 jours inoubliables. Tout l’équipe est exceptionnelle et Hadi et sa famille très gentil. Les repas sont copieux et très bons. Nous devions prendre l’avion pour Bali et la route était fermée, mais no problem pour Hadi, il nous a pris dans son 4x4 et nous déposé de l’autre côté des travaux en passant par les champs…😉 Nous avons effectué l’expérience des tortues réservées directement par Java Turtle… Nous avons également eu droit à une visite des champs des fruits du dragon avec une explication du processus par Hadi 👍 Nous avons également lavé notre linge et il était repassé à notre retour et le tout pour une tout petite somme… Un grand merci à Hadi, sa femme et tout son équipe Famille Ferlay

Superbe séjour au Java Turtle Lodge que je recommande fortement! Hadi, sa famille et son équipe sont très accueillants et aux petits soins, et l'expérience proposée au sein du parc national est génial! Les logements proposés sont propres, spacieux et très charmants, et la nourriture proposée est locale, fraîche et délicieuse! Allez-y les yeux fermés :)

We really enjoyed our stay at Java Turtle Lodge. The rooms are clean, the staff is friendly, the food is very delicious, the tours we did where amazing (release baby turtles, visiting greenbay beach, driving through the jungle and seeing black and grey monkeys, hornbills and have breakfast at the river), there is a nice garden with hammocks and lovely seats. The lodges are even nicer than on the picture. Our stay in the turtle lodge was one of our highlights in East Java 🐢🐢

Java Turtle Lodge is fantastic! This is the place to stay in Meru Betiri. Pak Poer and his wife are incredibly friendly and helpful. They care deeply for nature and the community. This made me feel right at home. Pak Poer knows the whole area and can help with everything — from boat trips to private beaches, excursions to Sukamade beach to spot turtles, but also a 2-day jungle trek through the heart of the park (recommended for the fanatics). I even saw a turtle on the beach at night, which was an unforgettable experience. Last-minute requests are no problem at all. The nearby beaches and national park are extraordinary beautiful. The accommodation is super neat and within walking distance of several beaches. The meals are delicious and healthy. Hope I can go here again soon! Matur suwun Java Turtle Lodge!

We stayed 3 nights at Java Turtle Lodge, which was the best part of the whole Java/Bali trip. Hadi and his wife took great care of us, the lodge is designed and run with love and passion. Hadi organized our trips to, Green Bay, the local village and of course the great tour to Sukamade beach to see the turtle. That was an unforgettable experience, we had the best guide Oni and we really enjoyed it. Hadi also took us around the area of the lodge to other places so you can easily stay even more than 3 nights which I would do next time. The lodge is very comfortable with excellent meals, so come and see yourself.
