Harry and Mimin were really friendly hosts! Unfortunately we didn't get to spend much time with them, since we checked in in the evening and went out early the next morning. Still, they were super communicative in advance and very helpful while we were there. I really liked their location outside of the city and, yes, did enjoy a beautiful sunset! The rooms are basic and reasonably priced, the breakfast was good, and we would happily stay again. Thanks so much!

We had a great time staying with Mimin and Harry, can absolutely recommend staying there! They organized our boat tickets to the Togians and answered all our questions. :) Thanks for welcoming us so great in Indonesia, we would for sure come back. All the best for you two and everyone who is surrounding you.

We had a wonderful time at Mimin and Harry's homestay. They are very nice and help you with everything you need. The surrounding is beautiful and perfect to relax. Mimin cooked a delicious indonesian meal for us. We were very happy to stay with them!

f you come here, keep in mind that this is an extended family compound, and that you'll be sharing space with the family and its menagerie of animals. In most ways, this is a positive, and Mimin will go the extra mile to be inclusive. Cleanliness is a bit of an issue. We stayed a week, and the kitchen area early in the mornings is carpeted in the debris of the previous day, which of course attracts flies. Other than this, the room was spotless, the mattress very comfortable, the fan alone perfectly adequate for nighttime cooling - blanket for sure needed! The bathroom is spacious (mirror ought to be cleaned, though), the shower is cold water yet plenty warm enough by late afternoon. The (western) toilet is not set up to flush, which must be done using a scoop. Breakfast: a choice among nasi goreng, nasi kuning, or toast/egg. Buy your own fruit and place it in the fridge, though. Wifi was good and reliable. We came to dive with Miguel's. The property is 11+ km from Miguel's (which is in the Pabean area of town), but Pak Irfan (a neighbor of Mimin's) is happy to do the shuttle, and is reliable. He'll do airport pickup too - but his car is quite small, so if you arrive with a mountain of luggage (or more than 2 people), this might pose a problem. WA him at 0821-8778-9309. The nearby national park is evidently closed to visitors at the moment, for Covid reasons. This makes slim pickings indeed for things to do, other than diving. Gorontalo town doesn't have much to offer, though now with modernity sweeping through, it has a mall with JCo and its excellent frozen yoghurt. Walking from Mimin's to Limboto lake will fill a couple of hours of idle time, but there's nothing to see there except people fishing. We didn't go to the ruins of the Portuguese fort - shrug, why bother? One positive of Gorontalo is that the people are very friendly.
