“If you want to get to know the Toraja culture better and are a sociable person, the Ne Pakku Manja Family Home is the perfect choice. Meyske welcomed us into her home like friends. The accommodation has several rooms and you share common areas such as the living room and bathroom. You don't need to cook since you can also have dinner on site on request, which is really delicious. What is very practical is that Meyske is a local guide and offers a two-day tour during which you learn an incredible amount about the fascinating Toraja culture, visit traditional ceremonies and burial sites and hike through rice fields. We had a great time there and would advise anyone traveling to Rante Pao to stay there.”
“The staff was the best. The hotel is basic, but very cozy, clean, well located nearby the center (10 mins walk), has some nice views and a delicious kitchen. They are very helpful with travel info, buses, private cars...”
“The very clean room was in the mainhouse and is equipped with a hot shower. The whole family is very friendly and helps you with everything you need. We espacially loved the banana and pineapple pancake and the tamarillo juice for breakfast. Hendrik (as well as his nephew) is also one of the best guides for the Tana Toraja.”
“It was a great experience to stay at Meyske’s family house. From the beginning we arrived it felt like home. Meyske welcomed us warmly and took care of everything for our entire stay. We also booked a two days tour with her to dive into the Torajan culture. We really can recommend doing the tour with her, because she is really enthusiastic and authentic explaining everything about her culture she loves. Besides that she is an amazing cook - breakfast and dinner were always delicious.”
“Imanuel and his family are very attentive and kind hosts. They have the kind of hospitality that comes from the heart.
The room and the shared bathroom are cleaned regularly.
The breakfast is 5-star! On my last day I got the best ginger tea of my life!
I did a 2-day tour with Imanuel in the Toraja region and it was very interesting and informative. Imanuel is a very good guide and his English is super. He also helped me to find a guide to show me around in Makassar.
Thank you very much for everything!”
“Ladies in reception and restaurant were adorable and very helpful! The hotel itself has all it requires - A/C, 5G wifi, hot water, on site restaurant and senseful staff.”
“Very clean, comfy room with a huge bed. Towels and shampoo etc provided. Lovely, friendly staff who were very accommodating. Good location by bus stop but also central so guides can meet you easily and take you into Toraja. I had a really great stay. Thank you!”
