We live in the homestay together with our two lovely sons, MayoNeo. Our two floored house has in total 3 rooms. We share 2 rooms for you where each room can occupy 2 pax and another one is for 2 pax and possible to add an extra bed for a family. The second floor is for the host and the rest is an open space for our office. On the second floor, it has a balcony where you can eat breakfast while enjoying the view of the garden. We have one ensuite room or private bathroom and one suite room shared with the owners, all roomsare cold water but we can boil a bucket of hot water for you. So, our house can be occupied by adults and 1 kid. The guests are welcomed to make his/her own meals, make your own drink, enjoy a non-stop free WIFI, enjoy meals on the balcony, free information from the host, and all guests who need information about tours, bus ticket booking, tour guide, what to do or where to go inside the city, the host will be here for you.
Mayo is the name of the owner's sons Mayoneo. Building the house was inspired by the journey of how Mayo was raised. They were far away from dad when they were still babies. The father moved from one to another city to work with customers. In short, Mayo is the reason I come back home and we want to treat you as our Mayo.
Our closest neighbor is the house of Mayo's grandparents, who have been very supportive of our plan for hosting guests at our house. They are the bigger part of the homestay. We have a lovely neighbor who's in the backyard and then the rest is just a coffee garden that belongs to our neighbor. 1 km from our accommodation, you will be headed to the most beautiful spider web rice field where you can explore for 2 km in distance. 1.5 km from the viewpoint of sea rice terrace or 10 minutes drive. You are 2 km from the crowded city center, market, restaurants, hospital, cafe, and clinics. Our homestay also provides car rental. If you need a pickup service from Labuan Bajo, please kindly let us know in advance. We also have a channel for motorbike rent and bicycle rental.
