“We liked our stay but...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 August 2012

Whatever you read on this resort is true. Positive and Negative. Positive is the excellent location, wonderful view over the valley, original set up of the bungalows, friendly staff. Also true is that the resort is in need of refurbishment and repair. Food served is indeed basic. No alcohol in the bar, if you want a drink, bring a bottle... More

“Potentially romantic resort, gone to seed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

One of THE most spectacular settings you can wish for, overlooking the remote Baliem Valley. The location is superb, but terrible to get to! There is a fantastic collection of tribal art (a museum almost worth the trip on its own) and an ambience not dissimilar to African game lodges. The whole thing was conceived by a German industrialist more... More

“Beautiful location but very isolated”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 April 2011

We just returned from a trip to Papua and had a wonderful time. The people were very sweet. The Baliem Valley Resort is in a beautiful setting -- however it is very isolated and since it had rained while we were there the road was very difficult to get up and down. If you haven't hired a guide or driver... More

“A terrible experience”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 July 2010

I have been living more than 12 years in Asia, 4 years in Indonesia and my colleague 6 years and we have never felt so rip-off ! Your property, the Baliem Valey Resort is just a joke. When we arrive at the airport the driver was at the gas station so we have to wait 20 minutes then we drive... More

“Mixed review”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2008

We just returned from a wonderful visit to Papua and stayed at the Baliem Valley Resort. The property is on a lovely mountain with panoramic views and patio from each room. The setting was lovely. Please be aware that the resort is very isolated and once in the resort, there was nothing around it. To get into the town, or... More

Hello. My review is coming a bit late as I stayed at this hotel over a year ago but I am about to go back in a couple of weeks and was checking if there had been any reviews. Therefore, let me tell you about this wonderful place. First, let's clarify things. This is not a five star business hotel... More
