Homestays in Guinee-Bissau

"The property has a very good location, you can ski to the center and to the foot of the mountain. It is very clean and spacious, we booked two apartments and we are very satisfied with them. Wifi is okay, it works nicely. There’s parking and kitchen and two bathrooms and a toilet in those two apartments."

The owner was with us at the house, and he wanted to help us with the snow around our cars, but we didn’t always feel comfortable around him. He was cheerful and kind man sometimes, but sometimes he made unnecessary comments which were not needed in this type of situation since we are the guests there.

"Malaki and his family were great hosts! Very helpful and friendly. Sorted out lots of things for us with no fuss, even though we booked last minute and had limited planning. We had some good laughs! Good view of volcano, and hear the rumbling! Simple and authentic ni-Van accommodation."

Malaki still had a few things to finish... eg switching for solar lights and some plumbing... but we were 2nd guests, so it will be more complete for next guests

"The view from the balcony. Spacious apartment. 4 min walk to Skanderberg Square. Loved it"

"She is one of the sweetest persons I ever met in Bhutan. The room was neat and clean and it was a very nice homestay. She took care of me and my friends so well. If you qre in Punakha, I would recommend to take her homestay rather than going to any hotel"

Nothing. She was superb. The stay was in a remote location. But if you have a car, it is still accessible

"Heel veel het eten maar vooral de familie.Wat een top mensen.Ze laten je helemaal thuis voelen.De moeder maakt een hele goede maaltijd en Felix de vader kan veel vertellen.Het onthaal van de dochter was ook heel byzonder.Zo liefdevol.Deze mensen zijn echt top"

Niets

"Veilig parkeren motoren Hele verdieping huis plus ruim balkon"

"Staff were really helpful and kind, helping us find the Gare Routiere and sending the location of the hotel itself. Ziguinchor is a small town anyway but everything was in walking distance. Very quiet and comfortable. Excellent value for money"

"Locatie is wellicht iets ‘minder’ geen fantastisch uitzicht en vanaf het huis is het een klein stukje lopen/rijden naar dorpje. Voor mij was dit prima. Ontbijt en dinner gehad, waren beide super. Kevin is erg vriendelijk en relaxt, wat een verblijf bij hem fijn maakt."

Geen opmerkingen!

"De gastvrijheid en enthousiasme van Monika en Norbert!"

Aucun.

"Beautiful accommodation and excellent communication with the hosts."

"Amanda and Sabine were excellent hosts giving us free access to kitchens and other facilities. They both spoke excellent English."

Dumbea sur Mer is basically a boring suburb of McMansion houses and a shopping mall.

"Dichtbij het vliegveld, winkels op loopafstand. Mogelijkheid om te parkeren"

Geen lift, maar in ons geval niet nodig

"That’s amazing studio flat in a very nice hotel. It is sad that is sharing apartment, but you don’t share anything. You have your private bathroom, washing machine, private kitchen, private balcony, the only thing you share is one door to get to your flat. There are food shops and restaurants all around. Tram and bus stops very close. Metro station is about 1 km away, but you can take tram to get there, it takes two stops. Apartment was clean, nice clean white sheets, clean good towel, shampoo and hair conditioner. Security downstairs so you feel absolutely safe. Location is good for taking a walk by the marina to see yachts and a wonderful view to all buildings around. Wi-fi was good."

There is nothing in the kitchen, no spoons, no forks, no cups, no plates, absolutely empty. I had to buy a cup just to make coffee. Had to wait host for 1,5 hour. The main things to see are far away from the property, you need to take metro and ride 10-15 stops to see burj khalifa, the frame, future museum and ect. At least it’s one line. There was bad smell in the kitchen (can’t understand where it was coming from) had to keep balcony’s door open all the time. Very noisy street outside, cars and trams traffic all the time.

"Een eenvoudige kamer die de bewoners over hebben en daarom verhuren. Aardige, hulpvaardige mensen, spreken ook redelijk Engels. Er is een waterkoker waarmee je thee of koffie kunt zetten. Voor als je langer blijft is er ook een koelkast en een magnetron. Goeie tips gekregen voor avondeten en ontbijt (uitstekende bakker op 10 minuten rijden)."

Het adres is in een woonwijk en omdat ze in Japan geen straatnaam en huisnummer hanteren kan dat lastig te vinden zijn, vooral in het donker. Maar met Google Maps kon ik het toch uitstekend vinden.

"Really nice and chilled place. Very peaceful and quiet. Great customer service."

"Fernando and Ángel were super nice and friendly! It's a room at their house and like a homestay. Thank you for your hospitality ! The only downside was the mosquitoes 🫠"

"Friendly and helpful hosts, well-equipped little studio with a kitchenette and a balcony at the entrance, location convenient for driving to Murten, Bern, etc."

If you are a light sleeper, you might find the noise from the road (10m away) and the railway behind it excessive, as well as noise from the next door neighbours with small kids, etc.

"We vacationed here in March 2026. We came here for the sea of ​​stars, but we'll be back to experience the hosts' hospitality, the privacy, and the tranquility of this beautiful island. We felt very comfortable staying in this house, surrounded by the care and attention of the entire host family."

"Geweldige gastvrouw, niks was teveel. Ondanks de taalbarièrre prima kunnen communiceren via een vertaalapp. Ze ging met me mee naar de (dieren)markt en regelde zelfs het vervoer daarvoor. Op de markt kocht ze nog extra benodigdheden voor mijn ontbijt. Gebruik kunnen maken van haar wasmachine en ze heeft prima vervoer geregeld terug naar Bishkek via Burana tower."

"Je kan hier van alles: wassen, activiteiten etc. De kamers zijn ruim en de gemeenschappelijke ruimten ook. Ook is de host heel erg behulpzaam en denkt met je mee."

De locatie is matig. De host bedoelt het goed maar af en toe was het een beetje te meedenkend en aanwezig. Daarnaast was het jammer dat gedurende ons verblijf alle activiteiten die we wilden doen niet door konden gaan door ziekte/feestdag. Dan zit je in de middle of nowhere zonder dat je iets kan doen.

"Eenvoudig, maar praktisch ingericht en voorzien van alle gemakken! Prima bed (niet zo breed) Prima prijs/kwaliteit verhouding. Super vriendelijke host!"

Als ik persé iets zou moeten noemen, is het het ontbreken van een kraan en wasbak in het keukenblok. Creatief met afwassen, door vullen van de aanwezige teil met de waterkoker, die je in de badkamer met een kommetje moet vullen, omdat hij niet onder de kraan past 😁 Maar goed, ik vond het zelf gewoon prima zo.

"Mark is very hospitable owner, the apartment is clean and cosy, location is good. Mark was so kind to let us stay longer and check out late."

We didn't expect that "shared kitchen" means that the host is actually living and sleeping at the kitchen, but as we stayed for one night it was not a problem.
