Breve Azurine Lagoon Resort

This hotel has it's own little beach and a jetty over the clear waters. The island is very hilly and with only one road surrounding the National Park in the centre, the hotel is on the edge of town. Only negatives are that due to the rustic construction, sound carries from the living areas downstairs and from other rooms very easily so suggest earplugs if a light sleeper and a sleep mask as the curtains and front door allows light to flood in. Fani on reception is such a star... even helping us when my hired scooter got a flat tyre. Trips to other islands within Karimunjawa national Park are easily available and the snorkeling is wonderful. Great place for a true off the beaten path paradise escape. Not suitable for anyone with mobility issues due to being built into the hillside though. Overall, we had a wonderful stay. Highly recommended

We spent one week on Karimunjawa and the Resort and loved every single minute. It's in a wonderful setting not too far from the village. The beach is small and lovely. We stayed at the Esplanade Suite which is nicely furnished, the huge terrace offers great views. The staff is very friendly and engaged. The food at the restaurant is probably the only negative. The dishes are lacking taste and even the spicy items are rather bland. But maybe this is how the (western) tourists like it? However the village isn't far and offers plenty of options.

The most beautiful resort I stayed at in my life. The view of the lagoon from the pergola and the restaurant (and the honeymoon suite) is a vision straight out of fantasies and dreams. It’s incredibly quiet. The only “noises” (I call them jungle-shore melodies) you will hear are those of geicos, crickets, and of course blue Azurine birds. The staff (Wulan and all the other delightful people) is incredibly lovely and helpful, they will help arrange ferry tickets and even organise retour transport to the cities on main land Java. The service provided at the restaurant is outstanding. Jean-Marc will make you feel at home, tell you about the culture of the island and provide really interesting insights on Karimun. He is working at building a library in the hotel based on the generosity of visitors, in a variety of languages - so on top of that you can fill your head with inspiring stories. The tour (I did a full day island hoping) organised by the hotel will help you realise the chance you have being here and bearing witness of the beauty of the island, the sea, and all of the nature around it. Thanks again Jiwaquest for everything 🙏🏼
