Hotel Esplanada

What an amazing place to stay, right on the beach. Close proximity to supermarket, local cafes, short walk down the street. Anthony and Selina were extremely helpful and knowledgeable on things to do and see? Thank you both for sharing with us. As was all the staff who went out of their way to make our stay special x Our room was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Awesome gardens and pool, to chill and relax? Yoga sessions in the morning around the pool, depending on the weather. The views from the restaurant overlooking the foreshore were amazing. If you’re keen highly recommend the grilled fish in banana leaves, that was ssoooooo good. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for a special place to stay this would be it…

Stayed here on recommendation from another guest who has stayed on a number of occasions and really happy we did.. Mr Anthony and his staff provided a really nice and relaxed environment to stay and was happy to accommodate our various travels to other parts of Timor. We ended up using this as a base as we went out to various parts of Timor and was nice to return very few days. The rooms are comfortable and quiet.

This place is such a cool find in Dili. It’s right on the beach and on a main road, but inside it feels super chill and tucked away. The garden around the rooms is really pretty and peaceful. The pool area’s perfect for just hanging out. My room was comfy and had all the basics. And the rooftop bar? Great food and amazing views — perfect for winding down after a day out. If you want to relax and soak up Dili, this is the spot

Came for a stay-cay and didn’t want to leave. Service was great- all staff are attentive to any requests, food is yum- highly recommend tequila prawns and the fish and prawn curry. Cocktails are a little on the smaller side but there is peace in the world when you’ve got the pool to yourself 😎 definitely recommend a stay!

we had no expectations - 2 night stay to check out East Timor and found the location great, opposite the bay, not really a beach. Staff all very pleasant and familiar with sights and eateries around the city. clean functional rooms, restaurant staff also very friendly.
