Spacious Rooms

I stayed at Arbiru Beach Resort for three weeks and was blown away by the spaciousness of the rooms. They come equipped with a kitchen, dining table, and a large bedroom, making it feel like a home away from home. It was perfect for my lengthy stay, allowing me the comfort and convenience I needed while in Dili.

Delicious Breakfast

The breakfast at Arbiru was a good start to my day. The continental style offerings included fresh exotic fruits and delicious homemade bread. I especially enjoyed the fried eggs, which were always cooked to perfection. It was a great way to fuel up before a day of exploring!

Refreshing Swimming Pool

One of the highlights of my stay was the beautiful swimming pool, which was accessible 24/7. It was always clean and well-maintained, creating a lovely oasis to relax in after a long day. The tranquil atmosphere made it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the warm Dili climate.

Great Entertainment Options

I found the TV options at Arbiru to be impressive, with good reception and a variety of channels, including Australian programs. It was great to relax in the evenings and catch up on my favorite shows after a day out. The addition of solid WiFi made streaming my own content easy as well!

I had an intriguing stay at this resort, which has a lot of space and a nice beachfront location, perfect for walks. However, the hotel definitely shows signs of age and needs attention in several areas. While the staff were friendly, communication was sometimes tricky due to limited English skills. Overall, it has unique charm but lacked the comfort I expected.

I had a spacious stay with divided areas for living, working, and sleeping, which was definitely a plus. The breakfast was decent, but I faced frustrating issues with water supply and security at night. Plus, the Wi-Fi had its moments of being spotty, which could be improved. Overall, it has a lot of potential, but there are definitely some areas that need attention.
