Pantai Gapura Hotel Quirky and interesting overwater resort situated on the water front at Makassar Harbour. Rooms are dated but clean. The waterfront rooms have a small, but nice balcony. Walls to the adjoining rooms are thin and you can hear all the late night comings and goings. Bathroom is old, tired and a bit on the mouldy side. Restaurant... More

Don't stay here. Noisy, Fogging and pesticides in full view of guests with noisy machine at 6 a.m.. Pool closed at 6 pm. Bedrooms old and tired as are the towels. Air conditioning didn't work. Gave us a cottage with scaffolding on outside. Food poor and expensive. Room prices are also overly pricey. Generally unsatisfactory. Come for a drink on... More

Nice hide away in the middle of the centre, build on pillars in the sea. Good service, except of the breakfast staff. They intend to cleanup the breakfast buffet half hour before closing time, starting with the coffee. Overall best choice in Makassar

The environment outside is totally different from inside the Hotel. The Hotel owners probably wanted to recreate Bali in Makassar. Food is not great, rooms need a makeover and we hardly see hotel staff. However, the location and the atmosphere nakes up for these gaps. The counter staff are helpful. The sunrise and sunset views from the hotel itself is... More

Only stayed for one night, but seafront cottages over the water have a great sunset view - as does the sunset bar. Rooms and beds are comfortable - though furniture and bathroom fittings are beginning to look old. Enormous pool. Disappointingly, only western food was available. Free wifi is only available in lobby area - but pleasant, open air area... More

Arriving at 2am it was hard to gauge the hotel but the hardwood finishes and general ambience we reassuring! Daylight revealed a fab view across to the island. Avoid the rooms in the main building and splash out on the cottages. The frontage to the main street is veryunderstated but overall 3 star and clean but slightly faded. The rooms... More

It's pool also nice, the best pool I've ever seen in Makassar. It has open air lobby and you can sit in the garden just opposite the lobby and see plenty... More

1) Cottage room & services are standard, 2) Unique restaurant serving average local food 3) Local customer fishing on deck 4) Bar a bit noisy when there is a wedding or birthday party 5) Pool is standard but water quality quite cloudy. It's pack of people on the weekend 6) Not enough light at night to go around. 7) Expensive

Their room are overprice and overated, don't be fool by the beautiful picture of their place. It's run down and the hotel entrance look like "bates motel". Was staying here because my tour leader book this place. There is a lot of better place to stay for the price this place is charging.
