I can't praise Malinamoc high enough. We stayed here for more than 5 months, while my wife worked / volunteered at nearby Maluk Timor. Given the obstacles to hotel facility management and service delivery in this beautiful country, relatively, I think this is the best managed hotel I have ever experienced in my 35 years of travelling. Beautiful tropical gardens, lovely pool, nice apartments (well furnished, quality furnishings, nice standard throughout, good layout, light, everything working, impeccably cleaned) and wonderful friendly happy hard-working staff. It's a luxury to have 24/7 air-con and power all sorted for you, backup generator, internet (subject to country limitations), water barrels changed regularly, gas and a maid to do your laundry and service your apartment seven days a week, breakfast buffet and eggs cooked to your liking, 24/7 security. No request was too great - the highly experienced owner / manager Alvaro is happy to accommodate anything you need. It is close by the airport and not too difficult to wave down a taxi into town (which are cheap) or you can walk to the local shops, or you can even catch a mikrolet (local mini bus) if you're inclined, which go everywhere. The local neighborhood is very friendly and enjoyable to walk around. I can't recommend the place highly enough. It was a wonderful oasis and I think it is the best place to stay in all of Dili, especially if you have your own vehicle (I researched them all before we arrived and inspected many after we arrived). Thankyou Malinamoc (and special thanks to Alvaro, ).our maid Ali, our breakfast cook Mercy and the amazing head gardener).

Malinamoc Paradise is a hidden-gem oasis. It's a very well run, friendly, homely, resort-style property. They have 16 single-storey, serviced apartments (one and two bedrooms) which are very spacious, light and well furnished. There is an onsite restaurant for residents, a small gym and a decent size swimming pool (approximately 16-18 metres long). They have 24 hour security, a back-up generator and wifi (which is reasonable by Timor standards, but don't expect too much). Best of all are the beautiful established gardens and trees throughout the property and the ever-smiling, friendly, happy staff. You'll need to catch mikrolet buses or have your own wheels to get to other parts of town, because it's too far to walk in the heat to Timor Plaza (3 klms) or the even more touristy area of Farol (5.5 klms). It's in a safe residential neighborhood and has a few local restaurants and cafes within walking distance (although they are not particularly appealing). Lots of friendly locals in the surrounding streets, plenty of vendors peddling fruit and veggies.
