Located in Doyo Lama around 1 hour or more from Jayapura City center. Offer you a place to relax and small pool. Didnt try the food. Place is stunning. Perfect place for take picture and put in your instagram. Place is easy to find. There is carpark. If you just want to swim then they have fee for swimming. Different price for adult, teenager or kids. Reccomended for those who seek for a place to relax.

Great view, refreshing pool perfect for kids (a tiny bit cloudy and slimy on the bottom), food is decent, drinks are great.

The staff at Efata were most obliging in helping us plan and host a small birthday party for our son. The food and drinks were delicious. The pool very clean. A great time had at this location!
