Labuan Bajo hotels

Pros: Staff are so friendly and helpful and very clean

Cons: No TV and lots of mosquitos

Pros: Very nice location, nice and friendly people trying to do their best to accommodate needs. Very clean rooms and nicely kept garden. I loved the food choice in the restaurant!

Cons: We visited during rainy season and the sea is muddy. The pool instead is a great alternative, it looks exactly like the photos! Apart from that I wouldn't change a thing!

Pros: Excellent staff service, location and value. Great food too.

Pros: The hotel is located 5 minutes drive from Labuan Bajo center. Rooms are spacious and clean and the staff is friendly.

Cons: The hotel is located at the beach with the sunset right in front. Unfortunately the water looks dirty and not good for a swim...

Pros: Good Service and Staff. Clean beach unlike other resorts in the area.. Clean Rooms and Well.Maintained facilities

Cons: All good but No TV. Basic but very decent and clean. Good stay overall

Pros: Staff are superb at this hotel

Cons: Wi fi could be better

Pros: Excellent location and very happy staff willing to please. Extremely relaxing and quiet location. Very large and clean room.

Pros: The beach area is beautiful and the grounds if the hotel in general well kept with many beautiful plants and flowers. That was really the first noticable thing. The staff is very helpful and friendly

Cons: You could tell what they were going for in the rooms and bathroom, but it didn't hit the mark, and wasn't an accommodation we would have liked to stayed longer for, especially for that price. The breakfast was also so so

Pros: Incredibly friendly staff. Great food. Lovely linen, excellent pillows. Great restaurant...I could go on and on. Definitely the best hotel in labuan bajo

Cons: No dislikes whatsoever

Pros: Beautiful hotel! The staff are wonderful, so friendly and helpful. Massive rooms and beds! Wonderful new shower. Great air con. The garden is beautiful with so much wildlife. The most incredible sunsets, looking out over the ocean. Clean. You must try the outdoor massage. Shuttle service every 2 hours to town. Nice and quiet place. The pool is wonderful. Restaurant with live music is great as well. Great fresh fruit at breakfast. You can get breakfast boxes to take if going on day trips. I loved the spaghetti and bruschetta. The fresh fish was great but it didn’t have the organs taken out of it, which you are supposed to do to cook fish. Loved this hotel!!! Very special and there’s even a fridge in the room.

Cons: The ocean isn’t good to swim in at low tide, wear shoes because there are cone shells and scorpion fish in Indonesia. The restaurant food is nice but could be a little bit more tasty.

Pros: Large Rooms, Pool area is very nice

Cons: Break buffet can be improved

Pros: Nice pool area snd good rooms. Restaurant and food there could have been better. It would have been nice with some tables where you could eat by the pool.

Cons: The amount of plastic in the hotel was a big minus for me. We were supplied with small plastic bottles every day. Please change to water containers where everyone can fill their water bottles. Minimize plastic!

Cons: The price of the room doesn't meet up with the facility and cleanest of the rooms & the hotel.Hotel food not much choice and insect & fly was every where, staffs was friendly but the price of the hotel is too expensive we rate the hotel 2 and half star.

Pros: The staff friendly and helpfull..and .have a little private beach

Cons: The location in quite area...far from convinience store ..need taxi/car to go outside..there is a shuttle service ( drop off/pick up) to downtown with add price.

Pros: Check in, front entrance, friendly staff

Cons: This is not a 4* hotel, it's 3* at best and the rooms need a good make over. The breakfast room is open and ok but far too many flies. The pool itself is good but the border with the beach is full of litter. The hotel should surely clean it up.

Pros: Hotel was paradise with excellent rooms, breakfast, room service and all aspects are great. Setting is serene & tropical with wonderful staff.

Cons: Had no problems at all. A little far to walk into Main Street of Labuan Bajo but taxis everywhere !!

Pros: Well the property itself is pretty rundown and bady needs some renovation. That being said, Bintang is the only reliable option in the vicinity and is very convinient location wise for island trips. The saving grace is a private beach. But dont get excited; its ruined with plastic waste ( not Bintang’s fault, but its sad to see remote islands getting screwed). The pool is massive and a good spot to chill. Infact we spent most of our time outside since the rooms were pretty uninspiring. If you have the money to splurge and looking for a dream getaway, go to Ayana or Sudamala

Cons: The rooms were damp with old interiors The staff were pretty unprofessional. We had asked for an alarm service at 5am. Nobody called. The pool bar needs some love.

Pros: Average

Cons: Cleaness

Pros: LOCATION sea views

Cons: No proper manager young staff need help

Pros: There is a pier for diving boats.

Cons: The transfer from the airport was not organized by the hotel despite of agreement, so we had to use taxi to get the hotel. We arrived at 10am and were not settled in the room till 2pm, because "our rooms were cleaned" . When finally we got them, we saw dust on all surfaces, stains from juice on the tables, no hangers. The furniture and the room in general looked shabby and dilapidated. There was smell of sewage on the 8th floor where we were living. Breakfast leaves much to be desired, for some reason there are no eggs in any forms. The hotel is nominated as four star, but in fact it is not. The territory near the sea was not cleaned. Outside the hotel on the beach there’s generally garbage. The big issue for the personal, that there is no shift transfer. In the evening before leaving we asked women on the reception about transfer to the airport for 6-15 am. But the "morning" reception guy was not aware about this request. Finally we left the hotel at 6-30 (the flight was at 8-10).

Pros: See view is nice

Cons: It is good overall but quite expensive for LB and compare to other hotels we have been to

Pros: Breakfast ok, normal fried rice or noodle

Cons: swimming pool is not clean as the pump not working

Pros: the sea view is spectacular at the sunset, so quite and beach is clean, staff is friendly and nice

Pros: It's near to the beach. Beautiful view. Our room facing the sea and its mesmerising. Amazing spread of breakfast

Pros: Views of the sea and pool/garden were fabulous. Pool very inviting and clean. Rooms great size and clean

Cons: Breakfast buffet was poor. Alcohol prices were high and charging for water was extremely bad when tap water is un drinkable. Providing water in a water bottle is a joke! Room and grounds were great, but a lot of room for improvement in the kitchen. Beach should also be maintained and cleaned, we attempted to stroll and it was disgusting right behind the resort.

Pros: Big hotel with super friendly staff. They have shuttle to the fish market every day at 6pm, not sure if they have another schedule. They also provide free airport transfer return to airport. The breakfast was wide choice and good taste! I stayed in the room with amazing ocean view. The swimming pool is very clean, and just a walk away to the beach. Absolutely will stay here again.

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: The view is spectacular. The staff friendly.

Cons: Very basic choice of food options that doesn’t change. No restaurant or bar or the days we were there as they had been rented out. No inside dining space - evening meal has many mosquito guests. No local Flores dining options.

Pros: We stayed here before/after a boat tour around the islands of komodo national park. We arrived several hours before check-in so spent the day by the pool while our room was being prepared. We did the same on the day of our departure as we had a late flight out of Labuan Bajo. The pool and day beds are fantastic! We had it all to ourselves for the whole day. The ocean view rooms are spacious and clean, with amazing views. We were upgraded to the Jayakarta Suite on our final night - it was a beautiful room with balcony, lounge area and huge bathroom. The staff in the restaurant and around the pool are extremely lovely. The hotel stored our luggage for us while we were on our 3 day boat tour.

Cons: We paid extra 100,000 rupiah on our first night to have an ocean view (rather than hill view). Considering the total price of the ocean view room (over 1 million rupiah), it was disappointing that there was no balcony. But the view from the windows was still amazing. The food isnt fantastic ( but it's not terrible). Again, for the price of the hotel you may expect a little higher standard. Saying that, we definitely didnt go hungry! Go for the local indonesian dishes rather than western.

Pros: The free airport shuttle bus. The grounds keepers!! Amazing!! They take epic pictures of you and the surround scenery. Noting was too much trouble for them.

Cons: The rooms are very dated. The TV is far to small for the room, must be an 14 inch. The front desk, were helpful. However, the bell hop, more so. He informed me of the free shuttle, that picks and drops you off into town at certain times. The only problem, the shuttle dropped me off & when I arrived at the pick up location 5 minutes before, the due time. The driver was no where to be seen. I waited for about 10 minutes, whilst being accosted by rogue taxi’s. I am not that happy, as anything could have happen, seen as thought I was a solo traveller. The breakfast was alright, they had a variable choice. Love the fact they had beef sausages and bacon. However, the birds flying and landing on the serving spoons, was very off putting. They ran out of butter, when a waitress came, she gave me frozen butter to spread on my toast. I had to ask her to get me butter that was not frozen, she back shortly with the individualised butter open and defrosted (microwave) The pool had leaves and insects dead, floating inside. I had to wait over 30 minutes for pool towels to be made available. The WIFI is problematic. Every 5 seconds, it would log you out and you would have to re-enter the information, in order to access the internet.

Pros: Bed was comfortable and room spacious. Bathroom too was spacious

Cons: Thought it was too expensive for an old resort. Breakfast provided was below standard. Dinner was ok.

Pros: The property was njce and clean and big

Cons: The food and drink was very expensive for what it was and service was very poor, had to go to reception 3 times to ask for someone to come to the pool so I could buy a bottle of water, it just seemed the staff didn’t realy want to serve us

Pros: We got a free upgrade, besides, everything was really clean and really nice staff.

Pros: The view for watching the sunset is very nice

Pros: European standards in the middle of Indonesia!

Pros: A great place to stay after 3 days on a boat trip. Friendly staff and a clean and spacious room. A nice bar and restaurant with a great view of the harbour. Breakfast is good and a great start to the day.

Pros: Room was better than expected with a large balcony facing the ocean with a sunset view. For a short stay it’s perfect just pack ear plugs with you.

Cons: The rooms are directly below the restaurant and being woken up at 5.45am to the tables and chairs being set up and scratching across the floor. Also early morning noise from staff using the kitchen that is 2 doors down from the room.

Pros: very friendly place, charming young french lady at the reception, very good staff at the bar/restaurant area an excellent boat tour to Komodo was organised

Pros: Professional diving center which takes you to amazing diving spots. Absolutely loved diving with them! The diving masters, boat guys really fun and professional. Restaurant staff is lovely.

Cons: The check in took 1h before we were taken to the room. It’s not necessarily what what you dream about after 20h of travel to get there. Definitely that could be organized more efficiently (even with the paperwork needed for diving). I booked the diving and the Komodo tour in advance. I paid for that and twice they forgot to put me on the list. The boats got fully booked. They managed to reorganize stuff and put me in, but you don’t wanna stress if you can make it or not if you have only few days there. Paperwork organization and communication should be improved. I brought one non diving person with me. When I arranged diving it was agreed that she can come on board with us (to chill and snorkel when possible). On the night before I was informed that she can’t come with us anymore. The pool is suitable for diving courses, not really for chill out. There’s no relaxing area with sun beds by the pool, so if you bring no diver with you - it may be not the best place to stay.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: This hotel was so wrong. It should be a 1-star hotel, not 4. There was a big noise from the outside, so I can’t sleep at all. The appearance of this hotel was a dissappointment. For almost 900.000IDR I expected more. I have never been in such a bad hotel. There was a children playground ourside so I heard noisy children all time long. The swimming pool was like for fishes. So close to my room was a kitchen, I heard people from 6 a.m. To 12 p.m. The entrance to my room was nearby kitchen so smell was very wrong. I don’t know advantages about this place, I was even bitten by bad bugs. For the breakfast it was only one dish, for example scrambled eggs and No butter to bread and only one cup of tea.( there was only one taste of tea). For my Blue Marin Dive Komodo is a completly disaster.

Pros: The view, the private beach n the pool

Cons: The staff in restaurant is not good

Pros: Quiet, off the beaten track. Free shuttle to the city

Cons: Dirty beach

Pros: They pick up us from L Bajo port and soon gave us welcome drink after arriving in the hotel the room spacious and clean

Cons: we booked non smoking room but they gave us 2 smoking room but they changed the room. Nice restorant in open air but must be carefully to keep clean because birds come to eat remain on the big spoons on the plate without cover.

Pros: Beachfront location

Cons: Poor choice of breakfast

Pros: nice view of beach, sunset, cows in the sea

Cons: dinner is not tasty

Pros: The views from the pool

Cons: Amazing views. Very friendly staff. Wonderful time at the hotel.

Pros: Good location. Helpful staff. Allowed us to leave our luggage before check in time

Cons: We booked 5 rooms. Rooms were not cleaned properly. Bed linen was dirty with stains. In other room trash bin was still full. Upon our request staff changed all. Breakfast super basic. Toast and egg of your choice. Restaurant was with nice ocean view located on upper 4th floor but to get there you have to use stairs. No elevator.

Cons: Wifi was almost unexisting. 4 networks and passwords and none of them works at all.

Pros: Nice setting close to shops and piers with nice breakfast view. Nice staff overall positive and happy stay.

Cons: No toilet paper in room

Pros: Great location, good size room and clean. Breakfast was good and location within walking distance to town, however ( will come back to this) the problem with long stays is outside of the control of this property and that’s it’s proximity to the mosque.

Cons: I’ve lived and worked in the Middle East for a number of years and well use to the call to pray. Doesn’t bother me at all however at 4ish am and thereafter, I can’t remember the call even being as loud as it is here in Labuan Bajo. This was the only reason to shorten my stay. So please take this into account , otherwise it was a great stay!

Pros: We stayed in the new rooms which were modern, spacious and bright. The beds were comfortable. There was no tv nor electric kettle. The hotel is close to the port and close to the Main Street with restaurants. The hotel has no facilities. When it’s raining not the best place to stay. If you only want a bed Its fine.

Cons: There is no elevator. Our room was at the 3rd floor and the restaurant at the 4th. So quite a climb. The stairs are very weird and dangerous designed. You have to go from one stairs to the others via an uncovered area and then up via a kind of ramp. When it was raining it was very slippery. There is not a nice reception area where you can sit when it’s raining. The breakfast is served in the restaurant at the 4th floor where it’s very hot. A few ceiling fans would have been good. The breakfast is very very simple. It’s food but nothing more. The view is very nice. The rooms were supposed to be “cleaned” daily. They just made up the beds and put new towels. The shower and sink were never cleaned and nothing was put in place.

Pros: Comfortable. Passable for overnight stay.

Cons: WiFi not working (not usually an issue but after 5 nights diving without WiFi we were looking forward to some). Breakfast average.

Pros: Very helpful staff cooked breakfast for me at 6am when I had to go for my trip to Komodo Island early. Nice clean accommodation in good location but not on the Main Street but only 5 min walk from it.

Pros: Friendly staff. Room extremely clean. Great location - one street behind the main road so you're close to everything but it is not noisy. We had dinner and a few breakfasts in the restaurant and it was all very tasty.

Cons: Room doesn't come with a TV. Otherwise, our stay was very pleasant.

Cons: The wifi signal was quite poor

Pros: The hotel provided free shuttle from airport to hotel, free transport to restaurant and pick up again from restaurant to hotel

Pros: The nicest staff ever. So very helpful. Great breakfast buffet and a very nice common area. Great shuttle service too.

Cons: Location is a bit out.

Pros: Staff really kind they upgrade my room for free. Quite and relaxing Clean Hot water and hair dryer

Cons: WiFi poor in the room area but I’m sure they will improve it

Pros: Very friendly staff.

Cons: Food in restaurant, location a ways out of town .

Pros: Staff was super friendly

Pros: Rooms were clean, good bed, staff extremely friendly and helpful, good indonesian breakfast.

Cons: No hot showers, WiFi worked very poorly in the room, sometimes out of toiletpaper or towels and had to ask for them at the reception, there was a cat terrorizing the hotel at night and the staff didnt seem to be bothered.

Pros: We were moved to a suite even if we payed for a standard room and that’s was a great beginning! The staff is nice, funny and always available. Big and clean room, nice breakfast, free shuttle from the early morning till 10 in the evening to the city center (it just takes 5 mins)! Everything was great!

Pros: It’s a great place to stay, amazing staff, clean and good wifi conection. Outside of downtown, then quite to have rest (no muslin pray calls). Twice free shuttle service per day, to drop or pick up from downtown.

Cons: All was fine.

Pros: Friendly and helpful staff. Clean and comfortable. Hot water shower and cool air con. Only local channels on TV.

Cons: Can't say much. We only stayed one night.

Pros: The big room with two double bed (Deluxe room). We like the restaurant where you can get really nice view while we have our breakfast in the morning. You have nice view over the port (from the 3rd floor of the restaurant).

Cons: The floor in the room can be cleaner. No window in the room. Creaking bed.

Pros: Wonderful Labuan Bajo harbour view from the hotel's top floor restaurant. Can't have enough of the beautiful sunset vista. Friendly staff. Excellent location. Plenty of supermarkets and eateries around. Nice jetty right behind the hotel. Aircon and wifi. Lively environment.

Cons: Can be noisy. Music from top floor restaurant stops at 10pm. The mosque's prayer through the megaphones. Then again, those are part and parcel of the trip to this region, so we came prepared with that expectation and turned them into unique experience. Creaky beds! Now this one the hotel management needs to sort out.

Pros: Lovely friendly staff. Basic hotel but IG has a lovely character and feel to it. Beds are super comfortable and room very clean. Very good value for money

Cons: Nothing it was fine

Pros: Excellent quirky hotel right in the heart of Labuan Bajo. Perfect central location. Great breakfast, and the rooftop bar and restaurant is the best location in town for sundowners looking over the harbour. Friendly staff and a gorgeous room, at a very good price.

Pros: The people are super friendly at the desk.

Cons: No Vegan options,, coffee was bad, fruit was overripe, I do recommend to get breakfast some place else :)

Pros: The staff were nice and tried to be helpful. They hired us a driver who was lovely to take us around the island.

Cons: The words I would use to describe hotel are profanity so I will refrain. The facilities themselves left a little to be desired. Every time I turned on the tap in the washroom it smelled like sulfur. The room had no windows. It was like a little prison. My room was located near the staff room so every two minutes I could hear doors slamming and people talking. Not my favorite stay but if you're a Backpacker on a tight budget this would pass.

Pros: Nice place for this money Staff so kindly Room clean , aircondition working good

Pros: Beachfront access and shuttle to town. The drivers are really friendly and especially the housekeeping team.

Cons: 1. Bad attitude of some of the restaurant staff. Either need more training or simply just plain lazy. 2. Restaurant kitchen said we CAN'T change how the egg is prepared on the fried rice. If it says sunny side up on the menu then that's what the guest is going to get. They simply don't want the hassle into making a scrambled egg instead. In the end, we keep ordering food from restaurants in town and they deliver the food to our room for free. 3. The front desk barely acknowledges a guest or even say hello. 4. They took our towels to be cleaned but we had to wait for a while until they wash them all and give them back to us.

Pros: Front beach view

Cons: The room was not clean

Pros: This property is right in the beach and has a beautiful view of the sunset. I was solo but this is perfect for couples.

Cons: I wish there was a fan outside by the toilet. It gets very hot and I was praying I didn’t have to use number 2 again.

Pros: Private beach

Cons: WiFi

Pros: The setting

Cons: There were no small Bintang beer only large. Bar too far from the pool we usedhote

Pros: It was close to the beach.

Cons: There were ants coming out of the bar fridge all the way to the bathroom. We had shown it to the staff who said they will sort it out. They didn’t.

Pros: All

Cons: Shower water supply.

Pros: For me , location was great and staff were excellent. Breakfast was more than enough for me and would have stayed longer. However the location is greatly disadvantaged being close to a mosque and the call to pray is very loud. At 4ish every morning and thereafter , this was the only reason to having to move. After many years living in the Middle East , I was surprised just how loud!

Cons: Nothing within the property’s control.

Pros: Loved the fact the beach area is right in the property which make sunset watching that much more enjoyable. It was quiet and relaxing property and the staff was helpful and willing to help.

Cons: None

Cons: The hotel is located not so close to the city center. Shuttle service did not run frequently.

Pros: Hotel very close to the airport with the transfer included. Not far from the city on foot (shortcut), room basic but ok.

Cons: Hotel located close to the road. Breakfast could be better.

Pros: l thoroughly enjoyed my 3 night stay here. Very minimal yet comfortable rooms with a bathroom and A/C. And a balcony!! All of the staff were professional and helpful and great to talk to. l certainly recommend staying here.

Cons: Nothing to say here.

Pros: Great and friendly staff, very helpful. The hotel also organizes trips to Komodo National Park which I highly recommend (I took 2D/1N trip to Rinca. Fantastic experience!)

Cons: Nothing to complain about :)

Pros: Good bed, AC worked properly, nice staff and breakfast was simple but okay, WiFi worked well in the room

Cons: No hot water in the shower and you had to hold the shower yourself

Pros: The accomodation was close to the airport, but none are really that far away in Labaun Bajo.

Cons: We were told breakfast was from 630. On our second morning we were doing a dive trip and we had told the hotel staff we were leaving at 7am. We went down to have breakfast and finally after sitting for 20 minutes we were told there was no gas so no breakfast. We also had a trip the third day leaving earlier and to our surprise they had set up breakfast for another guest just after 6. They did offer an evening shuttle to go into town for dinner and so we tried to arrange a pick up when they were coming in on one of our trips, they politely agreed but we waited for over 20 minutes, they did not show up. It was fine to sleep but we were glad to leave.

Pros: The staff are very friendly and welcoming Airport pickup/dropoff was also really nice. I found a Tokay Gecko roaming around my room and it was really pretty and cute :) I hope no harm comes to it.

Cons: The location of the hotel is up a hill so it's not an easy trek; especially at night. The toilet cistern didn't have a cover. It looked really gross. Wifi only works at reception i.e. no wifi available in your room. The doors are very poorly sealed. There is up to 2cm gap on each edge (and 1 large crack on the door itself) which mosquitoes keep coming through.

Pros: Decent room. Offered us to drive us to town and pick us up back. Ok view, but don't expect much.

Cons: No WiFi in the first room (sea view side, first one coming up the stairs), accepted to move us to another room though the staff was reluctant and made it a bit inconfortable. Located up the hill, so kind of remote. Bathroom ceiling is partially open: rain and mosquitoes come in.

Pros: The location is great and the bed is comfy.

Cons: It’s filthy, the bathroom is mouldy, holes in door frames are filled with toilet paper, all the grouting is stained orange, the rooms have never had a decent clean. The walls are covered in black scratches and paint chips, the breakfast is a measly bit of toast or cereal which is ridiculous when spending $50 a night. Needs a major overhaul!

Pros: The hotel is in a good central location, close to shops, nice views of the harbour, friendly staff

Cons: Room could have been cleaner although all bed linen was clean. No wifi in the room.

Pros: Very close to the harbour, shops and restaurants. The hotel is pretty big and our room on the sixth floor had very nice views. The room is spacious with a separate bathroom. Breakfast was included (toast with butter and jam, cereals, milk, tea, coffee...).

Cons: There was no wifi in the room.

Pros: Bed is comfort. Clean. Good location. Near airport.

Cons: The door cannot lock.

Pros: free bfast

Cons: nothing
