Spa Hotels in Komodo

My stay on Komodo Island, Indonesia, far exceeded my expectations, and can be summed up as a perfect blend of nature and human touch. Here's a breakdown across four aspects: environment, service, details, and activities. **1. Environment: A Hidden Tropical Paradise** The hotel is nestled along the coast of Komodo Island, boasting a private beach with crystal-clear waters and pristine white sand. The entire resort is enveloped by lush tropical vegetation, meticulously preserving its original ecological landscape. Guest rooms and public areas are thoughtfully spaced, ensuring absolute tranquility – day and night, you'll only hear the gentle lapping of waves and the chirping of birds, making it an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle. **2. Service: Attentive and Welcoming, Making You Feel at Home** The hotel provides a dedicated butler team for each guest. We were looked after by our room butler, Mr. Daniel, and his team throughout our stay. They maintained instant communication via a WhatsApp group (WA group), responding swiftly to everything from itinerary suggestions to daily requests. What truly touched me was when I experienced sudden abdominal pain; my butler proactively inquired and quickly brought medication, a level of care that went far beyond standard service. Upon check-in, welcome drinks, a special fruit platter, and complimentary mini-bar beverages were already prepared. At check-out, we even received handmade cookies as a travel snack – these thoughtful details highlight the hotel's meticulous care for its guests. **3. Activity Experience: Rich, Diverse, and Full of Rituals** The hotel organizes various activities daily: - **Ocean Exploration**: Snorkeling and boat trips are led by professional instructors, allowing guests to explore coral reefs and tropical fish directly in the hotel's waters. - **Signature Dining**: Sunrise breakfasts and sunset dinners combine gourmet food with natural scenery, creating a romantic ambiance. - **Cultural Experience**: Evening traditional dance performances vividly showcase Indonesia's cultural charm. - **Environmental Action**: Most unexpectedly, the hotel plants a tree in Bali in the guest's name and provides a photo, giving the trip a meaningful, sustainable dimension. **4. Overall Impression** From the quick check-in upon arrival and daily butler follow-ups to the seamless check-out process, there was no unnecessary waiting throughout our stay. The hotel infuses a human touch into a luxurious vacation – offering both the secluded feel of a private beach and the sense of belonging fostered by the enthusiastic team. A special thank you to Butler Daniel for his meticulous arrangements, which made this Komodo trip not only comfortable but also a memorable experience with a story to tell. As of now, this is truly the benchmark for island resort holidays in Komodo.

I highly recommend this hotel. I think it's the best hotel on Komodo Island. They offer free airport shuttle service. On the day of our arrival, my child probably drank a glass of unclean orange juice and vomited and had diarrhea all over the sofa that night. The hotel picked us up and took us to the hospital early the next morning. When we returned, it was past breakfast time, but after we mentioned it to the staff, they brought breakfast directly to our room. The hotel didn't charge us any extra for any of this, not even a cleaning fee. I can only say that for a room rate of just over 2,000 yuan, we received hotel service worth over 5,000 yuan. The service is even better than the Ritz-Carlton Retreat in Bali. You can go for it without hesitation. Also, the food at that restaurant was pretty good. Although some people complained about the price, honestly, I've never seen cheap food at a five-star hotel. Isn't it all about convenience and comfort? I ordered lamb chops and fish, and both were delicious, especially the lamb chops – they were fantastic and suited to Chinese tastes! The bill came to about 500 RMB, which I think is acceptable. Also, I strongly advise everyone to buy bottled water. Some hotels provide bottled water, while others provide glass bottles. Try to drink less of the glass bottles, and definitely avoid water with ice – who knows what kind of water those ice cubes are made of? Attached are two beautiful pictures of the island for you to see. Haha.

Directly talk about dry goods: This hotel is very good, a garden-style hotel, two-story small building, very homely. And it is not a closed building, the passage is open, and the view is very good. The room was very large, and there was a mat on the foot of the bed. Later, we played with the baby on the mat, which was very nice. Dinner was settled in the restaurant by the hotel’s beach, which tasted good. The waiter provides mosquito repellent water to every table guest. The juice is especially recommended for breakfast, especially the mixed juice. Mrs. TM is delicious! ! It's all freshly squeezed juice without water. In Indonesia, the juice is so delicious, it is really different from the domestic juice. You can watch the sunset on the beach. It should be noted that the sunset is high tide and low tide in the morning. The area of the beach changes greatly. If you want to play well, it is best to go in the morning and have breakfast right there. We are catching crabs there. The crabs run fast and it is difficult to catch them. The hotel provides paid airport pick-up and drop-off service, 60,000 cars, and the time of arrival at the airport and flight number should be indicated in the remarks when placing the order. You can also take a taxi at the airport, 700,000 cars. If you want to fly a drone in Komodo, you need to apply for a permit in advance. It’s like 800 RMB. I don’t know where to do it, so I didn’t fly.... If you have a drone, you must bring it. Find out where to do it. The scenery of Modo National Park is so beautiful, the effect of shooting with a drone will be particularly good. The local price of Komodo Island Hopping Day Tour is basically the same as that of Flying Pig. You can book anywhere, and you can also book it in the hotel. If there are many people, it is highly recommended to charter a speedboat. It is too convenient and enjoys a geometric improvement. If the per capita price increases by less than RMB 200, it is worth upgrading the speedboat.

Extremely satisfied with this resort! The hotel itself isn't huge, but the environment is fantastic. You can shore dive directly from the jetty, and there are tons of fish and large coral reefs! Snorkeling gear is provided. The service is also excellent; the laundry service is super fast and reasonably priced. The bathroom is open-air, but it's not an issue at all. The restaurant prices are a bit high, but the drinks are good, and they can even be delivered to your beach chair. Enjoying the sea breeze at night is incredibly comfortable!

The double room and its en-suite bathroom at this hotel are quite spacious, offering a comfortable environment. However, there was an issue with insufficient hot water supply at night, which could affect the showering experience. The air conditioning's cooling performance was poor, and it produced a lot of noise when running, somewhat impacting the room's peacefulness. On the positive side, the in-room facilities are well-appointed, and the hotel's service is very attentive, promptly meeting guests' needs. Additionally, the hotel does not have an elevator, so guests with heavy luggage will need staff assistance for carrying it, which is a slight inconvenience for travel convenience.

Pros: 1. The staff were incredibly enthusiastic and provided excellent service. 2. There's a private snorkeling area, which was a great experience, especially since we didn't book a liveaboard. Cons: 1. No internet, no internet, no internet! Apart from a few rooms on the hilltop, most rooms have extremely poor mobile signal (you can barely receive messages). WiFi is only available at the front desk. The management's excuse is that they ”don't want external noise to disturb guests,” but it's one thing if I have it and choose not to use it, and quite another if I need it and it's not available. If you need to stay consistently connected, this hotel is definitely not for you. 2. Prices are quite high. Since it's on a private island, a slight markup is understandable, but sometimes the prices are ridiculously high. For example, the hotel organized a beach buffet for 700k Indonesian Rupiah, which is about 300+ RMB after tax. The seafood options were only grilled shrimp, squid, and fish (the first two were served very slowly), and the only meat was grilled chicken skewers. In contrast, on the main island, we bought two large lobsters, two mantis shrimp as thick as a woman's arm, and even got two free squids, all for just over 700 RMB.

Small hotel near the Main Street of Labuan Bajo. Location is great. Ideal starting point for the Komodo tours as pick up and drop off will let you get home without having to spend too much time stuck in traffic. Also? It’s less than 2km from the airport making it super convenient and cheap to get to. Shame I found a couple of small insects roaming around. Bonus points for the sunset/sunrise views!

Very cute hotel far away from the hussel and bussel of everything. While the distance might inconvenience some, that was exactly what we were looking for. As mentioned in the other comments, the hotel isn’t the easiest to get to as you have to go down a little goat path if you come in from the top of the mountain. Definitely recommend getting the shuttle offered by the hotel to pick you up from the airport as our taxi driver had a hard time finding it haha. Super friendly staff, ready to help no matter the issue, even carried our (and in my case very heavy) suitcases down the path. Food is average but prepared with care. Electricity and (hot) water is limited and internet is only available in the main area from 6-9pm but they extended that time for us as we were the only people there at that time. Cute little beach in front of the hotel though there is a lot of trash (not the hotel’s fault- visible across all the islands) Just 1 tip: BRING MOSQUITO SPRAY! 🤭

Absolutely fantastic! 👍 The building is new, the views are beautiful, and the cleanliness is excellent. The staff are all friendly and very helpful. The room was cleaned every day. There's a kitchen with complete amenities 👍, and the towels are clean and fragrant. All areas are spotless. The downside: It's a bit far from everything, but you can order food and other things online (Grab), so for those looking for a peaceful getaway, this place is perfect. There's also an airport shuttle. My family and I really enjoyed our vacation at Kaliwatu Villas and Residence. If I ever come to Labuan Bajo again, I will definitely stay here. Thank you to Alex & Maria for your help! 🙏

Place looked like the pictures but was a bit more dirty in the corners of the room but otherwise no problem. Staff was friendly and helpful. The place is a bit far from the airport however only 10min walk to the harbour. There was also a prayer place right across the street so it got very loud at 2am
