Staff was super friendly. Restaurant was top level, get the apple crumble!!!
For us backpackers this was our expensive luxury stay, and it was worth every penny.

This is a homestay with the one of the local people of Komodo village, who is also a Komodo park ranger. It is not a hotel and does not at all have western standards or facilities, so it is not possible to review as a hotel.
The reason to go here is that it provides a base for a more genuine experience of the Komodo park than going on the speedboats. The owner Jeki can organize tours with the same itinerary (dragon treks, Padar Island, snorkeling and so on) but with just yourself and your company where you will have peace and quiet and lots of time to do whatever you want, not being surrounded by 50 other people. You will get there by fishing boat, and the local people of Komodo of course are the best at knowing all about the area and where all the animals can be found, I saw lots of dragons, mantas and turtles. I was warmly welcomed and got to eat home cooked delicious Indonesian food. My bedroom was on the top floor, had a fan and was sea front with beautiful view, I could sit on the balcony and watch the sunset. The bathroom was downstairs and shared with the family. There is wifi although the signal is unreliable.
To get here you can either take the public local ferry or arrange with Jeki to pick you up at the airport and go by fishing boat, as I did. My journey took about 3-3,5 hours one way. Jeki is easily contacted on his WhatsApp.
It was all a great adventure and a more authentic Komodo trip than I otherwise would have had.

Wonderful experience. Nothing to do with tourist excursions from Labuan Bajo.
Jhuna was perfect host, guide and sailor (also ask him about transfers to and from the island).
His wife is a wonderful cook (no need to go to a restaurant).
It certainly requires a certain spirit of adaptability. You have to be aware that it is not a hotel but a real village house, so: bathroom shared with another room and shower with basin.
However this allows you to really experience the island, see the dragons up close and discover incredible beaches without crowds.
Thank you Jhune, I wish you and your family all the best.

Georgio was great at communication all the way through our stay. He acted as our guide to see Komodo Dragons and the surrounding Islands, which was an amazing experience. Georgio was very knowledgeable on the Dragons and his family was very hospitable. If you want an authentic experience then this is for you.

Do not book your boat tour, book this instead !
The host, Mr Jahiding, will be your tour guide. Everything is settled the moment you land in Labuan Bajo. A car will be there waiting to bring you to the harbour and a boat is chartered just for you to Komodo island and back. If you need a quick getaway and want the best wildlife and scenic experience, this is what you need. Komodo Village has one of the friendliest people you can ever meet. They are extremely welcoming and treat you just like family.
The itinerary for your stay is so much better than the boat tours where so many activities are packed within your short stay on the boat. Living like a local, you can decide how long you spend snorkelling with the manta rays or just sitting by these prehistoric dinosaurs in the komodo national park (komodo dragons).
During my stay, I managed to play football with the locals which was an experience on its own. The locals are so friendly that one of them even invited me to his personal home for a meal which was so heart warming. I was lucky enough to be invited to join the men to go on a spearfishing trip in the middle of the night which is not something your tour agencies can offer. Not to mention, I also caught my own dinner on my second day during snorkelling at one of the most remote beaches in the world. Doubt your tour boat allows for that.
Everyone should experience this at least once and I would reccomend a good length of stay would be 4D3N which is perfect but 5D4N for the ultimate Komdo experience. Look for Mr Jahiding and I am confident he will make your experience here even better than mine. He speaks great english so communication was not an issue. You will enjoy the best and most delicious local food cooked by your very own home chef too (his wife).
A very sad departure but I am confident I will be back.
To Komodo FC, let's kick again one more time !

Our family of 5 had a wonderful stay. The family who hosted us was very kind and helped arrange a local boat to take us to different beaches and snorkeling spots that were absolutely gorgeous (like manta point and pink beach). The host is a ranger at Komodo National Park and gave us a wonderful tour. It was very special to stay in the Muslim village on the sea and have a glimpse of life there. Everyone was very friendly and warm.
Menjaga Bay features an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a terrace and bar in Labuan Bajo.

Fairly expensive, not as developed, if you’re there for a boat tour, just get in and get out, not much to do there you can’t do in Bali or Lombok much cheaper. Can’t say enough about Sudamala Resort, reasonably priced if you book in advance and 5 star all the way.
