Ein tolles Hotel mit einem wunderbaren Sonnenuntergang
Pros:

Das Hotel ist sehr sauber und das Essen sehr gut. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt und ist für Sumba super. Das Hotel eignet sich super als Start- oder Endpunkt auf der Sumba Rundreise.

A nice place to watch a good sunset from.
Pros:

We had the Twin Room with Garden View. It was in an A frame, thatched building. The room felt very relaxed and we enjoyed the outdoor bathroom. There is a very large pool and it's close to the beach. Breakfast was good and it was great that there was food available throughout the day. The staff were always friendly and helpful.

Bellissima esperienza
Pros:

Posizione, struttura, pulizia, personale, tutto top

Cons:

La colazione potrebbe offire qualcosa in più di internazionale.
La spiaggia, proprio sotto l’hotel, potrebbe essere fornita di qualche ombrellone e sdraio.
Il mare, purtroppo, è difficilmente accessibile a causa delle maree, onde e rocce (almeno ad agosto)
Nelle vicinanze non c’è nulla il villaggio piu vicino è Tombolaka, ed è a 20 minuti di taxi (25€ andata e ritorno) va valutata, eventualmente un auto a noleggio

Pros:

Sublime piscine à débordement vue sur la mer.

Cons:

La propreté n’est absolument pas au rendez-vous (piscine très sale, logement vieillissant et mal nettoyé : exemple des taches sur les draps, serviettes).
Manque de service de la part du personnel de l’hôtel.

Hôtel confortable avec de jolis bungalows donnant sur la plage
Pros:

L'emplacement en bord de plage et la piscine à débordement
La vue et la tranquillité
Les bungalows originaux et bien aménagés
Les bons jus de fruits
Le personnel à l'écoute

Cons:

La piscine mériterait quelques travaux et une meilleur entretien pour que l'eau soit transparente et qu'elle sente moins le chlore sans les algues sur les parois

Pros:

Der Ort selbst war einfach wundervoll und der Strand mit Abstand einer der atemberaubendsten, die wir je gesehen haben. Die Bungalows waren sehr schön und hatten einen besonderen Charme. Zwar ist die Anlage etwas in die Jahre gekommen und an einigen Stellen deutlich abgenutzt, aber das hat uns grundsätzlich nicht gestört.

Leider gab es ein Problem, das unseren Aufenthalt letztendlich sehr beeinträchtigt hat: In der Nacht hat es wortwörtlich Kellerasseln von der Decke geregnet. Wir sind wirklich nicht heikel und hätten überhaupt kein Problem damit gehabt, wenn sich ein paar Tiere im Zimmer befunden hätten. Dass sie jedoch während des Schlafens auf uns gefallen sind, war für uns sehr unangenehm. Wir haben eine Nacht so geschlafen und am nächsten Morgen war das gesamte Bett voller Kellerasseln.

Ursprünglich hatten wir fünf Nächte geplant, mussten danach aber leider eine andere Unterkunft buchen. Besonders schade fanden wir, dass wir versucht haben zu erklären, dass ein einfaches Mückennetz über dem Bett für uns schon die wichtigste Lösung gewesen wäre. Leider wissen wir nicht, ob unser Anliegen richtig verstanden wurde.

Trotz dieses Erlebnisses bleibt uns der wunderschöne Ort und der traumhafte Strand in sehr guter Erinnerung. Mit einer einfachen Lösung wie einem Mückennetz hätten wir unseren Aufenthalt vermutlich sehr gerne verlängert

Hotel de lujo en Sumba enfrente del mar
Pros:

A ver, el hotel es una animalà, tienes la piscina y la playa, está construido con gusto y estilo. Las habitaciones, el baño, la terraza, el desayuno y el entorno...

Cons:

Está algo apartado de todo y sólo puedes cenar ahí. Es un poco caro para el estándar de Sumba. Nos dieron una habitación con dos camas en vez de una doble.

Au bord de lamer, avec un joli coucher de soleil et des bungalows très sympathiques.
A noter, prix navette aeroport, 250.000 rp

Cons:

Buffet du petit déjeuner très sommaire et froid (meme pour le chaud). Restaurant davantage un snack.

Soggiorno piacevole
Pros:

L'hotel è un po' vecchiotto le stanze in muratura al primo piano sono decisamente meglio dei bungalow un po' spartani, i letti sono comodi e la doccia è calda anche se la pressione non è delle migliori. La piscina è molto bella e anche la spiaggia antistante, meraviglioso il tramonto. Tutto sommato una buona soluzione per un paio di giorni.

Cons:

I tempi al ristorante per mangiare sono biblici anche se ordini il pomeriggio per la sera puoi aspettare anche più di un ora, il pesce meglio evitarlo non lo sanno proprio cucinare anche se lo chiedi solo alla griglia a noi è arrivato completamente bruciato, meglio stare sui piatti locali insomma solito nasi goreng...La colazione piuttosto basic poche cose e qualità medio bassa.

Maybe a little fridge in the room could be handy but all in all we were very satisfied with this accommodation

Disappointed !
Pros:

On the beach with a nice pool and friendly staff

Cons:

I had a bad experience because of breakage of new Tom Ford aftershave costing £140 with no recompense, only a free evening meal costing approximately £8
