Hotels near Komodo

I was disappointed that they gave us a menu for the meals and when we wanted to order our dinner they said the kitchen wasn’t open today you can’t just walk down the road to get something to eat because there’s nothing nearby they had a kettle but no coffee or toilet paper seemed a little strange to me

Jhuna organized our itinerary nicely and gave us a great walk to see the Komoido Dragons. His nephew, Funny, followed through with an excellent boat tour to scenic locations and snorkeling with a manta. The accommodation was right in the middle of a lone village on the island of Komodo. The people were incredibly friendly. As par for the course in such a village, our place were very basic with fresh water out of a tub. However, the homestay was very clean and the food was excellent. Electricity was incredibly sporadic during our stay (no fault of the homestay) so at night we could not use the fan as we slept. Wifi was also very sporadic at best. The score given is high because this was an experience that we found enriching and was worth doing. Jhuna's homestay allows travelers to stay in the middle of a truly authentic village among similar buildings, nice people, and many animals.

Waterfront nice location. Very clean (Eu standard). Jakie is amazimg guy. He help you to get really decent prices and organise better tour than you find in the "official" Park. You will see a lot of dragons for half of the price. He will get you everywhere, even bargain for you to find ceaper souvenirs. He helped me to buy a genuine dragon teeth-(rare to find) Many thanks and will came back.

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 !

Everything! The staff in all areas were excellent, the food and drinks were great for a remote island & the bungalow was clean & really comfortable. The diving was great even though it wasn't the best time of year for weather. The dive team are fantastic, boats are good & everything was well organised & safe. We'll be back for sure.
