Featuring accommodation with a private pool, Morika Villa is set in Rua. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is located 1.4 km from Rua Beach. Fantastic villa, only 4 villas very spacious clean and Private, the staff are amazing and really take an interest in looking after you. Food was very good with good variety. We will be back with a few more friends and family. Someone commented about the road in, and how bad it was, it’s actually not to bad as far as Sumba goes, we hired a scooter from the Villas and really explored the area. We would have stayed loner but unfortunately they were booked out. 5 nights was not long enough.

With a terrace, the 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. Guests can have a drink at the bar. Right at the beach, this small resort is brand new, clean and run by super friendly local staff. From the moment we checked in until our departure, Kule and his team looked after us, and made the stay a perfect one. With only 5 rooms, this resort provides a perfect place to relax and watch the waves, horses on the beach and every now and then also buffaloes.

Lelewatu Resort Sumba features free WiFi and rooms with air conditioning in Watukarere. The accommodation provides nature activities around the island, as well as an outdoor swimming pool and a fitness centre. The rooms come with a terrace with a sea view. What a wonderful destination. This was one of the highlights of our time in Indonesia. The hotel is gorgeous and the villas are large, cozy, nicely designed, with the ocean waves, creating a nice atmosphere. A nice terrace outside where we opted to have breakfast every morning. We used the private pool in our villa every day. We did not want to leave the room to explore the island at times. The staff in particular were incredible and they did their best to make us feel welcome and taken care of. Very avaible via Whatsapp for anything we needed. Always with a smile. It will stay with me for a long time. Their breakfast and dining in particular were a highlight :)

Featuring garden views, Three Queen Villa and Homestay in Waikabubak provides accommodation, a private beach area, pool with a view and a garden. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. Lydia was a brilliant host, nothing was too much trouble, she, organised motorbikes for us as well as a car and driver for our trip back to the airport via a lovely beach club, also horse riding, advice on what to do and see, and she even spent time teaching my husband to cook some local dishes. Her children were absolutely delightful. The new swimming pool was great and will be amazing once the decking is finished. The rooms were extremely comfortable. If you really want to avoid the tourist crowds and spend some time in an incredible unspoilt location then this will be perfect for you. We would highly recommend getting round on the mopeds as it is the best way to see the absolutely stunning scenery (but be careful of potholes and slippery mud if it rains). Thank you Lydia, we had the best time 🙏
