Moyo Island Resort

Very nice host and good location. The room was nice as well

Very thin wall, you can ear people talking around or in the next room

Location directly at the harbour was great, corals for snorkeling straight ahead, great seafood warung next door. Rooms were comfy, with a balcony overlooking the sea. What made the place special was the host Gina, who was just amazingly helpful and friendly, and helped us sort out quite a bit of our trip across Sumbawa, saving us a lot of hustle.

Only minor things really - a door between the room and the bathroom would probably be appreciated by some, and there is a bit of a lack of shady spots to hang out in the hot afternoon sun, but as i said, minor points. Overall it was a very nice spot to hang out in for a few days. Oh, and there is no wifi, although Gina is happy to provide a hotspot on her phone!

Great place to relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the village. Gina was excellent host and helped us when we needed and made delicious mie/nasi goreng for us when we asked. Good breakfast. Very good house reef where to snorkel.

the location on the beach, with good snorkeling just in front, also very quiet. I stayed 5 nights so I was very pleased with this resort, the only down side but it's not their fault is that there are very few dining options.

breakfast choice is limited.

Location, Location, Location. The resort is at the 'quiet' end of the village away from other accommodation. The Beds were fabulous, and the staff were great. Being able to wonder around the village and try where possible not to intrude on the every day activities was extremely rewarding. Above all our stay was about the water. The Resort is absolute water front and we found coral at our door. This place is not for everyone, thank god. But it is by far the best snorkelling I have done over various parts of Indonesia. If quiet beaches, amazing fish and coral, waterfalls, and cheeky kids are your thing this is the place for you.

Large storms over the last 12 months have washed away the garden at the front of the Resort so it was unprotected in the afternoons from the sun. We just wondered down the beach for a cool drink and shade. The Garden has been re established.

Gina the host of the Resort is one of the nicest we have met during our Indonesia trip. She is friendly, always happy to help,very patient and makes you feel welcome all the time. Meeting nice people always leave a good memory in the journey. Great sunset view from the private patio. Since the hotel is the only one that is away from the other guesthouses and tucked on one side of the beach, it makes a very quiet location to chill and relax (no loud music around).

it would be great if there is a door at the toilet, however it does makes it easy for you to walk straight to the shower after a swim at the beach (right at your doorstep). It gets a bit hot during the afternoon as the room is facing the west side, so make sure the curtain in the room and the rolling curtain at the patio is closed.

Moyo is beautiful. You can snorkel everywhere and see amazing coral and fish and there is a very nice waterfall you can walk to (or rent a motorbike and take a tour to nearby villages) Go early and have the waterfall to yourself, it can get crowded if one of the labuan bajo to Lombok boats visit Moyo. There are a few crowded hotels with a pool and a diving school with noise, on the other end of the bay there is this fairly new place. Your room is 10 meters from the shore. A light sea breeze makes you don't need AC so no humming... it is quiet. Just the sound of the waves. There is No Karaoke on the island. The are a few fine restaurants with fresh fish and lobster on the menu. No electricity during daylight hours. The 2 beds are good, clean bathroom and a nice porch overlooking the sea. Gina speaks good English and is extremely helpful if you ask her something. She can arrange a snorkeltour, rent a motorbike for you or a tour to Satondo but you have to ask her, she is not upselling. The breakfast is included and pretty good.

Nothing. I really liked it there. There is no atm, no supermarket so bring your own fruit. The warung is very small with a poor assortment.

Once you settle into the pace of life on Moyo Island, it is a wonderful place to visit. Gina and the staff are great and attend to any questions or needs you have. We recommend asking Gina to cook all your meals as her food is tasty, healthy and better than anything else we had on the island. Snorkelling, swimming, visiting the waterfall, and relaxing watching village life happen around you are the main activities. We hope you enjoy the island as much as we did.

Getting to and from Moyo Island is a bit rough and managing the various transfers can be stressful. The staff at Moyo Island Resort are very helpful though in navigating all the options. The afternoon heat can also be a bit intense, but lots of swimming helps cools things down.

The resort is near to the jetty and facing directly to the sea, and we enjoy the sunset direct from the balcony. The nasi goreng breakfast was served heartly by the manager Pak Irfan and we enjoy every single of it.

There is no electricity from 6am to 6pm for the whole island. And it apply to the resort as well. Only small fan available in the room to cool us. And i really hope that there is door for the bathroom.
