Guest Reviews
- Agnieszka (5/5): Overall disappointment. - Selini has a stunning views of the bay being on the hills. But is away from the shops and restaurants.
Rooms are nicely decorated but need tlc. The place is infested with millipedes, they’re everywhere;stairs,rooms,bathrooms and pool. Which makes the stay off putting. The staff could clear them out daily as it’s impossible to walk around without stepping on them! The bathrooms aren’t pleasant and need updating. Breakfast is terrible and overpriced for what is offered. Generally the place doesn’t look as presentable as on the photos.
- yaqun (3/5): -
- Carlijn (6/5): Mooi voor het oog. Niet voor comfort - Prachtig kamer met mooi uitzicht Personeel slecht vindbaar en airco koelde niet goed genoeg om een comfortabele leef temperatuur te hebben op de kamer
- mitrichh (9/5): Расположение в хорошем месте, на холме с видом на залив и порт. Проживание в отдельных домиках. - Расположение отеля, на холме у залива. Замечательный вид из номера на залив, порт и город. Проживание в отдельных домиках. Соседние, не видны из-за зелени с цветами вокруг каждого домка. Хорошая терраса, на которой комфортно и изолировано можно проводить вечера, с прекрасным видом. Персонал отзывчивый и очень доброжелательный, готовый, в меру своих возможностей, выполнить ваши пожелания. Замечательная хозяйка, немного пообщались, даже знает несколько слов по русски)). Кто не любит шумный отдых, это хороший вариант. Очень крутой подьём на холм, извилистые и крутые ступеньки лестниц. Надо при подьёме и спуске, внимательно смотреть под ноги. Особенно в дождливую погоду. Не подойдёт тем, у кого тяжёлый багаж и кто сам не может его доставить в/из номера, т.к. не всегда можно найти в отеле мужской персонал.
Очень громкие вечерние и утренние молитвы с ближайших мечетей)).
- Paulina (8/5): Breathtaking view! - Stunning view! It's worth all the steps 😉 very friendly staff. The room was very clean. Poor and overpriced breakfast. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't expensive - I've just compared to other parts of Indonesia - during our trip, we stayed in 10 different places, and in this place it was just not worth it.
- Carina G. (5/5): -
- Ashlin (10/5): Private and peaceful with incredible views - I highly recommend this accomodation. I booked Selini Hills after a few noisy nights at another local hotel and was welcomed into the tranquil setting of this accommodation . Selini is located at the southern end of the main town centre. Walking distance to all the dive shops, bars, cafes and dining options. The accomodation feels like you’re living in a treehouse in the jungle. It is peaceful, quiet and the staff are sensational. Very helpful and welcoming. The views of the harbour are unmatched. I loved waking at sunrise and listening to the call to prayer. The staff helped me with transfers to the airport and were very accomodating in allowing me to extend my stay. The rooms are maintained to a high standard. I truly loved staying here and hope to return one day soon. I loved everything. I cannot fault this accomodation.
- hayley (1/5): DO NOT wASTE your Time - The room looked beautiful upon arrival. And I was really excited to stay here Well unfortunately the rooms although have nice touches...are pretty disgusting. The bed was filled with crabs,(yes pubic crabs) as well as bed bugs, there was also a blood stain on the sheets and a hole in the mattress... Was very lucky I checked the bed upon arrival as it was infested..the bathroom was also very degraded and worn out... I was thrilled about the view..however it is also right in the center of every mosque in Labuan Bajo, so hearing prayers on full volume, with No sleep didn't sound great...
The hotel is very run down, and needs alot of work, amazing idea, but the owner needs to really clean up the place, exterior of the buildings looks very worn down as well.. Extremely overpriced for what they're asking...
I try not be offensive to any hotel, as everyone is working hard to earn money, however... This was a tough sell for me, I was there and gone within an hour.. I would have toughed it out if there wasn't bed bugs, or crabs in the sheet/mattress...it was appalling but beautiful view..
It's worn out
- Pia (1/5): Nie wieder - Schöne Aussicht Völlig in die Jahre gekommen, schlechtes Preis Leistungsverhältnis
- Jacopo (10/5): -
- Fabienne (7/5): -
- Francoise (7/5): Idéal pour les jeunes roots lovers! - La vue incroyable sur la baie !! la décoration des chambres, du restaurant, très bohème. L’accès à l’hôtel depuis la route , aux chambres, à la réception digne d’une escalade de montagne, exercice rendu encore plus difficile avec des valises.
Attention si vous n’avez pas une bonne condition physique car il y a de nombreuses marches à monter et à descendre !!!
Les prières matinales et interminables de la mosquée tres proche de l’hôtel
- Livia (6/5): Posto splendido ma poco curato - Il posto in se è magnifico. I bungalow si inerpicano sul fianco della collina e sono tutti super vetrati. La vista è spettacolare e l'arredo è particolare e molto bello; c'è una bella atmosfera in generale. Purtroppo l’albergo è in butte condizioni. Le camere sono sporchine e polverose (le tende e le zanzariere del letto erano talmente impolverate da apparire grigie). Il verde che circonda i bungalow è trascurato, e sotto le strutture – rialzate da terra – si trovano mobili accatastati in disordine. Anche la piscina era torbida e poco invitante.
Avevamo prenotato la stanza Ganesha, ma al nostro arrivo ci è stata assegnata un’altra sistemazione con bagno in seminterrato, raggiungibile tramite una scala ripidissima. Dopo aver chiesto un cambio, ci è stato spiegato che la stanza Ganesha era già riservata dal giorno successivo, motivo per cui non potevano assegnarcela, nonostante fosse quella da noi prenotata. Ci hanno comunque cambiata stanza con una con bagno al piano.
La presenza di zanzare e insetti è stata davvero notevole (in tre settimane tra Lombok, Bali e Flores non ne avevamo mai visti così tanti) ma forniscono un fornelletto antizanzare.
L’aria condizionata, era inefficace perché vecchia e perché i bungalow essendo altrettanto vecchi sono pieni di spifferi. Non aiuta la grande vetrata, seppur splendida, che amplifica il problema.
La sensazione generale è quella di trovarsi in un luogo dal potenziale straordinario, ma gestito in modo approssimativo. Un vero peccato.
- Beatriz (7/5): Cabaña en la colina con vistas espectaculares - El sitio es super auténtico, es un hotel boutique en la colina con vistas a la bahía de Labuan Bajo, bastante. Construido con materiales ecológicos y reciclados, se siente un lugar especial. El personal muy agradable y la dueña muy atenta. Super positivo mencionar que a pesar de ser cabañas en medio del bosque, no nos hemos encontrado ni un solo insecto. Es un lugar ideal pero le falta un poco de mantenimiento y un punto plus de limpieza. Un cambio de dos o tres cosas y sería una maravilla de lugar. El camino de acceso está un poco complicado si llueve. Tal y como el nombre indica, el lugar está en un lugar elevado y se esperan escaleras, para nosotros no fue un problema pero no es recomendable para personas mayores o con movilidad reducida. Por estar en la colina y elevado, se escucha todo, el tránsito de los barcos, la música de los hoteles por la noche y la llamada a la oración de 4-5 am.
- Holly McCarthy (me) (1/5): I didn’t stay, you said I didn’t have a booking and then charged me anyways? - Not a single thing You guys told me we didn’t have a booking. We insisted we did. Your staff called their boss. They could not find our booking so we left and booked somewhere else and then you STILL CHARGED ME. so I paid for a room I never received? Further more the stairs are atrocious. You don’t say how hard of a trek it is to get to your hotel. The signs are hard to see so we wandered around for an hour before finding reception. And since it was ALL stairs it was a very hard task.
- shawna (1/5): Vreselijk - Het uitzicht Alles , het personeel was uitzonderlijk onbeleefd .
Er is niks te eten terwijl er een restaurant en zelfs een flesje water is niet te bestellen .
Er staat dat je wat trappen op moet maar het is echt een hele beklimming .
Het bed was ontzettend vies en harstikke hard.
De badkamer was vies en een donkere kelder onder het huisje .
- Brenton (8/5): -
- Cloé (5/5): Difficile d’accès et cabanes pas entretenu, nous recommandons uniquement la suite avec une vraie isolation - Nous sommes arrivés en fin de journée le personnel très accueillant et qui a su répondre à nos problèmes On nous a attribué une chambre qui était une cabane sans porte ni fenêtre ainsi que douche habitée….. pour le prix ce n’étais pas concevable les cabanes ne sont pas du tout entretenu et ne donne pas du tout confiance
Cependant après la remarque on nous a changer de chambre dans la seule suite de l’hôtel et rien à dire ça n’avais rien à voir
Merci au personnel d’avoir su répondre à notre insatisfaction
La mosquée nous a réveillée à 4h30
Et l’hôtel est difficile d’accès avec des gros escaliers et excentré
- Martin (8/5): - Ein leider schon etwas in die Jahregekommene Unterkunft. Personal ist zwar sehr hilfsbereit, aber die Anlage könnte hier und da eine Renovierung gebrauchen. Aussicht ist aber Top!
Unfortunately, the accommodation is a bit dated. While the staff is very helpful, the facility could use some renovations here and there. The view, however, is fantastic!
- Joana (6/5): - Très jolie vue, personnel très agréable et à l’écoute. La salle de bain n’est pas comme sur les photos et n’est vraiment pas de qualité
- sylviechambas (8/5): - Cabanes perchées avec vue magnifique sur la baie et Labuan Bajo
- Florence (6/5): -
- Tisne (3/5): - Juste la vue est sublime pour le reste ça laisse à désirer La chambre ne correspond pas aux photos de la chambre que nous avions réservé, la salle de bain était au sous sol, on y accède par une échelle hyper raide et rien pour se tenir. La salle de bain se trouve dans un endroit exiguë on dirait un cagibi, le pommeau de douche est sale et plaint de calcaire, la cuvette des toilettes est moisie et dégage une odeur nauséabonde, le lavabo fuit… pas une bouteille d’eau pour nous accueillir alors que l’arrivée jusqu’à l’hôtel est sportif… pas de tapis de bain. On dirait que le logement est en train de se dégrader petit à petit bref à fuir…
- Chloé (9/5): - La vue est sublime, la chambre très grande, le personnel adorable. Dommage de ne pas avoir eu une bouilloire, du café et une bouteille d'eau dans la chambre
- Cristina (3/5): Decepcionante - Las vistas son espectaculares
Para nosotros, la ubicación, un poco apartada del centro, perfecta
El personal muy amable Está descuidado
No está limpio
Las sábanas de “seda” son demasiado arriesgadas para un tipo de hotel así (dan grima)
El baño deja mucho que desear
Hay clavos sueltos
Es caro para lo que realmente es
Consejo: pagar allí y antes aseguraos que la habitación es la que realmente habéis reservado.
El “jef@“, de las 3 opciones q hay con el mismo precio, te asigna la que le da la gana.
Nosotros reservamos la que tiene el baño abierto, y nos asignó una que tiene el baño, literalmente, en un búnker bajo el suelo (para bajar tienes que hacerlo por unas escaleras totalmente verticales, y llegas a un zulo sin ventilación, sucio, con poca luz y bichos).
Cuando nos fuimos a quejar de que esa no era nos dijeron que estaban a tope, que no quedaban libres y que el jefe nos había asignado esa…
Finalmente, nos cambiamos de habitación porque otra pareja decidió irse a otro hotel por el estado de esta y nosotros nos conformamos porque era para dos noches
- Sharon (8/5): Amazing location with a view hard to come by… will be returning. - Amazing view of Labuan Bajo & harbour. Very peaceful. Staff very friendly & attentive with each bungalow having its own unique decor. Short walk to town through the village below. If you are challenged by steps this is not your place! n/a
- Любомир (8/5): -
- Tajana (9/5): -
- Valentina (7/5): Carino, comodo per arrivare in paese, anche se le strutture sarebbero un po’ da sistemare e curare un po’ di più. Propri - La posizione vista mare è favolosa La struttura sarebbe un po’ da sistemare, la piscina da curare un po’ di più.
- heinrich (10/5): - Selini Hills is the most tranquil and peaceful place you can find in L.Bajo. As the name suggestes you are on a hill in the forest above the hustle and bustle of Labuan Bajo. If you don't mind stairs you are rewarded with a spectacular view over the bay and soaring eagles above you. If you are a nature lover like me you get a bungalow with a lot of birds and other wildlife around. Every bungalow is unique and you can see the love for decoration and detail by the owner. Speaking of, the owner is a very kind greek lady, she is ready to help you with everything you ask for and btw serves the best souvlaki east of Bali.
The luxury you get here ist no fancy cocktail or private pool, but a kind of hippiestyle place in nature. I cound not recommend ist more! There are downsides too. The most anoying are the callers of the mosques of L.Bajo trying to outcompete each other in volume. But thats not the owners fault. I got used to it after some time and even missed it a little back home. The stairs between the bungalows are steep so watch your step (especially in rainy season) but in my opinion they enhance the feeling of secludedness and jungle feeling.
- Baseggio (9/5): Location molto particolare nella natura, le casette sono molto belle, adatte però a che non si fa problemi a fare un po’ - Le case sull’albero molto belle, l’ambientazione e i servizi della struttura. Il bagno, la zanzariera e il caldo dato dal malfunzionamento del condizionatore
- Ricky (7/5): - camere con vista e location sono bellissime.
non è molto comodo per raggiungere il centro, ma perfetto come appoggio per una notte se si vuole proseguire con il classico tour in barca.
- street (7/5): Fab location with great views and balcony’s - Views were amazing and staff and restaurant brilliant. Rooms were decorated really well. Water did go off in rooms and WiFi was varied
- Muhammad Hareez (7/5): -
- Ogryzek (1/5): - La photo avec la vue nous a donné envie jusqu’à ce que le réalité nous rattrape. L’hotel se trouve dans une zone complètement excentrée. L’accès est tres difficile et il n’y a personne à l’accueil. Les chambres ne sont pas équipés de portes avec des serrures, les draps ne sentent pas la lessive, la climatisation ne fonctionnait pas, il y avait qu’une prise dans la chambre, on avait deux verres d’eau sales et pas une bouteille d’eau pour nous accueillir etc… je ne retournerai jamais dans cet hotel, et je ne le recommanderai à personne.
- Salvatore (4/5): Assolutamente da evitare. - Solo la vista sul porto. La struttura è totalmente trasandata e lasciata a se stessa. Abbiamo prenotato un po’ scettici per i commenti, ma poi si sono rivelati veritieri. Le foto non corrispondono alla realtà e sono molto vecchie. Abbiamo soggiornato qui tre notti ma al check-in ci è stata data una camera diversa da quella prenotata, sporca, piena di polvere, zanzariera inutilizzabile e con un bagno non commentabile, pieno di muffa, insetti e ruggine ovunque, accessibile da una ripida scala molto pericolosa. Al nostro reclamo ci è stata cambiata la camera, meglio rispetto alla precedente ma comunque scomoda, non curata e piena di polvere. Le camere non si possono chiudere, viene fornito un semplice lucchetto che attacca i pomelli, ma lascia le camere semi aperte facendo consentire l’ingresso di insetti ed animali. La posizione è molto scomoda rispetto al centro del paese e scollegata dalle strade e dai servizi principali. Lo staff è insufficiente, alla reception non si trova quasi mai nessuno e la colazione è inesistente.

- Craig (6/5): -
- Thea (7/5): A short stay before departing for a two day liveaboard. Interesting hotel, strikingly designed around rocks and a steep - Fabulous location. Stunning views. There was no food available when we arrived (our flight was delayed). The staff helped us to order take away though.
- Любомир (10/5): -
- Nil (8/5): - La vista y el estilo playero El lavabo y las plegarias musulmanas a las 4am, se escuchaban muchisimo!
- Annabel (7/5): - Mooie locatie met fijn uitzicht en een ruime kamer. De wifi was ontzettend slecht en het restaurant had niks op voorraad.
- Hamza (3/5): Not recommended - La posizione The place is outdated and poorly maintained. The bathroom offers no privacy and was filthy to the point of being disgusting. The overall experience was uncomfortable, and the environment was far from relaxing. I would not recommend it.
- Shivani (8/5): -
- Sara (7/5): -
- Rhiannon (6/5): -
- Valerie (7/5): deco incroyable mais pas tres confortable - la décoration et le lieu incroyable la propreté notamment de la piscine
le lit peu confortable
- Selina (5/5): -
- Pietro (8/5): Labuan bajo agosto 2025 - La tranquillità...tranne che purtroppo alle 4.30 del mattino incominciavano i cori delle moschee La struttura e mal tenuta.. ma a noi andava bene
- Zera (10/5): -
- Mickael (3/5): Très déçu - La vue dans certains bungalows (mais pas tous) L’accès très difficile, ne convient pas à tout le monde. Malheureusement ce n’est pas mentionné dans le descriptif. La circulation sur le site est compliquée, vraiment beaucoup d’escaliers rudimentaires et escarpés.
Gros doute sur la propreté : les draps avaient une odeur et semblaient déjà utilisés, la piscine : on ne voit pas le fond… ni ses pieds à 1m ! Je passe sur les nombreux détails tels carrelage cassé, etc.
Les photos ne correspondent pas à la réalité et le prix en devient complètement disproportionné.
- caterina (6/5): -
- Manon (9/5): - Nous avons apprécier le cadre et la sympathie du personnel. Le restaurant était très bon et donnant sur une très belle vu. Marilen était très accueillante et toujours de bon conseil pour les activités à faire aux alentours ainsi que pour les adresses en termes de restaurant ou de pharmacie ou de téléphone. Super séjour merci beaucoup!!!! I & M Rien
- Modolo (8/5): Impagabile contesto, suggeritissimo a chi ama viaggiare e soggiornare in contesti autentici - Luogo di particolare fascino e straordinariamente caratteristico. Si avverte la storia di chi l'ha curato, vissuto e personalizzato. Raccomandato per veri viaggiatori. Vista davvero eccezionale. Da valorizzare ulteriormente il servizio e la cucina del ristorante. Staff gentilissimo e disponibile, ma difficoltosa la comunicazione in inglese.
- Patricia (7/5): Vue fantastique mais... - Nous avons aimé la vue superbe sur la baie de Labuan Bajo, le soleil couchant face au balcon et le style balinais des cabanes, ainsi que la décoration du restaurant L'établissement n'est plus suffisamment entretenu. (Nous y revenions pour la 2eme fois avec plaisir mais nous avons été déçus) Le manque d'entretien donne une sensation de manque de propreté. Le petit déjeuner est décevant.
- Martina (10/5): Ottimo e rilassante - La struttura é molto curata nei minimi dettagli, le camere hanno una bellissima vista. Abbiamo fatto colazione e cenato nel ristorantino della struttura ed abbiamo trovato tutto buonissimo. Lo staff é molto disponibile e gentile e la proprietaria Seline é molto carina, sempre presente e attenta ai clienti.
- Raoul (8/5): -
- Claudia (9/5): Romantic place - Le stanze erano stupende, lo stile romantico le rende davvero accoglienti e si aggiunge un patio vista baia meraviglioso Il contesto attorno alla struttura è particolare ma fa parte di Labuan bajo e non deve penalizzare la struttura stessa.
- Gaia (9/5): - Bellissima struttura da cui si gode di un tramonto mozzafiato. Ideale per stare in pace e tranquillità a un attimo dal porto.
Buon cibo al ristorante della struttura.
Camere deliziose arroccate sulla collina, molto particolari La posizione non è centrale, un po’ defilata. Personalmente a me è andato benissimo così ma se ci si aspetta di essere nella via centrale non è il posto adatto.
- Maya (10/5): Absolutely perfect - charming villas, amazing view, and friendly staff - Everything about our stay at Selini Hills was truly perfect. The view was insane first of all, the most picturesque look out over Labuan Bajo. The accomodation was completely gorgeous, so charming and filled with so much character, it felt very homely. It honestly felt like we were in Greece. The staff were very lovely and the owner really did go above and beyond to make our stay all that it was. Highly recommended getting the chicken souvlaki, everything from the pita to tzatziki is homemade and it was sooo yummy. I thought the location was great. It was very close to the Main Street, about a 10 minute walk and not even a 2 minute bike. The bed was comfy and the ac worked very well. And my favourite part was probably the pool!! There is honestly nothing I didn't like about my stay. My friend and I had such a great time. So many of the reviews I read of this place seem to me completely unfounded. The steps and the hill are such a minor inconvenience for such an amazing view and charming accomodation. And the owner has no control over the Mosque, it is after all a Muslim country. I really do rate this place 10/10, I highly recommend stay here if you come to Flores!!!
- Raoul (8/5): -
- Erlina (10/5): Awesome experience. - Beautiful property, I enjoyed sunset viewing from the balcony. We did some family photos around the property as well, because every corner is gorgeous. The room and bathroom has rustic feel, but very clean. Host is very friendly and helpful. I would return and book the new suite, which is completely enclosed with ac and may keep the room cooler. I really enjoyed my 2 night stay with my five year old and hubby. The only thing I don’t like is it’s very hot in the afternoon from direct sun. But it didn’t bother me much, because I would be in the swimming pool around that time. Night time is pleasant.
- Ambre (5/5): Bof - Vue Les équipements sont vraiment insalubre. Ce n'est pas foncièrement sale, mais comme tout est vieux, cela donne cette impression.
- Leonardo (8/5): -
- Lee (10/5): Fun, quirky, rustic beach style with lovely little pool and amazing views - We loved this place, we adored the rustic quirky style and the views are incredible, best in the harbour. There are some negative comments about the steps but I’m not sure what people expect when they get such amazing views and they really aren’t that bad anyway. Staff and owner are great and gave us some great little tips about the island, especially a hidden away cool little beach for sunset with a bar and a few swings on the beach and a rope swing into the water which the kids loved. We loved staying in a slightly different place to a normal hotel feel. Nothing. Loved it
- Dana (8/5): - Die Lage und die Einrichtung. Wie die Besitzerin mit den Angestellten um ging. Man hatte das Gefühl die Mitarbeiter werden nur herum kommandiert, die Stimmung war deshalb eher bedrückend. Auch ihre Befehle über den ganzen Plat zu hören war eher anstrengend.
- Daniel (7/5): -
- Rossi (3/5): Drasticamente tragico! - La posizione e lo stile dell’arredamento sono molto carini! La struttura nonostante il potenziale non é per niente pulita, non rispecchia le foto pubblicate su Booking.com.
Ragnatele da per tutto, tende e tessuti della camera macchiati, bagno sporco con ragnatele e servizi igienici non adeguati ad una camera! ( lavandino piccolo e sporco e miscelatore che non funziona bene ). Abbiamo chiesto alla responsabile( una signora Greca) se potevamo cenare presso il ristorante dell’alloggio, ci ha risposto di si, ma quando siamo arrivati per ordinare ci viene detto che si poteva ordinare solo 2 tipi di piatti ( nasi goreng e mie goreng, quando nel menu c’era una gran varietà di piatti) . Per la colazione stessa cosa, disponibilità solo di pancake ( senza niente ) tè o caffè !
- Salomé (10/5): Le "whaou" hôtel de Labuan Bajo ! - C'est le genre d'hotel qui a le "whaou effect" en arrivant. On s'y sent tout de suite bien.
La vue est magnifique tout comme la decoration des chambres, du restaurant et des jardins. Le coucher du soleil depuis la piscine est époustouflant. Le personnel et la propriétaire sont disponibles et aux petits soins. L'hôtel est éloigné de la route principale donc pas de bruit de voiture. Les rideaux ne sont pas opaques donc la lumière du jour rentre dans la chambre dès les premiers rayons de soleil. Vous serez aussi peut-etre réveillé par les oiseaux, grenouilles ou coqs aux alentours.
La moustiquaire ne fermant pas complètement, des moustiques peuvent s'introduire pour venir dormir avec vous. Prévoyez aussi au moins 30mins pour le petit déjeuner (surtout si vous avez un horaire de départ précis) car ca peut prendre du temps
- Pernille (5/5): -
- Isabel (9/5): - Vistas increíbles y precioso Q el baño sea al aire libre
- MEIJUN (3/5): 看到很多差评,以为漂亮的房间和风景能够抵消掉卫生等不足。然而根本就不是!!房间破旧且脏,进门就能感受到潮湿,价格还不便宜,本次巴厘岛之行住过最差的。 - 能遥望港口,很漂亮 太破旧了,床上用品看着很脏,厕所简陋,且没有任何洗漱用品。有壁虎,旁边念经的声音很大。房子在山上,需要步行一段十分破旧的山路,晚上回去的时候很黑,挺吓人的。早上退房老板都不在。
- Klara (6/5): - Staff were nice, thought we could manage the steps after reading reviews but was extremely challenging with a suitcase, breakfast was basic. Not sure if it’s worth the price, good location. Floor was a bit sticky and toilet didn’t flush all the time.
- Joel (9/5): A great stay for a couple of nights with a pretty central location that had loads of character and charm. Stairs didn’t - Very quirky accommodation, the view was superb and the staff all very helpful and friendly There were numerous leaks in the bathroom which although wasn’t concerning for a hygiene point of view, it was a bit soggy and yuk on the floor including around the toilet.
- martha (10/5): excellent stay,friendly staff -

- david (7/5): Un alojamiento para aventureros - La propietaria Las escaleras
- Guest (8/5): Gorgeous views! - This was a beautiful, rustic stay. The location is amazing overlooking the harbour (just expect an incline to your room!) with beautiful balconies to enjoy the sunset. The cabins are beautiful and have an outdoor bathroom. We didn’t eat here but there is a restaurant onsite which looked lovely.
- Melissa (3/5): - There was no one at reception or to help us with bags to get up the steep uneven steps/path to the accommodation. The mosquito net was broken and dirty, the bar only had beer or soft drink and the coke tasted flat. No food at 730 for any dinner even though there was a menu. The noise was bad. Ships sounding through the night very loud, the prayers very loud at 4 am waking us up. I was hoping a nice tree top accommodation would be peaceful and beautiful but it was so far from peaceful
- morin (1/5): Très décevant à éviter - Je suis extrêmement déçue par mon séjour dans cet hôtel. La salle de bain ne ressemblait en rien aux photos présentées sur Booking : elle était vétuste, sale, et dans un état limite insalubre. Il y avait des traces de moisissure, le sol n’était pas propre, et une odeur désagréable persistait. Pire encore, l’eau de la douche était froide, ce qui rendait la toilette très désagréable, voire impossible. Ce n’est clairement pas ce à quoi je m’attendais pour le prix payé. Je ne recommande pas cet établissement.
- Laura (1/5): Atroce - Horrible ! Le prix est exorbitant pour ce que c’est ! Les logements sont dangereux, sales et chers ! Les draps sentaient vraiment mauvais. On a demandé à changé de chambre : même chose. Nous avons finalement quitter la chambre à 1h30 du matin pour trouver un autre hôtel en urgence. Après cette expérience, j’ai regardé les avis (ce que j’aurai du faire avant). Il s’avère que cela fait des années que des clients se plaignent des mêmes problèmes que nous mais rien n’est mis en place pour améliorer les choses. Un conseil: fuyez !
- Bianca (9/5): - Der Ausblick ist der Schönste in Labuan Bajo. Die Betten sind sehr bequem und die Zimmer sehr einladend und gemütlich eingerichtet. Etwas weiter entfernt vom Zentrum aber noch bequem zu laufen.
- verena (6/5): Eine Erfahrung wert, ein zweites Mal leider nicht. - Schöne Einrichtung, tolle Aussicht. Nettes Personal. Der Gärtner ist sehr fleißig und ist bereits dran viele Dinge zu Reparieren im Hotel. Mit paar Handgriffen, kann es wieder ein tolles Hotel werden. Wunderschönes Kaffee zum Frühstücken. Tierexkremente im Bett. Ein Kopfkissen hatte einen langen Kot Streifen und im Bett unter der Bettdecke war Mäusekot.
Alles etwas baufällig. .
- Susanne (1/5): Absolut nicht zu empfehlen - Die Lage ist wunderschön, aber nur für Touristen mit ganz wenig Gepäck. Die Anreise mit Koffern ist nicht zu empfehlen Das Zimmer war bei Anreise völlig überhitzt. Die Klimanlage funktionierte auch später nur sehr schwach.Die Handtücher und das Bettlaken waren nicht sauber.
Die Aussentoilette und Dusche waren von außen durch alle Bambusstangen einsehbar. Die Toilettenbrille wollte man nicht benutzen.
Wir sind dan sofort wieder abgereist, da jede weitere Minute unerträglich gewesen wäre.
Da keiner der anwesenden Personen der englischen Sprache mächtig war haben wir auch auf eine Regelung bzgl.der bereits bezahlten Rechnung verzichtet
- Heiko (8/5): Despite the noise issues, I liked this place. - I like the rustic style and feel about the place. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room had a fantastic view from balcony over the harbour. AC and fan in room which was good. Several noise issues in surrounding areas which is not the properties fault such as a big event that was going on that day from mid day to about 2am with heavy base music blaring, 4am the Mosque across the road started its paraders and at 5am the roaster started to cry. So basic didn’t sleep much. Bit more attention to cleanliness could be done.
- Lucas (4/5): Nice Place but you Can Tell that everything is old - Nice view Really loud and Everything was old and broken
- SHIRLEY (5/5): Not worth the effort involved to stay there. - The room was spacious ,quirkily decorated with some interesting local artefacts. The air con worked o.k and kept the room reasonably cool. The bed was comfy and there was a great view of Labuan Bajo harbour from our balcony. We were aware that the hotel was on the side of a hill,however we were not prepared for the very steep climb up poorly lit and unevenly constructed steps[we arrived in the dark]. Our room was near the upper limit of the hotel grounds and carrying our bags up there was hard work. The few staff we saw were pleasant and helpful in a limited way.Breakfast was very basic and took an age to prepare. On our first morning we took a taxi into LBJ ,had a look round, some lunch and bought some supplies . Arrived back around 3.30 pm and stayed in our room until the following morning, we did not feel it warranted the effort of going back out!
- Manon (7/5): Amazing sunsets! - The view was amazing! We watched the sunset every night from the balcony. And the room looked very cute. There was an extra fan in the room. The room could use a big update and a good cleaning! The decorations were a bit old, they could be cleaned or renewed. Because there were a lot of holes in the walls, there were some mosquitos and geckos in the room. They should put a mosquitonet above the bed! Lastly, there is nothing the hotel can do about it. But because of the thin walls, I was woken up every morning by the mosque at 4am even with earplugs in.
- Anna (6/5): Relació-qualitat preu no gaire bona - Ben situat amb boniques vistes i molt diferent a la resta d'oferta de Labuan! Faltava neteja, els llençols feien olor a humitat, la mosquitera plena de forats i el lavabo bastant brut. Hi ha moltes coses/zones que es veu que no estan gens ben mantingudes al llarg del temps. Una llàstima perquè el lloc, les cabanes i l'entorn és ideal i té molt de potencial.
Crec que pel preu que s'ofereix tot això hauria de millorar força.
- Kaknika (5/5): Staff is friendly and helpful. View is great. But I would definitely not come back due to security reasons and noise. - The view is absolutely beautiful and location is good. The hotel driveway isn’t very accessible, with quite a few stone stairs. The room is very dusty and in sore need of renovation. The property doesn’t feel secure. It gets very hot during the day, as the room is quite airy and the air conditioner couldn’t cool it down. It can also be very noisy when the town prayers are broadcast over loudspeakers — they will wake you up at 4:30am and go on for about 20 minutes. Bring earplugs.
- Haley (4/5): Would not recommend unless u get the suite - Beautiful place with good views but most definitely needs some work When I arrived i was brought to a different room than i booked. After asking if i could have my room that i paid for i finally got moved. Once getting to the room the doors didnt lock bathroom door was broken, and the shower head fell off when i went to take a shower. I told the staff i am not comfortable sleeping in a room that doesnt lock and i was brought to a new room that was so dirty. The doors were also cracked open a bit for bugs to come in always. And mosquito net was to small for the bed and had holes all in it so i was eaten alive by mosquitos and woke up to lizard poop all over me, the bed sheets the floor. Honestly better to just sleep outside.
- Matthew (4/5): Great room though hard to get too - The room itself was lovely and large, with a great size balcony overlapping the harbor that allowed for lovely views. The stairs getting there were difficult. Up a hill then some stairs, to go down then up again to get to the room, it was like a hike. The bathroom was down a ladder in a dark room that made it smell damp at all times. And for the price point paid I feel like a breakfast should be included.
- Nathalia (1/5): Don't recommend. - The view is like the pictures. Great view. Facilities were not good. We had problems with the toiled as we got there, than cleaness wasnt good either. Looked the moskito net hasnt been cleaning in a long time. For the price we paid we got a much better price and go and Watch the sunset from a restaurante or something
- Chris (7/5): Quirky unit with fabulous views - Unbeatable views across the harbour and great sunset views. The rooms are very quirky as you would expect in alternative accommodation/ the bed was comfortable, the hot water was good and the WiFi was very satisfactory. My wife loved the decor but each to his/her own. The access is very difficult with wheeled suitcases due to several sets of rocky steps - back-packs would be easier.
- Sebastien (7/5): Nice sunset view from the balcony - The rooms are very spacious with a nice woody/beach decoration, a great balcony and a very nice view over the harbor and great sunset pointing direction. Quiet area despite the prier calls and easy access to the main road with lot of eating options A lot of dust in the room and in all the linens, curtains, mosquitos nets up to getting some instant allergies while getting to the bed and sofa. The swimming pool water not very clear neither. Restaurant very limited choice
- Vera (6/5): Es war okay für die zwei Tage, man hat eine schöne Aussicht. - Der Ausblick war sehr schön. Es hätte sauberer sein können. Es waren überall Spinnweben im Zimmer, es wirkte eher nur oberflächlich geputzt. Der Pool war sehr dreckig, unsere Badesachen haben sich total verfärbt. Mein Mann hatte wegen Sonnenbrand ein T-Shirt an, das mussten wir wegschmeißen. Wir wollten dort Mittagessen und haben eine Karte bekommen, von der aber nichts verfügbar war außer Pommes und Spaghetti. Das hätte man vorher sagen können.

- Catalina (5/5): - The room was okay, the view is excellent. We booked a room for 2 nights with breakfast included. On the 1st day we didn't get any and on the second day we were told there's no breakfast. We told the women that was there that we asked for breakfast last night and we were told to come between 7-10 to have it. She said we won't get any. We argued a bit and eventually she prepared 1 pancake each and coffee which I can't consider as breakfast. When we checked out we were told we have to pay for it and the lady called her boss to tell us to pay. The boss told us on booking it's breakfast included but it's not actually. So a scam from the hotel. We argued again and left without paying obviously. There's also a lot of noise during the night and we couldn't sleep well. For this money, there's no point booking this place. I regret coming here
- Leonard (3/5): - Tolle Location aber...
Die Räumlichkeiten sind sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Vieles ist dreckig und die Kissen waren leider unterm Bezug angeschimmelt.
Das Bad MUSS renoviert werden.
Die Tür lässt sich von innen NICHT ohne weiteres Abschließen.
Den Zustand würde man bei einem günstigen Hostel erwarten, aber nicht bei dem Preis und der Darstellung in der Booking-Anzeige.
Die Klimaanlage braucht zudem sehr lange, bis sie den Raum gekühlt bekommt und ist an heißen Tagen nicht ausreichend.
Wir waren in der "Villa" Nr. 2
Bei einem anderen Preis hätte ich nicht gemekert, aber so muss ich leider meinem Unmut kund tun.
