    Labuan Bajo is a port harbor with its main attraction, the Komodo Dragon. There are day tours that you can take: Komodo Island with five other stops and Rinca Island with 3 other stops. The harbor master closed Komodo Island for 7 days due to weather but Rinca Island was open. The snorkeling is phenomenal with purple, green coral that look like cauliflower and broccoli florets with many colorful fish. There is no need to book tours ahead. You can walk down to the dock area and book with any of the vendors selling packages. Even the LBJ airport has tours available. We rented scooters to visit Rangko Cave and nearby Batu Cermin cave. The ride is beautiful and scenic. There is lots of seafood in this port town ranging from sea and lake fish, lobster, crab and squid. Labuan is worth a three day visit.

    I love it here. The people are so friendly, the food is very good, and the scenery is beautiful. You can book many trips, overland or to other islands, and of course see the Komodo dragon. There are some beautiful beaches too. I will come back again!

    Great area, but the main attraction is the boat trips to visit the surrounding islands, beaches and Komodo dragons. We booked a 2d1n boat trip. We fitted in lots to this short itinerary but a extra night in the boat, as opposed to the land, would have been better. Seemed more to do at the opposite side of the island but its too far for a day trip. Great night market down by the port and lots of fresh fish and fruit available for sale.

    It’s rare I’m writing reviews. So far, I shared only 5-6.

    It’s rare I’m writing reviews. So far, I shared only 5-6. I’m writing only if it was exceptionally amazing experience or a real disaster… It’s the first time for me to share an extremely negative experience. When you arrive at hotel, you expect me to feel minimum trust with it I stayed for 2 nights in this budget hotel. Usually, people traveling to Flores Island to take one of the ‘Komodo island day trips’. They will be picked up very early in the morning (5:30-6:00am). The trip operator gives clear instructions of how to prepare? what to bring? Ect. Due to the intensity of the day structure, the traveler has to bring a breakfast box (because it will be very long, before food can be in reach). I asked the hotel manager if they can provide it to me? She confirmed, mentioning it’s a usual procedure in that area. 5:15 I arrived at the reception… no one was there. Neither the breakfast box. Things can happen, it’s not a big deal… When returning back from the day trip, I asked reception to shortly talk with the hotel manager, just to understand what happened? The hotel manager refused to communicate and just disappeared until I departed the next day. I’ve never experienced before such a behavior, specially from a hotel manager… It raised a big big Red Flag. Bottom line: I’ll not recommend to arrive in this hotel. Basically, It’s not to be trusted.

    Labuan Bajo needs to be careful with how many resorts they are throwing up all over the place. And educate everyone to stay away form the coral and do not touch the sea life. Float and observe. No fins necessary most of the time. You can float and see more and not damage the coral with big clumsy fins.

    The room was really comfortable, clean and big. They served a different breakfast every day. The female staff were really friendly and helpful, I appreciated their honesty. The staff arranged some great tours, especially the day trip to Komodo and various islands. The location is ideal if you need to visit immigration to extend your visa or if you want to visit the nearby hills for a lovely view of Labuan Bajo. It sounds like the guesthouse has some good plans to improve the place further, such as installing hot water in the future

    I really liked how spacious the room was and the fact that they even helped us kindly edit our booking because we had to cut short our trip by one day. The staff was extremely helpful in carrying our bags up and down from our room. The room was clean and well maintained. If you are a solo traveller who’s planning on staying in Labuan Bajo for at least a week or longer, this may be ideal for your pocket, it’s budget friendly. Additionally, they have a cafe downstairs which is easily accessible for some great food options.

    The property was very clean and comfortable. the staff, particularly Imelda, went above and beyond to help me and give me lifts to places as they appreciate the location is a little out of the way. However, it’s a lovely area and I met some local children - a much better representation of the community of Labuan Bajo than any property near the pier. Comfortable, large bed and lovely to have a mini kitchen and be able to make coffee. Very spacious! Only recently on Booking.com, but deserves excellent reviews!

    A really lovely hotel with old-school banana pancake trail vibes. Basic and clean rooms for a very reasonable price. The view from the pool is one of the best sunsets in Labuan Bajo—strongly recommend lounging in the pool with a Bintang at sunset. If you’re looking for a comfortable, quiet base for land trips or a few days of day-trip diving that is perfect for evening relaxation, this is a great pick! Asking about a motorbike rental makes it very convenient to town.

The luxury villa, the bathroom, the food and all hotel facilities are free of charge ( kayak with glass bottom and snorkle are my fav activities) and of course warmest welcome fm all the resort staffs which assist you in everything you need. Well done for Plataran Komodo and big thanks to Sakti, Neta and Willost for making our holiday enjoyable.

    Place was just what we needed for our 2 night stay in Labuan Bajo. Great location close to the port. They organised the one day Komodo island tour for us and were helpful with any requests especially when the Wifi went down they sorted it out immediately. Room was good I would recommend getting the air conditioned room plenty of space and nice to have the mosquito net.

Perfect snorkelling off the hotel jetty with a surprisingly healthy house reef - better than most reefs we have visited in the Komodo National Park.
