Theodor at Labuan Bajo

Very pleasant stay

The old man at reception is the most unfriendly man I’ve met in Flores. He acts like I owe him money and has a tone as if he’s ur boss. He also charged me 150k for a broken glass, which is just ridiculous and scammy given local prices. Other staffs are very nice though.

What a wonderful find. This is a small hotel with nine lodges on the side of a hill with the most spectacular views of the ocean. The restaurant is slightly higher up and is a fabulous place to eat with views across land and sea. The rooms were spacious, clean and charming with balcony views over the hotel pool and the ocean. Staff were friendly and very accommodating. The receptionist organised scooters for us for three days. The hotel is away from town so scooters or taxi rides are essential to get about. He also organised a small boat to take us to Rangko Cave. The boat was about a twenty minute ride away. We also rode to visit a couple of waterfalls where we swam. We were at the Theodor from Monday evening to Friday morning, when we left for a three day boat trip. That was long enough to see what was around locally. There is a small pool at the hotel which, again, has spectacular views. I would suggest that this hotel wouldn’t be ideal for those who are unsteady on their feet or need wheelchair access. I highly recommend this hotel, it was idyllic.
