렐레와투 리조트 숨바

Beautifully set over the cliff, the resort offers a spectacular ocean view that comes with the villa. The room is spacious, rustic, and wonderfully decorated. It comes with both tub and shower, mini bar and A.C. The infinity swimming pool and the outdoor patio/lounge is perfect incase you just want to stay in and relax in the villa. Keep your eyes on the ocean for the dolphins. If you lucky enough you may spot them swimming in the morning. The staffs are very warm, helpful and ready to assist your needs. The breakfast in general is delicious, eventhough a little improvement on the Hollandaise sauce that come with the egg benedict can make a better taste next time (it was a little too sour). Another suggestion, maybe you can consider to place the toast on the side instead of with the eggs on top for breakfast, in order to avoid soggy bread especially for room service. Apart from that, it's the place to be to spoil yourself while exploring the beauty of Sumba. Highly recommended!

Great location and exceptional service worth mentioning, Ayu, Grace and Nicholas-you guys are amazing !

During family holiday in Sumba, my husband spent most of the days in the hotel room for busy working. He also tended to only eat 1 meal per day, because breakfast was far from the villa and He didn't have time to go there and back... When we ordered room service breakfast, the housekeeping that was cleaning the room already removed it unbeknownst to my husband and before he could eat it...

We have loved our stay at Lelewatu and feel very grateful to have been able to experience staying there. We stayed in a cliff pool view villa, the view is spectacular, the villa itself is so beautifully designed and very clean. The pool is a nice size, very clean and has such a beautiful outlook. The bathtub is lovely overlooking the ocean and fills up very fast with clean water. The bed is comfortable with soft and clean linen. The staff are all very helpful and kind and we really have enjoyed all meals that have been lovingly prepared and delivered to our room. As we were celebrating our anniversary the staff organised a beautiful table setting for dinner which was such a kind gesture. Although neither of these two things would deter us from staying again they are worth noting. 1 the villa floor itself is noticeably unlevel and tilts down a little towards the back wall of the villa. 2 If you are a surfer this location does prove a little difficult and the hotel itself does not have a boat for transfers nor were they able to supply us with a rental bike that has a surfboard rack. As my husband is an experienced rider and has previous experience of navigating in rural areas using google maps he managed, although the trips to find the waves were not too comfortable without having a surfboard rack. If you have your own car or rent a car with a driver that is familiar with the area this may be fine for you to get to the local surf spots which are all around 30 minutes from the hotel. There is surf at nearby Nihi however that beach is private for hotel guests only. This is an ideal resort for honeymooners, couples of families looking for peace and tranquility.

This place was stunning! The views, the room, the staff all were top quality. The food could be improved but very good considering the lack of restaurants in the area. Thank you for an amazing stay.

I stayed in the Dekixe Room Ocean View for 2 nights as I was doing private tour and be out most of the day. The room was exceptionally bigger than expected, I got the 2nd floor corner room which had a nice view of the ocean and you can hear the waves crashing at night. Pros: Big room, nice view and quiet Cons: It's not very clean as unfortunately there isn't a netting over the bed so I come back from tour with gecko poop on bed. A few creatures in the room (small gecko, flying insects, baby roaches and huge spider) - all is fine as they don't bother you much but u did chase the spider out of the room. I upgraded to One Bedroom Pool Villa Ocean View for the last day as it's my birthday treat and that was a big difference! Room was gigantic with the most epic views, the pool was awesome and overlooked the ocean. I ordered room service and sat by the poolside for lunch which was amazing. You still get some bugs though but least it's manageable and some visit by a couple of baby crabs which I thought was quite interesting. Again, they're all very harmless as long as you leave them be. Staff also surprised me with a birthday cake and they decorated the room and that was special! They're super friendly and sweet. Understand they may have some bad reviews but my experience didn't disappoint. Hotel has been around since 2017 and Covid affected the biz and property is huge so of cause maintenance for everything is never easy esp in Sumba. Overall, I will definitely visit again and would just stay in the One Bedroom Pool Villa Ocean View as it's just gorgeous! Special thanks to Grace, Ayu, Gina & the amazing friendly staffs there! 🫶🏻
