The room was super wide and lighted, very clean Incredible view

We booked a stay for 3 nights together with a fully planned 4-day trip trough the komodo national park. Jhojo did a great job and showed us the all the beautys of the national park. We had a provate boat, with our own captain, Firman and his son. We saw a lot of dragons, visited beautiful snorkelling places. Jhojo guided us also to see turtles and lovley corals! We slept at his wifes brothers house and had an amazing all inclusive package of delightful indonesian cuisine. Though you cant find luxus on this island, everybody is so nice and respectful, like the whole village is one big family (together with dragons in the garden). Big thanks to Jhojo ans his Family for this amazing experience, we can absolutely recommend this to everyone. See you next time Jhojo! 🥰

When you arrive in Labuan Bajo, everyone will try to sell you a multi-day boat trip to Komodo - but there’s a better way to explore the national park: a homestay in Komodo village itself! Jacky is a awesome host, very friendly, speaks great English and he will organize everything for you. We were able to spend as much time with the dragons/turtles/on top of the mountains as we liked without being rushed. He‘s very transparent about the costs and the prices are rather low, considering that you’ll have a private tour and boat. Added bonus: the view from the veranda and the home-cooked meals.

I couldn't imagine better place in the Komodo village, where the rental business started just 6 month ago! Earlier you would even dream to live here with locals, now it is possible. The Jhuna Komodo Homestay is profesjonally prepared to visit tourists, the owner and also park ranger is a very smart and kind man, his wife cooks delicious meals, the house is perfect clean. Everything deserves the highest rating. Other disadvantages are due to the nature of the island. Highly recomended !

We are a French couple and tried this genuine experience for 3 nights on beg December 2023. We are very happy and recommend it, but we believe it must be clear what to and not to expect. We hope the details below will help other travelers. First challenge is to contact Jahiding, the lovely host who is also a komodo ranger. You will get his WhatsApp once you book the stay. Once on the Island, Jahiding will take care of you from A to Z, he stayed with us as the guide during the tours we planed with him and the captain. It's a private small boat (meaning not big) and you can choose where to go and how long you stay at each spot. We believe It was a privilege compared to other tours with dozens of people and timed visits. -Transportation The main challenge is to get to komodo Island with the "phantom" public boat that nobody knows about. It does exist and is actually located in a separate Harbour. Here is the GPS location : -8.484518,119.876788 The name is "TPI Kampung Ujung port". There is a smelly fish market to go through, not hard to miss. Price is 100k IDR if captain does not try to charge the tourist fee. You have to ask people around the boat if it is the correct one as there is no ticket to buy in advance nor any special desk. Just hope on the boat once you are sure it is the right one and pay when you arrive. The boat is mid size and around 20-30 people make the trip. It is not a ferry, it is much smaller, around 20 meters long and 4 meters wide and only one deck with shade. Transport takes 4h and is noisy (depends on the boat you have), travelers are komodo residents which are all very kind. Be prepared for basic confort, no seat no bench, just boat wood. No toilet break neither. The boat schedule as Jahiding told us is as such, and you will have to plan your stay based on this. From Labuan to Komodo Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Between 9am and 11am. From Komodo to Labuan Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday between 9am and 10am.

Nice people, good food, interesting place

Very friendly staff that will go above and beyond! Dive centre is world class. Just show up and all is arranged for you. Plenty to see snorkeling on the house reef as well. Would recommend!!

Our family of 5 had a wonderful stay. The family who hosted us was very kind and helped arrange a local boat to take us to different beaches and snorkeling spots that were absolutely gorgeous (like manta point and pink beach). The host is a ranger at Komodo National Park and gave us a wonderful tour. It was very special to stay in the Muslim village on the sea and have a glimpse of life there. Everyone was very friendly and warm.

meet at the property, shown around and all facilities explained. Was lovely and peaceful. Host was terrific at assisting in arranging transport, recommending restaurants, and things to do. Property was lovely and quiet, in residential area. Really having own transport would be handy but taxis were reliable and reasonable prices. Would highly recommend for family or couples travelling together. Had 2 double bedrooms with ensuites, large kitchen and living area, and the pool was beautiful.
