Luwansa Beach Hotel

Close to beach, pool and food good too. Best thing was the staff who were very attentive and competent.

Breakfast quite simple, boiled and fried rice, two kinds of fruit juices from cartons, sausages and bacon slices. Every day is similar. Cooks sunny side up or smashed eggs, pancakes and waffles. Room service is good, every day is polite and convenient. Hotel has a well-kept garden area and a small beach. You can order in the restaurant local and european cuisine, free barbecue and tools are provided. Free transfer service from and to the airport.

So glad I chose this small hotel about 2km from the town of Labuan Bajo. Located on a small private beach, it was a wonderful place to kickback after a day of sightseeing. The beach was cleaned every day and comfortable beanbags and sun loungers were provided. The sunsets from the beach were stunning and instantly "instagramable"! My room was spacious with plenty of room for luggage. The aircon worked well and there was a large smart TV. The bathroom had a high pressure shower with plenty of hot water, a sink with basic amenities and a toilet. While not luxurious, it was comfortable and I slept well every night (no noise). Breakfast was served in a gazebo on the lawn near the beach. It was the usual fare - plenty of fruit, bread, croissants and waffles, eggs, chicken sausages and beef bacon, all kind of eggs freshly cooked and rice, fried veg with chicken or fish. The coffee wasn't great but I found a neat little cafe across the road called "Pedro's" that served top-knotch Americano, Cappuccino and other drinks. All in all, it was very good value for money as the hotel provides free pick up and drop off to the airport. I booked my Komodo tour at the hotel and got a great tour for a very reasonable price with East Cruises. Thanks to Melania for her help with the booking, it was all so easy!

We stayed at Luwansa twice for several nights and would gladly recommend it. The hotel is located a bit outside of Labuan Bajo (around 10 minutes by scooter), which makes it wonderfully quiet and peaceful. It’s surrounded by a beautiful garden, has a lovely pool, and even offers access to a small private beach. During our stays, we tried both a standard room and one of the villas. The villa was excellent – spacious, well-designed, and very comfortable, and we can recommend it without hesitation. The standard rooms, while clean and functional, felt a little dated, and the bathroom could benefit from some renovation. All in all, we really enjoyed our time at Luwansa and would definitely choose to stay here again.

Well equipped and sizable room, daily room service, large swimming pool, and above all well trained service at the restaurant that serves good selection of entries. Also, hotel has free car service to/from airport.
