I stayed for a weekend (2 nights) so I could visit Komodo island and the nearby islands. The hotel had a beautiful pool area and view of the beaches and sunsets. The beach itself wasn't great - mainly similar to other Malaysian beaches in terms of water not that clear looking and trash along the beach outside the hotel perimeters. The staff was the highlight, friendly and accommodating. They had packed breakfast ready for my 5:30am pick up and was consistently helpful with taxi arrangements. Breakfast was sufficient, eggs made to order, etc. The hotel was a short 5-10 minute taxi from town and the airport both, or a 25 minutes walk to town which was fine during daylight but a bit dark along side the road at night. The taxis were all IDR 50k, to town, to the airport, to La Cecile for hilltop view of the sunset. Massage services closed on Sundays, so I went to place in town which was great. I'd return to the hotel and town and get in some scuba diving (options all over town) and the cave swimming.
