Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Has none of the amenities they advertise...
They say they have 2 bars/lounges, a swim up bar, 24 hour room service, an indoor pool, coffee shop, snack bar and barbeque grills and they don’t have any of these things. If you plan to have a cocktail or two on your vacation you won’t be able to get one here nor any of the other amenities I mentioned. The do call the restaurant “Komodo Bar” but it was out of stock entirely my entire stay while I had no problem getting a beer at any other restaurant or hotel in town. Also, it is about a 15 minute drive from Labuan Bajo town where you will need to go if you want to do a Komodo Tour, dive, snorkel, have dinner or drinks. They have a free shuttle from 7:00 am – 6:00 pm but you will need to be in town before that for any boats going to Komodo, diving or snorkeling and will be in town later than that for dinner so you will end up paying a lot more for their shuttle to and from town than if you just spend a few more rupiah to stay at a nicer place that is already in town. You will spend 100,000 rupiah for every trip to town and for less, you can stay at a nicer place that is already in town and close to the Komodo, dive, snorkel, dining, music fun. Restaurant food wasn’t bad but it is swarming with flies so if you order, you may want to have it in your room although bugs are an issue there as well. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend anyone stay here. It is managed really, really poorly.

Travelled with family and small children
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Dirty sheets and towels. Messaged and emailed the hotel weeks in advanced and two days prior to let them know the number of travelers and hence room configuration. Never heard back and nothing was ready when we arrived so they needed to add extra beds in the room and charge us for it. Woke up in the middle of the night, turned on a small light and bed was full of bugs and cockroaches came out. My wife was completely bitten by who knows what insects throughout the night. Sheets and towels (which we had to ask for) were stained.

Ok stay , reasonable price .
We received an complimentary upgrade to a villa , which was a nice surprise . The staff were very friendly and helpful. The villa room was nice, spacious and had a nice view of the sea. Breakfast was average and there was an egg station and buffet food. The music played at breakfast was not good and really ruined the experience . We didn’t go in the pool as it was not very clean , which was disappointing. Overall an ok stay, but definite room for improvement .

Lovely but beware of theft from room!
Great location on beach, warm sea but not much in the local vicinity. Staff are friendly and free shuttle as and when you need to Lubuan Bajo town is offered, dependent on availability. Although the hotel seems fairly new, the rooms are a little dated. The sea view villas/rooms are preferable with unobstructed views of the beach, pool and sea. However we cannot recommend this hotel - had a substantial amount of cash stolen from the locked room safe. The friendly manager, Sigit, kindly took us to the police station to make a report on his day off, however I fear he has not taken the incident seriously or done any follow up. Despite his promises, he did not contact us again after we checked out, and has not responded to our emails/calls. He confirmed there was no CCTV and it seems quite possible that staff have access to the safe master key - if staying here be very careful. Given that it's a "beach resort" and you'll often find yourselves out of the room for substantial periods of time and not wanting to carry all valuables eg when on boats/diving and swimming this is a very substantial problem. It's a real shame as there's lots to like about the rest of the hotel and staff were mostly very helpful.

Clean hotel, dirty pool and overpriced restaurant.
Hotel itself was nice, very clean. Room was big and had everything one would need for the stay. I would not stay here again tho because of high price you would expect some sort of value for money but: Pool was dirty and the sunchairs were from last century. Restaurant was way too expensive for being such remote location. Paying for bintang 66000 is way overpriced and restaurant would not give me my change correct. When you pay 22% Tax of beer you usually want your money back. Airport pickup on arrival was perfect but when I booked for departure, they forgot and were leaving to airport without me. So not really on point.

Nice, comfortable rooms; beachfront view
We stayed two nonconsecutive nights with a short excursion in between (hotel stored our luggage). The first room we were given, in one of the villas, was huge with a comfortable bed and easy access to the pool and restaurant. The one downside was that it was mildly infested with millipedes (probably harmless but we did not want them in bed with us). The second room was in the main hotel building, less enormous but still plenty spacious. Hotel staff was somewhat disorganized in arranging our shuttle to the airport and in turning off the running water one evening for repairs (!) The pool and restaurant area have a lovely ocean/sunset view, though the ocean water is too shallow and muddy to make the beach good for swimming. The restaurant was quite expensive by Indonesian standards, but had pretty good food. There are no other restaurants in the neighborhood so you need to take the (free) shuttle to the main Labuan Bajo town if you want to eat elsewhere.

Nice hotel with beautiful sunset view
i stayed there for 2 nights. First impression was very good as it was the resort / villa kind of feel which I liked. However, it was not located close to town but luckily they provided free shuttle service from 7am-8pm (only to town, other areas one-way will be charged at Rp 50,000). You could arrange a time for them to pick you up at a location back to the hotel, but there was once the driver forgot to pick us up and we called the hotel after waiting for 15 minutes. Alternatively, you may borrow a phone from any restaurants to call the hotel when you wish to go back. Their airport transfer is free as well. The most amazing thing about this resort is their private beach has a nice view of the sunset. The staff were friendly and they would recommend us the places we can go.

Far from town
Far away from the town so you will be reliant on there shuttle service which was hard to get a hold of sometimes. Wifi did not work both days we stayed. Has nice views of bay and good sunset views. Access to beach but we didn't go.

OK Hotel, but not worth the money
The theme of my stay here centered on the amenities promised were either missing or disappointing. They hotel itself is ok, the rooms are nice, but the rest of the hotel is lacking. The pool was closed the days I was there, the coffee shop is almost never open, and the restaurant is most just tables at the bar. This place is a ways away from anything else, but then does not have the services to make you want to stay at the hotel. The shuttle into town was nice and the beach in front of the hotel is nice. Overall the hotel feels like it wants to be a luxury resort, but does not want to put that extra effort into making the amenities of a luxury resort present. This is a good hotel, but it did not stand out as a great hotel.

Great Rooms, Friendly Staff
Overall our stay at Luwansa was great. There were some problems when I tried to arrange the free airport transportation, when a staff member who didn't speak English answered the phone and then hung up on me. He also wouldn't pick up on a second call when I asked someone who spoke the language to call back. Also, although free rides to town were offered, we were told that we could only have one per day. This wasn't really a problem, but since the hotel is far from town, it might be for other travelers. Overall, though, the staff was great and the room was superb. Breakfast and Dinner in the restaurant were good. Nice sunset view from the beach.
