Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
on going power cuts and no generator in hotel. I can probably do without light for a while but no electricity meant no running water in the bathroom Air conditioning unit under-powered even though room was small. Bathroom was spacious but Breakfast options limited (fruit/fruit juice not included) Food tasted good Beach is beautiful in the picture but rocks as you enter the water makes it difficult (at high tide ok). Very long beach but difficult to walk (sand not so compacted and still at crush coral/shell phase) Staff unfriendly Booked for 10 days and stayed only 2

Set on a beautiful beach with vast ocean views from each room, this is a gem of a small hotel. Staff are warm and professional; the rooms are simple (no phones, basic but ample amenities) but well laid out; the pool area (overlooking the ocean) is ample; the ocean views from each room and from the open air restaurant are gorgeous. It's a 30 minute drive back into town, and there are no nearby restaurants. But those seeking an exceptional ocean-view experience will find it all here.

Découverte de Sumba
Seul hôtel pendant 3 semaines de voyage où il n y avait pas de chauffe eau dans la chambre donc pour boire quelque chose soit vous devez aller en ville (payer le transport car loin) soit aller au resto de Mario. Pas de wifi. la connexion internet pour effectuer le payement par carte de crédit était « branlant » et on s dû essayer à plusieurs reprises. Loin de la ville. La plage étant une plage publique, ne vous étonnez pas si les enfants vous encerclent comme si vous étiez des extra terrestres et surtout vous suivent partout. On n était pas à l aise car on ne savait pas si nos affaires allaient disparaître pendant notre bain. Du coup, on est parti à la piscine de l hôtel. Très belle piscine. Repas excellents. Tout est cher par rapport aux autres îles (Sumatra, Java, Bali et Flores sont moins en ce qui concerne les hébergements, les repas et surtout les excursions). L hôtel Mario mériterait un bon rafraîchissement.

Dejligt hotel med smuk beliggenhed
Vi nød opholdet i en hytte smagfuldt indrettet med terrasse med havudsigt. Fin pool som vi benyttede flittigt da vi var bange for at bade i havet, da voldsomme bølger
