BRAND NEW Rua Ocean View with Balcony - Sumba

Mellissa Siena AnakRating, 5 stars5 months ago

Umarato Resort is an absolute gem for those seeking a serene and private escape in Sumba. Perched high on the hills, the resort offers an uninterrupted, breathtaking view of the ocean. Watching the sunrise from this vantage point was a truly magical experience. The infinity pool, seamlessly blending into the ocean’s horizon, is nothing short of spectacular. The resort is equipped with fully stocked amenities that ensure a comfortable and luxurious stay. What truly sets Umarato apart, however, is the exceptional staff. They strike the perfect balance between being responsive to your needs and respecting your privacy. A special shoutout to Ernesta, our on-site focal point. Always cheerful and ever-smiling, she went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Her helpfulness, local knowledge, and genuine connection with the community added a unique charm to our visit. Umarato Resort is a haven of tranquility and impeccable service—highly recommended for anyone visiting Sumba!

Wera Beach Villa kelapa

Silke & RiyantoRating, 5 stars22 months ago

We are enchanted by this quiet and beautiful little villa. Loved the room setting, the spacious bathrooms, the big terrace and all these little things at the furniture and interior: The shell drawer handles, the Bali style kitchen, the French touch in handicrafts and pictures. The beach in the front is big and empty, we had it for our own. We felt at home and special at the same time. Check in with the lovely and helpful Kristina was easy and she was available if we needed something. Definitely recommend it and we'd come back, if we travel in the region again. Fair advice: The beach is 10 km outside of Waingapu and 1.5 km away from the main road. Make sure to have transport to and from the place organized and stock up on food and drinking water, if you don't want to eat at the nearby resort restaurant.

A thatched-roof pavilion is positioned beside a turquoise pool, surrounded by lush greenery and comfortable seating. The beachfront view is complemented by sun loungers along the edge, with palm trees swaying gently in the background under clear blue skies.

Suite 3 - Sumba beach House

JorienRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We had an amazing stay at Sumba Beach House! The location is just stunning, right on the beach, having a drink with sea breeze coming in is just magical! The staff is extremely friendly, Kule helped us arrange scooters and transport and was easily reachable through text. We loved exploring Sumba and meeting the local people. I think this hotel is one of the best in price quality compared to others in Sumba.

A spacious outdoor living area showcases a thatched-roof structure adjacent to a clear swimming pool. Comfortable seating is arranged under the roof, surrounded by tropical plants. A wooden deck leads to the sandy beach and ocean, with palm trees gently swaying in the background.

We spent three nights at Umarato Resort, it was amazing, an actual dream with open eyes. Evelin and her stuff were perfect, helping us in all our needs. The pool and the open air cinema are incredible. We had a amazing experience also ride horsing on the beach. Hope to come back any time soon! We were very lucky being the only guests in the hotel and also because of this I can easily say that was the best resort experience in our life so far!
