Komodo Resort

Overall experience is so great! Good to stay liveaboard in Komodo Sea Dragon and having a good instructor Jello! A good diving experience during this holiday and totally satisfied with the services. This is a recommended place to visit and for booking definitely.

The atmosphere on the boat makes people feel comfortable and relaxed. Every meal is different, especially my favourite calamari and laska soup. The taste is impeccable and the ingredients are very fresh. Manager Jello's itinerary planning is very reasonable and experienced. The short three-day and two-night trip made me meet a new friend of the whole ship. We are just like a big family and Keep no secrets from each other. This is a very memorable memory. I will never regret choosing them as a team.

The Island is beautiful and the Resort has a fantastic location, being the only one inside the Komodo National Park. The house reef is fantastic! The price is fair for what it offers since is a full board and food is good and abundant. The rooms are simple but ok, would benefit from an update. The staff is nice but not very well prepared, they communicate very poorly and we as guests lack indication of what do do with Towels and other services. We choose to make our Tours while at this Hotel but prices are outrageous, more expensive than in Labuan Bajo although we are much closer. For a one day tour we paid more than 130 USD/person and my 9 Old Son paid the same! Also they say they include boar transfer but the boat leaves at 8h30 a.m. and even if you have an afternoon flight you have to loose half a day at the resort or to pay extra! Overall we enjoyed ver much the Resort, although there are many things to improve.

I went on a 7 day diving trip on the Komodo Sea Dragon boat. It was a very good experience, the cabins were superb with a balcony and had plenty of space for us three. I also did my PADI Advanced Open Water Diver certification while on the boat. Jello was my instructor, who really put a lot of effort in my diving experience, so I would always feel safe, even in challenging situations like drift or depth diving. He also never got tired of emphasizing the importance of diver safety and 1-on-1 diving with me. The rest of the crew were really nice as well, so we always felt welcomed and cared for. Especially Alan was always so warm and welcoming.

Great relaxing stay. Beautiful Island, good food and drinks, good staff, Great daytrip to Pandar, Komodo dragons, pink beach and snorkling with the Manta’s. The coral in front of the houses are great too for snorkling. The staff drops you off in the dingy for relaxing snorkling.

A simple resort focused on diving. Advantages: - the best, best, best snorkeling we have experienced (we have visited many resorts in the Maldives and Egypt) - possibility of trips to nearby islands and snorkeling and diving sites Disadvantages: - the air conditioning is not powerful enough to cool the villa to a reasonable temperature - the bathroom is essentially a tent attached to the villa and is not air-conditioned at all - wifi practically does not work - basic food - poor service of all employees - the hotel has no possibility of swimming on the beach or pool. There is only the possibility of snorkeling or diving. Our tip: Go to the hotel, because the underwater world in this place is the most beautiful we have seen and still alive.

It was a wonderful week of diving at around the Komodo National Park at this time. Scuba Jello (Cruise Director) and the boat crew made our experience sweeter for our time there and this is not our first time diving at Komodo. We really wanted to dive the South of Komodo for a long time and it was made happened by Jello's team during this trip. As season divers would know, the weather during this time will be rough however we felt very safe and comfortable on board. As for diving, we felt very safe diving with our guide Ronnie ensuring each one of us in the group have the full experience. The "dive centre" and compressor is on another boat called the Putra Sebayur which will tail the Komodo Sea Dragon everywhere it goes. There are pros and cons to have a separate "dive centre". Pros being less noise from the compressor during refilling tanks and also less mess around. Cons being getting in and out most of the time between the main boat and the "dive boat". Putra Sebayur is also equipped with sun deck on the second level and toilet facilities. Overall, there are more pros than cons. We were never hungry during the trip and the food selection was pretty good. The rooms are huge and very nicely designed with ample storage and we had a good sized balcony for our relax time. What I want to applaud is the toilet in the room and also public area. Usually there will always be toilet smell lingering during our LOB experience. I am so glad time time there were no awful smell at all. Everyone on board was always greeting us with smiles asking if we need anything else to make our stay more perfect. Briefing of the day's itinerary was clear, concise and very on schedule. We would definitely return the Komodo and stay on the Komodo Sea Dragon during another diving season. To Scuba Jello's team from the Captain to the Chef, please keep up the good work!

I had the chance to be on their liveaboard for a seven days. Amazing experience ! The whole crew was incredibly nice, helping you with whatever you needed at all times. The diving experience was amazing, we saw manta rays, sharks, turtles and so much more. The dive guides were always very careful about safety. They had also organized other activities such as short trekking to amazing viewpoints, and the view from the boat was stunning. I would definitly recommand this liveaboard to any diver (experienced or less experienced) who whishes to spend a week around Komodo national park.

Magical diving experience with Komodo Sea dragon. Our cruise director is Jello and he’s wonderful !! His English is very good so no problem communicating with him. He’s very responsive and knowledgeable. The dive sites were also amazing and the crews were so helpful and caring, they took care of me both in the water and out of water. It was my first liveaboard and honestly I didn’t expect it to be this comfortable. The room was so nice and well-furnished, the food was so delicious. Just wow!!
