Komodo Resort Sebayur

[horn34]

Any tips or stories to share? We are headed there in July for 4 nights. I've already tried to search for specific info on this resort but "Komodo Resort" just pulls up anything with those words anywhere.

- Is Visa On Arrival (VOA) available at the Labua Bajo airport? We are flying in from Singapore
- How long does the boat ride take to the island? Their website says 1:40 but I've seen posts where people claimed it was 30-45 minutes
- Do you need to bring a lot of snacks/drinks/alcohol from LBJ to the resort? I see they have a beach bar but no descriptions

And yes, I emailed the resort a lot of questions and the ones above were not answered.

Headed there in June. Will post info in this forum about the trip. Can’t find any record of VOA at LBJ airport, but I guess the international flights just started recently. I would check with your airline, and see if the online eVisa Indonesian Immigration website offers ability to do it before arrival.

Good luck.

The resort just replied to me and verified VOA is now available at LBJ airport.

They also just verified that that boat ride is normally 40 minutes, not 1:40 like their website says.

If you can just get the electronic visa in advance as @Johncn recommended. It used to be pretty buggy but last time I think it took 10 minutes to fill out and not long at all for the response. Reduces the risk of getting stuck in a line at airport . Not familiar with LBJ airport but in Jakarta the line wasn’t too bad generally but think one time it took 30 or 40 minutes (which after traveling for 30+ hours seems like a really long time ).
