Falling in Love with Manduna 🌺—Incredible Location and Even Better People
From the moment we arrived at Manduna, we knew we had found something special. Lanna welcomed us with a warm smile, showed us around, and we met the owner, who was super cool and always up for a good time. Our room was lovely, decorated with floral touches—super romantic and pretty 🥹. The accommodation perfectly blends traditional and modern elements. We started in a spacious triple room with a great outdoor bathroom—private yet open to nature. Later, we moved upstairs to a room with an incredible view of the Indian Ocean and Manduna's right break. Waking up to that view every morning was a dream. Manduna’s location is unbeatable—right on a quiet beach where the only sounds are the waves, the occasional laughter of fellow guests, or the gentle meandering of a goat or cow. We also loved the exclusivity (no day visitors!), which made the resort super peaceful and relaxing. Hospitality here is top-notch. Manduna made everything easy, from arranging our ferry tickets and transfers to having scooters ready on arrival and a private boat to take us to Tland surf spot whenever we wanted. The staff made our stay memorable, always going the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed. And were SO kind and happy. By the time we left, it felt like we were saying goodbye to friends. The amenities are great. The food was delicious, and the gym, sauna, and ice bath were perfect for recovering after all the surfing. During our stay, a photographer at the resort offered photo and video packages, so we’ve got amazing pictures of incredible memories and waves! Manduna is, without a doubt, one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. If you’re looking for a mix of adventure and relaxation, with a touch of luxury, this is the place for you. Highly recommended! 🌊🏄‍♂️✨

Home away from home
We felt like home in Manduna. Edoardo, Lanna, Elias and the rest of the team made our stay really special. We surfed, did jetski, took the scooters, quads… the resort is full of amazing and fun toys! And the food is delicious, everyday is cooked by the amazing chef. We can’t thank the team enough for making us feel part of the Manduna family since the moment we arrived. Next time we go to Rote we will definitely come back. THANK YOU SO MUCH! We will miss you!

Special boutique resort.
Boutique hotel with a special mood. Large and comfortable room. Good wifi connection. The food service is menu type, with excellent, light, but tasty food. Possibility of enjoying a paradisic beach right in front of the hotel, or a magnificent swimming pool. From the hotel they organize excursions (mangroves and desert island) and there is the possibility of having bicycles, motorcycles, AVTs, etc. The entire team, headed by Eduardo, is concerned that the stay is as pleasant as possible. In short, a very recommendable place to rest for a few days.

Thank you dear Manduna team
The Manduna Resort was our home for 13 days. It was beautiful, the food was excellent and the service was super friendly and warm. Everything was taken care of and our every wish was fulfilled. The room and the pool area were very clean and everyone made an effort to keep everything in good condition. Lanna and Elias took great care of everything, they also organized the outward and return journeys, we only had to organize the flight from Bali to Kupang ourselves. Both are very competent and it is very important to them that the guests feel comfortable and do not have to worry about anything. The owners were also available at all times and always tried to make sure we were satisfied. There are 7 surf spots nearby that are easy to get to. Conclusion: If you want to have a relaxing holiday in a beautiful place with a great host and perfect waves and pristine beaches, you shouldn't miss the Manduna.

A slice of paradise.
What a wonderful experience! From the moment I arrived and Elias met me at the ferry I knew I had landed in paradise and already was thinking of extending me stay. This idea was further cemented upon arriving at Manduna and meeting Eduardo and Lanna. I'd had a long journey and immediately they took care of me, organising lunch and a hot coffee whilst I sat back and admired the view. The location is stunning! Essentially your own private beach. The room was comfortable, clean and the bed was MASSIVE. I had a gorgeous view of the beach from my balcony and I felt like it was a photo. The staff are warm and inviting and made me feel so comfortable. I extended to stay a week and spent my time paddle boarding, swimming, reading, having some of THE BEST massages I've ever had, sipping beers and chatting to the staff. Eduardo, Lanna and their team have created a paradise and I will definitely be back. I was well taken care of and feel like I've made long time friends. Terre mi kasih.

Paradise with great internet
The impressive guest service starts at Manduna resort before you even arrived at the Resort. Manduna organized for me a driver in Kupang , had a amazing recommendation where to stay and what to do in Kupang . At my relaxed arrival in Rote Island i was greeted with a smile. My stay with Manduna Resort was relaxing, inspirational and through the fast internet at the resort a productive holiday. Defiantly will come back to this well designed Resort. Thank you very much Lanna , Elias and all the other amazing staff members who made my get away to paradise unforgettable.
