About Wae Molas-Hotel (Bed & Breakfast)

Wae Molas is a small bed and breakfast set in lush tropical greenery, with bright rooms and private en suite bathrooms. An outdoor pool, ringed by plants and sun loungers, is the centrepiece.

Breakfast is served daily in an open-air setting, and there's a shared lounge and terrace. The hosts can help organise Komodo boat tours and diving, according to the property.

Why it works for a stay in Labuan Bajo

Labuan Bajo's harbour area can be busy and noisy, so a garden B&B a little away from it is a peaceful alternative, still close to the boats.

A pool is especially welcome in the dry season, when the sun is strong and the land turns golden. After a day on the water visiting the dragons, Padar Island or Pink Beach, you can cool off and relax in the garden.

Breakfast in the open air sets you up for an early start, and the hosts' local knowledge helps when choosing between day trips, overnight boats and dive operators.

Rangko Cave, about an hour away by road and boat, hides a pool of clear, saltwater lit by sunlight through the rocks, and it's a refreshing contrast to the boat trips. The hosts can explain how to visit and combine it with a beach stop.
