Welcome to Kuma

Where Lembata meets luxury

Kuma Sea Garden Resort & Homestay is a four-star retreat on the cliffs of Sarotari, Lembata Island — an exclusive atmosphere set against some of Nusa Tenggara Timur's most dramatic coastline.

Private bungalows face the sea, sunsets fall behind Mount Ile Ape, and mornings begin with the sound of waves against limestone. This is a place built for travellers who came for Lewotolok, and stayed for the silence.

Guest Stories

Kept in their memory

I visited here to climb Lewotolok and the food, accommodation and staff were great. The team went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly.

Exceptional view.

Christian Feuillet

Best sea view with Adonara as the backdrop, comfortable bed and room, great hospitality, and a delicious grilled fish.

Tommy Souvanir

Indonesia

Super friendly and helpful team. We stayed 7 days and enjoyed spectacular views from the family rooms. Good food at a fair price.

Balqis Fiscania

Indonesia

Probably the only and fanciest resort in Lembata. Private beach access with limestone cliffs reminiscent of Pecatu in Bali.

Ria

Indonesia

The perfect accommodation choice in Lembata. Most villas face the sea, the sunsets are beautiful, and the atmosphere is peaceful.
