Where to sleep the night before you board
Updated 28 October 2026
Sleep in Labuan Bajo the night before you board. Pickup in Labuan Bajo is free, so a hotel 2 to 12 minutes from the harbour works well. The time and the meeting point are confirmed in writing. Every hotel on this page is a partner hotel, and we sell the room directly at a rate the hotel confirms for your dates.
A bed near the harbour
If the pickup is early, stay close. Meruorah Komodo Labuan Bajo stands in the Marina area, about 0.2 km and 2 minutes from the harbour, with 145 rooms. Komodo Lodge has 30 air-conditioned rooms and is a 5-minute walk from the harbour.
Triple 888 Suites is apartment-style, with 6 units and kitchenettes, about 300 m from the port. That helps a family with a baby, a bottle and an early start.
All three are within a few minutes of the pier, so an early pickup costs nobody much sleep.
Book your hotel and the boat through one WhatsApp
Send us the hotel, your dates and the head count with your boat booking. We confirm the room and the rate with the hotel in writing, and arrival, hotel and pickup sit in one thread with one person responsible.

Families and bigger rooms
Further out, the beach hotels on Pede Beach suit families who want a pool for the afternoon. Laprima Hotel Labuan Bajo sits at the edge of Pede Beach and has its own port for island-hopping departures. Luwansa Beach Resort has a pool and sea-facing rooms, about 4 km and 12 minutes from the harbour.
Near the airport, Crowne Plaza Labuan Bajo by IHG has 199 rooms and suites and a pool, about 3 km and 10 minutes from the harbour. If you land late with small children, the short drive is the point.
Ask us for a family room or two connecting rooms, and tell us the children's ages so we can plan the cabins to match.
From hotel to boat
The pickup covers the airport, a hotel and the harbour.
The default vehicle is a car or minibus shared with your group. A Toyota HiAce with up to 12 seats, or a larger coach, can be arranged on request.
Tell us your hotel when you book, and we write the meeting point into your confirmation. If you change hotel before sailing, tell us the day before and we update it in writing.
FAQ
Which hotels have family rooms?
Ask us, and we confirm the room type and the rate with the hotel for your dates. On this page, the Pede Beach hotels and the airport hotel have pools, and the harbour-side hotels have the shortest walk to the pier.
Do I need to stay near the harbour?
No. Pickup covers the airport, hotels and the harbour, with the time confirmed in writing. A hotel 2 minutes away suits a very early start; one 12 minutes away works if the pickup time allows for the drive.
Is airport pickup free?
Yes. Pickup in Labuan Bajo from the airport, a hotel or the harbour is free. The time and the meeting point are confirmed in writing with your booking.
Do you arrange the hotel as well?
Yes. We do. Send the hotel, the dates and the head count with your boat booking, and we confirm the rate with the hotel and quote it in writing. No booking platform adds its fee, which is why the rate comes in below the booking-site price. The room is its own line, never added to the boat fare.
