At the hostel, each room includes a wardrobe. At Bajo Bunkhouse every room has air conditioning and a shared bathroom.

I stayed for two nights at Bajo Bunk House. Unfortunately, I got sick on my way to Labuan Bajo, so I needed to rest all day. It was clean and comfortable, and the host made me feel like being home. They cared for me and helped me with organizing my ferry ticket back to Lombok. I could also rent a motorbike directly from her. If I'll come back to Labuan Bajo, I will definitely stay there again!

Boasting a garden, shared lounge, terrace and free WiFi, De Nata is situated in Labuan Bajo, 1.2 km from Pede Beach and 2.2 km from Wae Rana Beach. The accommodation features evening entertainment and a shared kitchen.

At the hostel, the rooms include a desk. All rooms are complete with a private bathroom and air conditioning, and some rooms are fitted with a balcony.

Location of this place is excellent, about 3 minutes walk up some stairs between buildings from the main street (that's the "shortcut", Google maps will tell you to go around, just ask at any travel agency if not sure). Kitchen was basic, but sufficient to make tea/coffee and some food if you want to cook, there is a fridge. As mentioned in other posts, toilet stalls have curtains instead of doors - I didn't find this problematic. The dorm room has an entrance straight onto the alley, weird first, but you get used to it, it's the way a local house is set up in these parts. The dorm room has good A/C and is dark enough to sleep with curtains closed. There is a terrace on the upper floor to sit on, the view is a bit obstructed by a new construction next door, but still nice breeze when hot and a sea in the distance. I was told they plan on building another terrace/hang out space in a house just across the alley. Overall the whole place has a nice relaxed vibe, you feel you are living like a local, I loved staying there. Wanted to extend, but they were full and I had to move to another place 20min walk away :(

Super friendly owner, great hospitality. She help us organize tours, bus tickets and scooter rental. She recommended some good restaurants also. We felt a little sick during our stay so she cooked for us and we didn't have to left our room. Room was big and clean, no hot water but that didn't bother us. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was good. Location was little out of town, but with a scooter thats not a problem. Cute childrens and cute dogs. We felt really welcome and would love to come back someday.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff is awesome! Also, I love the decoration of the place, it's perfect for backpackers! A lot to do inside the hostel aswell and you get to see amazing sunsets in the terrace. They do a group activity every week, including BBQ, cleaning the beach, beerpong... They also offer laundry service ;)

    La Boheme is a colourful oasis away from the town centre (but not too far to make it effortful to head out for dinner). A good backpackers hostel and very easy to socialise / meet fellow travellers if you wish. Also right on the harbour front so access to some incredible sunsets! The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Nothing is too much effort. Breakfast - a delicious start to the day. Fresh banana pancakes, fruit and rice option if you wanted.

    absolutely amazing hostel (probably one of the best I’ve stayed in) - great location with it being close to the harbour, super friendly staff, clean and comfortable bed with regards to the shared dorm rooms, an incredible rooftop pool and view to go with it, and also a great selection of food options to choose from at reasonable prices, could not recommend this place enough.

    I’ve stayed at many backpacker hostels throughout the world, and I would have to say this is the best! It felt like a 5 star beach resort , especially the pools and restobar above! Super clean and well maintained….! Friendly staff! Planned to stay for a night but extended to all nights that I was at Labuan Bajo… Highly recommended

    After the Komodo tour in Poot sleeping conditions I could not ask for a better hostel! Super clean, modern, comfortable and great location. I wish I stayed for a longer period of time! The rooftop bar and pool are great and the food too and relatively cheap.

    Fell in love with Labuan Bajo. In the hostel overall great vibe, good hangout spots and games. Great breakfast, super friendly staff and cold bintang in the fridge. The hostel is located perfectly about a kilometer away from the center. Easy&cheap motorbike rental. Stayed there for a week so all in all one of the best hostel experiences!
