    Some nights can get quite warm due to the absence of air conditioning or a fan. But that discomfort is very well balanced from the perfection of all the rest!

    What a stunning place! Like paradise! Beautiful reef for snorkeling full of colorful fish; nice huts; delicious food and drinks; super friendly staff; perfect for relaxation!

    Some nights can get quite warm due to the absence of air conditioning or a fan, which is understandable given the island's remote location. One suggestion for enhancement would be to improve the shower facilities, as the water flow was somewhat challenging, making it difficult to wash hair effectively.

    The setting is truly remarkable: vibrant corals, stunning fish, young sharks, crystal-clear blue waters, and pristine white sand. We truly feel like we're on a tropical paradise island. There are various activities available in good weather, and the organization is exceptional, allowing us to have some personal time while also facilitating new connections with others. It's refreshing to occasionally escape civilization for a detox experience.

    Food choices, selection, availability and serving time can be point of improvement. Also for the drinks.

    The resort is run on eco-sustainable basis, which is a plus point. It goes without saying, in terms of managing in the remote individual island typically has its own challenges. But, the hotel staff are really supportive. During stay, I had an unfortunate high-tide and extreme moonsoon wind and rain, causing transfer boat closure and logistic issue for the week ahead. Management is really good handling this to mitigate guest safety as priority. Most of rooms are facing sea front, its either a tent or hut style, depends on selection. With no air con, and fan-on for daytime only, guests are better well-informed and prepare for weather situation. Some months maybe are more hot and humid, than that of in general. But, staying like this encouraging us to reset our mindset, bring books.

    You have to be prepared for the heat over night, the mosquito nets don't let much breeze through and there is no fans or anything (as they stated upfront). Also there is frequent smell of sewage around the place.

    The location is absolutely stunning and remote, the staff are amazing and the food was delicious. We loved watching movies on the beach under the stars and snorkelling in our own private coral reef. Also the sunsets were incredible!

    I booked a beach hut. It was super comfy however unbearably hot in the sun. I struggled sleeping both nights, but I put it down to the experience. It would have been nice to have cushions on the boat as it was a little uncomfortable. The shower areas need looking at as the water was trickling out. Difficult to get the sand off of your body.

    This was an exceptional beach experience. It fully met my expectations and more. Boat transfer was lovely and relaxing. Staff welcomed everyone upon arrival. Pure paradise island, accommodation was lovely, food was outstanding, bar including happy hour was great. Lovely cocktails. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were amazing. Equipment and towels provided, shower area was good.

    The only thing that we struggled with was the heat. It is an eco resort that runs on solar power, so the fans go off when it gets dark. Mosquitos abound, so the muslin netting was essential! Bug spray and repellent were provided in the room. However, there was no breeze at night, so the huts were very hot and sticky, which made sleeping difficult. My son also got a severe bought of food poisoning or bali belly on day three. He really was very ill for 24 hours with a very high temperature. Although staff were super helpful and provided lots of ice, which I wrapped in a flannel for his head. The other thing that concerned me was another review that seemed to show raw effluent being dumped into the sea at night. This may explain why parts of the reef had algae blooms. This is obviously very un-eco friendly, and there was us conscientiously using our reef safe suntan cream! To be honest, this place exists because of the reef. If this is destroyed due to malpractice by the hotel, that would be very sad indeed.

    We had a fabulous three days in this magical resort. It really was paradise. The place has been beautifully thought out, constructed and landscaped with lots of palm trees. The small beach is surrounded by a reef which has an incredible variety of colourful fish. So snorkelling was a must several times a day. The staff were all very friendly, polite, and attentive to your every need. Food was delicious and generous sized portions, although a bit more expensive than the main land.

    No big complaints, it was mostly amazing. We were there for 4 nights and eventually would have appreciated a change in sheets or a turndown service as our sheets got pretty sandy by the end. I am nervous on boats and would have loved more information about the boat as well as the water/ weather conditions beyond just a photo of the boat.

    It was such a magical experience with amazing snorkeling with a great variety of fish and coral, a fun glamping experience (yes it’s hot at night, but part of the experience, and the island is a good place to be tired!). The island is super social and a great place to make friends. The food was very healthy and delicious. Loved the movie night under the stars. The walk up the hill was great to watch the sunrise.

    The dead coral all over the beach wasn’t ideal.

    Absolutely everything. It was stunning, the food is good and the staff are lovely. We stayed in a sunrise villa right on the beach and it was just amazing. The only downside is the beach is full of dead coral so it isn’t very Sandy in most parts but this can’t be helped. There are loads of sharks in the shallow water which was really cool (only small reef sharks!)

    The mosquito net were very thick so even the wind couldn't come through making it hot at night, but still managed to have a great sleep.

    Le Pirate was really something speciel. The staff made sure we had a great stay and the location for snorkeling for turtly and for resting was very good. Movie nights under open sky was lovely.

    I appreciate the fact that the concept of the resort is to be mindful of the planet - a no-plastic policy and solar energy only (no generator noise and fresh food are a bonus) but we did struggle with the heat, especially at night. I guess it is the price one has to pay.

    What a beautiful island! We loved the view from our bungalow and thoroughly enjoyed the snorkeling. The staff is a true asset - they are professional and friendly and run the place efficiently. The food is delicious. Having a movie night under the stars with the sea as a backdrop was a first for me - brilliant idea. It is a place I would love to return to and that I would highly recommend.

    Our two night stay on Pirate Island was fabulous. Felt like paradise! Our beach front room was amazing. Tastefully appointed and spotlessly clean. You could just walk straight from the room into the sea and do the most incredible snorkelling amongst the coral reef - absolutely beautiful. The staff were excellent and worked hard to make everyone feel welcome and well looked after.

    The palm trees are not high enough yet and so it gets quite hot in the huts . Unfortunately the reef in front is mostly destroyed and dead . There are many tourists who can’t swim and step constantly on the Corals left - it’s a pity to see this ! Though you may see some fishes and riff sharks still.

    Very nice island feeling with a professional well organized marketing and targeted for western tourists. Nice bungalows on the beach and good relaxing atmosphere!

    I would suggest to put fans in every bungalow as the nights are hot sometimes .The water in the public shower needs more power. As last I would suggest to put a container with sea water under every stairs of the tents. So you can clean your feet before you go up to your room.

    Very unique experience. The location is unbeatable. Amazing sea water and piece full environment.

    They were doing some maintenance work while there which wasn’t the best when looking for peace and quiet from the usual busy work life.

    The location is divine. If accommodation is near front breeze to the ocean the experience is really enjoyable. I’ve upgraded my stay to enjoy better sleep with a fan .

    The glamping beachfront tent didn’t have a fan so it was very warm at night and had to sleep with the mosquito net and sides open. Would be nice if there is some information/help to book Komodo trips from the island itself. Now you have to do it in Bajo or arrange a dive trip.

    Very unique accommodation! Beautiful island, beach and great location near Komodo/Bajo. Staff is super nice and food is good with enough options. The dive center on the island is very convenient to do courses, shore dives and arrange Komodo dive trips.
