Gorgeous little island! Snorkeling, sunset cocktails, clear waters! The resort does a fantastic job keeping the coral alive and beautiful. They are strict with guests swimming, but it’s worth all the beautiful fish! You bungalow is right on the beach! Relaxing and stunning views!

Very beautiful resort! I would only recommend staying 2-3 nights because the price to make it back to the main island is quite expensive and you will runout of things to keep you busy here. We stayed at the sister resort Komodo in Labaun Bajo the first night to easier make our Komodo Island tour and the resort was more than willing to accommodate us. Also the manager at Seraya was very helpful in finding us alternative transportation that was cheaper to make our flight out to Bali.

The hotel offers a range of services (hotel transfer, via speedboat, snorkeling in their exclusive coral reef, etc. ) and the staff is very welcoming, making travelers feel special guests.
The island is perfect for relaxation, allowing guests to connect with other guests if they want, as the number of rooms/bungalows is limited. The beach and coral reef are immaculate and very safe from dangerous currents allowing close approach with colorful fish, sea turtles and other tropical marine creatures.
Facilities are well maintained and the limited wifi (mostly accessible from the restaurant area) means that you can stay isolated from the external world and connect to it only when you want to.
Price is very reasonable for the excellence of the service provided. Ideal for couples or single travellers looking for tranquility.

The resort is on a private island and has some of the most scenic views of sunrise and sunset, the water on the beach is clear and flooding with coral and marine life. I was lucky to see a baby shark, rays, lion fish, turtle and so many more types of fishes right from the Jetty and shallow snorkeling.

There is no water heater. I asked the customer service to send one but they didn't. I had to go to the front desk to urge them. The toilet was blocked and it stank. The shuttle boat was not clear where it was and I almost missed it. The food was expensive but the taste was okay.

The snorkeling environment is good, with many types of corals and fish, and the wind is small and the waves are small, so there is no pressure for children. Snorkeling equipment can be borrowed for free at the diving center, as well as paddleboards. The included breakfast is a la carte, which is very good. Lunch and dinner are also good for Western food, but we have been out for a week and can only eat fried rice and noodles later... The sunrise and sunset are beautiful ~ worth recommending ~
As for the room type, the single-family beach hut is closest to the restaurant and has the best wifi signal. The two rooms connected together are farther away, and there is basically no wifi signal. The attic is the farthest, and the balcony view is super good. Telkomsel shows 4G signal, and the speed is average. I see that the mobile card also shows Telkomsel 4G.

Room: Not big, a little crowded after adding a bed, but enough, after all, most of the time is spent on the beach, restaurant and sea. The decoration is primitive, not as luxurious as Maldives
Food: It is strongly recommended to choose breakfast included. The breakfast set is very rich and you have to lean on the wall to eat. Lunch and dinner need to be ordered separately. The price is a little expensive (100+rmb per person), which is still cheaper than Maldives. The taste is not bad, but there are fewer choices
Environment: More than 80% of the islands are Europeans and Americans. Except for meal time, there are basically few people. The color level of the glass sea is not bad, but it is slightly worse than Semporna (Mataking), and the beach is average. The signal is really bad.
Underwater: Absolutely~ How many islands can you see Jack Storm by snorkeling? There are all kinds of other fish schools, lionfish, clownfish, turtles, small sharks, and silly Titan triggers. Snorkeling enthusiasts should not miss it! At 11 o'clock every day when the tide is low, you can see the sea directly at the pier. Giant clams, sea urchins, and corals are all in sight without getting into the water

The problem is too big.
They said it was free pick-up, but they asked for 100 RMB for the car and 800 RMB for the speedboat to pick me up from my last hotel. The reason was "only the airport is free".
We proposed to take a taxi to the airport and enjoy the free pick-up, but they pretended not to understand English on the phone and refused.
After repeated negotiations, at 10 am, they proposed free wooden boat pick-up at 11 am and 4 pm, otherwise we had to go by ourselves. As a result, we had to cancel the original hotel itinerary.
When we arrived at the hotel, we made an appointment for the next day's island tour, but they refused. The reason was "not enough for 5 people". We made an appointment for spa, but they said it could only be for one person.
The hotel house was a mess. There was no network signal, and we could hear clearly what the next room said.
In short, the thing I regret most is booking this hotel. The experience is too bad.

The hotel has beautiful natural scenery. I stayed there for four days! I was very addicted to snorkeling every day. I also booked a boat with the hotel to go to the mountain opposite the hotel and several small islands. The food is also good. It would be perfect if the hotel facilities were better. One thing is worth noting, you can't catch starfish on the shore. We were criticized by the staff... They really love their natural environment!
I must give a special thanks to Ctrip! In the past few years, all hotel pick-ups and drop-offs, including this Bali charter, are provided by Ctrip. It's really safe! When there is a problem in the hotel, Ctrip will coordinate and deal with it for us as soon as possible. I am really touched! A childhood friend who came back from studying in the UK told me a few years ago that she booked hotels on foreign platforms, and Ctrip is a scam for Chinese people, but I compared several foreign platforms and it turns out that they don't!

The experience was great. The service staff was very enthusiastic and the living environment was very comfortable. The few days spent on a quiet island were the most unforgettable in the Indonesian trip. Every day, I snorkeled and sunbathed. I would like to do it again if I have the chance. The snorkeling environment is really good. Small sharks, lionfish, sea turtles, various small fish, starfish are really beautiful

The room is very unique and the spa is awesome!
The environment is beautiful and the service is warm, thoughtful and meticulous.
The dishes are rich and delicious, and the drinks meet my needs.
The single boat is so fun. Snorkeling is also awesome, I recommend trying it. The hotel has deep diving services and airport pick-up.

The hotel provides airport pick-up and drop-off services. You can first find out the time of the free boat from the main island to the small island. There are 2 flights a day. The hotel staff speaks fluent English and communication is convenient. You can paddle a rubber boat and snorkel at the door of the room, and the rental equipment is free, which is really great.

Airport pick-up and drop-off services are provided, and there are two free wooden boats going back and forth every day; the snorkeling environment of the hotel is superb, and I personally feel it is better than the A-level snorkeling island of Villadu in Madai.

Very happy to unlock a new skill - diving.
The hotel has diving projects, so book in advance.
I first stayed at sudamala Komodo and learned pool diving from the instructor for 1 hour in the swimming pool. The next day I stayed at sudamala seraya and went diving in the sea.
I didn’t expect that I would teach scuba diving instead of snorkeling! As a newbie, I kept beating my head, oh my god!
Saw a lot of beautiful fish, corals, blue starfish, but no turtles
Try dive, the deepest dive is 12 meters, with a one-on-one instructor. Very good experience!
If your ears hurt, pinch your nose immediately and then spray it to relieve it. You can only fly after 12-24 hours after diving, and the interval between dives is 12 hours. Diving 2 times, it is recommended to have an interval of 24 hours.
At 7 o'clock in the morning the next day, the tide went out and you could see a lot of corals. You can see a lot of fish under the hotel's trestle.
Don't touch the corals, protect them!
Please use sunscreen that protects the ocean.
The hotel breakfast is relatively simple. It's a la carte, and each person can order one staple food (omelette and the like), one complementary food (I ordered yogurt with fruit), and 2 drinks.
My mother and I ordered different breakfasts. Looking at the sea and having breakfast, it’s still beautiful!
The hotel's boat leaves Seraya Island at 9:00 in the morning and 14:30 in the afternoon.
Pick-up to the island is at 11:00 am and 16:30 pm.
The boat takes about 45-55 minutes.
