TA’AKTANA, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Labuan Bajo

시설은 모든면에서 훌륭합니다.그러나 주위에는 아무것도 없어 다운타운 나가는데 불편합니다.

Nestled in a world of unparalleled luxury and tranquility, this resort offers an experience like no other. We were upgraded to a villa with a private pool and breathtaking sea views, which we considered one of the most serene and idyllic places on Earth. Beyond the Komodo National Park, the resort boasts an array of exciting activities and amenities. Organized snorkeling tours, yoga sessions, and cultural education programs cater to all interests. The resort features an Olympic-sized pool, multiple lounge pools, a state-of-the-art gym, and a fantastic spa with both hot and cold plunge pools. The resort also boasted several unique features, including a serene library, a coffee roastery, and a daily sunset ceremony (the sunsets were simply breathtaking). The culinary scene at the resort is equally impressive, with multiple restaurants serving delectable dishes. The breakfast restaurant stands out as particularly exceptional. The jetty at the resort is a sight to behold. We were fortunate enough to encounter turtles daily and embarked on snorkeling adventures and paddle boarding excursions in the bay every evening. As a private area, the resort exudes an unparalleled level of quiet and luxury. The staff is truly exceptional, with everyone knowing our names and going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Our butler, Rico, was particularly remarkable, providing attentive service and anticipating our every need. For morning tours that depart at 6 a.m., the resort kindly provided a takeaway bag of breakfast, ensuring we had a nourishing start to our day. To top it all off, the resort organized complimentary airport transfers, ensuring a smooth and convenient arrival. We were escorted to our transportation from the aero bridge, an experience that was very unique and cool. We highly recommend this resort to anyone in the area and would eagerly return for another unforgettable experience.

My October 2024 visit to Ta'aktana revealed a remarkable addition to the region. The staff left an indelible impression, demonstrating natural warmth and intuitive attentiveness that set a relaxed tone throughout the stay. The architecture thoughtfully incorporates Manggarai cultural elements, creating an authentic sense of place. The kitchen produces visually striking dishes that deliver on taste, particularly the poached Flores Strait lobster with sautéed cassava leaves and sambal luat. The menu's exploration of regional flavors transformed each meal into a culinary journey. The pool and beach areas, while beautiful, currently have young palm trees that are still growing into their full shade-giving potential. And while I noticed some occasional debris near the rocky beach, these minor details hardly registered against the overall excellence of the experience. The resort's core elements—design, cuisine, and especially service—create something truly special. Ta'aktana operates with a polish that belies its recent opening, offering a distinctive luxury experience in the region. Each element comes together to create something memorable, making it a destination I look forward to revisiting.
