AYANA Komodo Waecicu Beach, the first five-star resort in Labuan Bajo, is enhancing the global appeal of Flores Island by offering guests extraordinary marine experiences. Situated at the entrance of the UNESCO-listed Komodo National Park, the resort provides direct access to the region's stunning marine life and cultural heritage. Labuan Bajo has been recognised by Skyscanner and Condé Nast Traveller as a top destination for 2026, with AYANA Komodo also earning accolades from Robb Report Hong Kong.
Manta Point, a highlight of Labuan Bajo, is renowned for its unique marine encounters, featuring two of the world's three manta ray species. Indonesia, having declared its waters the largest manta ray sanctuary in 2014, offers visitors a rare glimpse into these majestic creatures' natural habitat. AYANA Komodo Waecicu Beach facilitates guided snorkelling excursions to Manta Point, allowing guests to observe the mantas' mesmerising cleaning rituals.
The resort's Full-Day Island Hopping Tour includes visits to Padar Island, Pink Beach, and a guided sighting of Komodo dragons. Guests can also engage in coral restoration and marine education activities at the resort's Marine Biology Centre. These initiatives reflect AYANA's commitment to luxury experiences that harmonise with nature, offering travellers a deeper connection to the ocean.
With Scoot Airlines launching direct flights from Singapore to Labuan Bajo in December 2025, accessibility to this burgeoning destination is set to improve, further boosting its appeal as a world-class travel spot.
