FAQs
Definitely! We will make sure to provide you all the material needed to make your stay with your child easy: baby cot, baby bathtub, bed fence... and we also have many food options that your little one will certainly love.
We don't have a proper kids club at the moment but we can organize a nanny service for you (we highly recommend you to book in advance) and we have some board games and material for craft activities.
Understand that the nannies we can hire for you are adorable Sumbanese ladies but they can barely speak English. Even though we have no doubt that your kids will be safe with them, they are not the best choice if you want a highly trained nanny. In that case we recommend you to bring yours.
If you have the right medical evacuation coverage, a medivac plane can take you from Sumba to Singapore, which has the best medical care in the region.
Understand that we cannot be held responsible for any medical emergency evacuation costs. If you do not have an evacuation policy, expect to pay around 50.000USD just for the evacuation flight, that’s not including hospital or other costs incurred.
Malaria is common in most of Indonesia, and Sumba is no exception. We take malaria seriously by a green mosquito control approach, consisting in preventing and destroying any mosquito breeding place.
We spray our rooms every day, and all of them have mosquito nets.
If you are concerned, we recommend that you wear a light and loose long sleeved shirt at night with similar long pants, and use insect repellent (we will find some in your room and you can also buy your own at the boutique).
