Our best stay in Flores. From the tranquility of the resort to the very tastefully decorated bungalows and the large open air bathroom with plants and other shell and wood work. A wonderful open air restaurant serving up fresh, organic fare and the excellent service by staff. An excellent wellness area, kayaka and paddle boards on offer. The resort is absolutely clean though the grey sand beach might not be the best. However, to just chill in the balcony on bean bags facing the ocean is bliss. Food and drinks are very affordable for this top notch resort in Maumere
Wow! What a place! So quiet, serene and beautiful. Great accommodations...picture your own little gorgeous, romatice beach house with magnificient ocean views. Food was fantastic and the staff so warm and inviting and eager to help. We spent 2 nights here on our way to a liveaboard...could not have been more perfect! Beach/water was magnificent! Highly recommend.

We had a lovely stay, it's a great place. We are so pleased we stayed here (it was recommended by a tour guide).
Really nice quirky bungalows with a gorgeous outdoor bathroom (no hot water).
The staff are great, very friendly, but the service was very slow. We ordered our meals in advance but it was still late. They were fully booked over Easter & we weren't in a hurry so it didn't affect us, but if you have a deadline you may be frustrated. The food is very good so worth the wait.
Next time we'll stay longer than one night!
I booked 3 nights at the resort, but ended up having to stay an extra night when our flights changed.
The staff are literally the best I have ever encountered, and I have visited many different hotels over the past 20 years.
They are so helpful, so friendly, so determined to ensure that guests have a great experience.
The food is delicious, the location is spectacular, the staff are incredible. I cannot recommend Coconut Garden Beach Resort more highly.
We will definitely be returning to stay there for a longer vacation in 2023.
We enjoyed our stay at the Coconut Garden Beach Resort. After a couple trips away, we soon realized it was best just to stay at the Resort as many places were closed.
One thought. We are heavy water drinkers and noticed the need to refill the small water bottles. Not sure if Maumere has large water bottles, but if they do, putting a 5 gallon jug in each bungalow would be a great advantage to less plastic and less hassle for your staff. We were always asking for refills and felt it was a lot of extra work for the staff.
We highly recommend this resort for a laid back vaca away from the busier areas of Indonesia!
Very much enjoyed our 2 night stay here. The resort is a chilled place to be - directly on the beach with a terrific vista across the bay. The garden is well landscaped with some thoughtful touches. And our âhobbitâ beach huts were a hit with comfortable beds and a terrace with chairs or a hammock to while away the time or in our case snooze our afternoons away. The arrival process could do with a bit more attention or training. We arrived and were directed to the main reception and left to wait - for what no directions were given. But a simple âwelcomeâ and give us a few minutes to register you and bring you a welcome drink would have been sufficient. We very much enjoyed the evening dinners with good choices on the menu and the breakfasts were very good (especially the veggie fried noodles). Our last night was spoiled however by an all night party with music blasting from nearby to 5.30 in the morning. We had no sleep and were exhausted. The explanation the next day was that it was a holy communion celebration which would last three days. We were just glad we were moving on that day. Unfortunate - as this was outside the resortâs control but more presence by the manager (whoever he or she might be) might have helped to sooth some of the jarred nerves. Nonetheless the resort deserves 4 stars despite this. We would be happy to come back.
Nice resort. Laid back. Friendly staff. Helpful. Good access to beach. Food OK but would like to see grilled fresh fish on menu. Watch out for sandflies. Snorkelling trip well worth it. Generally very quiet. Nicely presented meals and immaculate clean room. Great linen too.
The rooms are very cool. Design is so different and they are clean and fresh. The place is isolated so you have to eat at the restaurant at the Resort. Unfortunately the menu is very bland! Not the usual Indonesia cuisine. We found another resort up the beach that we would walk to as the food was amazing! The beach itself is very ordinary, there are much nicer ones in Flores. If the price was 25% less than we paid, I would have rated it 5 stars, we felt it was overpriced as it is quite a basic resort.
Wir haben vier NĂ€chte im Coconutgarden verbracht. Unser Zimmer war klein, im Stuffbereich, dafĂŒr dem entsprechend gĂŒnstig. Trotzdem wohnt man eigentlich direkt am Strand. Die GebĂ€ude sind alle aus Bambus zwischen den Kokospalmen plaziert. Die Auswahl an Mahlzeiten ist ĂŒberschaubar, jedoch sind die Zutaten frisch und stammen zT. aus eigenem Anbau. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und aufmerksam und hilft bei Fragen oder der Planung von AusflĂŒgen weiter. Es wird jedoch auch nicht langweilig wenn man einfach den Strand geniesst und mit Schnorcheln die bunte Unterwasserwelt erkundet.

This not a five star hotel but it is fun. The cottages have a beach theme. It has some interesting features including the outdoor bath. It is not crowded, it is on the beach. The beach has a lot of litter which is usual for Indonesia. They have a very ample workout area.
