Natural stone, warm timber, and handcrafted furnishings reflect the island's heritage-a design that is both distinctly local and timelessly sophisticated. As you meander towards the outdoor areas, a picturesque swimming pool nestles just in front of the Kampung Rua Restaurant, while lounge chairs and umbrellas beckon with the promise of lowered inhibitions under the Sumbanese sun. Deliciously curated menus feature aromatic Indonesian cuisine and international staples, perfect for romantic dinners enveloped in ocean breezes. The aesthetic allure and welcoming ambience make this resort not just a place to stay, but an immersive experience-a charming escape ready to captivate.

Room Information

Rua Beach Resort Sumba boasts a collection of 11 thoughtfully designed rooms, each ensuring an elevated experience. Ranging in size, these accommodations feature essential comforts such as air conditioning, private bathrooms, and patios that extend a scenic view of the azure sea. Each room is equipped with a safe, free bottled water, and generous seating areas, fostering a feeling of effortless relaxation from the moment guests step inside.

Room Upgrades

For those looking to elevate their stay, upgraded room types include spacious bungalows and deluxe double rooms, each ranging from 300 to 500 square feet. These premium accommodations come with a picturesque terrace that overlooks the pool, adding an element of luxury to your retreat.

“This 3-star resort makes a compelling case for escaping Bali's crowds. Its unique blend of traditional design and beach access creates a restful Sumba experience. The food is good, and the staff is very friendly, but I think that the real selling point is the cultural immersion, a chance to connect with Sumbanese life in a quiet setting.”
