Why Now Is the Time to Visit Flores, Indonesia
"The September opening of the modern, ocean-facing Ayana Komodo Resort at Waecicu Beach may change all that. Each of its 205 rooms has floor-to-ceiling windows and a balcony, which means full-on views of the fluorescent-blue Flores Sea. There’s also an 820-foot private jetty and a fleet of boats at the ready so you can get this close to Komodo dragons at Rinca Island or snorkel over healthy, dense beds of soft and hard coral. You could even bake in a few days aboard the hotel’s own ship, the Lako di’a, a 177-foot traditional phinisi that’s been updated with nine guest rooms."
