East Of Wallace Line
Kelimutu Crater Lakes Ecolodge
Solar powered and set by a river in a cool upland valley near the village of Moni in eastern Flores, Kelimutu Crater Lakes Ecolodge was only completed in 2010 and built using the latest sustainability technology and design. The hotel is now the perfect base from which to visit the famous volcanic lakes. Its five villas and five rooms (above the restaurant) have en suite bathrooms and are bright, modern and airy, many with views from the balconies. The restaurant serves local and western dishes washed down by beer or wine available at the bar.
Facilities
Rooms include mosquito nets, western bathrooms with hot water, safety deposit box. There is also a traditional restaurant, a small shop and laundry service available.
Local Wildlife
Many species of higher altitude birds.
Optional Activities
Visiting the Kelimutu crater lakes, which lie at 1400m absl and can mysteriously change colour suddenly, one year perhaps being white, then changing to turquoise, black, green, and even red.

Everyone involved in helping plan or execute this trip did a great job. Everything went according to plan and there was no downtime or confusion the entire time. All transfers, flights, meals, lodges, guides, Reef and Rainforest staff – everyone did a fantastic job. I am so grateful to you all for bending over backwards to make sure my vacation was top notch. I am lucky and I try to be humble. It’s hard to remember how lucky you are when everything works. So, hats off to you all. I had a great crew of people working to make my trip special, and it certainly was. Thank you.
