Nirvana Bungalows, Riung, Flores

There are not a huge number of places to stay in Riung as at the moment it is still relatively quiet. So I think there are about 4 or 5 places and when I read reviews generally they were not very good. Finally I decided on Nirvana Bungalows. We arrived in the evening and the staff welcomed us and showed us to the bungalow where we would be staying. I was pleasantly surprised at the standard of the room. It had been freshly painted and was nice and clean. There was a bed, mosquito net, sink, mirror and bedside table. The bathroom had also been freshly painted and was large and had a great shower. I was more than happy. At 220k per night the room provided good value for money including our breakfast. Once we were settled they brought us a coffee and we were able to straight away organise our boat trip for the following day through a member of staff. Breakfast the following morning was a nice small loaf of bread with butter and jam, a plate of fruit and a cup of coffee. We were even given breakfast on the morning we left which was at the very early time of 5.30am. The owner of the bungalows called Om Rustam, is friendly and welcoming and happy to sit and have a chat. There are seven bungalows in total and the newer ones are at the back (which is where we stayed). There are rooms with aircon which are a little more expensive, ours had a fan. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
