ORO BEACH HOUSES & RESTAURANT

This is the umpteenth time I have visited Oro Beach house in Laura, Sumba island. A very natural, comfortable and beautiful place.. clean beach with white sand. Unique and very private bungalows on the beach. This place sings a very beautiful sunset. The manager, Mrs. Siska and her friends, is very friendly. Being in Oro is like being at home. The choice of the right place to stay if you are on vacation to the island of Sumba. it is located close to Tambolaka airport and to other tourist places The rooms are very comfortable. There were good beds and linens and everything worked. The mozzie net is patched, but effective. The rooms are cleaned and the grounds are quite well maintained. The pages are very rocky, and this wasn't (at first) very visually appealing to me, but over the course of a few days I got used to it and noticed its distinct beauty. Whale bones and other objects also create interest. We briefly lost power a few times, but recovered quickly. There were bugs in the bathroom, but these came at night when the lights were still on. They are not particularly scary bugs (little slaters) and we preferred this to the very fumigated hotel we had in Bali, where everything was poisoned and there were no geckos. Our kids loved the two giant geckos in their room. The whole time we were there we kept thinking about how things could be done a little better, with a little extra effort. For example, there is no menu, so every time you want to eat you have to have a discussion about what they do and don't have, and how to cook it. They should just have a list of what they prepared to cook (e.g. curry, grilled fish or chicken, noodles, fried rice), and a list of what ingredients they had that day (could be on a chalkboard so they could change it). It took us four days to work out, they could cook all these things. Second, the list of public tours exhibited at prices would be good. They are happy to help, but it would be easier if everything was written down. #deserts#historicculture#loveflowers#beautifulsunsets
