Rote Island is located about 500km northwest of Australia. It is also situated southwest of Flores and Sumba and southwest of Timor Ocidental (capital Kupang). As such, it is one of the southernmost islands in all of Asia.
Rote covers an area of 1200km2 and has a population of more than 100,000 inhabitants. The island is surrounded by several smaller islands, mostly unpopulated.
White sands, crystal clear waters and perfect surfing waves. An intact, relaxed and unexplored island thanks to its remoteness in the west end of Indonesia. The beach for you alone or shared with piggies, cows and other domestic animals that graze in freedom. All this at 81 Palms hotel in Rote Island.
Our boutique resort, hotel in Rote Island is born of our own desires when traveling; where do we like to stay? What food would we enjoy eating? What kind of bed do we like to sleep in? What do we look for in hospitality?
We feel we have created it all at 81 Palms. 5,000 m2 of white sand beneath the palms. A swimming pool that merges with the horizon. 6 huge luxury Cabanas in local style, 92m2 for you to enjoy.
Open the door to nature and to your well-being. Remove your shoes, take off your watch; you won’t need it here. Feel free.
Look for the extraordinary in simplicity. Fall asleep and wake up with the noise of the birds and the waves.
Enjoy our delicious food directly from the market and the ocean to the table.
Be amazed at the beauty of our sunsets over and over again.
