Imagine waking up to the turquoise waters of the Flores Sea lapping at your doorstep at TA’AKTANA, a new Luxury Collection Resort & Spa. This waterfront oasis, cradled inside wild forests, marks Marriott International’s debut in Labuan Bajo and becomes the Luxury Collection’s second Indonesian escape.
TA’AKTANA isn’t just a luxurious escape; it’s a passage to a new adventure. Located in the heart of Labuan Bajo, the resort is steps away from cultural gems like Mirror Stone Cave, Rumah Tenun, and Melo Village. Just a short drive away is the UNESCO-listed Komodo National Park for travelers who will appreciate the seamless connectivity. Direct flights from Jakarta and Bali to Komodo International Airport are available, followed by a convenient 10-minute ride to paradise.
Spread luxuriously across 16 hectares and designed by the renowned ANP Interiors, TA’AKTANA offers a nice haven for every traveler. Travelers can choose from 70 guest rooms, including 25 private villas and 45 elegant suites – all spaces come with private balconies with captivating sunset views.
TA’AKTANA, meaning “green land” in the Manggarai language, isn’t just a beautiful name—it’s an homage to Flores Island’s soul. Inspired by the Lingko fields and distinctive web-shaped rice terraces cherished by the Manggarai people, the resort reflects the destination’s rich history, culture, and Indigenous traditions. Here, travelers can experience the true essence of Labuan Bajo through unique and authentic experiences.
