AustriaGreat way of getting an authentic experience! We booked a 2D1N private boat tour with Jeki, the host and had an amazing time! He took us to all the best spots that the short time allowed for and planned it so that we avoided the big crowds from the day trips. The homestay has a nice view over the harbor and Jekis wife cooked a simple but very nice dinner and breakfast for us.
The homestay is generally very simple compared to western standards (shared bathroom with the family, simple shower and hole-in-the-floor toilet, mattress on the floor for sleeping), which was perfectly fine for us. Just don't go in expecting a luxurious hotel, you won't find that on Komodo island. The place was squeaky clean and we felt very welcome and would come back in a heartbeat!
