Description

Cap Karoso is a laid-back beachfront retreat on the west coast of Sumba Island, Indonesia, surrounded by untouched nature and a vibrant local culture. Thoughtfully designed with earthy tones and open spaces, the hotel is a reflection of island life—peaceful, creative, and deeply connected to its surroundings. The atmosphere is warm and grounded, with an emphasis on community, sustainability, and local heritage. Every corner of Cap Karoso invites you to live simply and meaningfully, in rhythm with nature.

The hotel features 44 rooms and 20 villas, each designed with clean lines, natural textures, and views over the gardens or ocean. On-site amenities include a beachside pool, a holistic wellness studio offering everything from yoga to shamanic healing, a surf school for all levels, and a dedicated space for kids. 

You are invited to slow down and reconnect, whether through sunrise beach walks, traditional Sumbanese rituals, or stargazing by the fire pit. The farm on the property supplies much of the produce for the kitchen, and you are welcome to visit and learn about the hotel’s regenerative farming approach. 

Dining at Cap Karoso includes:
• Apicine – A relaxed poolside restaurant serving Mediterranean-inspired dishes with local ingredients and Indonesian touches
• Julang – An intimate chef’s table experience with a changing menu, focused on creative flavors and sustainable produce
• Beach Club – A lively spot just steps from the sand, perfect for wood-fired dishes, fresh seafood, and sunset cocktails in a barefoot setting
