How to Get to NIHI Rote
Your journey to NIHI Rote begins with a flight into Kupang (KOE) in West Timor, the gateway to Rote Island. You can connect to Kupang from Jakarta, Bali, and Sumba.
From Kupang, a brief 30 minute domestic flight brings you to Rote (RTI), where our team will be waiting to welcome you at D.C. Saudale Airport. Upon arrival in Rote, the NIHI Rote team will welcome you and assist with your luggage, before escorting you on a scenic and comfortable 90 minute transfer to the resort.
Your immersion into Rote begins the moment you leave the small island airstrip. The drive to NIHI Rote passes through traditional villages and palm tree groves that reveal the island’s raw and unfiltered beauty. Chilled beverages and light refreshments are provided en route, and on arrival to the resort, you’ll be given a warm NIHI welcome.
Our reservations team are always available to assist you with the latest route options and concierge support. As flight schedules may change seasonally, we recommend confirming all travel details with our reservations team ([email protected]) prior to departure to ensure the smoothest possible journey.
All foreign travelers to Indonesia need at least six months remaining on their passport as well as one full clean page for the visa on arrival stamp. This is strictly reinforced: Guests will not be allowed to board the plane in their departing country if this is not adhered to. Kindly contact our Travel Designers at [email protected] if you require any information to enter Indonesia.
Please note that airlines can change their flight schedules, and these changes are beyond our control.
Return Airport Transfers
Round-trip transfers from the airport to the resort are included in your nightly rate. The 90 min journey is a scenic experience through Rote’s stunning landscapes in one of our open-air safari vehicles (shared car).
Alternatively, if you prefer a more private option, you may book a private car transfer (maximum of 4 guests).
