Cap Karoso: Sustainable Luxury & Cultural Immersion on Sumba Island

Just a one-hour flight from Bali lies Cap Karoso, a 64-key, award-winning resort located on the pristine shores of Karoso Beach, on Indonesia’s lesser-known island of Sumba. Featured in Vogue, Forbes, and Travel & Leisure, this resort is ideal for modern, conscious travelers looking for tailor-made trips in Indonesia.
Cap Karoso is more than a hotel — it’s a lifestyle destination blending contemporary design, local tradition, and a deep commitment to sustainability. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with family, it offers the perfect balance of relaxation, adventure, and cultural richness.

Why choose Cap Karoso for your tailor-made Indonesia trip?
Calm, swimmable beach
Ideal for families and non-surfers, with gentle beginner waves next to the resort. Advanced surfers can enjoy trips to Pero, just 15 minutes away by boat.

Culinary excellence with a local twist
Rooted in French gastronomy, Cap Karoso features three unique restaurants. The award-winning Julang welcomes guest chefs throughout the year, while the on-site permaculture farm provides organic produce for unforgettable farm-to-table meals.

Award-winning modernist design
Cap Karoso fuses clean architectural lines with the spirit of Sumbanese culture, encouraging guests to discover its traditions rather than replicate them.

Freedom to explore
Take off on self-guided electric bike or motorbike adventures to uncover hidden corners of Sumba at your own pace.
