What’s new for NBR this year?
This year we launched a new Wellness and Activities program lead by Norwegian born yogi Hildi Guiney. Hildi will be offering yoga 5 days a week, overseeing production of fruit and vegetable smoothies, adding treatments to our SPA menu as well as organising off site activities including island hopping, mountain bike tours and SUP excursions to the mangroves.  Hildi has been spending the season on Rote since 1995 so there is nobody better to provide an insider’s experience to all Nembrala has to offer on land or sea.

Can any level of surfer join you?
Yes, we have sand bottom rolling waves perfect for learning and everything up from that level. Our fleet of boats allows us to split guests between breaks on a flexible schedule that best suits their skill and approach to each day.

Where can we find you?
We are located on the small island of Rote in the Nusa Tenggara region of Indonesia, just south west of Timor. Quite easy to get to and we are able to assist those who want help coordinating travel from Bali.

 

When is the best time of year to visit?
Any time March through November, with June through August being our coolest months with the dry trade winds (still hot, just drier) .
