The Indian Ocean beckons you every morning when you open your balcony door!


Historic Samudera Hotel..


Has lost its lustre of once a popular hotel!



The first president of Indonesia Bung Sukarno commissioned the hotel to be built on the north most point of Pelabuhan Ratu, in the district of Sukabumi, off the south coast of Java Island.
Samudera Beach Hotel was a favourite place for Sukrno to spend his off days and many stories goes he liked this part of Java because the Sundanese women are known for their beauties!
