Flores, gateway to Sunda Islands, stretches 450km long, 70 km wide and 10 km in its narrowest side.
Les 4 Arbres (4 Trees)
Flores enjoys an exceptional wildlife, mountains offer us splendid panoramas with star-shaped rice fields. Its climate is varied, due to its very steep relief. Despite progress, Flores remains traditional in its customs. His national park of the islands of Komodo and its fabulous site of the volcano Kelimutu offer visitors all of its charm and character.
“4 Pohon”, seen from the sky
Welcome to Flores, a place full of culture and sensations. The adventure is just at the end of the path.
Disconnect yourself to re-connect with nature, in this guest house: no network, enjoy digital retreat it while it lasts. perfect place for practice yoga and meditation.

Les 4 Arbres (The 4 Trees) is a totally autonomous ecolodge providing its own fresh water and electricity. It offers two types of accommodations, individual rooms or bungalow (larger room with bathroom and terrace).
For budget oriented travelers, we provide tents with full sleeping. Campers are also welcome.
These guest rooms are built of wood, with teak furniture, simple and useful. At the end of this “road trail”, there is the 4 Arbres area, north of Flores. This cottage is located on the edge of a river that you can kayak down to the sea while admiring the fauna and flora.
This ecolodge is located between Pota and Riung in North Flores. Just 15 minutes East, on bicycle, you can enjoy the natural parks of Kelambu Bay, an entrance of 100 meters wide and 2.5 km long. Very nice coral wall for the snorklers.
This guest house also offers a French-Indonesian cuisine with bread, jam, cake and homemade ice-cream.
We grow our own vegetables, and cook from garden to table.
A quiet, warm-hearted place - We absolutely loved our stay at empat pohon. Olivier and Rensa are lovely people. The food is also very good. If you like silence, peacefull and calmness definitely come here.... read more Around there are enough things to do. You can go for a walk around the villages nearby, swim in river, go kayaking,
We absolutely loved to Bawe beach for sunset. You can go on your own or the nice staff member Alfa can go with you.

Peace In Paradise! - Olivier has created this eco-lodge through 15 years of blood, sweat and tears. The property is in an idyllic setting and Olivier is a very welcoming and hospitable host. I... read more was coming to the end of a very long day of travel when I stumbled upon 4Pohon. I was welcomed with a glass of cold ice tea, shown to my room and then served home made pasta and ice cream. I enjoyed a shower under the stars and listening to the sounds of nature. I really enjoyed my stay and really loved chatting to Olivier. He is a lovely man with a passion for adventure and living outside the status quo. I wasn't able to make it work to go on one of his motorbike adventure tours, but from what he told me and the photos/videos he showed me, I have no doubt they'd be an amazing experience! If you're looking for simple, very well priced accommodation, in a peaceful, beautiful setting and far away from the tourist traps, you need to spend some time with Olivier and his family at 4Pohon! You will not regret it. I had one of the best sleeps I've had after almost a month in Indonesia. If you want to get off the 'main road' check out this place!

This beautiful place has been in my radar for some time and I just got a chance to visit it recently. It started when I did weekend riding from Ruteng... read more to Nanga Lok in East Manggarai that took me around 4 hours. It was a long but easy ride with few unsealed roads. After a long ride with sun is up high in the sky i decided to head to 4 Pohon to try my luck if i could get a cold beer. Whoa! 140 km from Ruteng with no signal and relatively remote but i got what i want. No stop there, they also provide a la carte lunch, ice cream, cocktail, homemade spread and many. I spent my time to relax and enjoying the compound of the property, it is so green with many trees, spacious and private, self powered with solar PV and water from a well. I decided to spend night so I can enjoy the surrounding area like Watu Payung Beach, Rana Rugu Beach and Nanga Lok Hill when the sun is low. Worth it!!!! The road access to this place is under construction, it is now unsealed but compressed so no big issues for automatic scooter like Vario, Soul, Aerox, NMAX, PCX - you mention it. We may expect this road will be paved at the end of this year or next year at the latest. I booked this accommodation on spot but...

I booked this accommodation on spot but if you want to book it in advance, you can drop a message to the owner, Olivier. Since there is no signal in this area yet, the owner will be checking the message in regular basis because the signal spot is 12 km toward east or 20 km west.
But don't worry, he will respond so give yourself enough buffer time before you visit.
I went here solo i was the only guest. I does not matter if you go solo or with friends this place will accommodate your interest. You can have your own space and time and you can have some fun with your friends.
Night sky is beautiful with full of starts, milkyway is easily spotted.
I had arak/grape ice cream - delicious one and they have several options, palm wine cocktail, squid, mixed veggies and of course cold beer.
I had outdoor shower under the stars and very good sleep.
It is a recommended place for your soul and to have private time.
Quiet and peaceful! More
