Welcome to Aetheria Hotel, an escape where the sky truly meets the ocean.

Named after the Ancient Greek word for "upper sky," Aetheria is a concept that transcends ordinary reality. Secluded high atop a dramatic cliff in Kalena Rongo Village, Southwest Sumba, the hotel is designed around the philosophy of "The Art of Disappearance".

Here, the boundaries between the structure, the ocean, and the atmosphere dissolve. Experience the sensation of floating between two dimensions, offering profound tranquility and a unique perspective.

Aetheria is crafted specifically for luxury travelers and architectural aficionados seeking a high-end and unique experience, and those who wish to truly 'escape' from the hustle of everyday reality.
