On this episode of The Last Resort, host Christina Jelski chats with Amanda Khazem, owner of the Fora-affiliated agency Wanders and Travel, about her recent visit to Nihi Rote, a recently opened luxury resort on Indonesia's remote Rote Island.

Khazem talks about the multi-leg journey required to reach the all-inclusive property, why that very remoteness is part of the appeal and how the resort’s onsite Rote Hospitality Academy helps create a uniquely personal guest experience.

She also breaks down pricing, ideal length of stay and which travelers are the best fit for this adventure-leaning, off-the-beaten-path property.

Currently in its fourth season, The Last Resort is a monthly hospitality-focused podcast brought to you by Travel Weekly. In each episode, travel advisors share their first impressions of the last resort they visited.

The 7th episode of the fourth season will be posted the last week of July.
