Honestly, I do not know whether they still keep the level of service and amazing cuisine I found when it was managed by Amans (I remember we used to swim or snorkle from the boat to the coast of one of the deserted isles around Komodo while the staff prepared umbrellas, loungers, chilled drinks on a perfect pink sand beach for us - a bunch of very spoilt castaways).
