It is a symbol for the one descent group and those other groups that have a direct or indirect relation with it (such as between fetosaa and umane – wife-givers and wife-takers). It means that the uma lulik is a symbol of a larger family, its history, its roots, its trunk and its branches.

When we speak about uma lulik we must consider two aspects. One is the uma lulik as a material construction, which we will call the material aspects. If we see the uma lulik as a construction, we can say that it is a building made of non-industrial processed so ONLY primal natural materials such as timbers, bamboo, wooden planks, twine and arenga pinnata fiber rope and others. When we look at the uma lulik in terms of its materials we can say that it is a simple building but advanced seen within the time-period of origin and that there are a few differences from buildings made in other countries (for example the sacred houses on parts of Indonesia such as Flores or West Timor).
If we look at the uma lulik in its intangible aspects then the uma lulik of East Timor is not the same as those buildings in other countries. The intangible aspects include ceremonies and rituals, the history of the houses, and Peoples beliefs relating to an uma lulik (for example as the protective house). The uma lulik also provides a scenario for the adoration of rocks and plants and as the place for the People from one descendant group concerning transcendental communication with their ancestors.
Would recommend hotel to improve their quality of food and keep the swimming clean.
Property was fine and the location was next to jetty beach not the beach for swimming.
Food was not of good quality and got diarrhoea due to food. Swimming pool was not properly cleaned.

Breakfast was fantastic, was in a good location and pool was great!
The staff didn’t speak the best English and when organising a driver it was rather expensive. No airport transport (you would think it’s included in the high price)

8.0★★★★☆DmitryMarch 2026
Хороший отель для тех, кто ценит комфорт, но и цена соответствующая.
Хороший удобный отель с чистым и просторным номером. Хороший завтрак. Есть приятная внутренняя территория, где можно позагорать. Есть бассейн, но он не глубокий. В номере есть балкон.
Достаточно дорогой отель. Доступ к Вай Фай пропал на 2-й день, т.к. кто-то другой подключился, но у меня была местная сим-карта с мобильным интернетом, поэтому проблем не возникло.
