We loved this hotel in every way, it was in the most perfect location, incredibly quiet, on the most perfect tropical beach, with the most stunning swimming pools. The rooms were amazing large and with an extremely comfortable bed, we adored our large outdoor bathroom with the round circular bath and overhead rain fall shower. This hotel was our favourite place to stay so far with its beauty, antiques all over the grounds and in the most idealic setting. The staff were incredibly attentive, kind and thoughtful. I very much hope to return and can not recommend it enough.

Our stay at The Lombok Lodge was nothing short of outstanding. I have traveled and stayed at many hotels around the world, but this place is truly unique. From the moment we arrived, we felt at home – it’s not just a hotel, it’s a home away from home. The food was consistently delicious, both in the mornings and evenings. The attention to detail in every aspect is remarkable, and the staff made our stay unforgettable. Every employee knew our names and greeted us warmly, making us feel like part of the family. They even surprised us with special touches for our birthdays, which meant a lot. A highlight was the wonderful day we spent at Bagno di Gili – a magical experience. I am not usually an emotional person, but I had tears in my eyes when it was time to leave. The Lombok Lodge is the perfect place to relax, recharge, and feel truly cared for. I wholeheartedly recommend every person to experience this hotel at least once – if you are looking for something truly special and want to be genuinely taken care of, this is the place.

Unmatched Views, But Falls Short of Expectations: The views at Kalandara Resort are absolutely stunning — watching the sunset from our front door felt surreal and unforgettable. The bed was very comfortable and the staff were friendly and eager to help. However, the resort didn’t always feel as luxurious as it looks. We found mold in the complimentary water bottles and wrappers from previous guests, which was disappointing. Breakfast was good, but the restaurant food was overpriced and underwhelming. We ended up dining at The Kliff Bistro and Nooq Trattoria, both of which had amazing food and great prices. Overall, while we loved the setting and atmosphere, the experience didn’t quite match the price point. You can find better service and cleanliness at other hotels in the same or even lower range.

A Slice of Paradise at Innit Lombok From the moment we arrived at Innit Lombok, we knew we were in for something special. Nestled along Lombok's breathtaking coastline, this resort perfectly marries contemporary luxury with the raw beauty of nature, offering a sanctuary for the weary traveler. Our room was a sanctuary of style and comfort, boasting panoramic ocean views that instantly put us at ease. The modern design melded seamlessly with touches of local charm, creating a restful retreat after our adventures. The staff at Innit Lombok deserve a special mention for their exceptional hospitality. They anticipated our needs with genuine warmth and friendliness, which made our stay all the more memorable. Dining at the resort was a culinary delight. The menu highlighted fresh with seafood dishes that stood out for their taste and presentation. In a nutshell, Innit Lombok is a gem. Its enchanting surroundings, exemplary service, and delightful accommodations make it an ideal choice on this beautiful island. It's a place we'll be dreaming of until we return!

Mangkung|3.74km from city center
View: 4.5/5 Villa size: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Maintenance: 2/5 This villa is as big as it looks on their website with amazing view. However, it is quite rundown and needs a refresh, especially the toilet.  The toilet bowl has stains and the overall bathing area are mouldy. I understand we’re in the middle of nature but I would expect better maintenance. Plus the water pressure was low. Maybe it was the rainy season (it rains every evening/overnight), the area is filled with millipedes everywhere, the worst part is that they are in the villa as the doors/sliding doors have gaps. We’re fine if the insects stay outdoors but the millipedes enter our villa every single time and they appear at every creak of the villa. It was tiring trying to keep them out of the villa.  The redeeming factor for the villa is really the view, the Indonesian cuisine at Aura and their prompt service. The view is as amazing as you see on their website, if not more. And they have exceptional food at their restaurant and the service was superb. And yes, there are monkeys in the morning and evenings. The staffs will inform you upon check-in, to lock the doors and avoid eye contact.

Gili Trawangan|1.27km from city center
JUST STAY AWAY FROM THIS DISHONEST HOTEL. While the hotel's facilities are adequate and its location offers acceptable proximity to the port, the poor service we experienced did not justify the significantly higher price we paid for a supposedly four-star resort. Specifically, the bidet in our assigned room was not functioning. When we reported this, a front office supervisor named Ute was demonstrably dishonest, claiming that all rooms had non-functional bidets due to a 'western style' and offering more toilet tissue as a solution. This excuse proved false when we checked several other rooms of the same type and found their bidets to be working perfectly. Upon confronting Ute with this discrepancy, she continued to deny her initial statement, offering unreasonable excuses and failing to provide any apology or resolution. It was only after escalating the issue to the Manager on duty that we were finally moved to another room with a functioning bidet. The fact that a HOTEL SUPERVISOR LIED to keep us in a room with a known issue while others were available is unacceptable. Despite the convenient location, I cannot recommend this hotel due to the substandard service and lack of transparency. There are likely other establishments in the area that offer a far superior experience for the price.

This resort is everything 💯💯💯 It’s 10mins walk from the jetty to the resort. Resort is located at turtle point and is more quiet compared to the hotels/resorts near the jetty. You will be welcomed with cold towel and it is so soothing after walking under the hot sun. The resort is so beautiful from the outside and their room especially their bathroom is Da bomb!! Their staffs are so thoughtful and attentive. they They set up our room very nicely when they know we are coming for honeymoon. They gave us complimentary cake. Their breakfast spread is good and decent. By far the best resort I have stayed in Lombok with such a steal promo from agoda. Will definitely recommend couples to stay here and we will definitely be back to stay at AlMarik. Thanks you for the superb hospitality.❤️

Lombok|26.8km from city center
Room was clean however bugs were a common sight. Open toilet is prone to having mosquitoes. Room is large and has a large bed and sofa. Breakfast is not buffet style but is served in a set. Choose from a menu and have it either at the restaurant or delivered to your room. TV quality is horrible. Staff kept promising to send an engineer to help fix the issue, however no one ever came. Staff only said that issue can't be resolved during our stay, sorry. Disappointed with this aspect. Request for late check out was rejected as they cited that there was another guest booking. However room remained vacant for the next few days. I knew because I booked another stay in a different room. A blatant lie. Very disappointing. Presence of free roaming animals were a cute touch.

A hotel that brought us a lot of surprises and warm feelings, we booked a two-bedroom villa. The hotel front desk manager saw that we were 5 people and immediately upgraded our three-bedroom villa. This is a big villa with a sea view. The room is spacious and everyone can live very comfortably. My son doesn't go to the beach every day in the private pool. Every waiter in the hotel restaurant is very enthusiastic and wants to learn Chinese, especially when I see my parents want to. Eat hot noodle soup, let the chef order seafood noodle soup, the two old people said that this is the most delicious noodle soup we have eaten in this ten-day journey, and the hotel front desk manager arranged the Lengmu Island sengjiji car and boat intermodal package Also very perfect, the price is much cheaper than Taobao, the key is that the Clippers directly to the hotel's beach to pick us up. Unfortunately, our trip to Gili T Island is only two days. I really want to stay in Kokomo for two more nights. If you have the chance to come back to Gili T, we will definitely stay in Kokomo.

Located right in front of Gilly Turtle Point, I was able to swim with turtles every day during my 4 nights and see Nemo friends without any desire. The breakfast is delicious and the staff are shy but friendly. However, compared to Bali Island, the satisfaction of accommodation is low, but I was satisfied with being able to stay in a spacious room with good air conditioning. However, it was uncomfortable that the shower was fixed. If snorkeling is for purposes, I recommend it :)

The staff are all very nice and eager to help. The resort is very beautiful just like the pictures and like out of the movies. The restaurant was great too!  It was quiet there and peaceful. It was perfect for me. All the guests are polite and nice. Only one thing puzzles me. I ordered the ride to the public ferry the last day when I check out. The receptionist clearly told the driver to lead me to the public ferry location. However, the driver led me to a private ferry store. I spotted the scheme by the price. And then, while the driver was there with me, I was told to give the money to another guy. He seemed to be nice and tried to help. Until later on, I realized his helps require money at the end. He asked me specific price for his help and his friend. It was an awful experience. The public ferry was literally just opposite to the private stall. And the driver specifically pointed me to the private stall. I suspect they know each other.  I felt like I was framed just because I didn’t know and asked for help.  Be careful for all the travelers to Indonesia. There are a lot of nice people here, but also be alerted for schemes.

Really nothing but praise for this gem on Lombok island. The hotel is brand new, but I honestly think this will be the number 1 resort in the coming years. No matter its a family vacation, or a romantic getaway for couples, this place has it all. From the unparalleled service, to the amazing food… to some of the most breathtaking sea views on planet earth, this place has it all. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, your stay here will be an unforgettable experience. Truly a highly recommended hotel for anyone heading to Lombok.

We stayed here for one night before leaving Lombok to see Senggigi beach, before that we lived in Kuta. In general, during the rainy season the beach was not bad, better than Kuta, and even the rain that lasted almost all day did not prevent us from swimming in the ocean and in the pool. The pool is also not bad, a great view. Otherwise... an interesting area, but there is a feeling that it is too colorful and motley. Outside the hotel there is nothing really within walking distance. The food in the hotel is very mediocre, well, actually, like everywhere else we ate in Lombok.
