My (now) wife and I have just left after the most amazing 4 nights at the lombok lodge to continue our trip down south, and I was genuinely emotional having to leave. The whole team (more like a family) went above and beyond at every opportunity to ensure we received the highest service possible, something which neither of us are used to as fairly simple travellers, but we are and will be, eternally grateful for. The whole resort is absolutely immaculate and the attention to detail here is mind-blowing, but it wasn't this that has compelled me to leave a review with such high praise. It was the people. They are all so genuine, kind and caring and for me, this is what makes the lombok lodge what it is. Never have I stayed somewhere where the staff will leave such a lasting impression. It genuinely felt like home. The rooms, grounds, food and service were all impeccable. The breakfast and evening meals were out of this world (we skipped lunch most days due to being so satiated from breakfast), but the one lunch we did have was equally as delicious. Special mention to the incredible Chef Jiwa who continually produces the highest standard of food each day and comes to converse with guests regularly. To the owners Anya and Ben, you have created something truly magical in the lombok lodge, crafted with love and passion you provide memories that will last a lifetime. Hamdi is an invaluable asset, yet another person who made sure our experience better than we could have imagined. The beauty of the resort really has to be seen and experienced to be believed. We stayed here as part of our wedding trip, with the ceremony organised by the lombok lodge and held on their private beach on gili meno (bagno di gili). Everyone will have a different definition of the word perfect, but for us both, our special day was just that. We really couldn't have wished for it to be better. I could continue singing their praises until my phone battery dies, so I'll wrap it up by saying again, a million times over, thank you. We will be back again, and until that day comes every one of the team will remain in my heart.
