Central Lombok Regency Hotels with Pools

I’m going to start w the positives. Amber is in a beautiful location on a private beach with nothing around. The walkways are lush with blooming banana trees and pineapple plants. I used the spa everyday while I was there. The treatments were all wonderful and in a peaceful ambiance. The staff was very friendly from the front office to the walkways and in the restaurant. The restaurant was very understaffed on Saturday night for the bbq dinner. The servers were great they just needed more hands on the floor. It seemed the manager of the restaurant just sat up front on his phone all the time. The hotel is very family oriented and I didn’t pick up on that at my time of booking. Kids running and screaming all day long. Parents, nanny’s and staff yelling for children that were running around wild all day. At Breakfast, lunch/pool time & dinner they were multiple family’s just letting the kids run around everywhere. There wasn’t any peaceful time at the pool to read or relax. At 1 point there were 12 small children at the pool on Sunday. The one day I didn’t got to the pool because it was so crowded. I love the room when I checked in but that faded quickly. Lots of mosquitoes in the room. I killed at least 10 by hand and every time I left I sprayed the poison can they left in the room. The bathroom had a terrible smell all the time. The bedding was dirty dirty not stained it was unwashed. I left the clean room sign on the door all day I figured by the time I got back from my massage it would of been by 4:30 and it was not. The comforter was covered up by the blanket and never changed since prior guests. It had blood marks that had not been washed for who knows how long. I was bit by something in the night on my face around 3:30am and my face swelled up. I turned the light on but couldn’t see any insects. It hurt so bad. I told the front desk the next morning and they got me an ointment to put on it. It was swollen for days and very painful. I had expectations that it would of been amazing but it wasn’t. My food was all delicious, the restaurant staff was very nice and friendly, the spa was great but the structure of the hotel has a lot to work on for the price. I’ve been in lombok for 2 months and I’ve never seen so many small children. If it was advertised as kid friendly I would of picked somewhere else. Even at check out a family was also leaving and 2 of the 3 kids were crying and I said there has been kids screaming and crying every hour for the 3 days I was there. Wi-Fi doesn’t work in the rooms For the money there are many better options in south lombok

We enjoyed the stay at Kebon very much! We loved our front Boy (so sorry we forgot his name) he was always smiling and very thoughtful about little things! We had our breakfast pancakes made ”thin” and crispy by him and it was delicious! Everything was clean and still new. This place is recommended for people who look for a more quiet option, away from the busy streets. You will need a bike to get around when you stay here!

We stayed here the night before catching a flight from Lombok airport. The hotel is very handily positioned for the airport and they run a free taxi service to the airport at 8, 10 and 12. There isn't much to do outside of the hotel however they do have a restaurant on-site. The rooms were OK but required a more thorough clean. The white plastic coating on the toilet seat had worn away in places and there were soap stains in the bathroom. The towels we were provided with were frayed at the edges. The bed was comfortable and air-conditioning good but I'd only reccomend staying over before a flight.

This hotel is very conveniently placed near the airport, with a free shuttle. Room is clean and tidy, staff are very nice and polite. Only bad point is that the food is not very good, I think all products are frozen and not fresh. But breakfast is quite nice with lot of choice. I would recommend if you need hotel before / after your flight

It's my first time on Lombok Island, so I stayed only for one night. It has a very calm atmosphere and you can have the best vacation. The hotel was quite quiet and calm as there were not too many hotel rooms. The pick-up service to Kuta city is also very convenient. The facilities were great, especially the pool and private beach. Not only the facilities but also the service was particularly good and kind. Especially the service of Mr. MAYA was nice. Thank you.

By now you’ve probably looked at reviews and all the stunning online photos—as we did. And you’re probably imagining a lush, beautiful, active lifestyle boutique resort with healthy Ayurvedic food, surf beaches lapping the shore and a yoga studio. This image couldn’t be more wrong. Picture instead a bus stop from the 1960’s on the side of a disused road. This is the feel of the entry restaurant that sits atop a largely arid hillside with none of the lovely plants pictured on the site. There were a couple of palm trees over dying grass, concrete and sand. The photos are so far from the reality that we thought the place was abandoned long ago—and perhaps taken over by squatters who thought they could make a fast buck. We were honestly frightened by what might happen next. While it does indeed seem to be a hotel, the photos and descriptions are so far from reality that we walked around in a stupor trying to sort out the cognitive dissonance. Could it be that the resort that constantly touts itself as a yoga surf resort might have neither yoga nor surf? Not even a real beach? No….couldn’t be. Right? The owner kept asking us what we expected to find and the truth was that the photos were so far from reality that it was hard to even know where to begin. We said we expected a private beach-so he pointed to a fabricated sandy area roughly the side of two kids sandboxes with a metal fence around it. We expected five surf beaches—instead there isn’t any sandy beach at all and the surf spots are accessed by boat for a few. We expected yoga—he assured us there is yoga (though it’s hard to see where he could be hiding it) and other reviewers say the yoga consists of a mat and a spot to practice on your own. We expected plants and trees and a hang out area by the pool. Instead the large pool was empty and the little ones were so full of algae that I wondered whether the “EcoResort” was gathering carbon credits off the green pool growth. It’s a very good thing that we didn’t pay in advance, since we were able to pay only a day’s rate and leave quickly. But the place is so remote that we literally lost five hours of vacation getting there, touring it and getting back to where we started. Not to mention enough money that we could have stayed at a luxury hotel on the island for the amount we tossed away in a rush to leave. The owner was kind enough to offer us tea and let us use his wifi to find another hotel—a kindness we very much appreciated—but our anger grew when we finally settled at a lovely hotel and compared our photos with the ones online. What an utter misrepresentation. We’re uploading the photos here—the one with sand under the shadow of a palm tree and a metal fence—THAT is the beach. We both nearly died laughing when he pointed it out, but the owner was clearly upset and we were just trying to get out without a massive conflict. Zoom in on the pool with water in it (as opposed to the one they were filling with a garden hose) and you might get a sens

I contacted the hotel by email, but I was surprised that the response was quick. The room was neatly arranged, and all the restaurants were delicious and stiff. The staff were all friendly and comfortable, especially the front desk staff was excellent and hospitality mind. I asked for a transfer at the hotel only on my return (from the hotel to the airport), but it is a very conscientious price. If you are troubled to negotiate the price with the taxi driver, you may want to ask the hotel. When I stayed 々, except for me 々, I was all Westerners (higher age group), and I was able to spend a really quiet and relaxing time. I want to repeat.

Wir freuten uns sehr auf unsere Unterkunft in den Telescope Villas. Als wir eincheckten waren wir noch hellbegeistert. Die Mitarbeiter an der Rezeption offerierten uns auf Nachfrage, dass sie uns einen Roller von einer Vermietung organisieren können. Also bezogen wir in der Zwischenzeit unser Appartement. Als die Mitarbeiterin die Infrastruktur erklärte, erwähnte sie, dass der Pool nur kaltes Wasser besitzt. Dies warf bei uns Fragen auf. Wir schauten uns das Bett an, es waren grosse Flecken auf den Kissen, unter der Decke befand sich ein schwarzes Haar und weitere Flecken. Nach gut 1 1/2 Stunden wurde uns ein fast neuer Roller für die nächsten 5 Tage gebracht. Wir erwähnten dann gleich bei der Rezeption, dass das Bett sehr schmutzig sei und ob sie es wechseln könnten. Kurz darauf wurde das Bett frisch und sauber bezogen. Da uns der kalte Pool verunsicherte, fragten wir erneut nach. Der Mitarbeiter erwähnte, dass es nur unser Zimmer 307 sei, das einen kalten Pool besitze. Das machte mich stutzig. Ich fragte erneut nach. Dann kam per Zufall ein anderer Mitarbeiter zur Rezeption und platze ins Gespräch. Er sagte es sei jeder Pool kalt und das könne man nicht ändern. Es wirkte als möchten sie etwas verstecken oder Strom sparen. Am Abend wollte ich mein Gesicht trocknen, öffnete ein frisches Handtuch. Darauf befanden sich riesige, braune Flecken. Es sah aus, als hätte jemand das Handtuch vor mir gebraucht. Also nahm ich das Tuch zur Rezeption und zeigte es dem Mitarbeiter. Ich sagte ihm, dass es sehr schmutzig sei und ich sehr unzufrieden bin. Er ging nicht darauf ein, seine Antwort war: evtl. hat ein Mitarbeiter vergessen das Tuch auszuwechseln. Er entschuldigte sich nicht, stellte es hin als wäre es mein Fehler. Er sagte: Kein Problem wir wechseln dies aus. Ich war entsetzt von dieser Reaktion. Als wir nach einem Tag Scooter fahren am Abend in der Villa eintrafen, kam der Mitarbeiter der Rezeption schon angerannt. Er äusserte, dass wir den Scooter wechseln müssen, da unser Scooter am nächsten Tag in den Service musste. Wir waren etwas stutzig, erhielten dann einen anderen Scooter. Dabei schien es als wäre der Ersatzscooter von der Villa selber obwohl sie ja keine Scooter vermieten. Wir fragten ob wir den anderen Scooter nach dem Service zurück erhalten. Der Mitarbeiter erzählt, dass dieser wahrscheinlich nach dem Service anderst weitig vermietet werde. Wir können jedoch den Ersatzscooter behalten, es sei das selbe Modell nur etwas älter. Also probierten wir den Scooter aus und fuhren zum Abendessen. Während dem Beschleunigen unterbrach die Gaszufuhr teilweise aprupt. Die Spiegel waren nicht zu gebrauchen, da man darin nichts sah und die Bremsen waren einfach nur schrecklich. Als wir zurück kamen erzählten wir dem Mitarbeiter, dass wir diesen Roller nicht mieten möchten. Er gab uns noch einen dritten Roller zum ausprobieren, doch auch dieser entsprach nicht dem normalen Standard. Wir beschlossen den Roller in Kuta für die restlichen Tage zu mieten.
