This lovely Lombok resort could be described as being a slow burn, but its location on the soft Senggigi Beach sands is unbeatable. Originally built as a family home by descendants of Javanese royalty, the resort’s decor has unexpectedly elaborate elements in places, and a homely, welcoming atmosphere. The villas at the secluded spa annex, just 2 km inland, are our favourites, as you have the surrounding tropical gardens virtually to yourself.
The rooms are decorated in traditional style, using carved woods and local textiles in a variety of vivid shades. The restaurant overlooking the beach serves a range of local and international specialities, including plenty of fresh local seafood. Walk barefoot across the sand, lay back by the pool, treat yourself at the nearby spa, and enjoy a bit of offbeat beachside bliss.
On Senggigi Beach on the north west coast of Lombok, this bijou resort is perfectly positioned for romantic honeymoon moments and blissful relaxation.

We love luxuriating on golden sandy beaches as much as anyone, but we love an interesting backstory even more, and it doesn’t get much more unusual than a beach boutique run by descendants of royalty! It’s not just the novelty factor at play here, though: the warm welcome and sense of family history really adds something extra to the idyllic location.
Lay by the pool, wander along the gorgeous beach, practise yoga in the garden, enjoy delicious beachside dining, and snorkel and dive in Lombok’s phenomenal marine habitat.
