"Cadre très calme qui sort de l'ordinaire avec la chance de pouvoir cotoyer quelques "loups de mer" en escale. On se sent loin de tout avec un personnel toujours au petit soin. Il s'agit d'une destination qui correspond au fameux "pas de côté". Les chambres sont simples et il ne faut pas trop en attendre. Mais l'environnement reste malgré tout magique surtout au moment du coucher du soleil."

"We had the two bedroom villa facing the water and Gili Gede. It was very unique with the beautiful pool and we enjoyed some magical sunsets. Not much around but the place was great for a two-day stay discovering the Gilis."

"O hotel é bem simples. Precisa urgente de uma manutenção. Café da manhã restrito apenas a 1 prato, o que para mim faz muita diferença, pois o café da manhã é a minha principal refeição."

"The hotel is in a quiet sector so if you’re looking to dining outside, you’ll need a car or a scooter, which you can rent directly at the reception (IDR 100000/day).
The room was nice even though the terrace was enjoyable after sunset due to mosquitos !
Breakfast was really nice. Lots of options and very friendly staff at the restaurant.
They offer different “themes”, like BBQ night, pasta night to mention some of them.
Imam was very helpful and welcomed us with a very big smile every time....

"What an awesome hotel!! The location is on top of a hill, which gives a stunning view that honestly can't be beaten in Selong Benalak. The infinity pool gives a sensation of freedom and offers magical sunsets. The staff is great and the manager is always willing to help you for whatever you need. The room isincredible, the restaurant is good. 100% recommended 👌"

"Everything about this hotel was stunning. Our villa was absolutely beautiful, with an amazing private pool and gorgeous views from both the pool and room. The room itself was modern, spotless and incredibly luxurious, and the bed was so comfortable. We genuinely couldn’t fault it.
We had the all-inclusive package and ate at the restaurant a lot. Breakfast was cooked to order from a menu, plus fresh fruit and the BEST pastries I have ever eaten, I still dream about them! Lunch and dinner included a starter/soup, main and dessert, and there was always so much food. Almost too much, but it was all so good. We only had one or two dinner mains that were a little average, but given how exceptional everything else was, it really wasn’t a big deal.
The location was lovely and peaceful. There was a mini mart within walking distance, and the beach was also walkable and absolutely stunning, with a bar right on the beach. The main town isn’t really walkable, but the hotel sometimes offered a shuttle and otherwise it was an easy Grab ride away.
The area was generally very quiet, although the call to prayer could be quite loud. The hotel thoughtfully provided earplugs, and honestly, this wouldn’t stop us from returning. We absolutely loved our stay and would happily come back."
"Checking was a breeze.
Breakfast. I’ve travelled all my life all over the world and have never seen a breakfast like it.
As this hotel is popular with Europeans and Asian visitors they catered for both parties.
What I was most impressed about was the cereal/yoghurt selection. Muesli was already blended with yoghurt, there was a selection of nuts, sunflower, chai seeds and more. Thus I have never come across even at the Ritz Carlton properties. Very impressive. A range of pastries but also baguettes and sour dough. Again have not seen this. Cuppacino, short blacks etc were all part of the breakfast At NO Additional Cost.
Pool, beach and gardens very well maintained.
Our room was garden facing the ocean. Nicely appointed, decent size, bathroom also a good size. Room had a balcony and towel rack which was handy to dry out clothing instead of hanging them in the bathroom.
Something else that I have not seen for a long time, was there booklet on the property. In this was the usual information however when it came to the room, here was the exceptional twist. If you required cotton balls, shavers, and the list goes on all you had to do was contact house keeping and they would be sent to your room COMPLIMENTARY.
We booked through EXPEDIA and included in our room rate was breakfast and one transfer from the airport to the hotel.
Yes, it is an older property but it is clean tidy with no hawkers on the beach. Northern end of Lombok with some nice restaurants just up the road."
"A 1 hour and 10 minute BluBird cab ride north from the airport 330 K IDR.
One bedroom private pool villa. Very good condition, no grime. I would guess 90 square meters indoors and another 90 sqm of pool and decking. Pool about 7M x 3M and 1.4M deep (good if you want to swim, not great if you have children since there is no "paddling depth"). WiFi "ok", aircon adequate , not powerful. 2 restaurants, good food selection, good quality. Prices good until 40% tax+service charges are added. This seems to be an Indonesian custom. It's another 30 minute cab ride to Bangsal for boats to the Gilis. GRAB 150K IDR. Overall, happy. Would stay there again."
"Excellent for an overnight or two stay with incredible views. Staff were very friendly. Room was modern and clean, although AC took a long time to cool room down and shower rail was broken. Pool looked amazing but we didn’t have time to use. Not much in the way of ‘tourist’ amenities outside although there are shops and local restaurants. Sadly the western options for breakfast were very poor and the coffee was the worst we had during our 3 week trip in Indonesia - instant Nescafé."
"Had a really great time staying at Rajavilla. After an initial hiccup with the check-in process, the team were all extremely lovely and helpful and even upgraded us to the lagoon suite with an awesome private pool. Would definitely come back and stay there again."
"We had such a wonderful stay here. We booked the beachfront suite and it was stunning! The bed faces straight out the window, overlooking the beach. The amenities in the room were great and the day bed in the outside area of the room was just brilliant! The staff are all lovely and so helpful and the massages at the spa are incredibly relaxing. The food in the restaurant was all delicious. The hotel is in a remote location so there isn't much around it but perfect for switching off and relaxing."
