Bayview Beach Resort East Lombok

We booked a late notice stay here as we needed to be near to Kayangan port. It’s a 20 minute drive and the hotel arranged a Tansfer for 200k. The location is nice but slightly strange in that it’s tucked away on the north east of the island meaning it is a little isolated. If you stayed here for more than a day or two you would probably need a scooter or a driver as I’m not sure there is much within walking distance. The resort itself is good and the staff are very helpful and friendly. Two very nice swimming pools and beach access - though it was a little choppy during our stay. You can rent fishing rods and go on snorkelling/boat tours the hotel arrange. Darts, ping pong and a pool table are also available for guest use.

There are little cabins next to the pool and some huge rooms in one block that I imagine are very nice. We were however in one of the four rooms in the block above the kitchen and staff area. Whilst the smell from the kitchen was rather nice the soundproofing is nonexistent. The walls are literally made of plaster board and you can hear everything, a real issue if you have inconsiderate neighbours as we did. Unfortunately we had to endure a screaming child in the next room throughout the night then the call to prayer at 04.45 so we hardly had any sleep at all. The food in the restaurant is ok but nothing special.

Ruime kamer. Stad van het hotel erg vriendelijk en een mooie uitvalsbasis om de secret Gili’s te bezoeken.

Environnement magnifique

J’ai tout aimé

The staff were excellent and helped us sort out transport when needed. The facilities adaquate. An extra pillow each and loungers by the room would have been nice.

Breakfast was obviously cooked early and kept warm for a while. Breakfast not great. Food choice not great. Room head board and behind TV thick with dust and no matress protector.
