The Oberoi, Lombok

We were in two minds about staying on Lombok or on the Gili Islands but we definitely made the right choice with the Oberoi. Just 15 minutes from the Bluewater Express jet boat arrival in Teluk Kode, this is a genuine 5 star resort with some of the friendliest staff I have ever encountered, who go out of their way to look after your every need. A snorkelling trip to the Gili Islands, just 15 minutes form the hotel's jetty, was a highlight. Food was excellent, although not cheap and you are a somewhat captive audience. I would seek our Oberoi hotels in future, absolutely first rate.

I don't even know where to start, this place is amazing. It takes a while to get to The Oberoi from the airport, but the drive is so worth it. The hotel grounds are impeccable and picturesque. The pool is beautiful and well kept, rooms are clean, large, and nice. The beach is a little small, but also very nice. The food is amazing. And the staff is awesome - they are so friendly and helpful. Went vacationed at the Oberoi for New Years Eve and they threw an awesome NYE party as well as beach BBQ 2 nights before. We also did the snorkling trip and private sunset cruise, both were great and I highly recommend. My husband and I went together as a couple, but there were a lot of families there, fyi. We went to Bali afterwards and flew there, but i would recommend the ferry option as it is probably much easier and quicker. Overall, I highly recommend this place. We loved it so much that we actually switched our hotel in Bali at the last minute so we could stay at The Oberoi there. Apparently the hotel has a deal if you book both hotels in advanced, fyi! This is by far my most favorite hotel I've ever stayed, hand down.

We spent 3 night in Oberoi Lombok and will leave this afternoon. We are used to travel and discover new hotels but I have to say that we were just impressed by this one: - The place is just amazing with a view on Agung (Bali), Gili islands and fantastic sunsets! - the facilities are great with a nice swimming pool - the rooms (our 205 room was very nice in front of the sea) are great, big enough, nice bed, and very nice and convenient bathroom - The restaurants are very good, specifically the main one for diner, quality of food is just perfect, wine selection is globally good (for French Å“nologist!). Very nice ambiance for the diner, and we were lucky enough to experience local music and dance during one diner - The staff is very nice, very professional, very helpful, trying to personalize as much as possible and anticipating your needs and willingnesses! I strongly recommend this hotel, we came from BALI by speed boat and this is very convenient and quick (1h20m only). We depart tonight from Lombok international airport with direct connection to SING.

My wife and I stayed at the Oberoi Lombok for six nights recently and we cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. The hotel itself is beautiful but what really made our stay so special was the exceptional staff, most notably Harry and Nas who worked by the pool and the Tokek bar. The hotel suite and surrounding grounds were maintained to an impeccable standard. Your every surrounding is is a complete oasis of calm and beauty with excellent service wherever we went. The food in the resteraunts, bar and room service was all excellent quality, beautifully presented and delicious. The views at sunset over the sea were simply breathtaking. This hotel is a little slice of paradise. Thais was our first stay at an Oberoi hotel, we are already planning our next trip to another of their beautiful hotels. Joe and Olivia

This is by far the best service I have had at a resort anywhere in the world!! The resort is stunning, traditional, quiet and beautifully kept. BUT the best attribute is the staff they are so brilliantly trained- a delight I would suggest not for families as perhaps too quiet and limiting but for those couples that want to totally chill this is the place for you remember in Lombok this is predominantly muslim so you will hear the wonderful calling to prayer The hotel provides a complimentary visit to local village by horse and cart- this is authentic and thus should be taken , many of the hotel staff are from this area/village
