Hotels Near Desert Point in Lombok

Pros: - tastefully decorated - fresh and delicious food - helpful staff - amazing sunsets - luxury Robinson Crusoe experience Cons: - very limited vegeterian/no plant based options on the menu, kitchen staff was amazing and cooked for us, but we had to discuss everything before every meal - no easy path to visit other resorts on the island - no umbrellas/shadow at the pool, lounge chairs are all in the sun - no black out curtains, only blinds, good to see sunrise, not so convenient if you want to sleep longer - difficult access from the boat, especially during low tide (sharp corals and shells, slippery) All in all we had a very pleasant stay, would probably only stay 1-2 nights next time though. Would come back and recommend for sure even if there is a bit of room for improvement. Special thanks to Robbie for his kindness and the kitchen staff and waiters.

Turns out it's already RedDoorz. So I'm even more sure because it's definitely okay. The rooms are spacious, I was surprised to get a room as good as this for 200k. Located in the middle of Mataram city right between Senggigi and the airport so it's okay.

nice place to stay in the middle of the city! Their swimming pool has a very beautiful view and i can see mount rinjani from there too. The staff is friendly, the rooms are clean but maybe the food need to be upgrade for variatif menu. overall very recommended!

The hotel is quite decent. Ok for couples and families. Near to the fast food like McDonald at Matarram Mall, convenient store and even Chatime (Korean fast food) just next to the hotel. Transportation (Grab) are easy to get around. I like that they are eco friendly....every level have a umber of water dispensers as such, no bottled water in the room. Good job!!!

Modern hotel in the downtown, good location, easy to find food . I meet a lot of government officer stay at this hotel

Took a 2 hr 20 mins direct Scoot flight from Singapore and then a 1.5 hr car ride to the resort. Booked a car directly from resort and driver was waiting outside after exiting the airport with resort name. We booked the family suite which was the premier suite and the premier room combined, it had a connecting door. Room was huge but no bathtub in either rooms. Separate shower and toilet. There’s also a outdoor shower but I think it’s only for the ground floor units. Comes with safe deposit, kettle and fridge. No ironing board. Their laundry is rather reasonable price. Beds were very comfortable and their air conditioning is cold. We had a few power shut downs but it was resumed very quickly in less than 20 secs. Nice beach but not suitable for swimming as the waves were huge. They have nice pools and sun decks. They have 2 restaurants serving Italian, western and Indonesia food. The Italian restaurant ‘Kliff’ is a must try. Superb food and quality at reasonable prices. Book a table to watch the sunset with Bali island in view. Beautiful sunset. The resort have a spa and gym as well. Tried the spa, prices were very reasonable and cheaper than Bali. Booked their snorkelling trips to the Gili islands and it was awesome! Gili Nanggu was our fav. Will definitely come again, Lombok is more laid back and without the Bali crowds. Things were cheaper too. If you want a nice, relaxing, quiet and good prices, come to Lombok. If you prefer pubs, shopping and crowds, then go to Bali. There’s also public ferries connection between Bali and Lombok. It takes approx 2 hours. Most of them understand simple English and remembers our preference for coffee and how we like our eggs done.

The Matahari Inn is definitely long past its prime! It was probably once a very good hotel, but it was simply not maintained and urgently needs a complete renovation! The rooms are large and spacious, and the beds are also pleasantly large. However, you can see in the rooms that nothing has been renovated for a long time! Cracks in the tiles and the cleanliness is also rather below average! But this was still somewhat OK. BUT the bathrooms are an absolute disgrace and it is actually impossible to rent rooms with bathrooms like that! There were 3 couples of us, the same in all 3 rooms! All the fittings were rusty and corroded! In our bathroom the shower holder was broken, so the shower head always had to be held in our hand! There was no soap at the sink, no glasses for the toothbrushes, and there was only one bath towel, no extra towel! There was only one roll of toilet paper in the bathroom, no spare. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, but it is clear everywhere that the hotel management is absolutely inadequate! When the rooms are ”cleaned”, only the beds are made, the bathroom is not cleaned at all! At breakfast, the staff have to be repeatedly alerted when something is missing or finished! There were always enough service staff on hand, but no one checked independently whether everything was available. The cups and especially the saucers were also very old and not inviting to drink your coffee from! It is clear everywhere that the staff have not been trained and are not monitored or trained! The junior manager told us that the hotel had been empty for 7 years and you can tell! This hotel has so much potential as it is in an absolutely prime location, but as long as it is managed as it is currently, I can only say, never again!

Excellent hotel for the price. The room was modern and clean with a balcony looking over the ocean and you could relax and hear the waves. The room is very large and the bed is comfortable. Just know if you are not there for the marina there isn't much around. But it was a very comfortable place to stay until my ferry to Bali the next morning. Only a 15 minute motorbike ride to the ferry terminal.

20min from airport ,took grab taxi (200k rp) We simply stayed in resort - eat, beach, stroll, simple hike up neighboring hill. Sea is full of seagrass ,not ideal to swim. Not advisable to eat outside warungs,many flies around and on good.

The stay at origin was just fantastic . The rooms are clean . Breakfast is excellent with just enough of everything . The pools are kept clean . Motor bike hire reasonable . Out of town so you need a bike to get around . Great stay at Original
