I think there are few places to be discovered these days where you can experience authenticity in its pure state - here at Beloam, you are truly in Lombok. Not an altered tourist-friendly Lombok but a raw, beautiful, unmodernised spot. Beloam Beach camp provides you with the luxuries you need in order to sleep, wash and eat well - it is really beautifully done - the beds and style of the beach houses are impeccable. There is zero noise apart from the sound of the ocean - there is zero light pollution; the stars are insane. There is limited access to WIFI and the generator provides electricity at certain periods of the day. The hot water is questionable but ample. The staff are pure joy - attentive and proud, smiley and sweet - they literally will try to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The food options are great if you are happy with spicy and local - this place is not really designed for children and therefore the menu can be a little difficult for a longer stay if you have fussy eaters. Eggs/pancakes/white bread are available but this can be a bit boring after 5 days of breakfast, lunch and dinner. There really is no alternative eating spot within an hour (by motorbike) of the camp. I would suggest that 4 nights is long enough here - we were so excited to explore the local area but it is so remote that I think you can do all you are capable of doing in 3 whole days before you would have to sleep in a different spot. We saw bat cave, Japanese cannon, watched sunrise from the view point, snorkelled on pristine undamaged corals, trekked to look-out points, discovered totally isolated and ruggedly raw white-sand beaches and made a lot of meaningful connections with locals who were friendly and curious about us - it is a quiet and deeply traditional muslim community - the sight of westerners in their bikinis was clearly a spectacle for some of the villagers and the local children where fascinated by our kids. I did feel self-conscious at times of my i-phone and jewellery, my pink bikini and holiday nails (!) but not in an unsafe way - more in the respect that this is not for 'holiday' makers but more for 'travellers'. If you go with that in mind, I think I would have made a few different choices in my wardrobe and my accessories. A long-sleeved top for bathing in the water for example when with locals on the beach. As part of a trip with many different stops including instagrammable places in Bali - I had not necessarily prepared for this more authentic part of our trip. It turns out that this was the most magical in so many ways. I cried when we left. I really felt like this was a unique spot and so undiscovered for 2023. I hope the readers of this review will take this on board - and not try to alter this authentic place. Bon voyage!
