Best Things to Do in Lombok Near Your Beach Villa

If you're staying in a beachfront villa in Lombok, you're already on the right track for a peaceful and luxurious island escape. But the experience doesn’t stop at your private pool or ocean view — Lombok is full of natural wonders, cultural gems, and marine adventures.

Here’s a guide to the best things to do in Lombok, all within easy reach of your stay at Beach Villas Lombok.

1. Snorkel in Crystal-Clear Waters

Just steps from your villa, you can access calm and shallow waters perfect for snorkeling. The nearby Gili Nanggu, Gili Sudak, and Gili Kedis islands offer some of the clearest waters in Indonesia, teeming with colorful fish and coral reefs.

Tip: Ask our staff to arrange a private snorkeling tour by boat — we’ll take care of the details.

2. Explore Secret Islands

The "Secret Gilis" are a hidden gem of southwest Lombok — a group of small, untouched islands easily accessible from Beach Villas Lombok. These are perfect for:

• Day trips

• Picnics on white-sand beaches

• Kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding

Unlike the more famous Gili Trawangan, these islands are uncrowded and serene — ideal for a more authentic island-hopping experience.

3. Sunset Beach Walks

One of the best parts of staying at Beach Villas Lombok is that the beach is literally your backyard. Enjoy long sunset walks along the shore, where the sky turns pink, orange, and gold — often with no one else in sight.

Add a glass of wine or a romantic dinner under the stars to complete the moment.

4. Visit Traditional Villages and Local Markets

Lombok is rich in culture. A short drive from the villas brings you to Sasak villages, where you can experience traditional weaving, food, and local crafts.

You can also explore local markets in Lembar or Gerung for an authentic look at island life — and maybe take home some spices or handmade souvenirs.

5. Trek to Benang Stokel & Benang Kelambu Waterfalls

If you're in the mood for a little jungle adventure, take a half-day trip inland to Benang Stokel and Benang Kelambu waterfalls. Nestled in lush forest, these cascades offer a cool break from the beach and a chance to swim in freshwater pools.

Our team can help arrange a private driver and local guide for the journey.

6. In-Villa Experiences You Shouldn’t Miss

Don’t forget: Some of the best experiences in Lombok happen without leaving your villa. At Beach Villas Lombok, we offer:

• In-villa massages

• Private chef dinners

• Floating breakfasts

• Yoga sessions on your pool deck

7. Day Trip to Gili Islands or Kuta Lombok

• Gili Trawangan (fast boat available)

• Kuta Lombok for surfing and trendy cafés

Then return to the peaceful embrace of your beachfront villa — no crowds, no noise, just nature and comfort.

“We snorkeled with turtles, hiked to a waterfall, and still had time to watch the sunset from our pool. The staff made everything effortless.” – Jess & Marco, Netherlands
