What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This resort stands proudly on a crescent-shaped white-sand beach, lined with coconut palms and facing a dazzling expanse of clear turquoise water.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
On Nipah Bay facing Mount Agung, tucked away along Lombok's quiet northwest coastline.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling glass doors slide open to thatched terraces with open-air rain showers and plush daybeds.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Canopied daybeds and a circular whirlpool sit along the pale wooden deck, set against palm trees and the beach.
The spa and gym
Botanical spa rituals begin with floral foot soaks in copper bowls, and the gym uses Technogym equipment.
At the table
L’Angelo Bianco serves local seafood along the beachfront terrace, and The Majesty hosts formal dinners under crystal chandeliers.
How it began
An earthquake and the pandemic halted its 2018 opening, keeping the property shuttered until Bali-based Hanging Gardens revived it in 2023.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
