While the beaches, bars and restaurants are less crowded as the low season kicks in, Lombok itself is not slowing down. This issue, we bring you all the new openings to check out, events and top spots to eat, stay and play.
There are new cool places for a weekend getaway and we have two very unique options to consider—Villa Sunrise Kuta, a great retreat for sporty types and Innit at Ekas Bay, with one of the most distinctive designs to be found anywhere in Lombok. We look back at Lombok’s top sporting event – Moto GP and showcase the grand opening of TIKA hotel. This issue we also introduce the just opened Nyaman Gallery at Sempiak Seaside Resort, exhibiting fine art from selected Indonesian and International artists and a photoshoot highlighting Balibreezes swimwear.
There is a strong foodie focus this issue, with a profile of Italian fine dining at NOOQ at Qunci Villas and discussing Mediterranean food with Chef Alex Carrillo from Barcelona, who helms the kitchen at Codium on Tampah Beach. Ubud Executive Chef Nic Vanderbeeken brings haute cuisine to Klub Kembali, and bar owner Daniel presents “Stir It Up” stories and recipes.
For budding real estate investors, Nour Estates shows how to avoid those first-time buyer mistakes and ALT Design & Construction highlights the art of Lombok luxury design.
