Season’s greetings! As the festive buzz winds down in Lombok, our favourite venues are easing out of the Christmas and New Year rush. After all the food, drinks, and revelry, we’ve gathered some inspiration for a slower, more relaxed way to enjoy the season ahead—check out the interview with the new chef at Tampah Hills, Pak Almatino, while Daniel from Klub Kembali introduces the intriguingly named “Belum Nama” cocktail. Also, see what culinary delights are on the menu at La Cabaña restaurant.

Enjoy a cosy luxury stay at Villa Luna, Gili Air and Dejama Glamping Resort—if you’ve never experienced glamping, now is your chance. There is also an insightful interview with Budi Wahjono, the GM of Pullman Lombok Mandalika. Looking to unwind after the festive rush? Laid-back Gili Meno is just the place.

After the excesses of New Year, take time to detox. The Spa and Wellness center at Rascals with sauna, ice bath and magnesium pool is just what you need. We report on how HONEST Made in Kuta has teamed up with Classroom of Hope to build schools out of plastic. Nour Estates looks back on the year and explains what’s changed in the property investment market.

mylombok recently collaborated to host an event to help launch Blackrock Vodka and Three Peaks gin in Kuta, and we look back at last month’s Race to Selo. There was also a Pizza Shack Glass Fundraiser.

Here’s to another great year ahead in 2026.
