Villa Pemandangan

In a word... EVERYTHING! Pemandangan in Indonesian means 'scenery'. And the location is beyond compare. Absolute Waterfront Location. Across the calm, blue bay there is a range of lush, green hills. Beyond that in the distance you can see the spires of the Muslim Centre in Mataram. (See, but not hear!!) Then there are the Hidden Gilis... Three picture postcard islands you can almost reach out and touch! Perhaps the most amazing thing you can see is the Rinjani volcano. It's not always visible and is usually shrouded by cloud. But when it appears it is simply breathtaking. You can take this all in whilst relaxing in the pool or poolside, from under the pendopo, or from your own personal loungers if you're staying in the Villa. You will want for nothing from Julie and Neil - the owners. They are incredibly welcoming and hospitable! Julie's hospitality is second to none. And her cooking.... Oh My Goodness!!! Yes - we were treated to the fabled whole fish other reviews have mentioned. But also amazing Ayam Taliwang and THE most delicious chicken and tempe kebabs with sate sauce. Her Nasi Goreng is pretty good too!!!! Breakfast was a choice of eggs, beautiful home-baked muffins, French toast and regular toast with condiments. The coffee was brewed in the local style and was akin to Turkish coffee. Fresh fruit was provided every day as well. Everything was prepared fresh and as you requested! Neil took us to and from the airport and gave us a fantastic guided tour of the island en route! He also organised a motor cycle for us for a day. This bike was in fantastic condition and we took it all over the south western part of the island going two-up with ne'er an issue whatsoever! They offered us experiences of going out to the Gilis too and would have gladly arranged this for us. We went there to leave the world behind for a few nights, and I could not think of a more beautiful place to have done this.

There's very little to not love about this accommodation. We stayed in the Villa and the only thing I can say is that the water pressure was very low. That would be to do with the premises sourcing their own water from their well. BUT.... the shower was beautifully hot!!!

We liked absolutely everything accommodation food was great. The hosts were great amazing. Lunch and dinner were great.

Second visit and is hard to beat. The place, the food and the hosts are 10/10 for us. We look forward to returning for a longer stay next time.

air con could be a bit stronger. Nothing else that we didn't like.

Hosts (Julie and Neil) are just the best! Helpful with information, guides, transport and meals!! Food was simple, tasty, fresh and a nice change from the usual warung type food. A wonderful place to finish our time in Lombok.

Nothing!!

Wow wow wow. If you need to unwind, relax and take in the beautiful view of the secret Gili's well this is it. Fantastic hosts and amazing food cooked by Julie. Must have is the whole fish...and the chicken...so so beautifully cooked. Meals were so large we just had to fall into bed so we could sleep off the food coma...💕 We stayed for 5 nights and could of easily stayed more...next time. We slept in the huge front villa. Aircon & fan in the room. Bathroom was massive with a good shower. Drinking water is provided with tea & coffee making facilities. Bed was very comfortable...slept like a baby.

Nothing.
