Jeeva Klui Resort

Jeeva Klui is the flagship of the Lombok-based Jeeva group and sits on its own sweep of sand at Klui Beach, just north of Mangsit on the coast road towards Malimbu. The resort uses traditional Sasak-style architecture with thatched roofs and natural materials, and the setting looks out across the Lombok Strait to Bali and Mount Agung.

Accommodation ranges from garden-view suites to beachfront villas and suites, plus deluxe pool villas with their own plunge pools. There is a beachfront restaurant and bar, a spa, a yoga programme and a small gym, and the hotel arranges activities such as snorkelling trips, Gili day trips and waterfall excursions. It has featured on travel-award lists of top hotels in Indonesia for more than a decade.

The quieter location suits couples and anyone wanting a calm base; central Senggigi's restaurants are a short taxi ride south, and the Malimbu viewpoints are just up the road. Book through the resort's own site to see current packages.
