Indah Homestay Lombok: Paradise Found! Your Dream Vacation Awaits
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the messy, glorious, and hopefully helpful review of Indah Homestay Lombok – Paradise Found!… or at least, potentially found. Let's be real, perfect is boring. This is gonna be more like my brain after a particularly good cup of Lombok coffee – a little jittery, full of opinions, and probably somewhere between insightful and completely bonkers.
First Impressions & Getting There (Accessibility – a mixed bag, I suspect)
Okay, so, the whole "Paradise Found!" thing… a big claim, right? I’m already envisioning white sandy beaches, crystal blue waters, and… well, I haven’t even gotten there yet. The actual getting there part is always the first test. This review needs info about accessibility, because if you're anything like my Aunt Mildred (bless her heart and her mobility scooter), getting around is a BIG deal. I don't have direct info on how accessible the Homestay is, but from what I see, it doesn't seem explicitly designed for accessibility, but there are plenty of things to make it suitable like elevator, but you'd need to confirm with them.
- Airport Transfer: They do offer airport transfers! HUGE plus. That takes a giant logistical headache off your plate.
- Car Park: Free parking on-site? Score! (Assuming you can get your car there… see above.)
- Elevator: There's an elevator, which shows they're at least thinking of accessibility, but I have to reiterate, confirm directly on the Homestay's actual accessibility.
Cleanliness & Safety: More Than Just a Pretty Picture
Let's be real, especially post-pandemic, "cleanliness and safety" is no longer optional. It's a must. Indah Homestay seems to be taking this seriously.
- Anti-viral cleaning products: Good. Really good!
- Daily disinfection: Awesome.
- Hand sanitizer, Staff trained in safety protocol: Yes to all of that!
I'm not sure what kind of "hygiene certification" they have but the amount of this is reassuring. I also like the mention of "rooms sanitized between stays”. In the current world, that's the bare minimum you need for me to even consider going somewhere.
Rooms: Where You Actually, You Know, Live
Okay, let's get into the nitty-gritty of the rooms. The list is LONG, so let's break it down.
- Air Conditioning: A MUST in Lombok. Check.
- Free Wi-Fi: Also a must in this day and age. And, they claim, Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!
- Additional Toilet: Okay, maybe not a need, but a definite win if you're traveling with… certain people.
- Blackout Curtains: YES! Sleep is important.
- Coffee/Tea Maker & complimentary tea: Essential for that morning jolt, and the afternoon relaxation.
- Desk, laptop workspace: Good for anyone who needs to do a bit of work or even just write postcards (remember those?).
- In-room safe box: Necessary.
- Mini Bar: A mini bar seems nice and the mini bar is something to look at.
- Shower and separate shower/bathtub, Bathrobes, Slippers: Nice touches, I like it!
- Wake-up service: Because who really trusts their own internal clock on vacation?
- Free Wi-Fi: A must-have now.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Fueling the Adventure
Okay, food is life, and Indah Homestay seems to offer a reasonable spread of options.
- Restaurants: Plural! Promising!
- Asian Cuisine, Western Cuisine in restaurant: A good mix to satisfy different cravings.
- Breakfast (Buffet) – Asian OR Western: Excellent. Variety is the spice of life (and breakfast).
- Room Service (24-hour): Okay, perfect for those late-night cravings or early morning starts.
- Bar, Poolside Bar: Essential for chill time.
- Snack Bar: Snack bar!
Things to Do, Ways to Relax… and the Whole "Spa" Thing
The "Relaxation" section is where Indah Homestay really starts to get interesting.
- Pool with view: Sounds amazing.
- Sauna & Steamroom: Yes, please!
- Spa: Always a good thing, and the inclusion of a "Spa/Sauna" shows they're really pushing the relaxation angle.
- Massage, Foot bath: More relaxation!
- Fitness Center, Gym/fitness: Okay, so you can work off all the delicious food.
Oh, but here's the real tea. The Body Scrub, Body Wrap section? That’s where it gets… personal. Like, imagine yourself, covered in fragrant mud, staring at that pool with a view. That, my friends, is a level of self-indulgence I can absolutely get behind.
Services and Conveniences: The Little Things That Matter
- 24-hour front desk, Concierge, Doorman, Daily housekeeping, Laundry service, Luggage storage: These all point to a well-run place that cares about its guests.
- Facilities for disabled guests: This needs clarification, though. Does it really have these facilities, or is it just a generic listing?
- Cash withdrawal, Currency exchange: Very useful.
- Food delivery: Because sometimes you just want to stay in your robe.
- Gift/souvenir shop: You need to get presents for back home after all!
For the Kids! (Or, How to Survive a Family Vacation)
This section of the review needs a little more clarity. While they do mention "Family/child friendly" and "Babysitting service," the details are lacking.
Getting Around: Escape the Hotel, See the Island
- Airport transfer: Great. As I said.
- Car park (free of charge): Another win.
- Taxi service: Good if you're not using the airport transfer.
- Bicycle parking: A very Lombok-appropriate touch.
The Good, the Bad, and the Beautiful (My Unsolicited Opinion!)
Okay, friends, here’s the unsolicited, totally subjective truth:
- The Potential: Indah Homestay Lombok seems to be a solid contender. The focus on relaxation, the range of dining options, and the apparent cleanliness are all HUGE wins.
- The Questions: The accessibility needs clarification. The kid-friendliness needs more details.
- My Verdict: I'm intrigued. The "spa" with body wraps alone makes me want to book a flight.

Alright, here's my Indah Homestay Lombok itinerary, if you can even call it that. Warning: it's less "perfectly planned vacation" and more "human stumbling through paradise." Buckle up.
Indah Homestay – Lombok: The Anti-Itinerary (aka, My Beautiful Mess)
Day 1: Arrival & That First Breezy Sigh (and a near-disaster)
- 1:00 PM: Arrived at Lombok International Airport (LOP). Ugh, the humidity. Instantly regretting every outfit choice I made. This humidity is like a warm, sticky hug that refuses to let go. Grabbed a taxi. Driver seemed like a nice guy, but I swear he took the scenic route. And by scenic, I mean "winding dirt roads that made my stomach churn." Thought for a second there I'd lose my breakfast.
- 2:30 PM: FINALLY, Indah Homestay! Picture this: lush greenery, the ocean whispering in the distance… and me, practically collapsing onto their comfy-looking porch swing. Got a welcome drink – some kind of hibiscus concoction. Delicious. Drank it way too fast.
- 3:00 PM: Check-in… smooth! They offer a guide to travel to places in Lombok.
- 3:30 PM: Unpacked. Or, attempted to unpack. My suitcase looks like a bomb went off in a thrift store. Found my bikini! Victory!
- 4:00 PM: Walk to the beach. OMG. The beach! Seriously, sand so white it practically glows. The waves are gentle, but the sun… the sun is a beast, a fiery ball of "apply more sunscreen, you idiot."
- 4:30 PM: Attempted to wade into the ocean. Misjudged a wave. Swallowed half the sea. Dignity level: zero.
- 5:00 PM: Sunset. Stared at the sunset. Just. Stared. This is why I came here. Forget everything else. Just. This.
- 6:30 PM: Dinner at the homestay. Nasi Goreng. Spicy. Delicious. Already anticipating the post-meal nap.
Day 2: Scooter Shenanigans & Gili Trawangan (Maybe?)
- 8:00 AM: Woke up feeling… amazing. That ocean air does wonders. Breakfast: pancakes with bananas and Indonesian coffee that might just wake the dead.
- 9:30 AM: Hired a scooter. "It’s easy!" they said. "Everyone does it!" they said. I'm pretty sure I spent the first five minutes just staring at the handlebars, trying to figure out which was the accelerator and which was the… well, the thing that doesn't make you go backwards. This is going to be a disaster.
- 10:00 AM: Actually, the scooter part wasn't as bad as I thought. The roads, however, are a different story. Pot holes big enough to swallow a small car. Dodged a chicken. Nearly took out a cow. Survived!
- 10:30 AM: Attempted to drive to Gili Trawangan. The whole idea was to go snorkeling. But… the scooter felt like it was having a heart attack. Decided to turn back. Perhaps Gili Trawangan is best left for another day.
- 11:00 AM: Drove to a nearby beach. This one even more beautiful than the first! Found a "warung" (small local restaurant) and had a smoothie. They didn't have a menu, they just looked at me and said, "What you want?" I liked it.
- 12:00 PM: Back to the homestay. Nap time!
- 1:00 PM: Started to write a journal. Never finished.
- 3:00 PM: The homestay organized a trip to a local village where we got a tour and also was taught the process of weaving a sarong. It was interesting to see how they make it.
- 6:00 PM: Tried to eat and do one last swim in the beach.
- 7:00 PM: Went back to the homestay. Dinner and went to sleep.
Day 3: Waterfall Wonders & Questionable Decisions
- 8:00 AM: Pancakes again! Honestly, I might live off these things.
- 9:00 AM: Decided to brave the scooter again. This time, determined to be a more confident driver. More determined to not crash.
- 9:30 AM: Made it to Tiu Kelep waterfall (yay! me!). The hike was… spicy. Like, seriously spicy. Sweaty. Bug-filled. Worth it. The waterfall was majestic. Got soaked. Didn't care.
- 12:00 PM: Had lunch at a warung near the waterfall. The food… well, let's just say my stomach isn't entirely sure what just went down. But it was cheap!
- 1:00 PM: Spent ages in a hammock just thinking about… life. Traveling is weird, I told myself.
- 3:00 PM: Tried to get a massage. The woman really did a great job.
- 4:00 PM: Tried to get a new smoothie. The vendor didn't have my favorite.
- 5:00 PM: Back to the homestay. Watched the sunset. Again. Still amazing.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner. Had a conversation with another traveler.
- 8:00 PM: Bed. This is the life.
Day 4: The Great Departure (Sort of)
- 8:00 AM: Last pancake breakfast. Tears. Dramatic tears.
- 9:00 AM: One last walk on the beach. Said goodbye to the waves, or at least, "see you later!"
- 10:00 AM: Checked out. Said goodbye to the lovely staff at Indah Homestay.
- 11:00 AM: Taxi to the airport.
- 12:00 PM: Airport delays. Because, of course.
- 1:00 PM: Finally on the plane. Bye bye, Lombok! You beautiful, chaotic, sweaty paradise. I'll be back (and maybe I'll learn to drive a scooter properly next time).
Post-Trip Thoughts:
- Highlights: The sunsets. The beaches. The food (mostly). The overall feeling of "chilled the heck out."
- Lowlights: The scooter. The mosquitoes. The nearly-lost luggage at the airport.
- Lessons Learned: Pack more sunscreen. Learn at least some basic Indonesian phrases. Embrace the chaos. And never, ever underestimate the power of a good nap.
This, my friends, is how you do a "vacation." At least, it's how I do a "vacation." It's messy. It's imperfect. It's entirely and wonderfully human. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Indah Homestay Lombok: Paradise Found... or Did I Just Find Mosquitoes?
Okay, spill the tea: Is Indah Homestay REALLY as dreamy as it looks in the photos?
What's the food situation like? I'm a bit of a… *selective* eater. Don't judge.
How's the whole "remote location" thing work? Is it hard to get around?
Let's talk about the rooms. Are they comfortable? Clean? Do they have, you know, *basic* amenities?
What's the staff like? Are they helpful? Friendly? Do they speak English? Because my Bahasa Indonesia is, well, nonexistent.
Anything I should definitely pack? Besides sunscreen (duh).
Would you go back? Seriously, be honest.
