West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia
Lombok is my favorite place so far. This island has so much to offer from beaches, mountain, friendly people, good food. I think Lombok is better than Bali, not many tourists and more quiet. I Left My Heart in Lombok ?
i liked lombok better than bali overall. less tourist & congestion here along with friendlier locals. the money exchangers didnt try to rip me off like in bali. i drove around the entire island except for northeast area. met lots of locals who wanted to take selfies with me & to talk. had a blast with the locals at pancor kopong waterfall. the convenience stores try to rip you off so you have to watch them closely. selong belanak beach was the best beach in kuta but super crowded. nipah beach & senggigi beach were best in senggigi/mataram area. i prefer senggigi/mataram over kuta but both were good. definitely recommend a visit to lombok.
I have been here a couple times and it continues to be my favorite island in Indonesia. It is absolutely beautiful here. The people are friendly and do a much better job than other places in Indonesia of taking care of their land. From snorkeling, to hiking, the water falls and the sunsets, it truly is an amazing place.
Lovely island with lots of different terrains Came here with no expectations how ever was impressed by the absolute beauty of the place. It had different attractions at different points. Beautiful mountain in the north to beautiful beaches in the south . So beautiful and unique that some of them were the best I've seen in my life , especially pantai tomang omang. Lots of lovely masjids , which are very beautiful and the best part was trustworthiness of the people here, it was so surprising to see the kindness and helpfulness of the people here. No one is out here to loot you or your money. People are genuine and I'm afraid that it has spoilt me cause I absolutely loved the behaviour of the people. One if it's kind ,island. Mind you the smaller places are not the best in facilities and food can be an issues , especially if you aren't used to it or if soy sauce dosebt suit you. Over all the beautiful is breathtaking and stunning. Won't mind coming back here one day. Would do it again !! P.S - Big spiders and other insects are quiet common in the tropical Island
Great surf! Quieter than Bali which is not a bad thing. Ocean was beautiful. People friendly oh and did I say great surf!
