Accommodation on the Nusa Islands

Nusa Lembongan

Budget: Backpacker hostels and simple guesthouses from 100,000-200,000 IDR (6-11€). Lembongan Hostel in Jungut Batu is well managed. Indiana Kenanga offers bungalows with a pool in a perfect beachfront location.

Mid-range: Hai Tide Beach Resort (from 700,000 IDR) — right on Mushroom Beach with a pool and restaurant. Batu Karang Lembongan Resort (from 1,200,000 IDR) — the best property on the island with an infinity pool over the bay, spa, and excellent restaurant.

Luxury: The Sandy Bay Beach Club offers daybeds, a pool, and upscale cuisine — perfect for a luxury day.

Nusa Penida

Budget: Homestays and guesthouses from 150,000-300,000 IDR. Most are located around Toyapakeh and Crystal Bay. Penida Colada is a popular backpacker hostel.

Mid-range: Semabu Hills Hotel (from 600,000 IDR) offers modern rooms with a pool and sea view above Crystal Bay.

Note: The quality of accommodation on Nusa Penida is generally lower than on Lembongan — expect adventure charm, not perfection.

Nusa Ceningan

Few options, but original ones: Le Pirate Beach Club offers minimalist wooden huts right on the cliff edge with a communal pool and campfire atmosphere — perfect for backpackers and solo travelers. From 300,000 IDR.
