A close friend (thanks, John) told us about Qunci, adding to the list of reasons we are grateful to him. This is, in our view, the best all around value place to stay in Lombok. It’s beautiful here. Tasteful, soothing, chic, Qunci Villas is really three small hotels – two are beachfront almost next door to each other, save for the small guest house owned by someone else. But it’s a quick, easy walk on the beach to get between the two properties. Even the least expensive garden view room in Qunci Hotel is charming. It’s worth it to spend a little bit more and stay at the almost-adjoining, more upscale Pool Villas Hotel. The third property is perched on a nearby hill, offering stunning views of the surrounding area. It is the most exclusive of the three properties.

One of the best things about Qunci is their breakfasts, which can be served on your verandah – a feature of all of the rooms. The selection of American/European and Indonesian options is great and improves all the time. On our last visit, we loved their pancakes – an elegant version of the McGriddle, involving two proper American pancakes served with a layer of beef bacon, thin slices of apples, and cheese tucked in between, and finished with a light dressing of maple (sadly, maple-flavored, rather than the real thing) syrup.
If you seek quiet solitude, avoid a room near the restaurant, where each evening beginning at about 4pm, there is somewhat loud club music emanating from the ample speakers, reverberating to nearby guest rooms.
