Villa Awasi: a Sea-View Three-Bedroom on the Tampah Ridge

Lombok's quiet southern coast, a peak position, and a plan that wakes you with the sun.

Editor at large

Lombok is where Bali regulars go when they want the coastline without the crowd. Tampah Hills, on the island's quiet south, is the part of Lombok that has been designed rather than just discovered.

Villa Awasi is a three-bedroom on the ridge: sea on one side, valley on the other, and a plan oriented so the morning light arrives before you do. Sleeps eight, organised around the view and the pool.

It is an hour by air from Bali and a different island entirely — fewer cars, longer beaches, and an evening that belongs only to the people already up there.

Lombok is the Bali you were promised, ten years late and all the better for it.

Tampah Hills is filling for the dry season. Tell the concierge your dates and we will check Awasi first.
