Long overshadowed by its neighbor across the Lombok Strait there is a steady hum about Lombok that catches the ear of travellers who are looking for something different than Bali. Blessed with exquisite white-sand beaches, epic surf, a lush forested interior and hiking trails through tobacco and rice fields, Lombok is fully loaded with equatorial allure.

Lombok is also home of Gunung Rinjani, Indonesia’s second-highest volcano; the summit is complete with hot springs and a dazzling crater lake.

The Island’s southern coastline is nature on a very grand scale with breathtaking turquoise bays, world-class surf breaks and massive headlands.

It’s been rumored that development on these splendid beaches is just around the corner. Sure enough local government has invested a substantial amount of funds for the development of local infrastructure and roads. This can be clearly seen on the way from the Airport to Nipah Bay were the 7 Secrets Resort & Wellness Retreat is located.

While maintaining an unadulterated charm unspoiled by mass-tourism, Lombok is now ready to welcome visitors who are willing to experience a taste of true local culture, tranquility and still enjoy features of modern conveniences.
