Istana Ombak Eco Resort

Прекрасное место на берегу моря. Очень вежливые хозяева. Обязательно перед тем, как идти купаться, получить у них инструкцию по течениям, они подскажут, где безопасный заход в море. Хороший завтрак. Можно заказать ланч-бокс с собой на вынос.

Бассейн маловат. Впрочем, это мелочи, зато море рядом.

Tolle Location für Surfer. Die anderen Gäste waren auch nur Surfer. Der Strand und die Szenerie ist phantastisch. Herrlicher Sonnenuntergang. Es war sehr ruhig, wenig Gäste und es war sehr entspannt. Alle haben sich große Mühe gegeben und waren sehr nett. Tolles Frühstück mit schönem Ausblick aufs Meer.

Die Preise sind vergleichsweise hoch, wir empfanden das als unangemessen. Aber es gibt halt nicht viele Möglichkeiten in der Gegend etwas komfortabler zu wohnen. Die Anreise ist lang und die Straßen sind schlecht.

The Location, Views & Staff were amazing.

Nothing

We traveled as a family with 3-adults and 1-child (10yrs). One of the adults is an eldery women (70+), who can walk, but very slowly. That being said, after a long 3/4 hour ride from Jogja, we received a warm welcome by both owners (Dewi and Rod), who (including the staff) were amazing during the whole stay. Nothing was too much to ask, and they often comfortably checked-in with us if we needed anything during the 4-nights we stayed. They made sure we received a modern new villa close to the main area and is all same leveled floor, ideal and very thoughtful. The beds, supplies, WiFi, smart-tv and bathroom where all well maintained and hygienic. From our villa, within 30 steps, we entered the open-air-with roof restaurant, were we had our wonderful breakfast, lunch and dinners while having them we enjoyed the scenery including the amazing ocean and big waves. We could just sit anywhere and enjoy the waves for hours. When exiting the resort on the beach-side, we crossed a small walking path and were right at the large beach and ocean. This is the definition of beachfront! It was absolutely not crowded whatsoever, even if you share the whole beach with some locals, fishermen and surfers from the area. If you are not an experience surfer or swimmer, it is not recommended to enter the water too deeply, as the waves (ombak) are very strong. Just be cautious and careful. Being in the shallow water at the right time is so fun and refreshing. We also made use of the resort pool, which was also modern, well maintained and clean. Beds are available pool side. The transportation to Jogja was done via their local driver, who brought us in a well maintained and modern vehicle safely to the airport. As it is said, I could not agree more: Hard to find, harder to leave! We make sure we visit again if we are in the area some day in the future. Thanks for having us!

I don't have anything I don't like. But if I have to pick one thing: It would be nice to have an English version of the instruction manual in the room. But with the technology nowadays, it's easy to translate. The owners do speak fluently English :)
