Samara Lombok

Samara Lombok is joining the Destination by Hyatt collection – becoming first resort in Southeast Asia to join Destination by Hyatt, a diverse global portfolio of independent hotels, each purpose-built to reflect the spirit of its destination. The integrated development in south Lombok will join Hyatt’s portfolio of 15 properties in Indonesia, across 7 brands including Alila, Andaz, Park Hyatt, Grand Hyatt, Hyatt Place, Hyatt Regency and The Unbound Collection by Hyatt.

Lombok is known for its untouched beaches and prime surf breaks that are amongst the best in Indonesia. It is also home to Mount Rinjani, the second highest volcano in the country, and a popular trekking destination.
