The Jayakarta Lombok Hotel & Spa

Loved this resort. A little bit out of town but that's what we wanted. Food and staff were excellent. Would definately recommend this resort for a quiet retreat. Rooms were very clean and comfortable.

The hotel was on beautiful location right on the beach... everything was perfect except TV which had only local 17 channels...no discovery channel, national geographic or music channel and also with poor clearity and leaking sink, which they fixed once I reported.... staff was very friendly and helpful... overall was a good hotel...just need to update their tv channels with good clearity.

Nice room and surroundings, though a bit dated. We stayed here as it was convenient to go for Dolphin Dive School dive courses (which we highly recommend btw). Pool looks family friendly. There's a nice, clean private beach and even beach vendors who are easily accessible at a designated space yet do not tout. Breakfast area is beautiful if you can get a table facing the beach. One downside is that the hotel seems to host many conferences/local business meetings so breakfast becomes crowded and events like a karaoke night may disturb your rest (there seems to be event space at both ends of the compound). Restricted hours for hot water so do take note

the hotel is on the beach front .I just loved it. I had a very pleasant stay. there was a wedding in the hotel wow it was in experience. the people of Lombok are very welcoming .

The room description says "soaking bath with a separate shower" but the room given has "shower/tub" combination. Only very small 2 bottles of water were given.

The Jayakarta has its charms. Stuck in the past, with big rooms and focussed on local families, which is fine. But needs to update itself for more demanding and discerning travellers. WiFi was awful. Senggigi is a good stopover if you’re planning trips to the waterfalls and mountains up north. But not much to offer on its own. Mangsit Beach closeby is a must for swimming, sunsets and dinner.

Great pool and nice beach! But hotel is very old and the food is not worth the expensive money...

The toilet can do with a bit of renovation. Bed was comfy, breakfast was good. Too strong chlorine in the pool. The beach is no clean to swim.

Hotel is definitely dated. There is nothing around it. I would recommend staying further north where the beach is good cause the beach here was black and bad. The food was good though. We ate two meals at the restaurant. Mainly because unless you have transport its the only choice.....BUT surprisingly great chicken parm and steak. It's a slow, old, bit tired hotel. Not horrible, but not great. I'd only stay there again if I wanted a break from the outside world. Service was good though. Would like to add that hot water is only available at certain times, so if you stay READ THE MANUAL IN THE ROOM. It was the first thing I did when I sat down at the desk and found out useful things like the water not always being hot

The resort was ok for three stars, happy with that. The staff could have been a LOT friendlier than they were. The restaurant was a joke!!!! I ordered what was supposed to be imported New Zealand steak - it was so terrible that I could not even cut it let alone eat it - I was charged $22.00 which I refused to pay. This is the worst meal I have ever been served. Due to a dull and boring menu with sub standard food I ate pizza for four nights in a row. I finally decided to go to the Sheraton just up the road and was furious to find out that their meals were superb and were actually cheaper than the Jayakarta Lombok restaurant - very disappointing. Terrible food!!! This restaurant needs to pick up its game - the resort is a little bit isolated so having to dine out every night was a pain. I will not stay here again purely because of the terrible restaurant
