    Best place on Nusa Lembongan

    Nothing negative about the accommodation. But we did not like the snorkel 'tour' we booked through Wayan. It was with a local on his small boat, he did not speak any English, the boat was slow and the waves to big so we didn't see much. Would have been better to join a group tour on a bigger boat.

    Pondooks Joglo is a great place to stay in Lembongan. It all looks brand new, the bungalow is quite big and the bed is amazing! There's good aircon and a hot shower. The swimming pool is very nice and there are only 4 bungalows so it's never too busy. Wayan is a great host who makes sure you'll have a great time. We arranged scooters through her and also the boat back to Bali which was all organised perfectly. So I would recommend everyone to stay here, awesome price/quality.

    I didn't like they overpriced tours & tickets for the boat. I booked a transfer for Gili Air and they charged me 475.000 Rupiah, however the price online with the same company was only 300.000 Rupiah. So be aware and make your book online. Also, I did not like the snorkel tour they booked for me. It was not book with a real company, only with a local who has a boat and they charged the same price of a proper professional company.

    The bungalow is gorgeous. The pool is really nice. Close to dream beach & sunset beach. 15 min from mushroom bay.

    I loved everything about Pondooks! A small group of 4 joglos meant it was super quiet. Still close (walking distance) to a range of cafes and restaurants, as well as dream beach and mushroom beach. The owners were SO lovely and helpful. They organised a scooter, snorkelling and transport to the port for us. Would definitely stay here again.

    Everthing was perfect

    Pondooks Joglo is the best place I've stayed in my entire Bali trip. I enjoyed here so much the lovely clean kept pool and the room is great. I sleep incredibly well in the house that is all to yourself. Everything is new and you get good value for money. It's even too cheap for what you get, everything is perfect. The staff is incredibly friendly and will help you plan different trips. Like snorkeling, a trip to another island or if you want a massage. Super sweet and we could ask them anything. You can also rent a scooter there. Had a great time here!! We even extended our stay for an extra 3 days. Many thanks to these lovely people :)

    We originally planned 6 nights and then extended it to 9. My best place to stay ever has been and we travel quite a bit. Super clean, heavenly garden and an incredibly great pool. The complex consists of 4 lovingly designed Bali bungalows for 2 people each with an outdoor bathroom and a super huge comfortable bed, leaving nothing to be desired. Breakfast is very good. I want say : The owner Mrs Wayan and her husband Butu, I have never met such lovely people as these two, every wish was fulfilled and they also organized everything, snorkeling tour, scooter's, transfer and lunch at the pool from the neighborhood Warung - everything is made possible. The location is excellent, within a radius of 250 meters there are about 15 restaurants and Warungs, all with very good food and great staff. It's about a 10 minute walk to Dream Beach, or 2 minutes by scooter. The island is quiet, no cars, no comparison to Bali. Best location on Lembongan! We come back, that's for sure !!!

    We loved our stay at Pondooks Joglo so much! The infinity pool and bungalows have a high standard and everything is very new. We enjoyed the privacy as there are only four bungalows and a lovely garden. The location is also perfect with Sandy bay, Dream beach and many good restaurants in walking distance. The family owning the place is so lovely and always looking out for you. We will come back 😊

    If only I had spent here all the week I had on Lembongan! I'll be back though, that's for sure.

    An ensemble of five really stylish and squeaky clean huts close to Dream Beach (7 min walk). They are very new too. The bed was super comfy, and oh my heart, the swimming pool was to die for!! The best pool in all my 2-month long trip around Bali and this was my 10th hotel/ homestay so I have a solid base for comparison 🙂 The best of all however is the owner, Wayan, who is such a warm-hearted and super nice woman!

    We loved our stay so much, we didn’t want to leave. The owners are lovely and very helpful, providing information of tourist sites and ticket prices and have bikes to rent for the day. The room was clean and the bed was so comfy! The pool was relaxing and the perfect temperature. We have been travelling through SE Asia for 3 months and this has been our favourite stay! We did ask to extend our stay but unfortunately they were fully booked. We will definitely be back.

    Pondooks Joglo is a luxury feeling oasis on the island of Nusa Lembongan. The owners are extremely kind and helpful, they organised our transport to and from the boat, rented their bike to us and gave great information on the area and trips to Nusa Penida. Breakfast each morning was fresh and tasty, the banana smoothie was a great way to start the day. The infinity swimming pool is clean and the sun beds provide a great place to relax in the afternoon too. The location couldn’t be better. It’s away from the hustle and bussle but only a short walk to sunset beach and there is many fantastic restaurants around it. Our room was cleaned daily, the air conditioning works very well and the Wi-Fi worked well for what we needed. Overall, this was one of our favourite places we stayed in Bali and we can’t recommend it enough!

    This is a gem of a place to stay on Nusa L & really glad we found it by fluke. Very warm welcome from Wayan and her family, they can't do enough for you. The pool is spectacular, and only a short scooter ride from all the beaches. The Villas and furnishings are brand new. There are very good restaurants & Warungs nearby.

    Pool is closed quite early despite asking what time the pool is closed and a member of staff the mum or the manager, said all night if you want. Pool lights are shut before 8pm. Found no one around after 8pm. I did manage to get the pool open again including the lights and filtering till close on dead on 10pm. I found maybe the mum or the manager a little rude not customer friendly. No empathy, no friendlyness. It was like just a business transaction. Take the pool for example, came dead on 10pm,she came up to me saying are you finish as I want to close up. Obviously, said yes but wanted to just sit in the pool relax and admire the surroundings and stars. But I felt I had to finish up and head to my hut. Another example, knowing the check out is at 11am on check in and confirmed with the manager/owner. During breakfast the next day, she came up and asked when I'm I checking out. Obviously said 11am, did not say anything like how are you, did you sleep well. Granted only booked one night, but would have stayed a week, but how I was treated looking back glad I only had one night. I moved to a real family bungalows down the road and that was very loving, stayed 6 nts. Also the hot water is irratic even though it's a mixer shower, too hot or too cold, doesn't mix well. External neighbours was noisy either chanting, or the dogs was barking. A little construction noise across the road. Noise from the road which is a main road, scooters and taxis zooming past, note the hut's are not soundproof, that can kill the relaxation. The two lads are great sadly limited English. One of the gave me a lift to my next accommodation which was kind of him.

    Only a single night as it was booked up. Spacious, hut's are seperated so no noise from the neighbours. The pool is amazing, hands down one of the best. Breakfast is OK nothing special. Internet is fast. Close to eateries. Scooter rental.

    The staff were amazing! It is run by a Friendly and warm couple who will cook you breakfast and help you organise activities on the island, as well as transfers. Great location too, with a great cafe next door and à restaurant across the road. if you hire a scooter you can get to larger beach bars and shops in 5 mins.
