TOP 4 MUST DOS ON LEMBONGAN….
It’s a tough one, but here goes!

1.     The Deck café & bar

The Deck Café & Bar is a unique island spot that is candy for the eyes in itself. Perched on the Nusa Lembongan hillside along the boardwalk above Jungut Batu beach, experience carefully crafted cocktails and fresh, locally-sourced casual plates. Dramatic & colourful sunsets with the boats coming & going, watch the world go by with the pristine views while sinking into the island life.

2.     The Pontoon by Lago Bali

This isn’t your average bar—it’s a luxurious oasis on the open ocean. Some call it a sanctuary, a paradise, for us, it’s the Pontoon. We had a dream to create a space for ocean lovers, adventure seekers and those that love to connect and unwind. Meet new people with a wide range of interests, from surfing to yoga and everything in between. Did you know that The Pontoon is fully powered by solar panels with its own water filtration system. With its prime location, delicious food and refreshing cocktails, the Pontoon offers an unforgettable experience that will leave you longing to come back again.

3.     Thai Pantry (our neighbour!)

Located next to us, our neighbour along the waterfront is Thai Pantry. The menu is stocked with food you want to eat and like! And have you seen their kombi bar cocktail car? The atmosphere takes you to cosy – street style Bangkok. Wood tables, cheap plastic chairs, have a drink on a triangle cushions, communal area and solo traveler seating. A short and simple menu including the usuals, Thai Green Curry, Pad Thai or the Panang Curry. Delightful springs rolls, fatty pork bites. They bring the street food from Bangkok to Nusa Lembongan.

4.     The Howff Whisky, Gin & Wine Bar (Hidden Speakeasy)

 Tucked away under The Deck café & bar from the Island bustle is an authentic Scottish experience. For a wee dram or a gin globe of the finest calibre, this unique dungeon bar on the rocks over the sea is the first in its class on Nusa Lembongan. Whet your tastebuds with a plethora of single malts, as well as a unique gin menu of underground, speakeasy finds. Unique pairings served with class by a touch of Scottish-Balinese character, The Howff is the “secret meeting place” where the old school British West meets in the South East.
