Accommodation in Jungutbatu & Mushroom Bay on Nusa Lembongan

Jungutbatu & Mushroom Bay on Nusa Lembongan are popular places for people to visit for a few days, whether it be to relax, snorkel or surf the breaks at Playgrounds, Racetracks or Lacerations. There are plenty of accommodation options available, all on the beach or close to it.

Much of the accommodation is at the beach in the north of Jungutbatu, although you can find accommodation all round the bay. Just like other popular places in SE Asia, including Koh Phangan, Thailand, the once popular bamboo shacks are being replaced by cement blocks. People go ‘money mad’ when they think tourists are coming, but some of the older bamboo places still remain. You’ll pay more for an ocean view than a room with no view. Most places offer a cold water shower, fan and no breakfast.

Guide books publish phone numbers of these guest houses / hotels / villas. The lower end ones often cancel their phone line, or the person who owns the cell phone (081 pre-fix) loses it. Anyhow don’t rely on the phone working in the cheaper places.

Many places will pick you up as soon as you arrive in Lembongan, if you call ahead.
