ARISTA Homestay Sikur (ARISTA Homestay Sikur)

优点： We had the second floor room, and it was amazing. It was very large with a high ceiling and wrap around balcony with views of the rice paddy next to it. The AC worked well, and the bathroom was nice. Wifi also worked very well.nnWe ate almost every meal here. Arista is a great cook!nnHe worked at another homestay for 20 years before opening his own here last year, so he knows what he's doing. We loved the two days of seeing waterfalls, visiting local artisans, and walking through the area to monkey forest. He takes care of everything for you!nnWe only spent three nights here, and they were the best in Lombok. I recommend spending at least 4-5 nights (more if you're going to do Rinjani or big expeditions like that), and it's a good idea to bring 500k - 1M in cash for each day here. There are some ATMs in Tetebatu, but it's more of a cash place. You aren't going to find souvenir shops and big hotels. Everything is very local here which we loved.

优点： Amazing experience staying with Aris and his family. The accommodations are modern, clean and well equipped. The garden is beautiful and the house is right next to a stunning rice field which you can see everyday when waking up. The host also took me hiking through the surrounding rice terraces passing by beautiful waterfalls and the monkey forest. Along the way he explained everything from the rice farming process to the different fruit and vegetables which are everywhere on the way. You can also visit the many artisanal crafts that make Tetebatu a special place on Lombok.nThe host and his wife are excellent cooks and the food at their establishment is the best I have tasted in Indonesia. All ingredients are fresh and locally sourced, everything tastes more than usual.nThe atmosphere is fun, laid-back and friendly.nWould definitely recommend.

优点： Our stay at Aritsa, hosted by the amazing Aris and Anita, was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were embraced with such warmth and hospitality that we instantly felt at home. Aris and Anita have created a truly special place, and staying here felt like being welcomed into a family.nnThe food was an absolute highlight – every meal was bursting with fresh, local flavors and prepared with so much care and love. It was some of the best food we’ve had during our travels, and we found ourselves looking forward to every meal with excitement.nnThe homestay itself is even better than the pictures – a perfect blend of comfort, charm, and the beauty of nature. The rooms were spotlessly clean and cozy, and waking up to the stunning views and serene surroundings was a dream.nnAris truly goes above and beyond for his guests. He couldn’t do enough to ensure our stay was perfect, from arranging activities to sharing fascinating stories about the area. His genuine care and dedication are what make Aritsa stand out as more than just a place to stay – it’s an experience to treasure.nnIf we could rate this place higher than a 10-star rating on Booking.com, we would give it an 11. The reviews you’ll read are genuine because Aritsa is genuinely incredible in every way. We left with full hearts, cherished memories, and an eagerness to return. Thank you, Aris and Anita, for everything – you’ve created something truly magical.
