What's included in the surf and stay package?
Included in the surf package is daily breakfast, guided surf instruction, daily coaching, photo analysis, video analysis, surfboard rental, surfboard insurance, transportation for surfing (boat and car), surf theory, surf recovery yoga, surfskate, surf fit class, family dinner twice a week, a welcome drink, a welcome tote bag, gym membership at Xeno Fit (full access to the gym and group classes during your stay), and unlimited sauna, ice bath and magnesium bath at The Slow Studio. Each room type has wifi, air conditioning, a terrace and hot water. We also have parking and airport pick-up.
How much does it cost?
Prices depend on your dates, room and number of people, and change with availability. See live prices at lmbksurfhouse.com/book or send us your dates. Full-week stays get a weekly discount, and returning guests get 10% off when booking direct.
How do I book and pay?
Book at lmbksurfhouse.com/book, or message us and we’ll book for you. A 50% deposit secures your booking, paid online by card. The balance is due on arrival, by cash or card (Visa or Mastercard).
What if my dates are sold out?
Join the waiting list on our booking page and we’ll contact you if space opens up.
Can I book just a room, or just surf lessons?
No. We only offer our Surf & Stay package, with a 2-night minimum. We don’t offer accommodation only, surf lessons only or day visits.
Do I have to stay a full week?
You can start your surf and stay package any day of the week! We have a minimum 2 night stay and we also offer weekly discounts for full-week bookings (7 nights).
Please note the activities included in the surf package happen throughout the week (please see our weekly surf schedule) so if you book less than a week we cannot guarantee all of the activities. But we will try our best to make sure you have the best experience during your stay.
Your booking includes the activities on your days booked. We don’t surf on your check-in day: you join the surf briefing at 5 PM, and surfing starts after that. You can surf on your check-out day instead, but session times depend on tides and conditions, so please keep us updated on your travel plans.
On the day of your check in, regardless of your level, we will have a short meet and greet/orientation in the evening. For beginners, this will include a surf theory lesson. For intermediate to advanced surfers, we will set goals and review board sizes with you and your surfing experience.
What's your cancellation policy?
If you cancel 2 weeks or more before arrival, we refund 50% of your deposit (25% of your total stay). Within 2 weeks of arrival we can’t refund, including for illness or injury, so we recommend travel insurance.
Can I change my dates or transfer my booking?
Date changes are possible 2 weeks or more before arrival, subject to availability, and the price may change. Bookings can’t be transferred to another person.
Is there a minimum age?
Yes. We’re adults only, so all guests must be 18 or over.
Are you open all year?
Yes, except for Eid al-Fitr. In 2027 we’re closed 9–11 March. The last check-out before the closure is 8 March, and the first check-in after it is 12 March.
Do you have a brochure?
Yes we do. You can download it using this link: lmbksurfhouse.com/info
How many times a day do we surf within the surf package?
Within the package, 3 days per week we surf twice a day, and 4 days per week we surf once a day as we have other activities (please see our weekly surf schedule).
On the day of your check-in, regardless of your level, we will have a short meet and greet/theory in the evening.
For beginners, this will include a surf theory lesson. For intermediate to advanced surfers, we will set goals and review board sizes with you and your surfing experience.
Will we all go to the same surf spots or will we be separated by level?
Here at LMBK we create groups based on skill level, so you will always be surfing waves suitable for your skill level and surfing goals.
There will never be more than 2 students per surf coach in the water.
The times that we surf in the morning and afternoon depend on the tides, conditions, and levels of our surfers. Therefore, the times that we surf differ, and we set up our surfing schedule the day before to get the most accurate forecast.
Are there any beginner courses? Advanced courses?
Yes! We have all levels of surfers come through here, from their very first time on a surfboard to advanced surfers. We can help you work on more advanced techniques and goals too.
Can I bring my own board?
Yes. We have a storage room for guests’ boards, and you can use ours any time too. The price stays the same.
What should I bring?
We provide a rashguard and a bath towel. We don’t provide reef booties, so bring a pair if you have them, and bring zinc for the sun.
Is airport pick-up included?
Yes, pick-up from Lombok International Airport is included for all room types. Send us your flight date, time, number and WhatsApp number, and our driver will meet you when you land. We don’t pick up from Bali. Airport drop-off isn’t included, but we can arrange it for about IDR 200,000. Harbour pick-ups aren’t included either. Most guests arriving by boat hire a driver at the harbour, which is usually cheaper and easier, or we can arrange a car from Bangsal for about IDR 550,000.
How do I travel from Bali to Lombok?
There are three options:
– Fly from Denpasar to Lombok, under an hour. Your airport pick-up is included.
– Take a fast boat from Padang Bai to Bangsal, 2–2.5 hours, then about 2 hours by car to Kuta.
– Take the slow ferry from Padang Bai to Lembar, 4–8 hours, then just over an hour by car.

What visa requirements are there?
Everyone flying into Indonesia from abroad must complete the free All Indonesia arrival card within 72 hours before arrival, at allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id. It isn’t a visa. Many passports also need a visa on arrival (e-VOA), so check the rules for yours before you fly.
What are the check-in and check-out times?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM and check-out is at 12:00 PM. We can store your luggage if you arrive early or leave later. The 5 PM surf briefing can’t wait for late arrivals, but we’ll catch you up before your first surf.
What food is included?
Breakfast is included every day except your check-in day, plus family dinner twice a week. Lunch isn’t included. We have vegetarian and vegan options, so tell us about any dietary needs or allergies.
Is scooter rental included?
No, scooter rental is not included in the price. But we can help you rent one while you’re here!
