If you’re looking for a surf resort in Lombok (or even Indonesia) look no further. Run by a lovely and personable South African couple (Melissa and Dave), Eka’s Surf Resort offers an amazing location, wonderful food, local staff, hospitality, and fantastic surf coaching. I booked the all-inclusive Surf Camp package which was worth every dollar. Location: The resort is located in a very small village, within 5 minutes of multiple surf breaks (Dagong’s, Kura Kura, outside Eka’s, inside Eka’s, Eka’s beach break). Accordingly, the surfing suits all levels, beginners, intermediates and advanced. Although it may seem daunting to be away from the main town of Kuta Lombok, Eka’s location is far superior and allows surfing at all times of the day. Surfing: The resort offers a week long surf camp which includes meals, surf coach lessons, surf guiding, videography, excursions and theory sessions. I was travelling solo and this was the perfect option for me, it felt like I was surfing with old friends. The resort provides a boat service which will take you to some of the breaks at any time of the day. The other breaks are a short scooter ride (Eka’s Resort rents scooters). Huge shout out to the surf guides Amir and Ahir, who were extremely helpful and friendly to surf with for my whole stay. Also to Ewan, the surf coach, and Dave who levelled my surfing up in such a short period through a mix of in-water coaching and on land coaching (surf skate and video playback). Resort: Most importantly, the staff here are exceptional. They make you feel at home, and treat you like an old friend, whilst catering to your every need. Thank you to, Iskanda, Effie, Mousea and Pashere (apologies for incorrectly spelt names and to those I missed). The rooms are clean, functional, comfortable and perfect for relaxing after a huge day in the water (air conditioned of course). The restaurant/cafe space is awesome, with a great pool and chill out area. The food is exceptional and so is the chef. Locally sourced organic foods with a mix of Indonesian and western options are available, I loved every meal especially the Beef Rendang and Nasi Goreng.
