JEEVA KLUI , with its superb tropical beachfront location and traditional yet luxurious design, is a new boutique resort that is meeting demand for a simple yet indulgent Lombok experience. Jeeva Klui, the Soul of Klui, nestles on beautiful untouched Klui beach, a little north of the Senggigi tourist centre.
Framed by tropical greenery and offering stunning sunset views to Bali’s volcanoes, Nusa Penida and Lombok’s Sekotong peninsular, the 1.5 hectares property makes sensitive and effective use of local materials such a stone, recycled timber and thatch to give a relaxed, traditional village atmosphere. Stone and timber pathways lead along hand-hewn stone walls to the resort’s spacious 27 suites which achieve an atmosphere of simple, authentic sophistication with finishes of handmade terracotta tiles and bamboo. Large private terraces feature inviting outsize daybeds.
Jeeva Klui has a mix of 54 squaremetre beachfront suites, ocean view suites and pool villas, each with a flat screen television, huge bed and modern luxury bathroom featuring stone and timber. WiFi is available in the public areas and in the pool suites. This is a very stylish and intimate property whose 170-metre beachfront is protected by an offshore reef that creates a natural swimming lagoon
