The Countdown is Officially on

We are thrilled to announce that Samara Lombok has secured a substantial investment from Westgrove Partners. This major funding milestone accelerates our final phase of development and solidifies our official opening for Q1 2028.

With funding fully committed, our momentum on the ground has multiplied. Construction is pushing ahead rapidly on our 150-hectare south coast destination:

  • What’s Open Now: Our very first restaurant, showroom and accommodation options are now operational, in addition to the organic gardens and food production facilities.
  • Under Construction: Over 50 luxury villas, The Clubhouse, and Tiga Kelapa are actively taking shape.
  • At Opening: At launch, we are delivering a complete, world-class destination featuring three boutique hotels, 150 villas, and 12 distinct dining concepts.

Global Brands Joining the Journey

We aren’t just building a resort with a pool—we are creating a premier lifestyle ecosystem. We are proud to confirm a powerhouse lineup of launch partners:

  • Hospitality: Southeast Asia’s very first Destination by Hyatt
  • Culinary: Curated dining concepts by celebrity chef Will Meyrick and children’s cookery icon Annabel Karmel MBE.
  • Adventure & Sports: Marine biology and wellness by Rascal Voyages, alongside soon-to-be-announced globally elite tennis and football academies.

A Different Class of Asset

For our owners and investors, Samara Lombok represents an unmatched opportunity. Unlike the standard 25- to 30-year leases common across nearby Bali, our villas sit on a rare 90-year leasehold—offering a highly de-risked, long-term asset backed by over US$3.2 billion in government infrastructure flowing into Lombok.
