Villa Kai Lani sits on a hill above Selong Belanak, on Lombok's quiet south coast. It feels a world away, but it's an easy trip: about 35 minutes by car from Lombok International Airport. Here's how to get here, whether you're flying in directly, coming over from Bali or travelling with little ones.
Flying into Lombok
Lombok International Airport (LOP) is near Praya in the centre of the island, and it's the closest airport to the villa. There are direct international flights from Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, and Scoot now flies Singapore–Lombok 10 times a week. From elsewhere, most guests connect through Bali or Jakarta, both of which have frequent short domestic flights to Lombok.
Coming from Bali
If you're already in Bali, the quickest way over is the short flight from Denpasar, which is in the air for well under an hour. Fast boats also run from Bali to Lombok, but they arrive in the north of the island, which leaves a long drive down to the south coast. For families especially, we'd recommend flying.
From the airport to the villa
The drive takes about 35 minutes, heading south towards the coast through villages and green hills. You have a few options:
Villa airport transfer. We can arrange a driver to meet you at arrivals and bring you straight to the villa (at extra cost). Our drivers know exactly where the villa is, so there's no searching for directions after a long journey. It's the easiest, smoothest way to arrive, especially on late or early flights.
Airport taxi. Use the official taxi counter in the arrivals hall rather than drivers who approach you outside.
Ride-hailing apps. Grab and Gojek work in Lombok for airport pickups (from a set pickup zone), but they aren't a reliable way to get around South Lombok once you're here. Cars can also be scarce very early or late at night.
Travelling with kids
Let us know your children's ages when you book and we can arrange car seats for the transfer. At the villa you'll find a cot, high chair, baby bath, and toys, games and books, so there's less to pack. For more ideas, read our guide to Lombok with kids.
A few tips
Book your transfer ahead if you land late at night or early in the morning.
