Mega Cottages

Ok…so the shower is only cold water (actually not THAT cold), there are no hangars for your clothes, and the wifi is spotty. But this place still manages to be wonderful. A confortable cabin only a few steps from the beach and lovely pool. Staff are ever so friendly. We loved our five days in laidback Lembongan.

Lovely simple cottages at a great price. Family run and staff were fantastic. Room service only when requested, never annoying. Always felt good about the place, Perfect pool right on the beach with many dining options along the beach or main road. The only things I didn't like were no hot water (not a big issue in the tropics) and bathroom had a window behind the bed which shone a bright light at night.

Fantastic location, right on the beach. See the most beautiful sunsets every day and everyone different! The staff here are fantastic and nothing is a bother. Breakfast isnt included but they do make breakfast and a small lunch menu. The food was excellent, omelette every day, freshly squeezed juice and the best coffee! The Indonesian curried chicken was truly the best I’ve had and we were in Bali for a month. Apparently always freshly made and so flavoursome. I’d go back just for that! Bed was very comfortable and shower was hot and spacious. Fridge in room worked well along with the Airconditioning. We had a front bungalow which gave us awesome views. If you want to do anything while there the staff are happy to organise for you. We hired a golf buggy and drove ourselves around the island which is something you should do. Loved our time at Mega Cottages

This was my 2nd stay here. We used to stay at Nusa Indah next door but it got too crammed and the evenings with extremely loud live music were just horrible, so we moved onto Mega Cottages. They only have 9 x rooms, 5 x bungalows and 4 x rooms. The bungalows cost more and have ocean views but are not as modern as the 4 x rooms at the back. There are no TVs and breakfast is not included in the price which is unusual give the relatively high price charged for basic bungalows on the beach. The pool is lovely and the family owners are just super friendly and nice. You have to specifically ask for housekeeping, pool towels, soap, toilet paper, otherwise they will not clean your room and you will get nothing you don't ask for. The price per night has gone up by roughly A$25 per night in the last year. The back rooms are now 700k compared to 450k last year and the front bungalows 800-900k which is a steep increase. It's a lovely place to have a holiday. The location is great. The beach is out front and the gardens are relaxed and pretty. But this year they rented out all of their sun lounges and the pool use to anyone who asked, so there are lots of young random backpackers and tourists who pay $10 per night in the back streets come and hang out for the day. There are 6 lounges by the pool and 8 lounges on the beach. Some days all were rented out without time limit - some backpackers stayed for 8 hrs straight -and there was nowhere to sit for the guests paying $70-90 per night plus the pool was crowded with young couples /backpackers drinking Bintangs and taking up all of the space which made this often an annoying instead of relaxing stay. I do understand they need to make money but the place was fully booked every day which meant they were some 25 guests around eating, drinking, using the pool and wanting sun beds and the space they paid for in calm surroundings. I could have saved myself $400 that week by staying in a back alley and renting a sun bed for the day. Next door (Lembongan Resort) told all the people "no, just for guests". I think Mega Cottage will lose return guests if they don't manage this better, as there were multiple families who had zero space to sit anywhere. The front bungalows are old. Mine had broken floorboards which needed fixing.

Bungalow style accommodation overlooking Jungut Batu beach is perfect for couples wanting a small scale property in this flatter location of Lembongan. Easy to walk to shops, cafes, restaurants and other activities compared to the more ‘hilly’ Mushroom beach. This beach is coral based so shoes needed to walk along or to go swimming but the water quality was very good whilst we stayed here. The rooms are compact but very comfortable, the staff are absolutely brilliant and personally we loved this accommodation and hired a scooter through the property to explore the island including Ceningan. There are many properties along the beach where you can stop for a drink or meal and the sunsets from Mega Cottages is the best you’ll find anywhere! Highly recommended.

Great spot, very quiet and the staff was super helpful

At first glance, the bungalows appeared to be in good condition, but upon closer inspection, it became clear that they were not living up to expectations. The bathroom was in poor shape, particularly the shower and taps. My air conditioner was not functioning properly, some of the furniture was quite dusty, and there was no WiFi in the room. Furthermore, I was overcharged for a ferry ticket, and the staff lied to me directly.
