Bruga Villas is a tranquil, comfortable villa property in Selong Belanak that has become something of a social hub for the area, home to two distinct food and drink venues under one roof: the Bruga Coffee Shop, which serves breakfast and lunch from early morning, and the Surf Kitchen, a rooftop bar that extends the day into the evening. Reception is staffed around the clock.
The villas
The villas offer a relaxed and comfortable base in one of South Lombok's most appealing beach destinations. Pricing sits in the mid-range, positioning Bruga as a practical option for travellers who want a genuine stay rather than a bare-bones backpacker setup, without the premium rates of the larger resort properties. The villa format gives a sense of privacy and ease that suits longer stays.
On-site food and drink
Having the Coffee Shop and the Surf Kitchen rooftop within the same compound is a notable convenience. Guests can start the day with breakfast and coffee downstairs, spend the morning surfing Selong Belanak's beginner-friendly beach break, and return for a late-afternoon drink upstairs with a view. The rooftop format — uncommon in this part of the coast — adds a vantage point over the surrounding village and bay.
Location and getting there
Selong Belanak is a broad, sheltered bay on South Lombok's coast, roughly two to two-and-a-half hours from Lombok International Airport depending on traffic. Most visitors arrive by scooter or hired car. The village is compact, and Bruga Villas is accessible from the main coastal road that threads through Selong Belanak. There is currently no dedicated website, so bookings are best arranged through accommodation platforms or by direct inquiry.
Bruga Villas suits surf-focused travellers, couples, and anyone who wants a sociable but unhurried base in Selong Belanak with reliable food and drink on-site.
