Aman Gati Hotel & Resort Lakey Peak Sumbawa Indonesia

Review for the hotel and the surrounding environment. This hotel was initially great with comfortable rooms and fast WiFi, but the pool water is stagnant and the front yard is not well maintained. Breakfast is sufficient, but might be lacking for those who are physically active. The beach has great potential. It's great to see many 'bule's visited the beach. Unfortunately, the pavement along the shoreline is damaged and there's a lot of trash. Local government must improve Hu'u without sacrificing local UMKMs/MSMEs. Final rating: 3/5 but I will give 4. ⭐️

When you want to pay with card they charge you an extra 3% which is not allowed according to bank Indonesia. The room did not have a rubbish bin, was moldy and just too expensive for what it is. Maybe was worth it once upon a time, but those times are gone.

I was relieved of all my aussie cash. ($500 to $600) in $50.00 notes. Apparently anyone can enter your room. |I returned to find a guy who told me he had been through my bags looking for the motorbike key, (which I was ready to return to reception). |Wouldn’t recommend this place to my enemy.

The rooms are basic but clean and cleaned daily also. The menu in the restaurant offers a good selection of both western and local foods, and the staff are happy to deliver to your room. Walk out the gate of the resort and onto a beautiful beach. It really doesn't get much better...

The place is dirty and run down. I had a pump at the back of my room that kept me up all night and after mentioning it to the staff nothing was done about it. The restaurant staff were rude. The pool is disgusting and I'd never want to swim in it. I was extorted by the local taxi drivers on the hotel premises and all the manager had to say was I should pay the money for the privilege of using another service.

EVERYTHING is HORRIBLE, except the beachfront location:||||1. We requested for a single bed, they said they would do but we ended up with twin bed being pushed together at different height.||2. The breakfast was terrible, no taste, no staff on standby. They did not have most of what they wrote in the menu.||3. The hotel is dirty and old, there were crumbs came down from the ceiling everyday, the towels were filthy.||4. The shower and the toilet flush didn't work, we have informed the staff TWICE but no one ever came to check, let alone fixing it. Toilet could not handle solid waste at all. Shower was clogged.||5. No hook or rack that we could hang or put towels or clothes.||6. There was NO hot water, satellite TV, WIFI though they were all advertised as the booking package.||7. NO outlets in the entire room or bathroom, there was only one lightbulb in the center of the room.||8. The POOL WATER was GREEN and full of trash, you can't even see the bottom of the pool. Photos attached here. They never clean the pool.||All kids in the village play in the pool everyday, no privacy for the guest. We complained to the staff, he said it's local culture (really??)||9. There was no security, anyone could enter the premises at anytime.||10. We requested other room but it was even worse.||11. There was blood smears on the wall.||12. We extended 2 days since we were expecting them to fix it all as they promised but nothing. We left the hotel and found no staff at the front office for check out. We came again the next morning to check out but still no staff in front office. We left and they only realized the day after. We paid and they charged us the same price, even after all the downgraded facilities.||||There are many other hotels nearby, much cheaper and cleaner, and beachfront too. This hotel not willing to run the business and respect the guest, DO NOT stay here!

We have previously stayed here a number of times but haven't been back for the last three years. To say it was a disappointment was an understatement. Firstly it appears to have gone to ruin. The first day there were a number of menu items unavailable, no beers to purchase for the first 3 days, the pool was disgusting and had around 20-50 kids in it each day (so much for quiet times beside the pool while hubby surfed). Kids would ask for money and selfies constantly. Kids in pool not dressed or wearing swim nappies or having toilet breaks. The whole resort it open to the locals who come and go as they please - previously security ensured this did not happen. Showers were terrible with barely a trickle coming out of the shower heads and on the last day of stay no water at all. The pool lounges are falling apart and only had 2 mats so would be laying directly on wooden slats. Much better places to eat in the area. Such a shame as it usually would have been packed with a great vibe. Wont go again.

We initially booked 14 nights here (I know!) and stayed 3. The room appeared clean at first glance but was very tired. The shower did not work and our neighbours used the outdoor shower in the grounds as it was better (but cold). I struggled with the food, the whole place seemed unhygienic from the off with dogs everywhere. I was also traumatised by the bike boys who followed our taxi on the way in from about 15 mins down the road. We had no idea to start with what they wanted, we asked them to go away and they still followed us - right to our room and didn't leave! We eventually hired a bike the next day just to get them to go away (but to be honest it was nice to get away from Lakey Peak during the day). They would sit and look up at our balcony and room continuously. The resort is dated and dirty, mostly used by locals. Sunday must be bath day I think as the pool is full of all the local kids (and adults) getting washed too....It was filthy!! The strip out the front is also filthy, the whole place is rough and feels pretty unsafe too on a night. Dogs everywhere, inside restaurants too. We didn't get any refund for leaving 11 days early. The staff seemed pleasant enough but not really bothered once they have your money! We suffered with dicky tummies for the entire duration in Sumbawa which miraculously disappeared once back in Bali. Definitely not a place I'd go back to.
