Lombok Paradise: OYO 91391 Mutiara Syariah 3 Awaits!

Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving HEADFIRST into Lombok Paradise: OYO 91391 Mutiara Syariah 3 Awaits! and trust me, it's a rollercoaster, not a perfectly manicured garden path. This isn't your glossy brochure review; this is the REAL DEAL, warts and all. Ready? Let's go!

First Impressions: The Good, the Bad, and the "Wait, What?"

Alright, so Lombok Paradise, eh? The name itself is a bit… optimistic, let's say. It sets a high bar. Finding it was a bit of an adventure, let me tell you! My GPS was like, “Turn right… no, wait, U-turn!… JUST KIDDING, go left, then look for a tiny sign… maybe?” So, accessibility? Kinda… maybe. You'll definitely need a solid GPS and a sense of adventure.

The exterior? Let's just say it's… functional. Not Instagram-worthy, but hey, we're here for the Lombok experience, not the curb appeal, right? The exterior corridor reminded me instantly of a classic Indonesian experience.

Checking In, and the "Syariah" Factor

Check-in was… pleasant. The staff were friendly and helpful, always a plus. Contactless check-in/out is a definite bonus in these times – I appreciate that. The "Syariah" aspect? Well, it's a thing. You'll see it in the lack of alcohol in the bar (more on that later), and I think the TVs had some, ahem, strategically curated programming. No biggie for me but good to know.

Rooms: The Kingdom of Cozy (and Sometimes, Not-So-Cozy)

Inside my room, now that was the big question mark. Remember, this is OYO, so it’s hit-or-miss, and I love the excitement of the OYO experience.

The Good Bits: The room was generally clean, and I was able to locate my amenities. Air conditioning was a lifesaver. The Wi-Fi [free] in the room was a godsend. Free bottled water? Always a win. The desk was useful for a quick email and some photos. Non-smoking rooms are always appreciated.
The "Meh" Moments: My bed was not the extra-long kind, so this was an unfortunate miss. My room had a window but no real view. The TV, the satellite/cable channels, were a bit of a mixed bag. Carpeting – sometimes a little iffy to get the dirt out, but I can imagine the upkeep.
The “Wait, What?”: The bathroom phone was a thing. Just… a thing. And the bathtub -- there was one, but I never actually used it.

Amenities and Opportunities

Things to Do: The "Things to Do" at Lombok Paradise, well, mostly the focus is on rest and relaxation. But I'd recommend going beyond the hotel by taking a taxi or a bicycle ride.
Ways to Relax: Now, this is where it gets interesting. I love the idea of the Body scrub, body wrap, massage, spa, spa/sauna options, but none of them were actually available when I stayed, which was a complete and total bummer!
Fitness Center, Gym/fitness: I'm a gym rat, so having a fitness center is important and I was happy to locate one.** Swimming pool [outdoor]:** The pool was…fine. A little small, and the "pool with a view" was more "pool with a view of… other buildings." The staff were very friendly, and there was an endless supply of towels, but I'd describe it as functional more than fantastic.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: This is where Lombok Paradise showed some serious potential! The restaurants served a mix of Asian cuisine in restaurant, and Western cuisine in restaurant. The Breakfast [buffet] was solid – decent. I loved the coffee/tea in restaurant and the bottle of water, plus it's really all you need in the morning.
Bar: The Poolside bar was closed, I think. The Happy hour was not happening, I'm certain. And there was no alcohol.
Services and Conveniences: This is where the hotel really shines. The Air conditioning in public area was a blessing, as it's always hot. The Cash withdrawal was super helpful. The Convenience store was well-stocked and a lifesaver. The Daily housekeeping – always a plus, and the staff was very friendly. The Facilities for disabled guests seem good.
Cleanliness and Safety: This is where the hotel really stepped up. Anti-viral cleaning products were clearly in use. The staff was wearing masks, and hand sanitizer was everywhere.
For the kids: I don't have kids, but this spot appears to be great for the kiddos!

The Verdict: Is Lombok Paradise Truly Paradise?

Look, Lombok Paradise: OYO 91391 Mutiara Syariah 3 Awaits! isn't the Ritz-Carlton. It's a budget-friendly option that offers a decent base for exploring Lombok. It's not perfect – there are some rough edges! - but it has a certain charm and definitely values a safe experience.

My Opinion? With some expectations adjusted, and if you're looking for a bang for your buck and you're not seeking a swanky resort experience, I'd recommend it. I will be looking to book the place again and I'd rate 7 out of 10.

OYO 91391 Mutiara Syariah 3 Lombok Indonesia

Alright, buckle up buttercups, because you're about to get the raw, unfiltered Lombok experience, courtesy of yours truly (and, let's be honest, a serious lack of planning). This ain't your perfectly curated Instagram feed. This is the real deal. Here's my "itinerary" (and I use that term very loosely) for my stay at OYO 91391 Mutiara Syariah 3 Lombok, Indonesia. Get ready for the glorious chaos.

Day 1: Arrival & Mild Panic (and a Really Good Mango)

Time: Okay, so technically the whole day is a blur. Flight's delayed, of course. Didn't expect any different.
Destination: Lombok International Airport (LOP) - Landed! Yay! Now, where the hell is the driver I booked? Oh, right. Forgot to confirm. Facepalm. Found a taxi… who proceeded to try and fleece me. Negotiated him down like a pro (or so I thought, maybe he got the better end of that deal).
Transportation: Airplane (briefly), taxi (mostly), a whole lot of walking and sweating.
Hotel: OYO 91391 Mutiara Syariah 3. Honestly? It's…basic. Clean enough, the aircon works (major win), and the staff are super friendly, even if my Bahasa Indonesia is tragically terrible. The "free breakfast" consists of toast and instant coffee. I’m surviving.
Activity: The highlight of this whole day? Finding a street vendor selling the most outrageously delicious mango I've ever tasted. Seriously. Juicy, sweet, practically melted in my mouth. Ate it so fast, I almost choked. That mango was the soul of Lombok. The rest of the day? Let's just say it involved a lot of existential pondering in the slightly-less-than-pristine bathroom.
Emotional Rollercoaster: Mild terror at navigating a new country solo. Followed by overwhelming joy at the mango. Then a slump of exhaustion and a slight fear of getting eaten by mosquitoes. The usual.

Day 2: Beach Bummin', Sunset Sizzles, and a Curry Catastrophe

Time: Woke up late. Sun's already baking the place. Don't judge me.
Destination: Kuta Beach (not the Bali Kuta. This is the real deal, supposedly).
Transportation: A rickety scooter I rented (and immediately regretted). Driving on the left side of the road is harder than it looks, people. I have a newfound respect for Indonesian drivers.
Activity 1: Kuta Beach Let's just say Kuta Beach is stunning – turquoise water, gorgeous sand. HOWEVER! The hawkers are relentless. "Hey mister, you want surfboard? You want massage? You want… everything?" I politely declined approximately 87 offers. Did I enjoy it anyway? Absolutely. The sun, the sand, the view - pure bliss. Did I get a sunburn? Oh, you betcha.
Activity 2: Sunset at a random spot along the coast. Found a place to park, and got the MOST AMAZING sunset view. I took like a million pictures.
Activity 3: Dinner. The Curry Disaster: I decided to be adventurous. I found a local warung (small family-owned restaurant) and ordered a chicken curry. Sounded good, right? WRONG. First bite? Delicious. Second bite? Fine. Third Bite? Uh oh. Fourth Bite? My stomach started protesting. Fifth Bite? I was officially in trouble. Let's just say I spent the next few hours acquainted with the… ahem… facilities. Lesson learned: stick to something simple when you're pushing your culinary boundaries.
Emotional Rollercoaster: Joy! (Kuta Beach). Annoyance (Hawkers). A bit of "Oh, this is nice." (Watching the sun). And then…pure, unadulterated regret (Curry). And the fear that I contracted a new kind of gastro-intestinal organism.

Day 3: Trying to be Cultural (and Failing Glamorously)

Time: Woke up feeling better, but definitely nursing a bit of a… rumble.
Destination: A local craft market (trying to be authentic, I swear!)
Transportation: Scooter, again. Still terrified.
Activity 1: Craft Market: So, the market was… interesting. Lots of handicrafts, batik fabrics, and an overwhelming number of things I almost bought. I actually DID buy a hand-painted wooden gecko. I'm not sure WHY, but I felt compelled. Now, where the heck am I going to put it?
Activity 2: Temple Visit – Pura Lingsar Decided to channel my inner explorer. Was going to go inside! Well, I wore the wrong clothes. So, I couldn't enter. Oops. Admired the outside for a while. It was beautiful and I felt the weight of respecting the culture.
Activity 3: "Authentic Lunch" Gone Slightly Wrong: Found a small warung that claimed to serve "traditional Lombok cuisine." Ordered something I couldn't pronounce and crossed my fingers. Well…. let's just say it involved a lot of chili, a lot of sweat, and a desperate search for water. Again, the food here is a mixed bag. It is always an adventure!
Emotional Rollercoaster: Initial enthusiasm for the market, followed by a pang of "What am I actually doing with my life?" Buying the gecko brought a brief moment of pure happiness. The temple brought a feeling of serenity… until I realized my clothing faux pas. Then, the lunch. Back to the stomach grumbles again. It's a rollercoaster, alright.

Day 4: Waterfalls & Wobbly Legs & Wasted Days

Time: Getting the hang of the slow wake-up call.
Destination: Tiu Kelep Waterfall
Transportation: Scooter (at my own peril) and then a bit of walking
Activity 1: Hike to Tiu Kelep. The Waterfall! Wow. Just WOW. This place is amazing! The hike wasn't too bad, but I was sweating buckets. And the reward - the waterfall itself. It's powerful, breathtaking, and genuinely magical. Spending a good chunk of time there - letting the water wash away life's troubles.
Activity 2: Hmmm. What to do?! After the waterfall, I was exhausted. The heat was intense, and I had no plans. So I went back to the hotel. Read a book. Took a nap. Ordered some fruit and basically just laid in my bed for most of the day. Sometimes you just need a day to do nothing. Especially after the previous days.
Activity 3: More Mangoes! Yes, I went back to the same street vendor for a mango. Don't judge. It's the anchor of my Lombok experience.
Emotional Rollercoaster: Pure, unadulterated joy at the waterfall. A deep sense of peace and a quiet joy at the fact that this day could be simply "nothing." Pure calm. And the mango? Well, the mango is always just pure bliss.

Day 5: The Departure That Didn't Actually Happen.

Time: Early (supposedly)
Destination: Lombok International Airport (again).
Transportation: Taxi (this time, I’m pre-booking and demanding a decent price).
Activity: Getting on the plane.
Emotional Rollercoaster: Excitement, mixed with a lot of sadness.

The Imperfections, The Ramble, The Honesty:

So, that's it. My Lombok adventure. Did I perfectly plan it? No, absolutely not. Did I stick to a strict itinerary? Haha, no. As you can see, I’ve spent a lot of time eating, sweating, riding a scooter, and questioning my life choices. I got lost, I got sunburned, I ate something that tried to kill me (metaphorically, at least). But here's the thing… it was amazing. The people are incredibly kind, the scenery is stunning, and even the curry catastrophe was (eventually) a good story.

Lombok is a place that gets under your skin. It's messy, imperfect, chaotic, and beautiful. And that, my friends, is why I’ll definitely be back. And yes, I'll be bringing a suitcase filled with mangoes.

Now, back to that gecko… where to put it?

Lombok Paradise: OYO 91391 Mutiara Syariah 3 Awaits! - FAQs (The Real Deal)

So, like, what is "Mutiara Syariah 3" anyway? And does "Syariah" mean... you know...

Okay, buckle up, because this is where things get… *interesting*. "Mutiara Syariah 3" is, ostensibly, a hotel in Lombok. And yes, "Syariah" generally implies adherence to Islamic principles. Think: modest attire, no alcohol on the premises (or at least, *very* discreetly hidden), and prayer times announced. I went in expecting a tranquil, maybe even a *bit* stuffy, experience. Spoiler alert: it was... an experience.

One evening, *after* a particularly hectic day of trying to navigate the Lombok traffic (more on that later – it's a *journey*), I was desperate for a beer, and had forgotten about the rules. I was *so* thirsty. Let's just say I learned a valuable lesson about reading the fine print *before* arriving.

Is the location any good? (Is it actually "Paradise"?)

Alright, here's the truth bomb: "Paradise" is a stretch. It depends on your definition of paradise. It's not right on the beach, more like a short (sweaty) walk away. The immediate surroundings? Let's call them... *rustic*. Think local life, which means the occasional rooster doing his morning concert at 4 AM (bring earplugs, seriously).

One time, I was trying to grab a scooter to get to the beach, and just as I was about to step into it, a chicken strutted right in front of me! It was both hilarious and frustrating, because I was already running late. But hey, it's Lombok, right? You learn to embrace the chaos.

What's the room like? Clean? Comfy? Instagrammable?

Okay, look, let's be real. *Instagrammable*? Probably not. But clean-ish and comfy-ish? Yeah, mostly. Remember, you're paying for a budget-friendly stay. The rooms were generally okay. The air conditioning worked (a godsend in Lombok's heat and humidity). The bed... well, it was a bed. Nothing fancy, but it got the job done.

I remember one occasion, during my first stay, I was expecting luxury. But the moment I walked in, a cockroach greeted me. I swear, it was as big my thumb! I screamed - full-on, embarrassing scream. The staff was quick to help, though, and it never happened again. So, consider this your heads up - bring some bug spray! It's just a fact of life in the tropics. But that initial experience almost turned me off completely. I quickly cooled off though.

The food, though. Is there food? And is it any good?

Breakfast is included. Don't get your hopes up for a Michelin-star experience. It's usually basic: toast, maybe some fruit (if you're lucky, and mangoes in season are an absolute dream), and a fried egg. The coffee? Well, let's just say it's strong.

I particularly recall one morning, I arrived early and was *starving.* My scrambled eggs were cold, the juice was watered down, and the toast tasted stale. My mood sank faster than a stone in the ocean. But then I saw an old lady handing out fresh fruit. It was a local vendor. The mango was heavenly! I'd almost forgotten how good fruit could be. My whole outlook improved in an instant. So, the food *outside* the hotel is usually amazing. Explore the local warungs (small restaurants). You won't regret it.

Is the staff friendly?

The staff! Oh, the staff. They're generally trying their best. The language barrier can be a bit of a hurdle sometimes. But they're genuinely friendly—smiles abound. They're often very young, maybe just starting out in the hospitality world.

One time, I needed help getting a taxi to the airport (again, the Lombok traffic… a saga!). I was frantic! The staff member, Bless her heart, got on the phone and didn't give up until the scooter guy was found. It was a long wait, but they were genuinely helpful. Their English might not be perfect, But their helpfulness more than made up for it. My flight was saved!

Are there any other things to look out for? Like, hidden costs, or… bugs?

Oh, yeah. Bugs. Definitely bugs. See my earlier cockroach anecdote. Bring bug spray. And maybe some earplugs too, for the aforementioned rooster. And mosquitoes. Lots of mosquitoes.

Regarding hidden costs... well, it's a budget hotel. Be prepared to pay for bottled water. It's essential in Lombok, and the tap water is definitely not safe to drink. Look, always check the fine print, and don't be shy about asking questions. Better to clear up any confusion *before* you're knee-deep in paradise, right? It's a good place to start, and you can branch out from there.

Should I stay at Mutiara Syariah 3? Would you recommend it?

Okay, the big question. Would I recommend it? Look, it depends. If you're expecting five-star luxury, a perfectly curated experience, and zero insect encounters, then *absolutely not*. If you're on a budget, looking for a convenient base for exploring Lombok, and willing to embrace a bit of… *character*, then yeah, it's worth considering.

For me? The biggest draw was the people. I had such lovely interactions with some of the staff. Sure, it wasn't perfect. There were moments of frustration, lots of sweatiness, and a few questionable breakfast choices. But overall, it was a memorable experience. It was a real slice of Lombok life. And for that, I wouldn't trade it for anything. Honestly, I wouldn't necessarily *choose* it again, but if I did, I'd arrive armed with bug spray, earplugs, and a good sense of humor. And probably some emergency snacks. Because you never know when you're going to need a mango.
