I had a lovely, authentic experience at the lodge. Ahyak & his family are very kind, made me feel at home from day one. I got to see the true local life by being away from touristy areas and grew appreciation for the communities there. The volunteering itself at the restaurant was fun, with nice people that I will never forget. Hope to be back one day!

It was my first time volunteering and I felt like part of their family straight from the beginning. Everyone is so nice, kind and friendly. I learned so much about the local life, culture and religion. I also enjoyed the work in the restaurant very much. I was there during Ramadan and celebrated end of Ramadan with them and their families which was a great experience. You can walk through the village or rice fields but apart from that you need a scooter to go to different places. The accommodation is basic and there's only cold water, but the people are simply the best. Thank you so much!!

My time here was so so amazing! From the moment I arrived I felt welcomed and happy. My host family made me feel like part of their family. The other Volunteers and me were free until 4 pm, to explore Masbagik and the surrounding areas. We visited traditional hand weaving villages, Pottery, waterfalls and lots of other cool places. From 4 pm until 6pm I taught English. And I loved it so much the kids were polite, cute and so eager to learn english. The evenings are so special and fun too. Always filled with music and laughter! If you have the chance to volunteer here: Do it!! ;)

Ayla, it turns out you are versatile and extraordinary.
In addition to being enthusiastic about teaching children, Ayla is also good at singing, we really feel overwhelmed with her presence in our place.
We will definitely miss her

What a great time I had here! I stayed almost three weeks but I could have definitely stayed longer. The kids are absolutely wonderful, eager to learn, and it's just a couple of hours per day. The accommodation's good and private, food is delicious and you feel welcomed by everyone! Late night jam sessions are my favorite. From Ahyak (host) to everyone else in the village, other volunteers .. I couldn't have asked for a better volunteering experience! Don't be afraid to stay here “longer”, it's actually a great place to be to slow down and rest if you're a long time traveler.

I am very sad to see Carmen leave.
The days with her were like a part of our family, fun nights singing together while sometimes we had casual discussions.
And of course it really helps the children to learn

Mr Ahyak was the most welcoming host, and his family made me feel so welcomed during Ramadan - we fasted together, prayed in the mosque, and had home cooked meals together. You will have the chance to truly get immersed in local culture & build deep relationships. Every night, we would play the guitar & sing together - you will be a part of the family from Day 1. The students were ages 6-22, and you have full freedom in leading the session. They are all so eager to learn! I even led a yoga class to the kids - it was so special. The nature in Lombok is also incredibly stunning!

Zahabia was a woman who was very passionate about teaching and even very passionate about delving deeper into the local culture. Her cheerful smile and her free laugh will make us miss her

I can't describe in words how amazing my experience at the lodge was. The people I met there will always have my heart, I work consisted of singing and sonetimes performing at a lovely restaurant with them, do I have to sag more? The food u get there is so good (I truly recommend Resti's pancakes) ! Ahyak will show u a few of his communities and u will meet a lot of beautiful souls and learn a lot about sustainable tourism. The hole family is just lovely and I already miss every single one of them.. I'll definitely come back!

Nothing short of an amazing stay here. Didn't regret coming here for a second. Asmuni offered some supreme hospitality and mr. Ajak made sure I felt at home and came in touch with the locals. Teaching the students is a lot of fun. They're very respectful and supportive of each other. If you want to do more teaching you will get the chance to visit some local schools and the students are always happy to see some new faces. It might seem like a quiet town but there is actually a lot to do here on your free time. A lot of waterfalls, hikes and beaches nearby. Would definately recommend coming.

Teaching the children was amazing! The children truly need this, and they are so grateful and enthusiastic. I ended up in a warm family that, during my now-extended stay, truly feels like my own family. I unexpectedly ended up in the hospital, and the family didn't leave me alone for a single moment. A huge thank you to the entire family! All of you will always have a special place in my heart 🫶 Being part of this community has been a blessing. This journey has given me not only unforgettable memories but also a second home. I know I will always have a home here to return to 🫶

My 3 weeks volunteering in East Lombok were nothing short of amazing! Uncle Ahyak, Opan, and his family welcomed me as their own, and the kindness of the local community made me feel right at home. Grateful for Masjho and Ryan for kindly driving us around. Teaching English to the kids was so heartwarming & rewarding—their smiles made every moment special. Living like a local, learning the culture, and exploring Lombok's stunning nature were unforgettable. This experience will forever hold a place in my heart. Terima kasih! Until next time 💚

Great volunteering experience! It's also a good place to try volunteering for the first time. Sadly I did not reach as much as I expected but the students are so cute and eager to learn! Everyone at the homestay is so welcoming and tries to make sure you have a good time. It was such a good opportunity to get to know the culture of Lombok and I am so thankful for that. I will definitely miss the music sessions in the evening. See you soon ✨
