The Experience
We’re a local family in Tetebatu with a homestay surrounded by rice fields and views of Mount Rinjani. We’re building a farm from scratch — growing chili, cacao, coffee, and more! Help us in the garden, share meals with us, and enjoy hikes to waterfalls, monkey forests, and peaceful rice walks. You’ll experience real Sasak hospitality, learn about farming, and live close to nature in one of Lombok’s most beautiful region.

The host the farm and his family are very welcomed. People from the village are also nice! The room is private, it was clean and tidy. You can see beautiful Rinjani mountain view from the dining area. the farm's wife cooks amazing Indonesian meals every day! The job is really easy, I did harvest the chilies, remove the grass and make tidy the farm. Most of the days were around 2hrs volunteering in the morning. Plenty of time you have so you can explore around the village! Thank you for great experience in Tetebatu :)

I really enjoyed my stay in Tetebatu with the farm and its family. The work is quite simple and was between 2-3h per day. I got to learn about onions and Chili plantations while staying in a homestay surrounded by beautiful rice fields in a calm village. I also enjoyed playing with the kids ! About the accommodation, a private room and bathroom and 3 delicious meals prepared by the farm's wife. I could also borrow a motorbike to go around sometimes. I would definitely recommend if you want a relaxed experience in a beautiful village 🌾

Excelente! Muy buena experiencia para aprender de la cultura local y sus tradiciones. Hermosa vida en la villa de tetebatu, gente muy amable siempre invitan a pasar a sus casas y puedes conectar realmente con las personas locales. El trabajo es muy tranquilo y entretenido. Se aprende mucho sobre distintos vegetales, como cuidarlos y cosecharlos. Trabajamos tambien en el sistema de riego con canales de agua aprovechando la lluvia y la gravedad. Recomiendo 100% si quieres una experiencia tranquila, y aprender sobre el estilo de vida en lombok indonesia. la casa y su familia son muy buenas persona
