"Cocotinos Sekotong will welcome our first guests (Soft-Opening) from 1st August 2010. Please bear with us as we continue to develop our website. In the mean time, if you require more information, please do not hesitate to email us" - Cocotinos Sekotong :: 05 June 2010

Cocotinos Sekotong is located at Sekotong Bay, on the south-west side of Lombok Island. Guests arrive at the Seleparang Airport in Mataram and a 1-hour drive will bring them through busy but well-swept towns, lush green rice fields and verdant forests; the final part of the journey follows a winding coastline from the picturesque Lembar Harbour to a secluded beach at Tanjung Empat. We have chosen this site because of its accessibility - the roads are paved and in good condition all the way from the airport - availability of electrical power and good telecommunication links. Furthermore the resort site faces three coconut-fringed white-sand islands, namely, Gili Nanggu, Gili Tangkung and Gili Sudat. Fronting the resort is over 300 metres of white sand beach, part of which is within a private cove. While the northern Gilis (Trawanga, Menoa and Air) are well known and developed, the 3 islands in the south-west are still unspoilt and idyllic tropical islands. Gili Nanggu which faces the resort directly is already reputed as one of the best snorkelling islands in the world by Silkwind magazine. Apart from the 3 Islands directly facing the resort, there are 10 other islands within an easy boat ride.

Cocotinos Sekotong is designed along similar principles to our first Cocotinos resort in Manado; but it will be grander and more luxurious while still maintaining that cosy and personalised atmosphere, which is now the signature of our Cocotinos brand. While our Manado resort is primarily focused on scuba diving (Manado being known by now as a diving haven), Cocotinos Sekotong will provide diving and much more. The white-sand beaches and the turquoise waters facing the resort and surrounding the nearby islands make the location ideal for romantic getaways and various kinds of water sports. Presently, there is only one dive operator in the Sekotong area and no other any major resort. Cocotinos Sekotong will be the first of its kind to offer guests the opportunity to enjoy and explore this beautiful and enchanting part of Lombok in luxury. South Lombok is also well known as an exciting world class surfing destination.

A new international Airport is currently being constructed at Praya in the centre of Lombok island and is scheduled to open in late 2010. In conjunction with the new international airport, a new ring road system will connect the new airport to Sekotong and Senggigi.
