Guest score

Luxury Collection beach resort on Lombok's northwest Sira coast facing the Gili islands, with a 70-metre oceanfront pool, private-pool villas, and three restaurants.

Last updated August 6, 2026

The Sira, a Luxury Collection Resort and Spa, is Marriott's first luxury property on Lombok, opened in November 2024 along a secluded stretch of white-sand beach at Sira on the island's northwest coast, directly facing the Gili islands. Reviewers consistently praise the dramatic 70-metre oceanfront pool that appears to merge with the sea, the spacious ocean-view suites and private-pool villas, and interiors that weave in local craft such as carved teak, handwoven textiles and Sasak-inspired touches. Independent write-ups from Tatler Asia, DestinAsian and travel bloggers highlight warm, personable service (welcome ceremonies, cold towels, handwritten notes), a strong three-restaurant dining lineup spanning Indonesian, Mediterranean and Asian menus, and a well-regarded breakfast. Wellness and experiences also stand out, from Sasak healing spa rituals to a turtle-conservation beach and immersive cultural activities, while Bonvoy elites report generous treatment with suite upgrades, breakfast and late checkout. The honest watch-outs are those of a very new resort: several early reviewers noted service still finding its rhythm (slow food delivery, occasional operational gaps), some facilities opening in phases, and a remote location roughly 1.5 to 2 hours from Lombok International Airport that makes it a destination in itself rather than a quick stopover. Cash rates skew high, though points redemptions are seen as strong value. Overall it reads as a promising, design-led beach retreat with genuine sense of place, best suited to travellers seeking seclusion over nightlife or convenience.

Frequently asked questions

Where is The Sira located and how far is the airport?

The resort sits at Sira on Lombok's northwest coast, in the Sigar Penjalin and Tanjung area, on a white-sand beach facing the Gili islands. Lombok International Airport lies to the south, roughly 65 kilometres or about a 1.5-to-2-hour drive, so most guests arrange a resort transfer in advance.

When did The Sira open and is it a good Marriott Bonvoy redemption?

The Sira opened in November 2024 as a Luxury Collection resort. Guests report strong Bonvoy value, with award nights often around 27,000 to 29,000 points plus the fifth-night-free benefit, and elite members receiving suite upgrades, breakfast and late checkout, making points stays especially attractive against the higher cash rates.

What are the standout features and dining options?

Highlights include the 70-metre oceanfront pool, a Sasak-inspired spa, a turtle-conservation beach and cultural experiences. Dining spans three restaurants: Island's Table for all-day fare, Medsa for Mediterranean and Sija for Asian cuisine, alongside a breakfast that independent reviewers repeatedly single out as one of the resort's clear strengths.
