Set in the tropical forest of Bali's remote west coast, Lost Lindenberg is a recently opened hotel and surf retreat. The first international site from Franfkurt-based boutique hoteliers Lindenberg, the intimate property features eight treehouse-style guest rooms plus a pool, a spa, a plant-based restaurant, a black sand beach steps away, and surf lessons included in your booking. Unique in design and concept, the Earthy "guest collective" is designed to serve as an antidote to the more urban, bougie developments peppered throughout the Indonesian island, and a gateway to the coastline's less-crowded waves.
Inspired by the hotel's jungle setting, architect Alexis Dornier of treehouse start-up Stilt Studios and Bali-based interior designer Studio Jencquel imbued the lodgings and landscape with an air of mysticism—a winding path leads to the reception desk, elevated walkways between the cabanas literally lift guests into a different world, shaded corners create feelings of cozy nostalgia, and benches and fountains sit hidden in the gardens.
