- Gary Moran

Good times had by all...

"Awesome resort with good surf out the front. Our surf guide Andrew was a legend and he made sure we were always happy and got good waves. The food was another highlight, we were never left hungry. Can't wait to go back, highly recommend it..."

- Paul Mcnamara

Great Experience

"Just got back from Sumbawa trip, once again thanks for your help with regards to my accommodation , which was very nice. I found some waves a bit too challenging for my age and riding a longboard. I look forward to hearing back from you so I can start to organise my next surfing adventure! "

- Steve Riley

Uwe Morzinek

"Loved the place. Seemed a little pricey compared to others, but you get what you pay for. The organisation for our surfing was great. You have this amazing up stairs section with great views, but because the tiles aren't mopped to remove the sea dew you can't walk on it because it is so slippery. Tidy that up and I'm sure it would enhance the place.

Breakfast variations would also be good, was the same every day, but overall really enjoyed our stay. My suggestions should be read on how you could improve on a great resort.

Fantastic Place To Stay

"Nomad Tropical Surf Resort was a fantastic place to stay for a group of friends getting away on a surfing holiday. The location was great, having a fun wave to surf directly out the front and other more challenging waves only a short drive a way. All of the staff were very friendly & helpful. The rooms were very comfortable & clean. The food in the restaurant was amazing, no one left hungry. The only confusion was around juices not being include in our pre paid package. On the menu it says that Juices are unlimited, but at the end of the trip we were charged for them (and we drank a lot of them because they were soooo good). Minor issue & I am sure it will be easy to fix the wording on the menu. All in all a fantastic holiday & cant wait to go back to Nomad Tropical Resort."

- Ben Koontz

Don’t hesitate

"This place is super rad. Huge rooms and always spotless, seriously impressive chefs working day and night, but most of all, a great selection of waves nearby. Absolutely recommended. Certainly not the cheapest option in Sumbawa but if you’re looking for a bit of a splash, this is the spot. Awesome staff too. Cheers dudes "

- Ben Keys

Paul Meara

"Great staff & comfortable air conditioned accommodation, yummy food, cool surf guide, great set up. Swell didn’t pump so a couple of performance breaks weren’t working but still some convenient options out the front at tropicals & 10minutes away at yo yos. Only thing missing was a surf photographer, but it is the off season"

- Paul Meara

Ross

"Had a great time at Nomads in Sumbawa with my two sons. Staff couldn't have been more helpful especially the surf guides. Food was great and plenty of it. The downside didn't get the waves we were chasing although we surfed every day. The resort is getting a bit run down"

- Mr Ross Allen

Dream Surf Vacation

"Everything is end to end taken care of for you so all you have to do is show up and enjoy your dream surf vacation. Everyone is really wonderful and you'll have the time of your life."

- Joseph Tully

JUST AWESOME

"Well my wife and I have just spent a week at Nomad Tropical Resort West Sumbawa and we can not praise it enough. I went for the surfing and relaxing and my wife for the relaxing. As a surf location it has about everything I could ask for with an easy short paddle through the break in the reef to a nice reliable left hander. A short drive over the hill is also Yo yo's and Super Sucks which offer bigger barrel type waves and the resort is only too happy to drive you there. A further drive and you get to Scar Reef. The resort itself is beautiful and is lovely and clean. There is a great big swimming pool and lots of different areas for sunbathing or sitting in the shade either around the pool area or watching the ocean and surf with a Bintang or two. The meals are absolutely fantastic and more than we could eat with a great selection of European and local dishes beautifully presented. Mike the manager and Andrew the surf guide / project manager certainly made us feel right at home and by the time we left we felt like old friends. The one aspect that made the whole experience unforgettable were the staff, they are the best group of people that you could ask for to care for your needs. Nothing was too much trouble and they always had those great big beautiful smiles, they even helped me learn a bit if Basa Indonesia, and by the time we left we felt like we were part of a big happy family. Our only regret is that we only stayed for one week but we will be going back and for two weeks. This resort is a fantastic holiday destination for surfers and non surfers alike and is ideal for families as well, massages, snorkelling gear, fishing gear and boat rides all available."

- Martin Clifford Clarke

Ideal

"This was my second stay at Nomad's and I can only say positive things about my time there. The location is perfect, good choice of breaks for all the swell conditions. The staff are really friendly and make the stay everything you could ask.

Definitely somewhere I will come back. "

Review of Tropicals

"Beautiful setting. Surf at Tropicals was big and messy while we were there so we had to drive to more suitable locations on 5 of the 6 days we were there. But thats how it goes I guess. Food was great. The bedrooms could use better interior lighting at night. Very friendly staff. Beautiful and clean pool. "

- Stephen Bryce Kinnear

Great time at Tropical

"We had a great time at Tropical, so much so that we extended our stay!
The location is perfect and has several other surf spots within short driving distance.
The Staff is absolutely WONDERFUL we felt truely taken care of and nothing was ever to trouble for them. Restaurant Staff, Surf Guides, Housekeeping, Manager and many others did a great job at helping us enjoy a perfect holiday in Sumbawa.
The accommodation is a bit dated but were told renovation plans are under way.
We look forward to returning to Tropical."

July 2017 Surfing Getaway

"we had a fantastic stay at Nomads. The staff were great as was the food and the surf guide Andrew. It would have been nice to have some soft music when having a massage. We helped to clean up the beach in front of the Resort and that really should be done each morning to highlight the pristine environment. There didn't seem to be any pool towels. It would be a good idea to put the blow up pool toys away each evening so they don't look and feel so perished. It would have been lovely to do yoga in the morning or evening something for wives & kids. Other things for wives & kids cooking classes, pool volleyball or water polo goals, movie nights. Despite my suggestions had a wonderful stay with great people and areal escape from the busy life anywhere other than Sumbawa. Thank you again Sue & John Magarey"

Dee Blackburn

"Had a fantastic week at Nomad Tropical resort. The location is stunning and the surf was amazing. All of the staff were friendly and made you feel welcome, with a special thanks going out to Yas our driver & Ziggy who put in the extra time & effort in with our kids. The only down side was the litter on the beach, but we were informed things were in place to rectify this. All in all an amazing resort in an untouched part of Indonesia, will definitely be returning for another stay as soon as I can !!! Thanks again"

Relaxing Break

"Great Place for a relaxing break. Lots of wave options for all levels. Resort is clean and peaceful..."

- Brent Enticott

The best private surfing experience

"We were pleased with hidden location in Sumbawa Island, with beautiful view and very nice Tropical rigrt and left waves in front of hotel area. There was great service, delicious food and hand made snacks. Every evening we enjoyed with spectacular sunsets. So, it was really outstanding surf holiday experience. We had some questions about prepaid surf guiding (that means car with driver to surf outside camp) we prepaid this service, but didn't usr it because conditions were exelent in front of the hotel, but management was very friendly and we settled this question very fast, big thanks to Nomad Surfers family. We will continue to travel with Nomad Surfers."

- Natalia Grudinina

Unreal

"It's pretty hard to believe that resort exists in West Sumbawa. If you want to surf good waves and you like to be comfortable don't blow it and stay anywhere else. The food and resort is second to none. And with such a consistent wave out front of the resort you're able to do a surf check practically from your bed. There's also so many waves in the area it's an amazing place to be. The guides work so hard as well to put you in good waves and keep you comfortable. Even though it can take some time to get there, Nomad's system is the best. So don't stay anywhere else because I'm sure you'll be back eating at the restaurant wondering why you didn't in the first place. Thanks Tom Carey Head of Global Photography Volcom Inc. "

Awesome Time!

"Hi jose, we really had an awesome time in nomads resort!! Our guide was Andrew and he really made our stay there great! He was a very good guide and showed us all the nice places and things that Sumbawa has to offer!! And all the other staff were great too! We will definitely come back in the future! Regards, Peter"

Amazing!

"Amazing trip all round. Everyone was lovely! "

Jeff and Chris Eliis at Tropicals

"Great holiday with outstanding waves. Tropicals is a beautiful and quiet resort where the staff are all very friendly. The surf guides could not be more helpful and the great party atmosphere was perfect for my 12 yr old son and I. We had some big swells for the first few days and when it got smaller, Tropicals was breaking with a near perfect tubular wave. Remember, you are in Sambawa and not a first world environment. My suggestion is to take things as they come and keep a smile on your face. We had some troubles getting back to Lombok due to a boat break down but Mike the manager made sure we got back to Bali safely. The business class upgrade made it so much nicer. We will definitely be back and look forward to catching some more tubes. I would highly recommend a father/son trip as the waves at Super Suck and Tropicals are great for kids. (As long as they can manage 4 to 6 foot waves) Thanks again to the team at Tropicals."

- Jeffrey Cyril ELLIS

Best surf trip of my life

"Dificult to describe with words. First of all the people of nomad resort, surf guides Mike(manager), Andrew, Adi, great surfers and take me to the best spots on the right time, all the time taking care of me. The place out standing, the food great, the room exelent, and the wave in front of the resort very beautiful. Sessions of my life in supersucks and scar reef!!! I travel alone, but meet beautiful people Hedaki from Japan best vibe, Col, Nick great surfers. All the people that work in the restaurant, Thank you!!!! Andrew see you in Punta de Este!!!!"

Fantastic trip

"Hi Jose, Fantastic trip had by all of us! Nomads staff were ALL wonderful and highly accommodating, making our trip special. We had waves everyday and the food was exceptional. Hopefully we can get back there in the coming years. I appreciate your help. Cheers. Paul"

- Paul Schneider (Gold Coast)

a real highlight was surfing with my three sons & good friends at Tropicals without excessive crowds

"Hi Jose, I would like to let you know that my family & I had an excellent time in Sumbawa staying at the Nomad Tropical Resort. It was the highlight of our three week holiday in Indonesia. The laid back & relaxing atmosphere at the Resort was just what’s required for a holiday. The all inclusive package for accommodation, meals, resort facilities & surf guides was excellent. Unlike some other places you may stay where you feel you are always reaching for your wallet. The Tropical team were excellent hosts to the entire family from Danny White’s three year old daughter, to the elders of the group, Danny, Janelle, Tracey & I, in our forties. I would also like to highlight the top job completed by our main hosts Guy & Indra. Their interaction with everyone and willingness to tailor the Sumbawa experience to meet individuals needs was first class. To maintain the resorts personal and relaxing feeling, which will attract repeat customers, I recommend that the Tropicals surf break continue to maintain a low profile. If it were to get more crowded like Yo Yos & Super Suck the experience would not be so special. For example, a real highlight was surfing with my three sons & good friends at Tropicals without excessive crowds souring the experience. Please pass my thanks & regards onto the entire Nomad Tropical team. Best regard"

- Andrew Penkethman

The local knowledge and attention to the guests requests were second to none.

"Jose, A quick note to let you know that we had an awesome time in Sumbawa while we were there in September. The resort was comfortable, the food was great and the staff were fantastic. With respect to the reason for our trip, the surf, I’ve got to make a particular mention of Anthony, the guide. He’s a real asset for you. We were taken to all of the great surf spots at exactly the right times to get optimum tides, wind & sweet sweet waves. The local knowledge and attention to the guests requests were second to none. We’ll be back for sure! "

- Jeff Burns

Unlikely to return to the Novatel as we have now found better!

"Dear Anthony and Jose, We just arrived home after the best holiday we have had in Indonesia. I wanted to drop you an email and thank you for providing my wife and I with such beautiful, friendly, happy experience at your resort. We often stay at the Novatel in Lombok and had always loved it however after experiencing the Nomad Tropical resort we are unlikely to return to the Novatel as we have now found better! Just wanted to mention a couple of outstanding experiences at the resort; The Chefs, we did not meet them but the food was exquisite! We had ample and it was always great, we loved the simplicity of the set menus. The ever friendly, kind, patient, nothing was too difficult, Bar Staff, especially, Lina, Diana and Eka. Ali in the Gym for his help with my sore back. Adi for his surfing humour and driving us around. The cleaners who kept our room beautifully. Especially a huge thanks to Anthony for always checking to see if I could fit in one more surf, somewhere, providing fantastic information on surf locations and conditions, good humour and making us go on the "Hash Run" which was eye opening. Making sure we were happy, looked after, and that we had the best holiday ever..... and we did. Thanks Anthony we will be back soon. It was great to meet you Jose, thanks again. With kind regards,"

- Aaron and Nina Potter

Great!

"Hello Jose! I should also have mentioned in my recent email how efficient your kitchen staff were throughout our stay. Food was served in good time, fresh, and always presented professionally on the plate. Such an important part of the resort experience (apart from cold beers!) and they were spot on on every day! Regards,"

- Andrew Longhill

Katrina and I had a fabulous time at Nomads!

"Thanking you Jose! That plan is appreciated. Katrina and I had a fabulous time at Nomads! Special thanks must go to Matt and Jimi for their daily pro active, nothing ever a problem attitude to organising daily activities and rides to the surf. Whilst I saw little of Anthony (due to his rostered days off), when he was about he was particularly good at directing and managing the resort troops on a daily basis. Further, all Indonesian staff were fantastic! The girls over the bar were friendly and efficient at all times! Room cleaning and clothes washing was thorough which was really appreciated! Look after those people Jose, they present a great image for your business by doing a good job. Kind Regards,"

- Katrina McKinley

"Nomad is without doubt the best surf resort I have ever stayed at. The waves and food were insane and crowds not an issue."

- Matt Hoy (Australian Pro surfer)

Loved it here!

"Nomad Tropical Resort was beautiful! Remotely situated in Sumbawa, right on the beach with a great lefthander reef right out the front with ripable sections all the way to the channel. Classy accomodation, all meals catered for and plenty of bintangs to be had! Other activities included snokeling and speer fishing on the reef out the front, pool and bar setup, climbing the giant mountain beside the resort or just chillin’ watching the waves under the bungalows! Loved it here! No crowds and great place to surf and relax, friendly staff looking after their guests! It was a hard place to leave! I will be going back for sure!"

- Tom Cloke

Thank you

"to all the wonderful staff of nomads. thankyou all for taking care of us. we will always remeber this beautiful place, beautiful food and most of all the beautiful people and smiles."

- char and pete

"The Nomad Tropical Hotel is one of the best resorts I’ve been to. It’s mellow fun and you can surf all day.. You have the left out front, Yoyos down the road and Super Sucks close by… If you want to have a fun uncrowded surf trip with a variety of waves this is the place to go!"

- John John Florence (3X World Champion)

"The place is rad, Air sections and Tacos!!! "
