Open-Fire Dining Experience at Lombok Private Villa Estate

The Story Behind The Estate OFYR® Grill

Nestled within the tranquil surroundings of Lombok Private Villa Estate, I envisioned The Estate OFYR® Grill as more than simply a dining venue – but rather as a place where fire, flavour, and meaningful connection come together beneath the Lombok evening sky. Inspired by the elemental beauty of open-fire cooking and fueled by locally sourced Lombok coconut charcoal, each dinner experience is designed to feel intimate, warm, and deeply sensory.

While many of our guests treasure the privacy of personalised in-villa dining prepared by our private chefs, I also love inviting them to gather around the OFYR® Grill for a different kind of culinary moment. Together with Chef Jiwa and our passionate culinary team, we have created bespoke Chef’s Table Grill Dinner experiences that celebrate simplicity, craftsmanship, and the joy of sharing exceptional food. As both breakfast and dinner are included with every stay, guests are free to alternate effortlessly between the comfort of their villa and the atmospheric experience of open-fire dining throughout their time at Lombok Private Villa Estate.

To maintain the exclusive and serene atmosphere of The Estate, The OFYR Grill Restaurant at Lombok Private Villa Estate is reserved exclusively for villa residents and guests staying at at The Lombok Lodge Boutique Hotel.

Gathered Around Fire & Flavour

At The Estate, dining has never been solely about the food itself, but rather about the atmosphere created around it. The OFYR® Grill invites guests to slow down, gather together, and experience the simple pleasure of open-fire cooking in an intimate beachfront setting. Beneath swaying palms and soft evening skies, each dinner unfolds at an unhurried pace – warm, relaxed, and deeply personal.

Chef Jiwa and his culinary team thoughtfully curate a variety of Chef’s Table Grill experiences inspired by both international comfort classics and the rich flavours of Indonesian cuisine. Italian favourites, vibrant seafood dishes, delicate vegetarian creations, and carefully prepared halal options are all crafted with the same attention to detail and sense of occasion.

To preserve the peaceful and intimate atmosphere of Lombok Private Villa Estate, The Estate OFYR® Grill remains reserved exclusively for villa residents and selected guests staying at The Lombok Lodge Boutique Hotel.

The Comfort of Private Villa Dining

Many guests treasure life’s quieter moments most – enjoying breakfast beside the pool, sharing a leisurely lunch beneath the shaded terrace, or savouring a beautifully prepared dinner in complete villa privacy.

Our culinary philosophy at Lombok Private Villa Estate centers around fresh, nourishing Farm-to-Table cuisine thoughtfully prepared by our private chefs using locally sourced ingredients and produce from our organic gardens wherever possible. The menus evolve naturally with the seasons and the island itself, blending Indonesian inspiration with lighter contemporary flavours designed for tropical island living.

From sunrise breakfasts to candlelit dinners, every meal is intended to feel effortless, personal, and quietly indulgent. Sneak peek This Week’s In-villa Menu for a taste of what we offer!

Open-Fire Evenings Beneath The Lombok Sky

As daylight slowly fades across the coastline, the OFYR® Grill becomes the glowing heart of the estate. Flames flicker against the evening air while the aromas of coconut charcoal, freshly grilled seafood, Wagyu beef, garden vegetables, and aromatic herbs drift gently through the open-air restaurant.

There is something wonderfully elemental about cooking over fire – a return to simplicity, craftsmanship, and authentic flavour. It is precisely this atmosphere that inspired me to introduce the OFYR® Grill experience at Lombok Private Villa Estate. Explore our full OFYR® Grill Menu and treat your taste buds to something extraordinary.

Each Chef’s Table Grill Dinner is carefully designed to feel immersive yet unpretentious, elegant yet relaxed. A dining experience that reflects the natural rhythm and understated luxury of Lombok itself.

Toes In The Sand, Beneath The Stars

Among the most cherished moments at Lombok Private Villa Estate are often the simplest ones. Our private “Toes-in-the-Sand” dining experience invites guests to enjoy a candlelit dinner directly on the beach. With the gentle sound of the sea accompanying the evening.

Barefoot beneath the stars, surrounded by flickering candlelight and the stillness of the Lombok coastline. These dinners capture the essence of island romance in its purest form. For many couples, it becomes one of the defining memories of their stay.
