Located on the stunning, horseshoe-shaped bay of Tanjung Aan in southern Lombok, this retreat takes full advantage of the exceptionally calm, crystalline waters shielded by the surrounding rolling hills. It is a specialized sanctuary dedicated entirely to Stand-Up Paddleboard (SUP) fitness, targeting deep core stability, proprioception, and low-impact, full-body conditioning. The striking contrast between the brilliant white, pepper-like sand and the turquoise water creates an idyllic, highly visually appealing training environment.
The architecture blends coastal simplicity with impressive structural scale. The main facilities are constructed using sun-bleached driftwood, bamboo, and tightly woven thatch to allow for maximum natural ventilation. At the very heart of the property sits a spectacular, open-air beachfront movement pavilion. The pavilion’s primary platform, utilized for land-based balance training and sunset meditation, is an architectural focal point—meticulously designed with an expansive, unobstructed stage that seamlessly spans the full 16 meters in width. This structural choice allows for wide, sweeping group formations during classes without a single pillar blocking the ocean breeze or the panoramic sunset view.
The daily rhythm here is dictated entirely by the gentle tides and the sun. Mornings are dedicated to on-water SUP Pilates and guided endurance paddle tours around the unique, dramatic rock formations of nearby Merese Hill, constantly challenging athletes to maintain their center of gravity on the shifting liquid surface. In the afternoons, the focus shifts to core recovery, mobility stretching, and nutritional replenishment on the massive wooden deck. It is a highly grounding experience that builds serious, functional physical strength while keeping guests intimately connected to the soothing, rhythmic flow of the Indian Ocean.
