ChickenHostel
Stay free range · Kuta Lombok
A social hostel in Kuta Lombok for solo travellers, backpackers and crews of friends. A pool, a bar, a garden, and good people to go and find the island with.
Welcome to the coop
Not here to sit still.
Chicken Hostel is a simple, social, easy-on-the-wallet base in Kuta, the surf town of south Lombok. You show up solo and leave with a plan: beaches, waves, sunsets and people from everywhere.
Our team helps you sort out trips around the island.

The hostel
Free range, never caged
In Lombok the roosters run the show: they crow at sunrise and cross the road whenever they like. We like that attitude. Chicken Hostel is for people who travel at their own pace, wake up early for a wave and stay up late for a good conversation.
