Today, marks a new era for hotels with award winning design-led hotel collection Ovolo disrupting all the rules, giving guests what they want (what they really really want!) - a new price match guarantee and a flexible cancellation policy coupled with the existing freebies with a new campaign dubbed ‘NFW!’. As part of Ovolo's mission to deliver the ultimate effortless customer experience, Ovolo extends its already o-mazing offering of staple signature ‘freebies’ (which include free in-room mini bar, social happy hour, WiFi, self-laundry, breakfast and 24 hour gym access), by rolling out two disruptive policies across Ovolo Hotels in Australia and Hong Kong from 1 May this year.  Lowest Rates for Straight Shooters (New Rate Policy) When booking directly via the website (ovolohotels.com), Ovolo can guarantee prospective visitors receive the cheapest rate available on their website. But that’s not all… If the rate decreases from the time the room was booked to the time of check in, Ovolo will gift the lucky visitor the difference in credit to spend anywhere at Ovolo. No Excuses Needed (New Flexible Cancellation Policy) It’s a typical trait to try and forger up a fib when altering or cancelling a reservation, to avoid those hard-hitting cancellation fees. Not here, not now. Ovolo’s new policy means there's no need to get creative with the excuses, just let them know and a small fee will be charged for either cancelling or swapping a room prior to your stay.

The project has 22 unique villas completed thus far and is slated to have 45 villas completed by 2020. The villas range from one bedroom to seven bedrooms, all custom designed and with private pools. With this, Asian market leader Elite Havens has increased its footprint in Lombok to 26 stunning luxury villas. Lombok has grown from an island of sleepy fishing villages into one of Indonesia's most prized gems. It is the tropical hideaway of Bali forty years ago with an incredibly picturesque landscape of verdant mountain greenery and white beaches bordering an azure sea. Getting here is easy, with direct flights from Bali, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Perth, Jakarta, amongst others. Currently SilkAir offers direct international flights from Singapore, while AirAsia has direct flights from Kuala Lumpur and Perth. Garuda Indonesia has announced it will launch direct flights from Lombok to Guangzhou in the near future. Domestic flights are also available from many destinations within Indonesia with Garuda Indonesia, Lion Air and Batik Air. Flight time from Bali is just 25 minutes, while a fast boat takes approximately two hours from Serangan or Padangbai. Each of the 22 villas at Selong Selo is unique and stunning. Conveniently located a short drive from the airport and stone's throw from the most breathtaking beach, some are ideal for a romantic getaway while others are perfect for a family vacation. This partnership complements Elite Haven's existing portfolio in Lombok which includes some of the most outstanding luxury homes on the island.
