and loved it, although we stayed in a private villa it wasn't so nice, so we had a few meals and one lovely afternoon at different places, where all the hotels are near Jungut Batu Village.I would recommend staying here rather than Mushroom bay, there are so many nice places to stay along here, if you can go over with just a back pack you could easily wander around and find a place to stay.
We came over from Sanur by scoot boat(Lembongan Island fast cruises) the quickest way over, and one of the most terrifying trips in my life I was nearly crying!!! But we went over on the 4pm trip which is known to be rough, our return trip was 8.30 am and was great, US dollars $25 return adults, and RP 30,000 for porter.
Our Villas pool was so dirty that we paid to swim at Lembongan Island Beach Villas and had lunch there, sooooo nice but not budget, guy there said you could stay for $150.00 Aust. We had dinner at Ware-Ware surf bungalow and it was really nice and didn't look to expensive nice little pool.
There were just so many places to stay I would really say just go without booking.
Make sure you go around the Island and see the under ground house.
Have fun.
