Find hotels in Gili Air

PinkCoco Gili Air is about 12mins stroll from Gili Air harbour (turn left when arrive). I was welcomed by spectacular staffs at the reception, Putu, Hilda and Olga! They are always there to assist with any inquiries and suggestions about my snorkelling trips and other itineraries that I inquired. Restaurant staffs was also extremely warm and brought the fabulous Indonesian hospitality and always made me feel comfortable when I dine! I booked a cottage and the room was very comfortably big with high ceiling (atap houses style). Size was big with good tv reception. The toilet was also huge in Balinese style as there are straw atap/ceiling style. Kudos to the staff team! A lot of corporation and teamwork and keep up the excellent work! A point to note that all Gili islands do not really have a concrete road as it is all sand, so please don’t use bags with wheels!

Villa Karang is very close to the Gili Air harbor which meant we didn't have to pay a horse & buggy to take us to the hotel (they charge a fortune, 150K IDR for a 10 min ride??!). They didn't have our room ready just yet but gave us a free welcome drink and a cool refreshing cloth (we'd just hiked Rinjani so we were filthy). Within 10 min we were in the room which was very comfortable. Nice little porch, awesome outdoor shower. Only complaint about the rooms is that the walls are *VERY* thin, so we could hear everything our neighbors said or did. If you're looking for a hotel where you can just walk right out on to the beach, I'd recommend staying on either the East or North side of the island. We had to bike for about 10-15 minutes before we got to a good lounging beach with snorkeling. The harbor is packed with boats and dive centers trying to snag customers so it wasn't a relaxing location. We'd leave after breakfast and then make our way to either the E or N beaches to stay all day, returning after dinner to the hotel.

When you are on a remote location like Gili Air, which doesn't even have own source of drinking water you can understand how difficult it is to provide proper service to guests. But we got Tania as a manager who helped us throughout our stay there and made our stay more like a home. Property is close to jetty, takes around 5-7 minute on foot. Specially most of Gili AIr road are just sand but up to this property roads are better, so you can just walk. This is definitely a recommended place to stay in Gili Air. Other places we found better in terms of accommodation are away from jetty. Specially last week government tore down all the restaurant and beach side pool on the island so most of it looks clumsy right now. Possibly will be sorted in next 2-3 weeks. I miss their amazing breakfast on the beach table!

stayed 3 nights at the omah gili hotel in the standard bungalow. bungalow (with ac) is to be considerid basic and provides all one needs on gili air: a good bed and shower. staffing is friendly and serves nice breakfasts and keeps the bungalow nice and clean. swimmingpool is not the best to be found on the island, however the beach provides good stay instead. no tv in the bungalow available (i like) and a water tank to fill up your bottle(s) each day. gili has a lovely beach all around. a walk around the island takes about 60 upto 90 min. we haven't been to gili t. however i think the accent on gili air lies more on tranquility and in our humble opinion it provides a good mix with the bars / restaurants. tip for the lazy backpacker: -suggest to take the horseride upon arriving gili air (50k).

Mola Mola is a fantastic resort! The location is perfect; I would say its situated on the best part of the island. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The free bicycles are a lovely touch. The pool however had a bit of a murky green color and not very inviting. Then again, who needs a pool when you have the ocean on your doorstep! Ample choices for breakfast. I was foolish enough to forget my bag containing my phone and all essential travel documents while heading to Gili Air. I only realized when I was on the boat. A few phone calls and low and behold my bag was brought to the harbor in Gili Air and shipped to Padang Bai on the next boat. You can imagine my relief when a perfectly packed parcel containing my bag and all its contents was handed over to me a couple of hours later! Thank you Mola Mola for all the effort. A shining example of caring for your guests. A small tip for fellow travelers; the Lumbung suites are lovely but not very practical in the heat. There's only a 1 ton split AC which of course can't possibly cool 2 floors. Also the design is not practical with closet space and bathroom on the ground floor and sleeping arrangements on the top floor. We had initially booked the Lumbung suite but moved to the Deluxe Suite which is fabulous! Highly recommended.

After 2 weeks there, we really think this is the best place to stay on Gili Air. The location right by pier is great, the grounds are really lovely, staff was friendly, cleaning staff were sweet and thorough, and two big pools! There is the big pool up front where most dive classes are taught, but there is another big pool in back by the two garden bungalows, and we felt like this was sometimes our own private pool since so few people used it. An instructor course used it a few times, as did a few free divers to practice, but hardly anyone else used it. Big beautiful pool only a few months old, as we understand it. We did have a problem with our ac in first room, but it was addressed quickly with a move to a garden bungalow, which was lovely. Big room and bathroom with nice deck overlooking back pool. The two bungalows are also newer than the other rooms and bungalows. We loved breakfast up front looking over the water and at the people catching the ferries every morning. We have no idea why anyone would complain about getting their own coffee or water for breakfast like I read in other reviews, since free coffee, tea and water is available all day. The breakfast staff was friendly and service was great. We ordered our breakfast from the bar where we made our morning coffee, and they brought our plates to us wherwver we sat. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Only advice would be if you gave a problem that is bugging you, mention it to the European staff, and it will be addressed. Great island and great place to stay. Note an ATM is right next to resort where there is also sone reasonable local food places and a great street food guy in the evening.. Go to dinner once or twice to Chillout or Zipp bar heading left when facing the pier. Great and reasonable kebab dinner on a pretty beach, its 10 min walk passing a 2nd ATM. We dove with the shop once and they were great. Saw lots of turtles!.

Cosy, spacious cottage with private bathroom attached. Very clean (the staff cleaned once a day and also changed towels). Sadly, the Wifi was not working very well, but you wont have enough time to hang around the internet anyway, als Gili Air is beautiful. I really liked their breakfast. You can choose between 3 options and enjoy your breakfast with view on the open ocean.

We loved our stay at Samata Village. The staff were especially kind and helpful and did so much to ensure our stay was comfortable. The pool is lovely and bungalows are beautiful and very clean. Because the hotel is set back from the beach it is also a very peaceful oasis after a day of adventuring. Would highly recommend the hotel to travelers looking for accommodations on Gili Air.

I'm quite surprised to read the other comments. Firstly, Gili Air boasts its natural features and so people should naturally expect to encounter wildlife at some extent (if you can't tolerate harmless little bugs then perhaps the island's not for you, so you might as well do yourself a favor and plan a trip elsewhere). As a visitor I highly respect the diverse cultures of the places that I visit and Gili Air, Lombok has a majority of Muslim locals who pray at their intended times. The Mosque calling in the morning actually made me catch the unbelievable sunrise that I thought I would've missed. #positivethoughts #goodvibes I find that the colorful gardens surrounding the Joglo Bungalows are rather magical, it's almost like a mini "secret garden" hidden between the intense heat, very delightful. Pool water's crystal clear. Located in the middle of the island, easy to get around. Clean and comfy linen. Staff were actually very helpful and spoke pretty decent English for a local. Definitely one of Gili Air's hidden gems. Will be back when I get the chance.

Right from the start Puri went out of their way to make us welcome. agoda confirmed our stay but Puri was fullybooked, however they still managed to find room for us, and moved us to our bungalow the next day. The staff are all very friendly and will do anything to help you. The location is stunning, best part of the island away from the harbour traffic. Murni and Graham even went out of their way to organised a driver in lombok for us. Staying at Puri Air has been the highlight of our honey moon! Thanks Murni, Graham, Tin, Amir, Gus and all the rest of the staff for making our stay amazing.....Tip if your going, stay on a friday night there is a great live band from lombok that comes each week. 10/10.

We intended to stay for 2 nights on Gili Air, and decided to stay at Chill Out Bungalows. The greeting on arrival was friendly, and we were able to store our luggage until we checked in. The bungalow was clean, the bed comfortable and the fan and AC were a welcome relief from the heat. One big plus for us was the ability to refill our water bottles from the water dispenser in the room. The comfortable lounge area outside (also with a nice fan) meant this place really lived up to it's name and gives you space to chill out and relax. The convenient location across from the beach made for easy snorkelling and the food at the restaurant was excellent. We enjoyed our stay so much we ended up spending a full week on Gili Air (but we stayed at other accommodation since Chill Out was, understandably, fully booked). Would recommend.

This hotel made our stay in Gili Air great! Clean room and bathroom with new beach towels everyday. Nice heated pool and convenient foot bath. Connection to Chill Out restaurant in front of a nice beach about 10 minutes walk away where you can have your breakfast and get free access to sunbeds on the best beach. The breakfast is HUGE, can easily feed 3 people so you don’t need to buy lunch! Would definitely stay here again!

While we were there, The Beach Club was purchased by Scallywags (the neighboring restaurant and hotel). This was a definite upgrade for us, as Scallywags has an amazing breakfast, pool, awesome service, etc. Scallywags immediately started renovating the Beach Club, which was a little old and neglected. I know they will turn it into something special. Both properties are on the BEST beach on the island AND very well located close to the pier. The rooms at the Beach Club were spacious and nice. Bathroom was very nice. Staff was awesome.

We loved our stay at Sunrise! We had stayed on the other side of the island the first two nights and only stayed one at Sunrise. I wish we had stayed all three at Sunrise! The pool is beautiful and really nicely landscaped. The hotel is set back enough that it is very peaceful and quiet. Just a quick one minute walk and you are in "downtown" Gili Air. The restaurant wasn't mind blowing, but it was well worth the free breakfast. For what the island has to offer, I would still rate this restaurant in the top 10. There is a lot of good eating within a five minute walk. We went to Bebo and the gniochi was amazing! We stayed in an awesome little two story apartment, almost like a tree house. We just had a fan it was lovely and cool. The bed was very comfortable and clean. The bathroom was nothing amazing but nothing in Gili Air is the Ritz. We shared a bathroom with a large spider and a very friendly gecko. It was a fabulous stay and we will certainly return for another one. Friendly staff was a huge bonus! Thanks Bubba!

This place is great. It's affiliated with a nice resort so you get a free buffet breakfast included and access to their pool. It's only a three minute walk away. Not too far from the good swimming beach on Gili Air. Room was clean and AirCon worked well. No hot water, but it wasn't freezing either. Ended up staying 5 nights, highly recommended! We ate as much as we could at breakfast so that we didn't have to eat lunch and only paid for dinner out on Gili Air.

Actually we were arranged by Agoda for this hotel just 2 days b/f our trip this time. But i would like to say! It is our super lucky to be chooses for this hotel in our last stop of this trip in Gili air. Gili air is just a Good island for vocation... busy street w/ bars and shops but not that noisy. And Lagoon hotel is located in the most bustling place of this island. But inside of the hotel, it is quiet and nice view w/ houses and garden... nice swimming pool surrounded each room, seems we are totally in another beatiful world w/ trees and birds singing everywhere, also in the night, we can sit outside of the rooms but in the pool, looking up, stars are in the sky, shining and bright. What a beautiful view... Really nice and deep impression trip for our last 2 days stopping in Gili Air, due to this hotel. We, all of our 7 people would like to stay there if we have chance to go there again.

After hiking Mt. Rinjani, I came to Gili Air expecting to rest and perhaps be a little pampered. This is one of the comfiest hotels I've stayed in while traveling Asia. I had a twin room to myself. It was very clean and spacious. The bathroom was very large and had hot water (which was very needed after hiking Rinjani!). The free breakfasts were also great, especially the banana pancake. The wifi was decent (island-quality--it can be hit or miss), and the pool outside was great. They also have a laundry service, and the staff are super friendly. Stay here if you come to Gili Air!

Small place with lovely little bungalows that look out onto the beach. Clean, simple rooms and a good bathroom, cold shower but you get that pretty much everywhere on Gili Air and its actually quite refreshing in the heat. Not much more was needed as we were hardly in our room. We had a fan room which got quite hot late avo and in the evening so would recommend one of the a/c rooms if available. Breakfast is simple but good, coffee and omelettes overlooking the sea and Gili Meno, you do get stunning views here. Beach loungers and traditional bales available to relax on and enjoy the view and water. Easy 20/25 minute walk from the harbour should you not wish to take a horse and cart. Perfect place to watch sunset from and lots of options to eat at are close by, there is a good atmosphere around this area.

Everything was perfect about this place from its location right on the beach(where the snorkelling and diving is amazing), the good quality food(indo and italian cuisine) to the friendliness of the staff. Always have a smile on and willing to help. I actually got quite friendly with some of them. Its the perfect place for relaxation, couple/honeymoon, adventure/sports holiday etc. It has everything. I only spent 3 nights here as that was my schedule but next time I go ( and there'll definitely be a next time) I will be staying much longer. I was quite sad leaving gili air hotel. 10/10 place.

The owners and staff were amazing. From the private breakfasts, pools, and bikes to the beautifully decorated bedrooms and outdoor bathrooms, Ke Rensia was a perfect secluded paradise. Located in the center of Gili Air - it was super easy for us to quickly bike or walk to any part of the island. The owners were extremely friendly and were quick to offer advice and suggestions while on the island. Would highly recommend staying at Ke Rensia, perfect for a romantic getaway.

The place was exactly as described. I stayed there with a friend and we had a lovely time. We had a warm welcome by Imam and were given a lot of tipps and imformations about gili air, which were super helpful. There was also some snorkling-equipment in our villa... that was just perfect! The breakfast was wonderful. I totally recommend the place and will definitely be back!

As known, Gili Air isn't a big island. Kaluku Gili Resort is located at a very strategic place next to Blue Marine dive shop. Not only that, it is only 2km away from Jetty and the main street, not too far away into the deserted area. To me the North- West island is deserted, too quiet without shops and lights. Highly recommend this resort for their strategic location, friendly stuff, good food, good service, away from the busy streets and crowd. If you are seeking for your a short gateway in Gili Air, this resort is definitely top in the list. P.S: I won't recommend you to rent a bicycle to tour around the island. Most part, about 2km you have to drag your bicycle instead of riding time due to the sandy beach.

The stay at D'jamezz was exceptional. The owners are a couple, one from Holland and the other from Indonesia who are very friendly and welcoming. They have two helpers that cook you breakfast and help you with renting bicycles or get you a beverage by the pool, the two of them are so kind and just want to help in any way. D'jamezz has 3 villas so it's never to busy by the pool and a great place to relax and enjoy a book. The property is well kept and nicely landscaped and only a 15 minute walk from the harbour and only a 5min walk to the nearest beach. I would definitely recommend this place as a good place to stay on Gili Air.
