Stayed one night in this villa, it is really old, dirty and needs maintenance. Swimming pool was not cleaned. I wouldn’t recommend stay there if you are looking a clean and cozy place. Staff were kind and friendly!

Visited all 3 Gili Islands and this island was easily our favourite. Gili Meno too quiet, Gili T too busy. Gili Air was a great balance between the two. ||Stayed at this hotel for 5 nights, wish it had been more. The accommodation is a 15 minute ride away from the port using the horse and cart transport. Alternative would have been a 30 minute+ walk in the heat and along the makeshift roads and dusty paths. ||We had a private villa with a small pool that was perfect. Really enjoyed the made to order breakfasts - the floating breakfast was a first and a bit of a novelty. The free fresh water in the large plastic dispenser was a very welcome. ||A bike is a necessity to get around the island and visit the many excellent beaches and restaurants. ||As previous reviews have mentioned - if you turn right out of the hotel entrance the pathway is extremely dusty. However, if you turn left you can avoid this. ||Recommend the H20 if you like Yoga.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff were all really friendly and helpful and the French owner was incredibly "on it" and professional, going out her way (in a good way!) to check on guests. The breakfast was SO good (croissant was a lovely treat!) and the rooms (including lovely honeymoon display) and pools are done beautifully. We also liked where it was located on the island so you were close to north stretch with sunset. The only downside is the access paths immediately surrounding the property (though not sure there's anything they can do about this as not their land...). Most of the island is paved or dust roads but the roads around this property are as thick as sand but it's just clouds of black dirt. It makes walking in and out very unpleasant and leaves your feet or shoes filthy every time.

This place is tucked away but it's close enough to everything making it peaceful and relaxing. The villa is beautiful and spacious with a great outdoor area where you can lay on sun lounges, relax in a refreshing pool and be served a delicious breakfast on a floating tray or seated by the pool. We had massages in our villa and dinner delivered one night to feel a bit decadent. |We were only about 250m from the water where the best snorkelling spot on the island is. We were also able to SUP here as well.|Owners and staff made you feel welcomed and made sure you enjoyed the experience. Will definitely stay again.

Beautiful villa with private pool. The staff was great and very friendly. The Room has been cleaned everyday and the towels had very good smell. The reason why I give only 4 stars it's the position. You need to walk at least 15 minutes or much more (it depends for which side you want to go from the island), the problem is the street to reach the hotel, is completely blind must of it and there is only one indication. For the rest we really enjoying our staying. We'll keep all the island on our hearts.

We've had a pleasant stay at this resort. We've spent there for 3 nights in a private villa with a pool. While checking in, we received a refreshing welcoming drink. During our stay, every member of the staff was always very friendly. Whenever we would go out or arrive back at the resort, they would always ask about our day, or give tips regarding the possible activities on the island. The beds are comfortable and the villa was spacious enough for two. For breakfast, they offer a large variety of options. For a gluten free diet, as a coeliac, it was possible to order things without bread, or even the vegan smoothie bowl without the granola (which was really good).
