OK, so 5 stars for everything looks like I haven't really thought about it, but i have.
Hani Hideaway was the most expensive place we stayed during our Indonesia trip (Which included Uluwatu, Gili Meno and Nusa Lembongan) but it was our best experience, by far and worth every penny...
It's difficult to know where to start. Let's begin with the staff. Every member of staff genuinely cared about our experience. Not only were they kind, friendly and looking to improve our stay in any way they could, but they were genuinely fun and awesome to be around. Although everyone was fantastic, big shout outs go to Peng, Johnny & Adi who went above and beyond in every way. The super high level of the staff speaks volumes in terms of great training and culture at Hani.
Secondly, the accomodation, landscaping, pool and 'hang-out' spaces. Hide-Away by name, hide-away by nature! A blissful oasis right that you'd never know was there, right off the bustling main street in Gili Air. The attention to design detail, the beautiful verdant gardens, the luxurious chill-out sofas in the restaurant area were all incredible. We felt spoiled rotten and also incredibly at home. Particular big plus for me were all the beautiful sculptures and 'masks' around the space. I am a sculptor myself and was totally charmed by all these incredible artistic details.
Last, but definitely not least, the restaurant. The breakfasts were so good and plentiful that returning home has been a real come-down! Delicious and beautifully presented, so much incredible food in the mornings. Every day breakfast felt like a real indulgence. Evening meals only added to the experience. We hadn't eaten this well anywhere else on our trip. Absolutely wonderful food. I'm no expert but maybe I'd call it Indonesian fusion? In any case, I'm still dreaming about my meals at Hani and we're saving up to return very soon.
Thank you to all at Hani Hideaway for a very wonderful experience!
