The breakfast was not enjoyable. The smoothie bowl were served almost warm, they were blended without ice and The avocado toast was bad. The y didn't have a proper coffee machine just regular Lombok coffee. The tea was drinkable. The barista lacks experience. The rooms were very nice and good view but once I turned the Aircon off, there was this smell that I didn't like but it wasn't terrible.

It was a good hotel too relax and be in a large group. Their best asset was their location as it was on a quiet beach and it was not touristy. However, the food at breakfast was not good at all, avocado toast with cheese? Not many drink optiona and a lack of flavours.

I was NOT staying there, just a sunset visitor. :) I visited twice. Staff was very friendly. To pay I had to got to the cashier which I did not mind at all. The drinks were nice I had the Gili Gin Sling and a Whiskey Sour for happy hour :) they also brought me (at my first visit) one after I finished the first one - which I really appreciated. The second visit they brought me both at the same time, but I really did not mind. The waiter was not very fluent in Englisch. At my first visit I had the spinach dish (Kangkung) which was sooooo delicious!! For only 50k. I liked it a lot. The second visit I had done grilled prawns which canoe with rice (or potatoe) with vegetables (which was a salad!! Was about disappointed on that one) but all on all it was fine. I would go there anytime again :)

The view is the only redeeming quality of this place. Unfortunately, the food was very disappointing – dry garlic bread, bland soup, and calamari that was rock hard. We weren’t even given a menu at the start, which set the tone for the rest of the experience. Service was poor as well; it honestly felt like most of the staff were either completely new or simply untrained. Overall, not worth a visit unless you’re only here for the scenery.

This Hotel is really a nice spot on our earth. We really enjoyed the time here. Staff was always very kind and the island mood of slowing life a bit down is here completely valid. The sunset spot no. 1 on Gili Air. The food is really good and drinks as well and prices are valuable. Eddy, Madday & Husman are great at the bar & food. And also reception staff was really nice. Of course the hotel has no pool at the moment but we did not miss it, as the ocean is great enough. Just relaxing here and really nice 👍🏼 We will come back :) Cheers

This place is nice, but the location was not what I was looking for. The location is good in that it is on the beach, but to get there from the boat docks is a little far and you have to go through a little forest. This can be challenging at night as it’s not well lit. The location has a restaurant right on the beach, but somehow the tables and cabanas are not inviting. I did have breakfast there, but I did not want to eat dinner there even though the prices were reasonable. The breakfast options were good and the guys working there were super nice. The bungalow was nice with a mostly enclosed bathroom (good in rainy season) and the entryway had beautiful plants. The room would have been better with a luggage rack or table to put my luggage on, but it wasn’t bad. It is a good place and if you don’t want to go to the town at night it’s a good place.
