Gili Air Bungalows

I was skeptical before booking but wow I was pleasantly surprised when I entered the property. It's well maintained and very clean. The swimming pool is gleaming and is very inviting. Breakfast is around 700m of walking at the beach at their other property and very very good. You get a full three course breakfast and the staff are really attentive and nice. The star of the show is of course Herman. He showed us different rooms and made sure we are comfortable and satisfied with the room. Their other property looks good too ( coco breeze ) but we preferred gili bungalows because it's quiet. The other guy at reception is just as friendly and respectful. I will surely return. Last but not least. The beds are so comfortable and it's always something I worry about. Thanks Herman. You are fantastic. I will tell my friends in South Africa to stay here.

What a great find. Only 8 excellent rooms. pool in the middle, a little inland, great breakfast down on the beach at the Chillout Bar. I cannot recommend this place enough. Staff were great no issues wit anything. This is not 5 star if you are into that the of place. We enjoyed our stay there immensely. Also just across from the bungalow is a fantastic Warung, where the curry's are fantastic and the price exceptional value

We can't say enough good things about Gili Air Bungalows! Herman made sure our stay was amazing and memorable! We were an extended family of 6 and had two bungalows for 3 nights. The bungalows were clean, comfortable and beautiful! The pool was surrounded by incredible gardens and was so lovely and refreshing! We used their laundry service and were very happy with it. We also used their recommended captain for a snorkelling trip and he was the best! We ended up going on a sunset cruise with him the last night because him and his staff were so great. Ask Herman to set you up with him and you won't be disappointed! There are plenty of shops and restaurants in close walking distance and although the included breakfast is a ways down the road, it's well worth the walk! We enjoyed a delicious beachside breakfast each morning. Thank you to Gili Air Bungalows for a fantastic stay, we will return again one day for sure!

Vibrant coloured furniture and established private garden around the pool, easy for kids to swim while parents very nearby at the room. Flowers and towel sculptures decorating the beds were a pretty touch. Tidy family room made up daily whilst we were at breakfast. Generous included breakfast, friendly staff, immaculately kept grounds. Toilet paper, welcome drinks, daily bottled water, hot/cold water dispenser of mineral water safe for westerners to drink, handy to make noodle cups for cheap family lunches. Mini fridge with freezer helpful to make own bottled water ice and chill the local fruit we bought for snacks. Included pool towels. On-site handling of laundry on our behalf. Highly recommend.

We had stayed at Chillout Bungalows before and absolutely loved the service - hats off to Herman the reservation manager 👏 There was nothing he wouldn't say no to. Every support we needed at any time, was attended to. This time we stayed at their other property Gili Air Bungalows as the price suited us better. I thought I was taking a gamble knowing how amazing service we had the last time. And...it still exceeded my expectations. I stayed in a lumbung style (smaller room) and my partner stayed in the bigger glass wall room with teak wood (smelled great in his room by the way!) Everything worked perfect. Wifi. Aircon. Fridge. Cutlery. Hot/Cold water dispenser. The stroll to Chillout for breakfast every morning was such a breeze and meditative. It felt really good to walk before and after breakfast. So while there's no room service for food, it didn't bother us at all. Plus, the breakfast was massive! I loved my Dragonfruit juice every morning + excellent long black coffee. I had a ton of fruits with yogurt. Occasionally porridge. And the poached egg is perfect. Added greens next to it at no extra charge. Pancakes are also included but that's when my partner can eat more than me! :) The swimming pool and greenery around it looked gorgeous! Couldn't resist not taking a photo one day when all I wanted to do was - nothing. It is a gem. I would suggest packing earplugs as you can hear the mosque - and 32 decibels for foam ear plugs worked magically. And yes, there IS hot water in the shower (as I was reading previous posts). 🙌 The beds were super comfy and I woke up earlier than ever feeling so refreshed. It felt like a retreat. Truly. And again, BIG thanks to Herman who is on the ball with anything and everything. All the staff are glowing with smiles and ready to help. There was always staff on duty and bicycles to rent on arrival. Wish I took more photos to share... I cannot recommend this place highly enough. 5 stars 🌟
