Independent Gili Asahan hotels

"Our whole stay was absolutely fantastic. Anyone questioning whether to make the journey ABSOLUTELY should! Staff were the highlight - almost all local to the nearby village and relaxed, friendly and went above and beyond. As a family we travel a lot and this was definitely one of the best hotels we've visited. Off the beaten track, safe, authentic and geniune. Deni the driver and "

"Only 15 minutes to Diamond beach. The property has an incredible view of the sea, simply stunning. The room was very nice and the staff was exceptional. The grounds are quiet providing a place of tranquility. Loved it!!"

"Stunning views, best massages on the island, high quality spa, clean, yummy food, cozy comfortable beds, and it’s the only property with walking distance to the Atuh beach! Highly recommended!"

"The rooms were very clean, with a comfortable bed plus a large ensuite with immediate hot water if required, and were promptly serviced each day. Though I had to wait 20 mins when I arrived as the night-desk guy couldn't find my prepaid booking, after that the staff couldn't have been pleasanter or more helpful. They also provided a quick, efficient laundry service. A small in-house warung may be open in season but it was closed during this visit, so I had to go out for all meals; I'd have appreciated a breakfast option. But cold beer was available on request. Other negatives probably apply to other hotels as well; but in particular: There was no desk or equivalent in my room, although iirc some booking sites said there was. When I asked, the staff did provide a small, low, round table, but I couldn't use it for the laptop work I wanted to do. All chairs in the room and on attached verandah were in the local style, solid wood surfaces with no cushions or upholstery, and quickly became very uncomfortable. Intermittently there was appreciable noise: from the PA system of a nearby mosque; from the main west coast road outside the hotel; and from a non-muffled two-stroke pump set that the hotel used daily to clear water from an underground chamber."
