Pros:

Sehr schöne Unterkunft mit privatem sichtgeschütztem Bereich. Super nettes Personal rundum zufrieden mit dem gesamten Team
Sehr leckere Küche nicht zu vergessen.

Cons:

Am Wasserdruck könnte man noch arbeiten. Aber das ist jammern auf hohem Niveau.

le petit déjeuner copieux et excellent.

contrairement a ce que l on pensait, l établissement n est pas en front de mer. meme si la mer est a 50 mètres max et qu il y a des matelas réservés aux clients de l hôtel.
pas de brosse dans les toilettes pour chipoter...

Bellissimo
Pros:

La struttura si trova su un’isola molto rurale, quindi è bene non aspettarsi servizi o comfort di lusso, ma vivere l’esperienza autentica dell’isola. Il personale è estremamente gentile e disponibile. Il mare si trova davvero a due passi dalla struttura e c’è anche la possibilità di organizzare escursioni di snorkeling per vedere le tartarughe.

Cons:

L’unico aspetto meno positivo è la posizione: intorno alla struttura non ci sono ristoranti o altri posti dove mangiare e, soprattutto la sera, anche fare una passeggiata può risultare complicato. Per spostarsi è quindi consigliabile affittare una bicicletta oppure utilizzare i mezzi di trasporto locali.

Nice stay in Gili Meno
Pros:

I stayed in a room with a private pool and I loved this little bubble of calm. I also appreciated the welcome and kindness of the staff, I should have taken a second night to enjoy the room and Gili Meno even more…

Cons:

Only downside, the curtains are not dark enough so in the morning the sunlight wakes up

Puro relax
Pros:

La posizione è ideale! A due passi dal mare dove troverete i lettini a vostra disposizione e dove potrete rilassarvi all’ ombra degli alberi riempiendovi gli occhi di azzurro! La struttura è curata e le stanze sia quelle col giardino che quelle con la piscina garantiscono la privacy. Camere spaziose e pulitissime. Bagno ampio e doccia con acqua dolce! Cosa rara sull’isola! Ambiente molto rilassante. I ragazzi della reception gentilissimi e sempre pronti ad aiutarvi per rendere il vostro soggiorno ancora più speciale! Colazione ottima! Pancakes squisiti! Anche il ristorante funziona bene, ma se vorrete provare anche altri locali, ne troverete diversi nelle vicinanze! Concludendo… Noi ci siamo trovati benissimo e ci è piaciuta tanto la cura di tanti piccoli dettagli e l’armonia con lo spirito dell’isola. Super consigliato!!!

Cons:

Nulla

Eine moderne Anlage mit unfassbar netten Mitarbeitern.
Pros:

Das Personal, vor allem Ali, war sehr freundlich und immer erreichbar. Auch das Frühstück war sehr lecker und frisch.
Die Zimmer waren mit Klimaanlage, einem Außen-Wasserhahn zum Füße waschen und großem Badezimmer ausgestattet. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt.
Auch die Lage ist perfekt, es liegt direkt am Strand, nicht mal eine Minute Fußweg und auch mehrere Restaurants sind direkt in der Nähe.
Was außerdem toll war, waren private Sonnenliegen am Strand nur für die Hotelgäste.

Clean comfortable but not worth the money
Pros:

Staff were great and very welcoming. There was a problem with the extra bed but there was great communication before we arrived and they were able to offer a good solution. The room was comfortable and the outside space and pool was a good size

Cons:

Unfortunately the location was not on the beach as suggested on booking.com. The hotel had allocated sunbeds on the beach but they had been taken by others who were not staying at the hotel. Also breakfast is very basic which would be ok if that was reflected in the room rate.

Location and staff friendliness

The bathroom and room itself were not the cleanest, but staff has confirmed to work on this in the future.

We stayed in Villa Samalas Villas Resort on Gili Meno in the middle of May 2026 for 7 nights
Pros:

The resort has only 4 Villas, but the Manager Mr. Nicola plans to extend the resort( pool, and few more Villas). The Villas are totally private, what we liked very much. There is a garden in front of the terrace and a private entrance door. The whole resort area is full of plants and coconut trees and looks very nice. Villa Samalas is one of only a few resorts on Gili Meno, which have sweet water in the bathrooms shower !! The beach is very close and there are sunbeds for the guests of Villa Samalas. Mr. Nicola and his team take care of their guests very good! There is no problem, they couldn`t solve it. We enjoy the time here very much!!

Wished we could have stayed longer!
Pros:

Amazing atmosphere, awesome staff, delicious food! Exceptionally clean with the bonus of a freshwater shower after a day on the beach. Great location as well on the northern end of the island.

We’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

Cons:
