Snorkeling de 1er choix toptoptop
Pros:

Tranquilité et personnel très accueillant

Cons:

Mer difficilement accessible à marée basse (après midi en cette saison), notre logement sans vue sur mer …. tout cela n’est pas bien grave pour un séjour de 3-4 jours 😌

Pros:

Si vous aimez le snorkeling c'est vraiment the place où vous poser. Super spot juste devant le bungalow+ les sorties en bateau qui sont incroyables aussi bien pour la beauté des coraux que pour la diversité de la faune sous-marine. Poisson lion, murènes, tortues... nous en avons eu plein les yeux. De plus les hébergements sur la plage sont confortables et très propres. La cuisine est excellente et surtout le personnel est très attentionné. Un remerciement particulier à Marie qui est un guide hors pair pour découvrir cet environnement merveilleux.

Gili Gede's Paradise
Pros:

Alam Karang is a small piece of paradise on beautiful island of Gili Gede. Gili Gede itself is great place to visit with nice beach and authentic village. In Alam Karang we could order massage, trip for snorkeling or food for lunch and dinner. Bungalows are beautiful, well arranged and clean. I loved bathroom in which we had wild flowers from garden looking through the window. There is also comfortable place at the restaurant where we could spend time together, drink Bintangs or mojitos. Staff in hotel were friendly and helpful, they arranged us transport from & to Lombok airport. The owner was very kind - she went with us on the snorkeling trip which was the best during our travel in Indonesia. WiFi working properly but only close to restaurant. We would love to be back in Alam Karang some day.

Cons:

I found nothing to complain about. We preffered food in the village as it was more authentic and less "western", but this is only our opinion (I can advise warung in the end of the village where food is quite spicy).
PS. there are pieces of reef on the beach in Gili Gede so it is worth to have swimming shoes.

Un paradis preservé
Pros:

Nous avons apprécié notre séjour d une semaine où nous avons pu nous relaxer dans ce lieu paradisiaque.
Il y a un spot de snorkeling 🐠juste en face et une sortie snorkeling à été organisée avec Alam Karang avec des spots de snorkeling faciles et préservés.
Les petits déjeuners ont un large choix et sont délicieux ainsi que les repas très copieux.
Le village tranquille se trouve à peine à un km en longeant la plage avec des warungs et un petit centre de massage avec un monsieur qui masse incroyablement bien.
Encore un grand merci à Marie pour sa French touch aussi loin de chez nous et à sa belle équipe qui ont contribué à nos merveilleuses vacances 😀

Lovely staff and good food
Pros:

Very good communication. They organise the transfer from the airport 400K for the car. Boat 50K per person. Comfortable and punctual. The staff are amazing. We were greeted by Danny who was so sweet and competent. They were all really nice and helpful. Food at the restaurant was good. The owner is French - fantastic crepes. The rooms are simple but comfortable. The single beds are a bit narrow but good mattresses. No bidet in bathroom. They organise excellent snorkeling trips. The guys from the hotel who do it really know their stuff. The snorkeling is top quality. So may varieties of fish. Pristine coral which sadly is a rare thing these days. Not to be missed

Cons:

Beach in front not great. Water nice but lots of vegetation so nice for floating but not swimming. Also we got stung by jellyfish. Not the dangerous ones but a bit uncomfortable. The island doesn't have good beaches. Most of the island is quite dirty
