Absolutely wonderful property on a great stretch of the gorgeous gili air beach. Would definitely come back!
Pros:

Right on the beach in front of the best turtle snorkelling. Not on top of all the restaurants but a quieter relaxed area. Still only a short walk to everything. Only a couple of rooms so felt like our own house. Was a really beautiful stay and we would definitely choose this place again.

Cons:

I would normally prefer a toilet inside our room but in the end it was fine as just like a home from home as we didn’t see the other guest. The set up was really very good.

Pros:

Great location right on the beach. Big spacious apartment, nice and cool. Faisal was super helpful and friendly.

Cons:

The owner was staying which meant our room wasn't cleaned as the owners took precedent and then wanted another villa cleaned which was a bit awkward.

Great quiet location
Pros:

It was very quiet, with an excellent air conditioner, probably the best in all of Indonesia. Very close to a good cafe with great coffee, and a great Scuba diving centre. Lovely view of the sunrise.

Pros:

Проживали пять дней с ребенком. Лучшие апартаменты на Гили Эйр, пространство хорошо продумано , есть все необходимое. Красивый вид с балкона и самый лучший пляж как для купания , так и для снорклинга.

Très Décevant!
Pros:

rien

Cons:

Notre séjour de 2 nuits dans cet établissement était une grosse déception, nous avions loué 2 chambres (celle du rdc), les chambres ressemblent a des bunkers, une micro fenêtre pour avoir la lumière du jour, chambres très humide avec une odeur désagréable, lit inconfortable avec des oreillers de mauvaise qualité et beaucoup trop haut pour passer une nuit confortable, décoration plus que sommaire, aucun point d'eau dans la chambre, la salle de bain est en 2 parties, vous avez d'abord la douche extérieure (jolie mais très peu de pression), puis une deuxième pièce avec les toilettes et le point d'eau, très peu pratique. Bref un séjour très décevant, pas de possibilité de petit déjeuner, aucun accueil et services. Le prix est beaucoup trop élevé par rapport a la prestation, beaucoup d'options sur Gili Air bien plus attractives! A noter, possibilité de snorkeling avec tortues devant l'établissement mais plages avec coraux et déchets, aucun transat sur la plage de disponible.

It was an absolutely fantastic stay — we couldn’t have been happier.
Pros:

We stayed at the Hotel for about six nights and absolutely loved it. The place is beautiful and spotless — it looks exactly like in the photos. In front of the hotel, there’s a small, lush garden and a cozy terrace with two tables and chairs — perfect for sitting, reading, or studying in the shade while enjoying the calm atmosphere and the sea.

The rooms are set a bit further back in a peaceful courtyard, which makes them a little darker, but that also keeps them pleasantly cool. After a long day at the beach or diving, coming back to a cool room with the air conditioning on feels amazing. The outdoor shower surrounded by plants is such a lovely tropical touch — it feels private and refreshing.

Everything was super clean and well taken care of. The staff were incredibly kind, warm, and attentive. We even decided to extend our stay spontaneously, and they made it happen without any problem at all.

In the lobby area near, you can always refill your bottle with ice-cold water from a dispenser — such a thoughtful detail that we really appreciated in the Gili heat.

The location couldn’t be better — just steps away from the beach, surrounded by nice restaurants, and only a three-minute walk from the dive school. It was truly perfect for us.

Right in front of the hotel there’s a stunning reef for snorkeling — colorful, lively, and full of turtles and fish. The coral is incredibly well preserved, and you could easily spend hours or even days exploring it.

We had such a wonderful time at Cabana Hotel and would definitely come back. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Gili Air! 🌊🐢🌸
