Great staff, perfect sunset location
Pros:

Staff were exceptional, perfect location for sunset, away from the hustle of the port but everything very easy to get to on such a small island! Sushi was good and great cocktails too. Rooms were nice and cool, with good outdoor shower. Just be sure to keep the doors shut from mosquitos!

Cons:

You had to keep the curtains shut otherwise people could see into your bungalow as they walked past.

Pros:

The location was really nice as it's on the beach and nearby multiple good restaurants to explore.

Cons:

Food:
Coffee was very sour even with milk
Sushi was not bad but was not good, fell apart, not made right.
Payment:
They refused to let us pay by card, we needed to insist and then they tried to charge us extra 3% interest for the card device. Which is illegal by their law. Finally accepted when we refused and reminded them about the law.
Price:
It was too high for the kind of room and facilities they provide.

Overall: It was fine stay. Nothing too bad but it could get much better with a little bit of consideration and attention from their side.

Friendly hotel in central location
Pros:

The hotel staff are great. Very friendly and helpful. Quick to address issues. The room was comfortable and the pool is very nice. (I appreciate that the pool is set back and not right in front on the walkway as at many other properties).
It’s well located on the island so you’re about 20 minutes walk to the main town or the same up to the wider beaches in the turtle area.

Cons:

There really isn’t a swimming beach. The beach is quite small there and there are no sunbeds or umbrellas so I went to other places for beach time.

Mooie locatie maar wel
Pros:

De locatie is echt prima en ook het diner/sushi is ondanks de hogere prijs goed.

Cons:

Schoonmaken van de kamer duurde 2,5 uur daarom de tweede dag maar niet laten doen. Zwembad werd midden op de middag schoongemaakt en dan kan je er op prime time geen gebruik van maken. Het ontbijt hadden we bijgeboekt en valt zwaar tegen, of twee pannenkoeken (de helft van wat op de ontbijtkaart staat voor 55k) en of een sapje of een bordje fruit. Dat is bij elkaar voor nog geen 200k voor twee personen. In andere hotels betaalden we 115-150k voor ontbijt en kregen meer dan het dubbele tot een buffet aan toe.

Nora looked after all my needs - she was great.
Pros:

Excellent Airconditioning, very comfortable bed. Room was beautifully appointed and bathroom was a delight.

Cons:

Noise from other properties, but the whole of Gili Air is built up so wherever you will stay you will hear your neighbors.

Nice but not Fantastic
Pros:

Están en los más mínimos detalles, limpieza, mosquitos plug and spray, flowers, huts, etc. very week presented room.

Cons:

The toilet is open with out roof, even thought we were in the dry season rained :(, was full of mosquitos the toilet. We go showered by the rain in the need of WC.
The cabin is nice and well take care (nr10) but it limit with a neighbour that lives there and play guitar every night. The sounds came trough the open toilet.

Beautiful Island Resort
Pros:

I really enjoyed my stay at Hakuna Matata. The room was beautiful and the bed and pillows were really comfortable. The pool was very clean and landscaping on the property is stunning.. It was nice to have beach towels as well as bath towels and a woven beach bag for the beach. The staff here are also lovely. A special thanks to Nora, Adi and Topan :)

Cons:

There are a few mosquitoes around like most places on the island so bring repellent and you will be fine

Precio elevado sin desayuno, wifi malísimo ! Mejores opciones en la isla.
Pros:

- Cama cómoda
- Decoración bonito

Cons:

Por el precio bastante elevado para la isla no nos gustó:
- Wifi malísimo no funciona dentro del Bungalow
- No incluye desayuno (a casi 80€ la noche no vale la pena)
- Todos los detalles de aseos que sueles tener en otros alojamiento por un precio bastante más económico, aquí no había (cepillo de dientes, etc.)

Muchas mejoras por hacer y reajustar el precio!
