Gili Air

After my intense Thailand holiday, I think I deserve a quiet 3 days 2 night holiday to recover the big city trip!

So here I am with another group of girls (that I went with last year to Laos) to visit the Gili Air. Gili Air is the smallest of the Gilis (Gili = island) and it's closest to the Lombok mainland. The island is popular with honeymoon couples and travelers seeking a quiet retreat. It has population of about 1,000 and administratively lies in the West Nusa Tenggara province. Our villa has an excellent snorkeling and the area of the island and also the Gili Meno and Gili Trawangan has scuba drops & diving spots. Some sea turtles can be seen along the coral reef too.... woohooo.... it was a great retreat for the 4 of us!


The Gili Islands is located northwest of Lombok. These islands has several small resorts, usually consisting of a collection of huts, a small pool and restaurant. Most local inhabitants live on Trawangan in a township stretching along its east side just inland (which is also where most recent development is taking place).

Today we are in Gili Air (one of the 3 Gilis, Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air group)

dinner on the 1st night, great seafood grill!
sunrise from the front of our hotel, was magical.... Mt. Rinjani is so beautiful!
