We spent 3 days in standards bungalows - which are very basic, equipped with fan and mosquito net. This is close to nature bungalow - be careful on lizards - you will find many of them not only around bungalow :) The price was not big so I have not expected anything more. There is very good restaurant in the... More

We didn't stay here, but my husband and I found this place for lunch. It was so good we went back again the next day for the exact same thing: Spicy Sasu Salad (long beans and tempeh), traditional home made Fish Curry, and the spicy Papaya Salad. YUM!!!! Don't miss it!

We booked the Villa for 2 weeks over Christmas. On seeing our Villa we extended our stay. Andy and Rosie do a geat job and enjoy it. She even lined up her car and driver for our trip to Lombock. Andy has a boat for fishing, fun and touring. Food is fabulous and many choices for breakfast.

i can recommend this place: - it´s simple, but relaxing - very nice owner! very helpful! - breakfast is very basic.. :( - nice beach directly in front of the restaurant, snorkeling possible - i would recommend to book an own hut, because the "double" hut has only "paper walls"..

We spent four nights at Gili Air Santay. The room was clean and basic, no A/C, but a fan and a nice porch for hanging out. What really made this place was the staff: Rosie is quite the friendly character, and the guys and gals working for her are all sweet and helpful. The FOOD is fabulous. If you opt... More

We stayed 5 nights at Santay, and it was nice. We had a bungalow, and it was about as expected. The bed was nice, with mosquito nettings. Other than that it is basic. As in most other places on the Gili's (and in Indonesia) it is not an automatic flush toilet, but a bucket of water you pour into the... More

This place was recommanded to us by the Rinjani Garden owners in Lombock, as we had loved this place we fully trusted them to be great too. We were sorely disappointed. Although its located in a large garden (not very agreable as completely wild), the bungalow we were given, is extremely dark, smelt pretty bad, was dirty and dusty, the... More

When you get sick of the hustling from Bali, or Sengiggi or Gili T, this is the place to come to! Rosey and her little community are fantastic hosts!!! Rosie is a character, very warm and knowledgeable about all things Lombokian. Her staff are very helpful, kind and courteous! The food is highly recommended, and you dine in a fantastic... More

Our time at Gili Air Santay was just great. We stayed for 10 nights and it was just the relaxation we were looking for. The rooms were dark, but that is typical Indonesia. The bathroom was large and the toilet was flushable by tipping water down yourself, also pretty normal in Indonesia. The bed was excellent and the fan more... More

We stayed in Gili Air Santay for 5 nights in July 2009. We rented a bungalow, which had a little porch, its own bathroom, and a nice sized, clean room. Facilities are adequate, but this is Gili, and what the island lacks in some aspects, makes up for it in others. The shower runs with salt water, which I think... More
