Staying at The Oberoi Lombok need advice for Gilli acco.

Hi! My wife and I plan to stay in the Oberoi Lombok for three nights beginning April. We would like to spend another three to four nights in a good hotel in any of the Gilli Islands, preferably in a quieter place.

Would any of you be able to advise us on the right hotel to choose?

the best hotel in gili air is giloi air hotel at the north of the island.

gili trawangan has a mixture of good hotels but it is noisy at night on the east coast and quieter on the north and west of the island. alam gili has been getting good raves but i haven%26#39;t stayed there.

though this isn%26#39;t your direction but another good hotel is the novotel in the south of lombok.

thanks mate! what about the Beachhouse? Its seems to be getting great reviews here in the forum? Is it too noisy?

Beach House is good and has a variety of rooms and also a few small villas with plunge pools - it also has a small general pool. It is though in the more crowded corner of the island and the beach is not so good there. I didn%26#39;t find it noisy, many rooms are back abit from the action and the AC blocks some noise also. Their restaurant does an excellent seafood BBQ in the evening. The island is small enough to explore during the day and hang out at a better beach up northern end.

Alam Gili is further north and is operated by the same Balinese family that owns other small places in Ubud and has always had a good reputation.

There are some pretty good small hotels in the smaller Gilis but you may find it a little toooo quiet. Suggest you book a Hotel on Gili T but at the quieter end. Its an easy walk to the restaurants and pubs. Yes, Beach house is nice but it does have a fair bit of human traffic as it is near the entrance of Villa Ombak.

For a little luxury, with a great beach and some quiet, I reccomend Villa Almarick.

Wow! thanks for all the great inputs guys. I%26#39;ll check up on both Alam Gili and Villa Almarick on Gili T and try and book the rooms on the net.

thanks again, really appreciate it.

as was said the beach house is in the noisy area. i haven%26#39;t stayed there but it looks good. people who stayed there said they didn%26#39;t hear the noise. maybe thicker walls.

here is some info on beach house:

2 bedroom pool bungalow us$100 950 00 r US$ 121 nett

the last rooms mentioned looked good. there is no beach in front of the beach house at high tide. but there is a quiet long stretch of sand to the south 200m and to the north about 400 m. it also has a pool which is great because sometimes the water is full of stinging jellyfish

Just a thought, the Beach House have just opened some additional villas south of Beach House and should be a nicer beach - called Ko Ko Mo and the link is on their website, they would be a 5 - 10 minute stroll to alot of the main restaurants.
