Mahamaya Gili Meno

Great resort in Gili Meno, amazing staff and good food great service !!

The villa was clean, comfortable, and the a/c worked well. Located on a beautiful beach where turtles swim by in the mornings. Food was excellent, will definitely come back.

This cozy boutique hotel by the beach is very beautiful, friendly and the food was amazing - plus you dine right at the waterfront with magical sunset. As an extra plus "Divine Divers" was right next door. So our teens and us went diving every day. Our son took the open water dive certificate. We all saw big turtles every day and lots of beautiful fish. Bring shoes if you wanna snorkle from the hotel since the corals starts right at the front and 10 meter out the underwater life is stunning. The island is quiet but the only minus is the Ecco from Island Gili T (the island next to Gili Meno) which is a party island. But it's only for a couple of hours when the wind has a special direction. There are no cars on the island only horse-taxies so you really get down in tempo and you have no other option than relax!

I can confidently say that this hotel is the best on the island, even above the "luxury" Bask investment villas close by. This is because while staying at Mahamaya, we didn't see a single mosquito the whole time despite dining outdoors, whether morning, noon, and night. Within 5 minutes of sitting down to dinner at Bask, my dining companion (who has the genetic mosquito pheromones that attract them) was bitten four times. The rooms are clean and stylish, and the service is excellent. We were given iced tea welcome drinks upon arrival, check-in was a breeze, they showed us the interest points of the island, and they showed us everything in the room. The hotel has an eco-friendly approach with the rooms designed for airflow and they don't use plastic bottles water, instead there is a cold water dispenser in each room. There are two pools and the rooms open up to the pools. The beach is a 2 minute walk from the room, through the restaurant and bam, right there. Unlike going to the beach in America (pack everything up, fight for parking, trudge over hot sand to find a spot on the crowded beach, feel uncomfortable with sand all over you in the car ride back), Mahamaya had the beach right there and your room is a 1 minute walk to shower after swimming. They have snorkeling gear you can use for free (there is a lot of coral under the water though, so you need to be a strong swimmer to swim out to be deep enough to snorkel). Mahamaya faces west and is a very beautiful sunset spot. There's also a restaurant a few doors down that has a fire show and live music at sunset. The dining is open air, and you can dine for lunch under the covered area to escape the hot sun and then take dinner at the tables on the beach at night with your toes in the sand. On traveling with Celiac (I am not that sensitive to cross-contamination): I think Mahamaya and Bubbles Bar & Restaurant are the only two that label their dishes if they are gluten free. However, you need to use your celiac card (the one from EasyEats will do) to explain that you cannot eat gluten-containg products. The Vietnamese rice rolls came with a soy sauce dipping sauce so I asked them to change to fish sauce. The Nasi Goreng has an Indonesian sweet soy sauce and I didn't know which brand, so I wasn't sure if it was gluten free. Ask for no Chinese soy sauce and no Indonesian soy sauce (you must specify that you don't want either). I'll save you the trouble of asking about the burgers - the paddies are prepared in advance the Aussie way, aka with breadcrumbs. Instead, get the steak which was filet mignon at an unbeatable price and was one of the best steaks I've ever had in my life. Top 5. It was low season so the staff remembered me and my orders from day to day and could guess what I wanted to order. 😂 All the staff were very kind and helpful. I think the hotel was built about 15 years ago but you can tell that they continually refresh the rooms and update them with new fixtures, etc. as we

Wow.....just wow. This is an amazing place. It's just the most beautiful setting. Staff were so friendly and happy and very helpful. They just wanted to make our stay a happy one, and they did. The food was amazing. Plenty choice and trust me, every dish was so very tasty. Breakfast was freshly made and delicious. There was so much to choose from, and nothing was too much trouble. It's a Coral island, so I always wore my beach feet as I have tender feet. The boat trip to the statues was fantastic. Be mindful that the current is very strong, so just remember that. We swam with turtles and watched them from the sun loungers during the day. It's just a little bit or paradise. My only downside was the amount of rubbish lying around. Maybe have a clean up every week...?

Stumbled across the place on my last day sadly. Had lunch here with my daughter and returned on my own for dinner. 11/10 for the lovely staff and service- cannot fault them at all. As for the food… delicious. Both lunch and dinner fresh, very tasty. It’s also a hotel right on the beautiful meno beach. Clean everywhere. As a solo, some restaurants try to push me into the corner areas, not here, they asked where I wanted to sit, which is a biggy for me- saves me having to get assertive for my rights, Next time, I’ll stay in the hotel too. Well done Angela-Sheffield UK

What an amazing time we had. The staff are lovely, helpful and friendly. The rooms are quiet clean and comfy. The food at the restaurant is amazing. it’s the best location on the island! The best! The only place you can step into the sea and turtles are swimming next to you! Absolutely amazing hotel. We will be coming back for sure!

Lovely chilled out hotel. We went for 2 nights staying in the candy villa. i loved the outside shower, though there was very little hot water and pressure but it was so warm it didn't matter. Food and service great, it was lovely sat on the waters age having dinner. Hotel spotless and they kept their section of the beach clean too. Harry was really helpful. Loved being able to just grab snorkels and we have never ever had a boat pick us up from outside a hotel. Beautiful island such a shame about all the rubbish.

We visited Gili Meno with three boys (ages 10,14,18) --the manager, Isnan (sp?) and the entire team were absolutely amazing. So caring and thoughtful. They are simply the best in terms of service and caring for guests. Congratulations to the whole team.
