Reviews of Mowglis Gili Air 3 stars

I had a beautiful stay at Mowglis Gili Air. The staff were friendly, very attentive, kind, helped with whatever I needed and made a delicious breakfast. The room is very clean and cosy, bathroom very nice and new. All of their cats are also so so cuddly and cute!

I loved everything about this place (apart from being so close to the mosque and morning prayers) The staff were so friendly and included us in their birthday celebrations. The cabin was beautiful and attention to detail was fabulous

So close to the mosque and early morning prayers

The staff is extremly friendly, kind and helpful. We felt very comfortable. Its hard to explain but the vibe was just amazing. The room and bathroom is very clean. Many cute cats. We enjoyed staying here and definetly reccomend.

The design of the rooms and the inner courtyard makes it feels like your own little slice of jungle paradise. The true highlight though are the guys working there, they go out of their way to make sure you have an unforgettable stay. Nice pool area in a nearby property is an added bonus.

The mosque is nearby, which I knew beforehand and the staff also offered earplugs upon check in. Even with my own custom made earplugs I got woken up every morning. It wasn’t a big issue for me but it is worth noting for people with sleep issues. There are also many cats at the property, which I personally really liked but it could be an issue for people who don’t like animals.

When we checked into our room (bungalow 5), we immediately noticed several bed bugs in the bed, so the issue was quite serious. We reported the problem to the owner, who claimed the mattress would be replaced — but we saw that only the sheets were changed. We asked for a refund, but the owner said we would only get our money back if someone else booked the room. The only alternative offered was to move to another hotel (Pink Flamingo), which is under the same ownership, but we had to pay extra for that. It felt very unfair that our only choices were to pay more or lose our money. The owner didn’t seem to understand the seriousness of the situation and just said that bed bugs are "normal in the tropics." They also justified the extra charge by saying the other hotel had better facilities, like a swimming pool — but when we arrived there, the staff told us we could have used that pool for free anyway. I would never recommend this place. This was by far the worst experience we had during our entire trip to Indonesia.

This place felt like home! Ali and the team were attentive and readily available for any issues we experienced or queries we had. Balu the kitten was one of the highlights of our stay as we’re both missing our cat dearly. It’s clean, comfortable, and a lovely luxurious-feeling cabin, perfect for our stay on Gili Air.

We’re not sure what happened but someone came into our room at 4am one morning, leaving the door wide open. We think it might just be someone who got the wrong room but it certainly startled us.

The vibe here was the best since we had in a long time (we are long-term travelers). We were here for a week and immediately felt at home. It's in the way Ali, Yogi and Willy treated us as part of the family, the set-up of the place with big tables to have breakfast, the nice breakfast in the morning, the cute cats (Bule, Drakie, pops and moms) to cuddle and play with. We loved it!

Nothing!

It was so friendly and nice. They had small kittens. I love this place!

I had a really nice stay at Mowglies Gili Air. The place is tucked away in a quiet spot, just a short walk from the beach, which made it feel peaceful but still close enough to everything. The bungalows were clean, comfortable, and had a charming, simple style that fit well with the island vibe. The outdoor bathroom was a nice feature, and everything felt well-maintained. The staff were warm and helpful throughout my stay, always friendly and ready to assist if needed. Overall, it’s a lovely place to unwind for a few days on Gili Air. Nothing overly fancy, but clean, relaxed, and welcoming—just what you’d want for a chilled island getaway.

The staff was lovely. The little cheeky cat that came into the room and jumped on the bed. Had a good vibe

Did someone tell you that there is a mosque very close by?😜

Staff were very friendly, and there's a lovely communal environment. The huts / cabins are nicely done, with good AC. Breakfast was great, and guests have access to a swimming pool in a nearby accommodation. Very close to nice restaurants and the harbour.

Wouldn't recommend if you're a light sleeper - Mowglis is very close to the mosque, which has very loud calls to prayer late into the night and starting very early in the morning (3am, 5am). Unfortunately even with ear plugs we really struggled to sleep.

The staff was very kind and the breakfast felt like home!

The staff was amazing and made you feel like home with jamming nights and friendy welcome. The place itself was great, giving jungle vibes. Breakfast was also 10/10.

Mosquitos, but you cant avoid them anywhere 😄

Comfortable and clean rooms in a quiet location. Good breakfast and friendly staff.

Nothing.

Ali, omi and redo were all so welcoming- only stayed one night but wish I'd stayed longer! Ali helped me book a ferry ticket at a good price and had a lovely time chatting to the staff. Was easy to meet other guests and nice bar area for chilling. Room was super clean and nice. Amazing stay here!

Amazing place with amazing staff, everybody is so nice here and makes you feel like family. The staff is always so caring and you can spend time with them playing music especially in the night, it’s a wonderful experience to stay here ! I actually extended my stay here

Great vibe and great people making you feel like family from day one. Great breakfast and location as well.

I loved everything!
