Mowies On The Beach

My stay was absolutely marvelous. The hotel is in front of the beach, the food was really good, the room was big, beautifully designed and thoughtfully detailed. But the best thing of all is the staff, always smiling and ready to help.

Beach access.

This place is amazing. A true island holiday. The staff were very attentive and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The amenities, rooms, décor, gardens, restaurant were all perfect. Had a great poke bowl for lunch, whilst reading a book on a daybed with shade on the beach. What more do you need when on vacation. All within your own hotel.

The team (especially the manager Bali) were very friendly and helpful (interesting thing was the men and boys had a lot more easy charm than the females). The location of the resort is fabulous- and the standard of international healthy food options was exceptional- I have travelled around six Indonesian 🇮🇩 islands and the Mowies menu was unique- and most enjoyable. My bungalow was set in lovely gardens and it was in a relatively peaceful area of Air - you do of course still get the distinct bass music sounds filtering through but they really aren’t intrusive. The restaurant on the beach is a very popular sunset chilling venue but the team willingly reserve tables or sunbeds etc for resort guests as a priority. Although I have made some comments about some improvements I would like to see I would most certainly choose Mowies when I visit Gili Air again. Bali (manager) was superb at really showing interest in helping guests to feel comfortable and cared for.

My bungalow (the only that was available was no 10 that had a bed and some bunk beds) I think is on the next phase of renovations. There was no wardrobe or anywhere to hang or place clothing, no bedside tables with charging points, no bedside lamps. Also the terrace would benefit from a rack or rail to dry swimwear etc and somewhere in the bathroom to hang towels is needed. Having paid a high season price I was expecting some higher interior standards of design.
