We love all about Melmay. We felt very comfortable during our stay there. Staff are very polite and kind all the time. Most important room is very clean and nicely decorated, You are not directly on the beach which is actually good because it’s quite all the time but with beach is only some minutes by bike or walk. Also is very good distance to restaurants.

There was no fridge, safe, or hairdryer in the room which is the first time I’ve come across this in Bali, especially in this price range for rooms. These amenities would be very useful and perhaps could be provided in the future.

Great location on the northern side of the island - handy for both sunrise and sunset beaches. Staff were helpful. Great to have the water cooler for topping up our bottles.

The room is so beautiful with a massive comfortable bed ! Towels and pool towels provided as well. It’s so peaceful and quiet as they only have a few rooms , you feel like you are on a very relaxing holiday. The staff are incredible and the breakfast they provide is the best I’ve had. I would 100 percent recommend to stay here and would come back again in a heartbeat

5 stars for this place! I was there with my mum, and just a few minutes after we arrived, we already felt at home. The room was clean, and the decoration was tasteful and refined. The swimming pool was very much appreciated after some good sunbathing and snorkeling. It’s hard to describe the vibe of this place — it was just magical. There is only 5 rooms,quiet and peace place. Agun was so friendly and welcoming. All the staff took great care of us. The breakfast was delicious and generous Terimakassih 🫶🏼

The alley to get to the property is still to be developed. In the evening it's dark without any lights, no concrete road so in rainy season it gets muddy. It is on the norther part of the island which is less developed, however by bicycle it is super comfortable to access anything.

The staff is super friendly and helpful. The breakfast is tasty. It is few minutes walk from the sea, there are several bars, restaurants. The turtle beaches are basically next door.

The spotlessly clean rooms, the amazing staff, the delicious home made bread and yummy breakfasts. You will feel at home and luxuriate in the chic beach decor at this hip hideaway a short walk from amazing beaches and restaurants on Gili Air.

The room was very clean and cosy. Staff was very nice and helpful. This place is quiet and located next to the beach.

It is about a 30 minute walk from the port, which is pretty hard with a big backpack but there is still a dozen restaurants within a 15 minute walk and you can rent bikes at the property. We did have one gecko that came into our bathroom through the open windows ( no fan in the bathroom) but the staff were able to get it out quickly and easily.

The location was very peaceful - far from the morning mosque prayers and close to the beach. Really friendly staff and delicious breakfast. There were also some adorable cats living on the property (not strays). Clean rooms and clean pool

There were a few occasions when smoke wafted in from bonfires elsewhere but this didn't stop us from extending our stay to 9 days (from 5) and most of the time it was fine. And obviously not the fault of the property.

We really like the staff - they speak English too The pool was very nice. The room was comfortable and cool. The breakfast was varied It was quiet as we were a long way from the mosque. They have a water dispensing machine that does hot/cold/normal and a supply of tea and coffee available free of charge. They have a couple of friendly cats.

This place is nice and quiet. It is small and intimate and on walking distance to the beach. The houses are light and not humid. The staff is very supportive and friendly. Overall an excellent place to stay.

Staying at Melmay was a wonderfully intimate experience. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed by the warmth and natural friendliness of the team. The breakfasts featured homemade bread, the pool was refreshing, and the bungalow was clean and comfortable, equipped with Wi-Fi, air conditioning, hot water, a TV, and a fridge. With only four bungalows, Melmay offers a quiet and relaxing retreat. We look forward to returning and are thankful to the team for making our stay so special and memorable.

The only minor thing that is missing to make it truly perfect would be to offer some cocktails at the bar, by the pool 😄

Very nice, clean, and modern (we were there in December 2024). Very quiet too, as this is a fair distance from the mosque (it never woke us up). Very friendly staff. Four good breakfast options. We had an amazing stay. Thanks a lot.. Note, for those who care, the shower is on salt water, but not a problem for us. Pachamama restaurant that is just across the road is also fantastic.

Everything was great. :)

I cannot describe well enough in words how amazing stay I had in Melmay. It was definitely the nicest experience during my visit of Indonesia. Agung, Dady, Joe and Iwan are extremely helpful, make you feel very welcomed and they make sure you have everything you need. Also they have a cute kitten Koala. :) I felt there like at home and I wish I would not have to leave. There is a nice swimming pool where you can hang out. Breakfast are also very tasty, you can choose to have an omelette or smoothie bowl and during day you can have water, tea and coffee for free. Rooms are nicely decorated, there is silent A/C and you can ask to have the room cleaned every day. Also, it is conveniently located approximately 500 m from beach and turtle spot. There are 4 bungalows in total, so it foes not get too crowded either.

Really lovely place to stay, the pool was really nice. Everybody was super helpful, my husband got sick and they arranged for the doctors to come to the hotel. We where very grateful for the help and happy that we where in such a lovely place so he could recover.

Nothing everything was impeccable.

On arrival this property had such a chilled atmosphere. We were welcomed with some jamu, loaded with ginger and turmeric goodness, I felt relaxed immediately ❤️ staff need a mention, they made me and my daughter 9years feel so welcome, they made sure we were safe and have fantastic recommendations for days out. The breakfasts were something else! The banana and coconut smoothie bowl for me and specially requested banana pancakes for my daughter, all requests met with a smile! Truly memorable stay we will be back!!

The best of this accommodation is the great service and values of every person that works there. They make you feel at home from the moment you arrive until the moment you leave. Fantastic breakfast also.

I have just stayed at Melmay which has recently been renovated to a great standard. From the moment I checked in I felt right at home. The staff were amazing and accommodated to my every need. I went to watch sunrise as it is just down the road. I usually skip breakfast but I am glad I didn’t with this one. The scrambled eggs with homemade toast were fantastic. Highly recommend.

The problem with this place is that is totally overpriced. If it was announced as what it is, a simple, superficially renovated but totally decent bed and breakfast with good breakfast and no room service, it would be ok. It is a nice place. We just found the place overpriced, since we have stayed in catered villas with private pool for less. Is that perhaps the island price? If they adjust the price we would be happy to come again.

Superb and extremely friendly staff! They are such good hosts who are happy to help anytime. Great location and close by the beach. The pool.
