We have just returned from 4 nights in Mowies, where we paid for a ‘seaside superior bungalow’. We stayed at Mowies towards the end of our trip in Indonesia, where we’d been lucky enough to stay in some very nice hotels. We therefore felt a little underwhelmed upon check in. Firstly the location, staff, bar and restaurant area were all very very good. The bungalows are just across from the beach, which is perfect for sunsets and Mowies serves great food and drinks (the quality and presentation of the food and drinks was probably some of the best we’d experienced in Indonesia, and therefore we agree it deserves a slightly higher price, but honestly wasn’t much more!). Lots of other guests visit Mowies to use their bar/restaurant services, and we enjoyed being able to walk minutes to a huge variety of other options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on the beautiful island also. The bungalow itself is where we were disappointed. I appreciate you don’t come on holiday to sit in your room, but equally it just felt rather basic… The room was fairly dark with a damp smell, and of the 4 windows, only 1 (the main sliding door) had a curtain, meaning we had to wear an eye mask to be in darkness. The room was provided with one small wardrobe, meaning we were limited on space for our clothes, there was also no kettle or space for tea/coffee. The towels we were provided in the bathroom weren’t changed during our stay either, making them rather smelly towards the end of our visit! We would 100% return to Gili Air and felt it was the perfect mix of beauty and facilities, however I feel we’d choose to stay elsewhere and only visit Mowies for dinner/drinks during our stay. For fast boats to/from Bali and Lombok, we’d recommend the Golden Queen. Very comfortable (lots of seats and ventilation) and only an hour behind schedule.
