Manta Dive Gili Air Resort

Great staff and clean, spacious room with outdoor bathroom. Highly recommend if you’re staying in Gili Air, especially if you’re planning to go scuba diving as well. We will be back for our next Gili Air trip

Это был шикарный отель ,с просторными номерами ,балкон с удобными лежаками .Ела очень вкусная ,бар на бассейне с улыбчивым персоналом .Обязательно вернусь снова

小園子房間不錯，都隱藏在葱鬱的植物裏。出酒店就可以浮潛看珊瑚，但是酒店居然一共衹有兩個吹風機。人家借了不還你就沒辦法吹頭髮。

화장실이 룸안에 있냐는 말이 예스라고 답을 들었습니다 과연 룸안에 화장실이 있었지만 실외에 위치한 공개된 화장실이었습니다 이색적이고 좋았습니다 위치도 항구랑 가까워서 좋았습니다 다만 동쪽이라 일출은 보기 줗지만 일몰 보기에는 좀 많이 걸어야합니다 화장실이 야외인만큼 개미나 곤충이 많이 있고 룸안으로 들어옵니다

This was our second visit to Manta Dive at Gili Air, and we are already booked to go again in six months' time. We stayed at their garden bungalow accommodation and dived every day with them. We're both dive instructors with a lot of diving experience, but are also both past retirement age and appreciated the extra care the boat staff and our dive guide Mul took with us. The air-conditioned accommodation is excellent, with bottles of drinking water in the room, to supplement the drinking water that is freely available in the outdoor reception area. The bed is comfortable, though for our liking the pillows are a little too thick and huge. There is a fridge and a safe and a semi-outdoors bathroom, with plentiful hot water and a laundry service is available. Each bungalow has a private outdoor verandah with a drying rack and seating. Bring mosquito spray for the evenings, as there is a plug-in insect repellant, but they are persistent! For early risers, the 6.30am sunrises over Lombok island are spectacular. We observed many try dives and Open Water and Advanced dive courses being taught by the patient, knowledgeable and relaxed but safety-conscious Manta Dive instructors. Rafi, Ayu and Mariana are only mentioned by name because we did not get the names of a couple of others, who were also exhibiting excellent practice. We don't think we have ever seen such careful attention paid to beginner divers in our 25 years+ diving. Nothing was too much trouble, and we are sure this is why divers of all experience come back time and again to Manta Dive. Last time we visited, we dived with an excellent guide named Opik. Unfortunately he was off sick this time, but our young guide Mul was an equally perceptive, attentive and welcome replacement. He worked for two weeks to ensure that every dive was an unforgettable experience. We saw white-tip sharks, turtles, blubberlip snappers, but even more amazing, considering one of us has fairly poor eyesight, were the seahorses, ****y scorpion fish, leaf fish and nudibranchs that he took infinite care and time to show us. Divers are placed in an experience-appropriate small group with a guide/instructor. Breakfast is included in the accommodation price, with muesli, fruit, yogurt, juice and coffee, or cooked alternatives. A simple but varied lunch is also available after the two dives in the morning. We are pushed to think of any negatives, except maybe, as everywhere on Gili Air, you could find a lot of smokers in the outdoor areas of the dive centre - you might want to position yourselves upwind!
