Really lovely, amazing location. Gili Asahan is so peaceful. Great staff, very helpful, great with the kids. Great breakfast menu for those wanting to be healthy (eg detox smoothies) and nice food overall. Nice sandy beach, with some broken coral (bring the right footwear!) kids loved building sandcastles, swimming, snorkeling just a few hundred metres along the beach! Small fridge in the room. Free snorkel gear, kayaks, paddle boards. Scuba school 10 mins walk round island, they'll pick you up in the boat. Villa steps from the beach was fabulous! Photos were fair representation.

A little expensive for drinks and food. Restaurants at hotels either side edged it on food options (but also nice to have such choices). Water for showers slightly salty, but part of being on a small island. 2 bedroom villa is 2 separate double bed units sharing a veranda - lovely, but not quite what I'd expected. Kids preferred pancakes (crepes) next door! :-)

Beautifully designed little hotel! Lovely traditional hut with gekko ceiling, large outdoorish bathroom, lovely terrace even during rain. Loved the icebath. Lovely staff! Great location, short walk to good snorkeling. Ecolodge ponies next door! We much preferred Asahan to Gede!

Big minus for not having mattress protection- only a thin sheet. We resolved this by leaving the quiltcover under us..Also gekko droppings in bed because no ” ceiling” or mosquito netting on the four posterbed. Also running out on milk and chicken was a bit curious.

Comfortable beds, spacious and clean room, nice garden and good overall atmosphere. We were there end of march, it was very quite. Breakfast is excellent, smoothie bowls, eggs, tea, coffee, fancy juice options. best coffee on the island. We had also great grilled fish at the restaurant. Yoga shala is nice with equipments, but no yoga classes. Cold plunge was not super cold, around 15 degree, sauna also good quality, but takes 30-40 min to heat up. You can use them any time you want. The island is full of families with small kids, super safe. They also have a cool boat with rooftop deck that can take you for snorkeling trip for extra charge. The reef is not it the best shape but there is a blue coral type that is unique in the area. There are kajaks and SUPs, also very good quality that you can use any time for free.

The smell of the soap and shower gel. ;)

Great, beautiful and comfortable accommodation in Gili Asahan. The bungalow was clean and beautiful and so was the bathroom. The resort is right in front of the beach with SUP boards available. The restaurant was also lovely and breakfast was great. The staff was really nice and super helpful, they helped us getting a transfer to the hotel and the boat to Gili Asahan was waiting for us when we arrived, although it was already a bit late. They also received us with welcome drinks which is always a nice touch. Beautiful beach right in front of the hotel. Thank you Mita for all your support! Highly recommend this place to stay in Gili Asahan 😊

VAYAM’s location is nothing short of perfect. They are tucked on the south coast of Gili Asahan where boats can dock, the wind isn’t too strong and right by some restaurants & small town which are super accessible if you are looking for some alternatives. The hotel itself is an experience! We stayed in a triangle bungalow with views directly to the sea, it was always clean, had very comfortable beds, great shade curtains for the kids and fantastic outdoor shower that was large enough for the whole family to fit. Amenities & facilities: We also took advantage of the ice bath many times a day as well as the yoga shala where the kids and parents can practice - and the babies have enough space to crawl. Low season was actually perfect for us as we had the entire place to ourselves! We loved that we could also use the stand up paddles and kayaks whenever we needed to head out to do short snorkeling trips. We also did a snorkel tour to the neighboring islands and VAYAM packed a wonderful fruit and drinks cooler with towels & all the snorkeling gear we needed (including for the kids!). It was truly magical. The best part about this whole resort is honestly the staff. We celebrated my birthday at the resort and they made the most wonderful little celebration with the entire staff coming out to sing, decorate our room and sing a birthday song. I was truly grateful! The greenskeeper / boat driver was also always making sure the place was in tip top shape! The florals are incredible here. The housekeeping always knew when to come in/out and replace our towels etc. And the rest of the staff were just incredibly attentive to our needs and knew all of our names by the end - I honestly felt so sad when we left. I did feel at the end, it was like being amongst one big family ❤️

Nothing. Would have been nice with a pool but we were able to use the pool next door so it wasn’t a big deal.

Location on sunset side of island with good snorkeling just 20 meters away. Great staff!! Beautifully appointed restaurant with very delish breakfast included. Try tuna salad for lunch. Yum! Very reasonable menu prices. A/C in all glass enclosed grass huts. Infrared sauna and yoga space available. I’m gonna miss this oasis.

Beautiful cottages. Great staff. Water sport gear is in great condition. Good food. Nice coffees. Family friendly.

The brochure listed spa treatments and menu items that were not available. You need to remind staff to turn on the sauna about 30 prior to using it. The good snorkeling spots require a short kayak trip which can be challenging on windy days. Super easy on calm days.

Definitely stay here if you're going to Gili Asahan! Beautiful boutique family-owned beachside hotel with great rooms, chef-designed menu, incredible facilities including on-site massage and free kayaks and paddleboard hire. The hotel also arranges snorkelling tours to the local secret Gili islands, and we swam with fish and turtles - stunning. There aren't many hotels on Gili Asahan and this seemed to be the best, most modern one by far.

I loved everything in this place, the huts are lovely, spacious and beautifully decorated, the bathroom is huge, lots of storage, the bed is very comfortable. Restaurant and breakfast was delicious, everything is a feast for the eyes here. Staff is a bit reserved but always nice and helpful. Would definitely love to go back in this little paradise.

Our family had a lovely relaxed time at Vayam Boutique Resort. We stayed 2 bed rooms cottage, it was very cozy and we love the large veranda. I enjoyed yoga in the yoga Shala with mats provided. We had great swimming in front of resort, easy walk to snorkelling spots and we really enjoyed island tour by speed boat from vayam. Staff were friendly and accommodating,my kids really love them!
