How to get to Gili Air Gili Air is a small island to the north-west of the large island of Lombok, Central Indonesia (the territory of the nation of Indonesia extends over more than 13 thousand islands). In order to reach our atoll, you first need to get to Denpasar, administrative centre of Bali, the Indonesian island most famous for tourism, where all the major airlines land, includin Quantas, Thai, Garuda, Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, Malaysia Airlines. From the airport of Denpasar, it is just a 20-minute flight to the island of Lombok, with the airline Merpati which runs five daily return flights, or alternatively 2 hours by boat. Only two companies run international flights to the airport of Mataram on Lombok, and they are Singapore Airlines and Malaysia Airlines the first leaving from Singapore, and the latter from Kuala Lumpur. The ferries from Bali, running every hour in both directions, berth at Lombok's port: Lembar. Public transport, with taxis and regular buses (called bemo), will take you to Bangsal, the port from where connections with Gili Air island, leave. The journey can take between 30 minutes and an hour and a half. Our hotel can, in any case, arrange for you to be picked up in Lombok from anywhere on the island.
