Reviewed By matbenhamI travelled to Gili Air to meet a friend this month. Indonesia has relaxed quarantine rules a lot and my main aim was to get to Gili Air. I was not disappointed. Despite obvious and tragic results for this magical island that Covid caused they are building themselves up again. I decided to do some diving. Having worked as a dive instructor and dived for fun around the world, with a huge number of dive resorts/shops, Oceans5 seemed like a good option. I am so glad I did! I have dived with some bad shops, but Oceans5 exceeded my expectations!!!! The shop is perfectly situated for ease of getting out into the ocean, it’s a 10 second walk to the boat! The super amazing dive sites are within 15-20 minutes on the organised and relaxed boat. Safety, which I believe is key, is paramount to this company, they have all emergency equipment (not that you’ll need it because everything is super safe) and the staff and boat crew are super helpful. If something did go wrong they are perfectly placed to sort it immediately! The diving is awesome, tons of sharks and huge turtles, awesome macro and fun wrecks to explore. The staff are simply incredible. I wanted to use nitrox for some of the deeper dives, so I managed to get a one on one super fun and cool instructor Irlando who took me out. But I dived with other staff too who were knowledgeable about the sites and where to find the small stuff. Huge huge HUGE shout out to all of the team because they made my trip more than incredible!!! The owner is incredibly friendly, helpful, and will do whatever he can to make sure your expectations are met. He makes sure that the dive sites are suited to everyone, from beginner to experienced, and we even got to choose our dive site. Obviously that has limitations but they do all they can to make you happy and give you a variety of sites to explore. It’s set up for newbies and pro’s, everyone is happy! Everything is set up for you, the staff do anything you want them to, (within reason) they are friendly, funny, super helpful and you will leave having had the best day! I cannot wait to return, I cannot praise this dive school enough. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE.

Awesome place, Awesome people!
Reviewed By FinPoOur experience here was one to remember. The accommodation is near perfect with everything you need to enjoy your holiday. The diving was also amazing at not only building our confidence but allowing us to witness beautiful marine life. The two dive guides (Musa and Margot) we’re patient and supportive and made us feel at ease in the water. Everyone involved around the resort were very helpful and always there if needed! Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to dive as well as have a chilled holiday on the Gili islands!:)

Reviewed By ClaaraaaaaaIf you're going to Gili A, this is where you're going to stay. I've just been here for a couple of nights (so long) but this is a GREAT place to stay at! In particular considering the low price. The staff is so nice - they're all so sweet and helpful! they serve good breakfast directly to the room and in general they're so nice. The rooms are so fresh and clean, the bathroom is half indoor and half outdoor but to me it didn't really matter. The location is great - it's near to everything and the gym is just right across the street. If I'm going back to Gili A I'm defenitely gonna stay here :)

Really great place to stay on Gili Air
Reviewed By SaraP3014Booked 4 nights here. Small simple room with two beds, AC (it was loud but didn’t bother us), toilet, shower (no hot water but you won’t need it because the water is warm anyway) and free wifi. Don’t expect much of the room in the homestay, good enough for us budget travellers who just needed a place to sleep. What’s really great about this place is that even though you book the cheap homestay, you get free breakfast every morning at the Villa Karang Hotel & Spa and you also get to use the pool there! Nice breakfast with beach view! Enjoy fresh fruit, coffee/tea, juice, toast, waffles, eggs/omelette, cereal... Location is perfect! From where you arrive with the boat it will take you approx 5 min to walk there. Check in is made at the Villa Karang Hotel & Spa reception. From there you have to walk like 5 min to get to the actual homestay which is sort of behind the hotel. Staff is super friendly(!!!!!) and will help you with anything and of course show you the way to your room! We liked Gili Air so much we decided to stay longer on the island and booked another 2 nights here. Well worth the money! I would definitely stay here again if I would do another budget trip to Gili Air!
