Gili Palms Resort

Tucked along a quiet lane just off the main beach road, Gili Palms Resort is a small, intimate property with air-conditioned bungalows that overlook the tropical garden and pool. The 3-star resort is rated 9.0 on Booking.com and sits within a 2-minute walk of North East Beach, making it a practical base for snorkeling and diving. All rooms face the pool and include a balcony, terrace, or patio, with garden or pool views; the Deluxe Double Room and Deluxe Twin Room feature semi-open shower designs in the private bathroom. A saltwater swimming pool, open all year, is located steps from the rooms, with sun loungers and beach chairs provided. Complimentary Wi-Fi is accessible throughout the property, and the 24-hour front desk offers express check-in/check-out, currency exchange, and luggage storage. Breakfast is served daily in the room with continental, à la carte, halal, and Asian options, including warm dishes, juice, pancakes, cheese, and fruits. At Gili Palms Resort, guests can rent bicycles on-site or arrange scuba diving, surfing, and mini-golf through the tour desk. The property also provides laundry services, airport shuttle arrangements, and a shared lounge with a TV. Located on Gili Trawangan, a 15-minute walk from the harbour and a 20-minute walk from sunset beach, Gili Palms Resort is also within a 10-15-minute stroll to the busy restaurant area, while remaining far enough from the main entertainment strip to avoid noise from bars and the mosque. The surrounding area includes Gili Trawangan Market, Turtle Hatchery, and Sira Beach, with no vehicles permitted on the island, which contributes to the quiet, peaceful setting noted by guests.
