Family Private Villa Gili Trawangan — 5-10 Guest, Pool, Chef Service
The first light of day filters through the slatted teak shutters, carrying the scent of salt and night-blooming jasmine. From the terrace, the sound is elemental: the gentle lapping of the Bali Sea against white sand, just 30 meters away. A faint clink of porcelain comes from the kitchen, where your private chef is slicing mangosteen and passionfruit for the morning’s breakfast. This is the rhythm of arrival at your private villa on Gili Trawangan, a residence designed not as a place to stay, but as a space to inhabit completely.
This five-bedroom beachfront villa residence on the quiet northwestern coast of Gili Trawangan offers a discreet alternative to the island’s more populated southern shores. Designed for families, milestone celebrations, or groups of discerning friends, the estate accommodates between five and ten guests with a level of privacy and personalized service that defines the modern tropical escape. The property is a composition of local materials and contemporary design—polished terrazzo floors cool underfoot, alang-alang grass roofs insulate against the midday sun, and floor-to-ceiling glass walls slide away to dissolve the boundary between the living spaces and the Lombok Strait beyond. At the heart of the estate is a 15-meter saltwater infinity pool, its turquoise surface mirroring the sky and the distant, 3,726-meter peak of Mount Rinjani on Lombok. See also: Contact pricing.
A Fully Serviced Gili Trawangan Residence
A stay with the Gili Trawangan Private Villa Collection is managed with the seamless attention of a private household. Our permanent staff, including a villa manager, private chef, and daily housekeepers, are dedicated exclusively to your residence. Their presence is intuitive—there when you need them, invisible when you do not. This is the core of our philosophy for a superior *private villa Gili T* experience. See also: book Home.
Our villa maintains a dedicated team of four staff members for a maximum of ten guests, ensuring a ratio of at least 1:2.5. This allows for highly personalized and responsive service, from culinary requests to activity planning. See also: time gili trawangan.
Your stay includes a comprehensive suite of services designed to remove every friction point of travel:
- Private Chef Service: Your chef is skilled in both Indonesian and Western cuisines, sourcing ingredients daily from the Gili Trawangan Harbour market and organic farms on Lombok. All dietary requirements are catered for with advance consultation.
- Daily Housekeeping & Turndown Service: The residence is maintained to an exacting standard twice daily, with fresh linens, replenished amenities, and an evening turndown service that prepares the villa for a restful night.
- Personal Concierge: Your villa manager acts as your personal concierge, arranging everything from private turtle-spotting snorkeling trips departing directly from your beach to in-villa spa treatments and dinner reservations at Scallywags Seafood Bar & Grill.
- Return Fast Boat & Cidomo Transfers: We coordinate seamless transfers, including tickets for the Gili Getaway fast boat from Teluk Nare, Lombok, and a private *cidomo* (horse-drawn cart) to greet you upon arrival at the Gili Trawangan jetty.
A Curated Day on Gili Trawangan
While the essence of a stay is unstructured freedom, a day at this *beachfront villa Gili* can unfold with a certain effortless grace. The rhythm is yours to set, but a typical day might look like this, guided by the sun and tides. See also: this beachfront villa collection.
8:00 AM: Awaken to the aroma of freshly brewed Lombok coffee. Breakfast is served on the poolside bale bengong: a platter of tropical fruits, house-made granola, and eggs prepared to your preference, perhaps as a classic Nasi Goreng.
10:00 AM: A private boat, arranged by your concierge, awaits at the beach. You’ll spend the morning exploring the Gili Islands’ famed dive sites, like Shark Point, or snorkeling above Jason deCaires Taylor’s underwater ‘Nest’ sculpture off Gili Meno, a five-minute boat ride away.
1:00 PM: Return to the villa for a light lunch. The chef presents grilled red snapper, caught that morning, served with a sambal matah and organic greens. The children enjoy freshly made pasta or satay ayam.
3:00 PM: The afternoon is for repose. Perhaps a massage from a therapist from the local Gili Yoga studio, set up in the shade of the garden’s frangipani trees. Others might cycle the island’s 7-kilometer coastal path, a leisurely 45-minute ride on the villa’s provided bicycles.
6:00 PM: Cocktails are served as the sun descends behind Bali’s Mount Agung. This is the golden hour, best enjoyed from the sun loungers or the shallow end of the pool. The sky over the Lombok Strait shifts from gold to deep violet.
8:00 PM: Dinner is a private affair. The chef prepares a traditional Sasak Rijsttafel, a celebratory meal of multiple small dishes from across Lombok, served family-style at the grand 10-seat teak dining table.
Absolutely. We can organize sandcastle building kits, shallow-water snorkeling lessons with a certified PADI instructor, horseback riding along the beach, and even a cooking class with our chef focusing on simple Indonesian sweets.
