Last updated October 14, 2026

Tucked among coconut palms on peaceful Gili Meno, The Island Houses is a rustic-luxe escape that feels worlds away from everything. This charming retreat offers just two thatched-roof villas — Robinson House and Crusoe House — each designed to feel like your own private island hideout.

Both houses feature open-air living spaces, wooden furnishings, and tropical gardens with private pools. Interiors are warm and earthy, blending traditional design with a touch of vintage flair. There’s a small kitchen, plenty of outdoor lounging spots, and thoughtful details like four-poster beds and handmade textiles.

Mornings start with a fresh breakfast delivered to your terrace, and you’re only a short stroll from the beach. It's all about unplugging here — no distractions, no noise, just the sound of the breeze and the occasional gecko. The Island Houses are perfect for couples or solo travellers looking for that off-grid magic without sacrificing comfort.
