About this Island Retreat
A relaxed island-hopping escape — more chill than the Explorer
A slower, longer take on Bali and the Gilis for travellers who want to properly unwind. A gentle sweep through South Bali and Ubud, then three nights on the car-free Gili Islands with snorkelling, sunsets and nothing to rush for.
The return fast boat, transfers, handpicked stays and visa guidance are all handled. It's our relaxed alternative to the 7-day Gili Island Explorer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — the return fast-boat crossing between Bali and Gili Trawangan is part of the package, along with the transfers on both ends.
Snorkelling with turtles, cycling or pony-cart rides around the island, beach and hammock time, and sunset views — all at a wonderfully slow pace, with no cars or scooters.
