My family and I just spent a week in Gili Trawangan. We choose to stay at Vila Ombak just because of the Diving Academy and we were not desappointed. All of us dove with Awie 5 times and more for my husband and we felt very safe with him. We saw a lot of fishes, turtlesss, lobsters, clown fish, etc...... More

Didn't stay at Vila Ombak, but heard that it was the place to go if you wanted to hire out a glass-bottom boat and do some snorkeling. So that's exactly what we did. It only cost us about $80 for a couple of hours for the boat and our very own guide. He took us out to Gili Meno to... More

Friendly staff but equipment quite old. 2/3 divers tanks slipped out of the BCD on entry (they either slipped or weren't secured properly). I felt a bit rushed as the dive site was really close & we should have been better prepared for it. (Our responsibility too!) The set up is professional and at about £26 a dive it is... More
