One of the few places to sleep on Gili Asahan; cottages are simple, bamboo affairs with outdoor bathrooms and a hammock on the porch. The 10 bungalows are chic, with polished concrete floors, soaring ceilings, gorgeous outdoor bathrooms and fabulous daybed swings on the wooden porches. There's great diving, kayaks and more.
