We loved staying at Utara Villas because it was convenient to all sorts of places and was away from the busyness. The service was spectacular and the staff were so kind. We received 5 star service.

Utara Villas was like an oasis. We spent 8 nights there while on Gili T and after walking in the hot sun all day being able to plunge into the provate salt water pool was absolute bliss! Staff were friendly and helpful and the villa was comfortable and spacious. We were told that Gili T was the party island, and we were worried we would be walking into another Ibiza or Magaluf. But that might depend on your definition of party. Yes, it's full of young people and there are plenty of bar and restaurant options. And yes, people are having a great time. But the atmosphere is relaxing and safe. There were no drunken or crowds or any obvious level of inappropriate behaviour at all. There were a couple of places that had pumping music, but mostly it was live acoustic music. Lots of outddor activites available too, not just in the sea but horse riding. There are no vehicles on the island so it is peaceful, although tourists on bikes can be a hazard! All up was a great few days on the island, and we couldn't recommend Utara Villas enough. Would almost go to the island again just to spend a few more nights in that pool!

We stayed at Utara for 3 nights leading up the the New Year. The service here was fantastic. Location was brillant as it was a hidden gem away from any business. We upgraded to the “Gold Honeymoon package” which included bicycles to get around on which was fabulous and very convenient, romantic dinner for 2, massage and a private snorkeling trip on a glass boat. Was very fun! Thank you for the amazing stay and excellent service. Highly recommend!

Staff where excellent, bed was super comfortable. Very private. It well for us but you are quite a distance from everything if you want to walk, overall for us it was perfect.

Nice private pool and room. Staff were friendly and always willing to help.

Our private pool villa was spacious and in a quiet part of the island, but still within easy reach of some good places to eat and drink. The breakfast was plentiful and cooked to order and served at the villa. The staff were very friendly and kept the villas and grounds clean. On the negative side of things, there was a damp problem on the lower part of the villa walls, which didn't detract from our stay, but looked a little unsightly. Although it's great to have the use of a bicycle during your stay, the bikes are very poor quality. Given the luxury marketing of this property, these should be upgraded. Also it was a shame the outdoor lounge area by the lobby wasn't operational as we would have liked somewhere to sit with a drink from the bar. The upstairs bar/restaurant has pool tables and was full of noisy youngsters so we walked straight out again. Overall, it was a nice place to stay, but I wouldn't have wanted to pay full price.

My husband and I just stayed here for 3 nights over our honeymoon and wish we could have stayed longer. The villas are gorgeous, very private and stunning with beautiful flowers and plants everywhere. The staff were so helpful (we love you ETA!) and gave us great recommendations. They organized a snorkeling tour for us that was one of our favorite days during our two week trip as we saw loads of gorgeous fish. Only regret not having a GoPro. This island is gorgeous and this is by far the most beautiful place to stay.

The place was overbooked and didn’t contact hotels them selves so we had to spent our vacation doing so.

room was big, clean and comfort. staff perform good as well. everything was perfect. except 2 thing need to be improve. 1) the taste of break-1st. 2) our villa just next to reception, every morning can clearly heard cooking sound and staff talking.

Lovely villa. Clean and spacious. A bit away from the busy side of the island which is what we wanted and they provided us with bikes anyway. All the staff were lovely. Thank you!

The service and overall appeal of the villa was excellent and a lot more spacious than we thought. The lunch and dinner menu/food was great - breakfast was so so. While there our air and WiFi was not working, which lead to some discomfort and frustration. The villa was in an area that did not have a party atmosphere, there was a lot of privacy and it was only a 5 min bike ride to see a beautiful sunset.

Beautiful villa that's in a perfect location. Only a few mins ride to the beach and far enough from all the crazy party scene. Very quiet at night. Really good experience.

Both my fiancé and I were pleasantly surprised to arrive at Utara during our stay on Gillis T. The property is a little off the main road but is very well maintained. Our room upon arrival was so very clean and smelled incredibly fresh. All our linens smelled like fresh lemons and our room even had an air freshener to our delight. The pool was deep enough to jump into and daily complimentary breakfast was served in our villa. Rather than providing separate water bottles, the resort intelligently supplied an entire jug of mineral water which was located in our room. This allowed us to refill our personal bottles and still have the option of having water for coffee and tea in our room. Upon checking in, staff provided us with a map and details about the island. The room had a folder containing information about activities, restaurants, and even common phrases in the the local language. Staff was incredibly friendly but not all were flights went in English. Towels were changed daily and a robe and pair of slippers were supplied to each guest. Complimentary bikes were also supplied for personal transportation along with a raincoat and flashlight for nighttime travel. An absolutely lovely experience. The only item I think that would benefit the resort is improving on the quality of their meals. Food was mediocre but was nicely presented. Absolutely recommend this resort if you don't mind being away from the main strip and enjoy peace and quiet.

Utara is off the charts AMAZING!!! I cannot recommend it more highly. The villas have everything that you can possibly want and you get 2 bikes with your villa. The staff are friendly and very helpful and they speak pretty good English. The beaches are fairly close, a short bike ride away. If you want to spoil yourself, stay at Utara Villlas.

These Villas are a little way away from the harbour or from the sunset view point, but easily reachable by horse or bike. The villas are peaceful, clean and create a perfect retreat. We loved our stay and the staff were more than helpful.

Beautiful luxury villa with all the trimmings. Bikes are provided for convenience as bicycle is the main transport on the island.
