The infrastructure on the Gili Islands is well-developed, especially for tourists, although the setup resembles a village. Here's what's available: supermarkets and shops, including chain stores like Coco, Alfamart, and M Mart, where you can buy water, drinks, snacks, and even clothing or electronics; ATMs and currency exchangesβthe exchange rate is slightly lower than in Bali, but the difference is not significant; travel agencies offering transfers, tours, and diving; restaurants and cafes to suit all tastes, from street warungs to establishments with sunset views. Prices in shops and cafes are a bit higher than on larger islands, but generally tolerable. For example, in a budget cafe, a dish like Nasi Goreng costs from 30,000 rupiah, and beer from 35,000 rupiah. Important: in some restaurants, menu prices may not include taxes and fees, so clarify by asking, "Is it the final price?" Motorized transport is prohibited, so people get around on foot, by bicycle, or in horse-drawn carts.
