Bask Gili Meno

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

On a small island where the pace is set by tides and trade winds, Bask Gili Meno has built a dining destination that earns recognition well beyond its remote coordinates. The resort's Restaurant & Bar holds a 2024 Wine Spectator Award of Excellence — a distinction that speaks to the seriousness of its wine program in a setting that could easily have settled for something far more casual.

Beachfront dining, from morning to midnight

Overlooking the sea and connected to the Beach Club, the Restaurant & Bar is designed to move with the day. The open kitchen anchors the space, where fire and flame drive the cooking: fresh fish arrives daily and travels quickly from sea to kitchen, proteins are cooked over open heat, and bread is baked fresh each morning. Flame-cooked steaks, wood-fired pizza, and lighter coastal plates share the menu — a Mediterranean and steakhouse sensibility shaped by seasonal produce and the island's coastal character. Slow mornings, long lunches, and sunset dinners all find their natural rhythm here.

Wine with genuine depth

The wine program is more than a list. Guided by experienced sommeliers, intimate tasting experiences walk guests through a curated selection of international wines, with attention to provenance, varietals, and craftsmanship. Sessions are held in small groups to keep things conversational and unhurried, and private, bespoke tastings can be arranged with pairings developed alongside the culinary team. It is this commitment — Mediterranean and steakhouse cooking matched with a considered wine culture — that earned the Wine Spectator recognition.

Beyond the main dining room

Beneath the resort, Rosalee offers a late-night counterpoint: candlelit, low-ceilinged, with cocktails finished with flame and unexpected ingredients. A glass-lined pool window adds quiet theatre to the space. For something livelier, Pomona brings South American open-fire cooking and shared plates to the shoreline, rooted in Latin flavour and island energy. Together, these venues form a cohesive dining world that makes Bask Gili Meno worth the boat ride out.
