BUKIT GARDEN

Very friendly owner.

Not the best facilities, aircondition isnt the best.

Had a wonderful stay at Bukit, booked two nights ended up staying a week. Cute homestay ran by a lovely family! Wifi and Aircon works well, whenever something weren’t working they were super quick fixing it. The location is good, away from party street but not too far away. Will definitely stay here next time! sempai jumpa lagi!

It’s close to the mosque so you’ll hear it in the morning, didn’t bother me too much though.

No hot water no Lightning and no service for nothing

Lovely and very welcoming host, great location - 5 minutes from beach front and port. Also has a lovely porch to sit out on. Comfortable stay

problems with hot water

The host is excellent - we arrived very early but this was no problem as he had the room cleaned and ready in advance. He also offered help to get a boat from Gili T to Bali (don’t take this but it was generous help) and carried my bag all the way to the harbour. The room is very basic but met all our needs with aircon, towels etc.

I highly recommend NOT to take the boat to Bali the host helps you to get (he may not be aware of the poor quality so his help is generous) The following info is about this boat/transfer service not the host but is reverent if you are planning to ask for transfer help from the host. It is called Invinia and was a transfer from Gili T to Ubud. It was 350k per person + 10k per person tax. The boat was small enough, with everyone in the bottom deck - if the windows were open we all got soaked. If closed, there was no air, no aircon. One of the windows seemed to come off and only when a huge wave soaked that side did the staff try to fix it (by trying to put a life jacket against it!!). The boat itself felt it was going to split in two, with a small swell it shouldn’t have felt so scary. This boat also went to Gili Air and Lombok, which added an extra hour to our journey. On arrival at the harbour we had people almost coming in the window of the boat to us shouting about bus transfers. They asked to see tickets and demanded to know the transfer company. If you are going with this package DO NOT give anyone your ticket and follow the directions to the bus transfer without engaging with them. Over than this the only downside of the homestay was we got no breakfast. We were awake from 7.30am waiting as he said he would help us with the transfer but we did not see him until 9.30am. He said he would bring us straightaway, which we thought meant the boat was soon. It wasn’t until 11.30am, which meant we had to buy breakfast.

I had the most amazing stay at Bukit Garden. I travelled alone to Gili but was quickly made to feel at home by Agus and his family. His wife and children are amazing and very cute. They provided breakfast for me every morning, the banana pancakes were so good! Location is great, only a 5 min walk from the harbour, tucked behind a few back roads so is quiet away from the noise but also a very short walk / cycle to the main strip with all the restaurants and bars. Definitely would recommend and I will be coming back when I’m next in Gili. Great value for money, a budget room for a budget price, can rent bikes, do laundry and there is a little shop right next door to get anything you need. Had the perfect stay, please support this lovely family with your stay and they will make sure you have the best time in Gili. Agus even made sure to help me book my boat back to Bali and waved me off at the harbour, after helping me with my bags there. Such a kind family you are staying with. A wonderful stay.

The room is very spacious, clean and had everything we needed. The hosts are a lovely family, they really make the place they are so friendly and helpful with anything you need! Would highly recommend a stay here, real bargain for money 😊
