Happy Village

Staff was amazing and the place was good. Nice outdoor bathroom and bed was comfortable. Have a kettle with coffee and tea as well.

Right next to the mosque and is loud in the mornings but it’s just part of being on the Gilis.

No esta mal pero nos quedamos en una habitacion simple con el baño exterior en el que evidentemente te puedes encontrar algunos animalitos. La otra habitacion (mas cara) es bastante mejor porque tiene el baño cubierto.

Esta muy cerca de la mezquita y la primera noche no pudimos dormir por los rezos. La segunda noche mejor porque te acostumbras un poco pero es algo a tener en cuenta. Des de luego que te llevas una experiencia inolvidable / autentica (si lo quieres ver de forma positiva) entre el baño exterior y esto hahahahha

Free water refill

The check-out time was never written anywhere on Booking (it just showed “00:00–00:00”), and then only one day before leaving we were told we had to check out at 10:00. Everywhere else I stayed in one month in Indonesia I had check-out at 12:00. The problem is not the early time itself, but that it was never written anywhere and the owner made absolutely no compromise. I even asked just to stay until 11:00, but she refused, saying new guests would arrive early. In reality, when we came back around 12:00 to get our forgotten bag, nobody had arrived. This shows she made zero effort to make her guests happy. The laundry service is also terrible. Several of my T-shirts came back died, with one having strange black stains that cannot be removed. Do not give them your clothes. We also forgot a bag with food and drinks in the room. About an hour and a half later we returned to pick it up, but it was already thrown away or given away. This bag included unopened cans and sealed snacks, clearly not just trash. Instead of quickly contacting us (she had our WhatsApp), she just got rid of it without asking. Extremely unprofessional. To top it off, at check-out the owner didn’t even say goodbye or look at me. The complete lack of basic politeness made it very clear that she is simply a terrible host. Overall: bad communication, unfriendly attitude, and no effort to make guests feel welcome. For the same price, we have already found a much better place on the island – with a pool, better service, and far friendlier hosts.

good location, bed comfortable, fridge in the room, aircon.

We booked here for five days. First, the host asked us to move in the other room at the second day, don't know what happened with the reservations. You sleep 50m away from the mosque, every morning 5am the prayer call and the roster around 7am are both very noisy. Bathroom not very clean and smell bad. It's just 2 units and not a real "village".

Very nice design and comfortable bed, good Ac

In short story - nice design of the room but not worth the SWAMP smell unless you in the Shrek vibes. And we’re not the so picky people, that place supposed to be a treat for us, one of the expansive places we booked so you can understand our vibe. In long story - Well, we arrive and no one was there to welcome us, i got a message how to check in ourselves and then we didn’t found the key to our room. After a while the host answered the phone and sounded like she forgot we’re staying at her place, then some other lady came to give us the keys. We got upgraded to the villa instead the bungalow because the situation. Until that point we were ok and pretty happy for the upgrade. Then we find out that there is no hot water, i it was only that it was ok but the smell was SO BAD we couldn’t stay for all the 4 nights we booked. The host told us on the phone to open the water for a while and it didn’t work. We gave it one night chance and left by the next morning. We asked for even partly refund but the host didn’t answered any of our messages after we left. And its not really a Village, its 2 rooms and was pretty weird to be there juts us.

Had a wonderful stay at Happy Village Homestay! Nena, the host, is absolutely lovely and professional, making sure everything is perfect. The rooms are nice and comfortable, with a fridge, air conditioning, and a water cooker. The bathrooms are clean, and the beautiful garden adds a lovely touch to the atmosphere. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend to anyone visiting!

Everything was perfect
