Guest Reviews
- AMY (10/5): Totally grand…would 100% and more recommend it. Please tip your staff! - Perfect location…beach is right there very easy walk to the port area. Staff was exceptional! Extended my stay twice it was so good it was hard to leave. Nothing…it was perfect.
- Charles (7/5): -
- Michael (10/5): Great seafront location in Gili T - Great location
Cosy bungalow
Super friendly staff -
- Fatma (10/5): Super Accueil avec une super équipe - Le personnel était très accueillant ils m'ont permis vraiment de passer un bon séjour. Certes ce ne sera pas le meilleur Hotel de Gili mais j'ai vraiment pu m'y sentir comme chez moi

- Woodward (8/5): - Good sized cottage, air con and wifi good, breakfast fine, people very nice. Actuall stayed 4 nights, and would have added 5-10 but for indonesias 30 day visas. Have tables and lounges on the beach, but accommodations are set back. Good location, maybe 1 km walk to the port/nightlife area. A keeper! The morning coffee
- Sytse (8/5): Nice location, breakfast on the beach - The staff, they are all very kind, really incredible
- Donna (1/5): -
- Ingrid (9/5): swim with turtles - Great location just outside of the bussier part but close enough for a stroll into 'town'. Right on the beach with the best opportunity to swim amongst the turtles. That was amazing!
- Erik (8/5): - Super Lage,abseits des Trubels. Leckeres Frühstück direkt am Strand. Sehr gute Lage auch um direkt vorne am Strand zu Schnorcheln und Schildkröten zu sehen. Nix
- rosa anna (6/5): - La posizione Non c’è reception, acqua fredda, e non rifanno mai la stanza
- Maryna (10/5): I’d definitely stay here again - Easy to get to “downtown” of Gili T. Very cozy bungalow, delicious breakfast, friendly neighbourhood and friendly personal It has matched my preferences
- Julieta (10/5): -
- Magdalena (7/5): Good stay! - The breakfast in the beach is nice, it is almost in front of the turtles point, so it's perfect for snorkelling. The bed was comfortable The bathroom is outdoors, so there were many insects, and I felt lack of privacy. The sink needs to be fixed.
- Nadine (8/5): - Die Unterkunft selbst bietet einen Wasserspender, ein sehr bequemes Bett und großes Bad. Alles war sauber. Der Strand vor der Haustür ist wunderbar und der Service herzlich.
- Patrick (9/5): -
- serena canuti (8/5): Coccolata! - Buona struttura per i servizi e la posizione.Un ringraziamento speciale per il ragazzo che serve la colazione e il servizio spiaggia, veramente attento gentile paziente e disponibile! La pulizia migliorabile
- BELUCHA21 (8/5): - la isla es un sueño, el hotel precio-calidad es excelente, la zona ideal para estar cerca de los bares pero no tanto, está en la playa de las tortugas, se ve el amanecer desde ahi , te ofrecen sombrilla y reposeras sin tener que consumir, aunque igual consumis porque es rico y muy buen precio . me sorprendió el desayuno, se puede elegir que tomar, frutas o jugo y huevos revueltos y panqueques de varios tipos, te lo llevan a la mesa q está sobre la arena, asique es un sueño.
la hab es basica pero grande y muy linda, baño semi abierto sin agua caliente pero no se necesita. Buen wi fi y un dispenser en la hab de agra fria-caliente que me sorprendió y me parecio excelente idea faltaria algun mueble o mesita para apoyar la ropa o la mochila ya que tiene solo una mesita de luz, y una escoba tambien pero nada mas.
No te asustes con la recepción se ve precaria porque es un kiosco pero la gente es divina y la hab muy buena
- Robin (10/5): Heerlijk! - Hele leuke huisjes ! Beetje achterin
Dus ietsje weg van de herrie!
Fijn ontbijt op het strand! En gratis gebruik van de strandbedjes.
Lieve mensen! Niets
Misschien de entree
Dat is er even doorheen kijken
- matthew (10/5): -
- Caroline Lucja (7/5): Gilli T Melati Cottage - Kleine Cottages mit einfacher Ausstattung in der Nähe des Strandes. Außerhalb des Trubels und daher nicht sehr laut. Einfaches, aber leckeres Frühstück direkt am Strand. Personal sehr freundlich. Der Zugang erfolgt durch eine Baustelle, nicht sehr einladend. Kein warmes Wasser!!! Cottage nicht dicht, hatten nachts Besuch von einer Maus/Ratte.
- Federica (10/5): A casa in paradiso - Il Melati è un posto bellissimo davanti alla spiaggia delle tartarughe, una delle migliori di Gili T. Il personale era gentile e amichevole, Tony è ancora nel mio cuore! I bungalow sono molto grandi, perfetti per due creatori di disordine come noi! Il giardino è piacevole e silenzioso, sembra davvero di stare a casa.
Fanno anche la pizza nel forno a legna! E mettono a disposizione un phon per i capelli. Non c'era acqua calda (ma comunque non serviva visto che faceva molto caldo. Solo di sera ci avrebb3 fatto piacere qualche grado in piu)
- Brookland (8/5): Ideal position. Great staff. - Close to the beach, staff were great. Breakfast was ideal on the beach. No fridge, aircon unit leaked over the floor beside the toilet continually.
- Ryan (9/5): Beautiful place, great location, peacful - Location is great, staff are super friendly and helpful. The bungalow itself is beautiful. Definitely a vibe to stay in. Peaceful and quiet. Just far enough out of town but just close enough too. Turtles everywhere Mosquitio net could have been bigger for the bed, wouldnt have worked if there were two people.
Some of the rooms have older a/c units which hopefully you don't get. I had an old unit but they moved me. Some of the beds in the rooms aren't completely flat either, again you might have to switch rooms. I feel like they could fix this pretty easily.
- Jessica (8/5): -
- Gaston (5/5): - L’emplacement est top, les chambres sont correctes L’accueil était moyen. Il faut partir du principe que vous n’avez réservé qu’une chambre pas le service qui va avec. Sinon cela reste raisonnable.
- Witold (8/5): - Gute Lage, viel platz Wenig Licht, duschbereich offen. Beim duschen wir kompletten Badezimmer nass.
- Ugnius (10/5): -
- Verified traveler (6/5): - 방에 가구가 침대만 달랑 있어서 물건보관하기 불편. 나무로 된 집인데 여기저기 구멍이 있어 벌레가 들어오기 쉬운 구조.
하지만 벌레는 없었고 직원들이 순박하고 친절
- Shishir (7/5): Good - adjacent to beach, breakfast was good, staff was ok, spacious rooms
- Mohamed (6/5): Pleasant -
- Fabiana (10/5): Adorável quarto numa ilha fenomenal - A atenção dos funcionários e sua simpatia foram o diferencial na minha hospedagem. O sinal do Wi-Fi dos quartos é horrível e precisa melhorar muito. Não tem água quente como muito dos hotéis da ilha. Mas devido ao calor, isso não foi um problema. Localização próxima do centro, mas não tão perto.
- Peter (7/5): Good -
- Jakub (9/5): Great value for money. Very helpful staff - Great value for money. Very helpful staff
- Peter (8/5): Very good - Great breakfast on beach. Great staff
- Anastasiya (9/5): Superb - Such a close place to the beach, tasty breakfast, friendly staff. Amazing snorkeling spot! It was a bit noisy due to reconstructions next to the house.
- Andrea (10/5): Everything was great!!! - The location is great, the food is great and the staff is extremely friendly.
- Jill (4/5): Cheap and side of beach - Cheap as chips so near beach , outdoor bathroom and decent air con great for budget traveller Not mega clean never saw staff except check in but the guy was chilled
- Tamati (5/5): Passable - Good location and on a quieter area of Gili T but close enough to bike to the restaurants and bars Very very basic. There is only cold water and it’s quite rundown. Towels were threadbare like that had been washed every day and every man and his dog has dried their arse on it. Mosquito nets are yellow and filthy and don’t cover you. Doors don’t close property so you need to spray yourself with mosquito repellent. Suited our needs as first time visitor’s but wouldn’t go back. Staff were lovely but all high on drugs.
- Scrase (8/5): Very good -
- Beatriz (7/5): Good -
- Carter (1/5): Bad - This place was like hell on earth. I would not stay here if you paid me. When we arrived there was no toilet paper and the staff took over 1 hour to bring some. Then my partner went to get food and had to lock me inside the room because the door could not close without key locking and swung open letting mosquitoes inside. The back door to the bathroom did not lock at all or even close properly. After one hour the room was so hot inside even with Air conditioning on full and did not cool down at all. I had to call the Dr from heat stroke! I requested to change rooms and the second room, the air conditioning also was so old and weak and did nothing. We had to get frozen water bottles to cool down from the heat! There was cockroaches on the floor and the water in the tap did not work unless you turned it on under the sink and then if dripped. There was only cold water. It was worse then a jail cell. Then in the second room the bed completely fell apart! At this stage I could not stay any longer and had to pay for a new accommodation last minute and then pay for transport to move. Now the property is refusing to refund my money even though I spoke with the manager before I left and discussed all the problems and he agreed to refund me though booking.com. Now they are calling me a liar and making every excuse not to give me my money back even though I did not stay a single night! It is the worst accommodation I have ever stayed in. The staff are high on drugs and don't understand English and are so lazy and the manager is rude and a total scammer. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! YOU WILL REGRET STAYING HERE! EVERYTHING
- Mariana (9/5): Great value for money - They have their own private beach, one of the best on the island. You can do snorkeling and see turtles every day. It’s close to the party area (10 minutes walking) but in the same time far enough to sleep well during the night. No hot water
- Mariana (9/5): Great value for money - I was a little bit disappointed at the beginning because it’s not a real hotel and there is no reception area (only independent bungalows). But the stuff s really friendly and they do their best to help you with anything you need. They have their own private beach which very few hotels have and this was a real plus because you can hang all day long for free on the beach chairs. The beach area is one of the nicest on this island. You can do snorkeling and see turtles every day (especially in the afternoon). It’s close enough to the party zone, 10 minutes walking but in the same time far enough so you can sleep well during the night. They don’t have hot water. The water in a good to have a shower but if you want to wash your hair this might be a problem.
- Kha (8/5): Very good -
- Bellotti (10/5): - Struttura semplice e senza pretese , staff di servizio gentilissimo e sempre disponibile . Camere in boungalow spaziosi. Posizione ottima fronte mare nel punto segnalato come “turtle point” ( infatti e’ possibile vederle quotidianamente più volte )
Tratto di spiaggia attrezzato con sdraio e ristorante per colazione e pranzo (comodo e buono ) . Affitto di maschere e bici comodo .
Noi siamo stati bene 😊
- Karolina (7/5): Good - Very close to the beach, great location through the garden Water in sink didn’t work that’s very minor
- Agrima (6/5): Pleasant - Stay is comfortable however we were intimated about no hot water only a week prior to our scheduled stay. Average property. Good for budget stay.
- Sarra (7/5): Good - You can have your breakfast on the beach. It’s under construction but there is no mention of it on booking. They Don’t clean the room. You don’t receive any indication about anything during your checking.
- Mutlu (8/5): Very good - Staff is very helpful and friendly. Location is great, the hotel has a wonderful beach in front and the sun chairs are free for hotel customers. Room cleaning is a little bit unefficient. And fumes from the pizza oven is all over the place however all the island has this problem.
- Ziortza (8/5): Very good -
- Allen (9/5): Superb -
- Allen (9/5): Superb -
- Gatica (8/5): Peaceful and quiet place - It is a quiet place, far from the noise of the busy area of the island. Rustic and authentic according to the context.
All the staff is kind and offering to help with everything.
- Zackery (9/5): Really cool bungalow with great location (not right in the centre of party and near a GREAT snorkeling spot). - The location is near turtle point. I saw turtles every day.
Staff was really cool and chill!
Always ready when you needed help with something
- Aditi (6/5): Pleasant - The locals who run the place were really nice. The location is perfect, in a quiet location, right next to the turtle point. The cottage had musty smell.
- Amanda (10/5): I would book here again! - AC worked well. Spacious room. Nice seating area outside your room. The rooms weren’t located on beach BUT they do have a restaurant that has beach chairs for you to use. The turtles swim in that area. It is ideally located on the quieter side of Gili T. We didn’t hear any music so you will get a good nights sleep. Staff was excellent! They were all very friendly and willing to help with anything you needed.
- Mellisa (7/5): Great location, good value for money needs a little TLC. - The location is prime to the beach No TV, No Fridge, air conditioner didn’t really work
Leaking aircon drips on you whilst your sitting on the toilet
- Vanessa (9/5): Superb -
- Reffik (8/5): Value for money. - Value for money. I rented a small house for little money and it was like 150 meters to the beautiful beach. The ocean there was beautiful with lots of sea turtles. No safety box but it was very safe though.
- Claire (6/5): Lovely concept, needs lots of work done around it & inside. - Location was great. Good air con in all 4 room. Shower was freezing. Lots of holes in mosquito net. Had to walk through a building site to get to it. Lights not very bright in room.
- Katie (8/5): Very good - Great location and the staff are lovely!!
- Vidmante (10/5): Exceptional -
- Matthew (8/5): Amazing chilled time!! - Great location, very quiet, clean, comfortable
Staff were amazing, really helpful, easy bike rent straight from Melati to your cottage door.
Tom gave me coke fresh coconut and fresh mango from the tree outside my door😍😍
- Hamza (6/5): Pleasant -
- Kevin (7/5): Good - Considering this is budget accommodation and sits right alongside hotels 2-3 times the price it was a great choice. It has beach area and friendly staff. Bike and snorkeling gear rental all sorted here. Easy and good value.
- Anonymous (8/5): Very good - location. all good for me
- Kateryna (7/5): Good -
- Jo-anne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hawkins (7/5): Not beachfront as advertised, the staff try very hard to help but not worth the money they charge. - Spacious rooms, good a/c, bed was comfortable, only 70m to the beach. Balinese style to the cottages, staff very helpful when available. It is advertised as beach front and the cottages are not beach front. There is no reception other than a shack on the main road but this is how they run the accomodation and restaurant.
The water pressure was very limited and there is no hot water in the shower. The staff did not make up the room over my 3 days even though I asked for it to be done and left the door sign accordingly.
- Linda (7/5): Good, friendly, basic accommodation. - The staff are very friendly. It is basic but affordable and the bungalows are cute. The bungalows are air conditioned and it’s close to the beach.
Ask for a bungalow towards the back if you prefer to go to bed early to avoid the music from all the venues along the beach.
The snorkelling is great here and you can hire snorkelling gear from the place. They seem to care about the turtles and fellow guests of this place were nice and keeping a respectful distance from the turtles, instead of some of the other areas where people were doing stupid things like trying to touch the turtles or crowding around them.
There was no live music or loud pumping speakers like there are at other places along the beach which was fantastic for us, but still close to all the action if you want it. The beds are hard. Ladies, bring something soft to pop under your hip to avoid getting a dead leg.
Bring cash too, this place didn’t take card.
Like many other places on the island, there is no hot water here.
- Michael (5/5): Gili t - The staff were very friendly and helpful. The cottages are in a good location No hot water, no bottled water in the room and the towels were threadbare
- Fiona (1/5): I’ve stayed in worse but paid an appropriate price for it. I would never stay here again, the pathway to the hut was thr - Easy access to the beach and a bit more quiet than being in the middle. For the price I paid I would have expected hot water, a bar fridge, side lamps at the bed and a proper reception. Working wifi would have been nice too.
- Socias (4/5): Disappointed - Good location. There was a situation with the person at the front desk that made me quite uncomfortable, he was quite rude when I was outside the food stand to buy a water, maybe he hates his job and doesn't like tourists, I hope he doesn't treat anyone like that again.
The rest of the staff was great, the guys who take care of the garden and the cleaners were amazing!
I won’t stay in this place again because of that guy with the bucket hat.
- Hui (3/5): A Mixed Experience - The people there are lovely especially Ryan whose real name is Torid. He's really went over and beyond to serve his customers and with all sincerity. He's humorous, cute and really just lovely. Mat greeted and welcomed us warmly when we arrived. He had also assisted to arrange for us for a horse ride out upon our check out. Breakfast was good and generously portioned. Location is superb and really near to the beach. You can really see some turtles at this point although the beach isn't perfect and has quite some stones and dead corals around. Facilities were not great at all. The sink faucet could turn left and right and not fixed tightly to the sink. Water was leaking from the sink. Therefore, you need to open and close it from the main pipe below the sink. The water flow from the shower is kinda small that you can hardly wash off all the sand or be able to wash any of your swimsuits. Also I did not realize that there was quite a steep few steps down the bathroom and it's definitely not good for my sprained legs. The mosquito netting in our room was ridiculously small that it couldn't cover a double bed at all. It covered all over us in our skin and there were holes in it. We used insect repellent and it helped some. The mosquitos were really annoying even when you sleep you can hear them. I was just glad I had a short stay there because of the facility as I'm a very particular person. Hopefully they will fix and upgrade it.
- Gubendiren (8/5): Very good - Walkable distance to all the happening places but still a very calm location and beach is really good and if your lucky could see turtles in the beach. Staffs are very friendly and helpful. Not much to say about the price and location.
- Ana (10/5): Recommend. - Very friendly staff, great location! Cottages comfy and clean. Maybe miss refrigerator in the room but you can get cold drinks anytime with the smile of people working there.
On the turtle point. You can see them all the time (or we were that lucky- who knows:-) )
- Fiona (7/5): Good -
- Anonymous (8/5): Lovely stay - The location and the staff. Comfortable rooms and quiet. Lovely breakfast and staff whom make you feel like family
- Karen (8/5): Great room and facilities for the price, - Great location, the staff were very helpful, Great size room, with comfy beds, all facilities worked, good wifi. snorkeled with turtles right in the front of property. Nice place to swim, place is good for the price. Could have been cleaner, the blanket on the bed needed a wash and also the curtains.
- Anonymous (6/5): The property is at good location and the rooms were clean. But better to take your toiletries and adapters. The staff is - The location was nice. The front is a little under developed. The huts are built nicely. The rooms were clean. It’s right across the beach. The staff is helpful. No basic amenities like no drinking water/toiletries/charging adapter. There is no board so difficult to find. The facade of the property is under developed and mostly clutter.
- Rokstad (5/5): If you stay in one of the newer cottages this is good value . - Nicely located a bit outside of town centre and almost directly on the beach. Good snorkling. The back area where the cottages were located was very nice and tidy. The newer cottages were nice. Breakfast was included and was great considering the price. The older cottages had very poor bathroom facilities. The reception area was basic and beach furnitures and sunbeds were old and not maintained.
- Patel (10/5): Exceptional - The location was too amazing, it wasjust opposite to the beach, had thier own beach shack & the most important point it was exactly on the turtle point. you can literally spot turtles opposite to your hotel.
- Jason (5/5): Passable - Proximity to the beach was amazing The WiFi in our bungalow was not working
- 199 (9/5): Superb -
- Damien (8/5): Very good - Close to turtle beach (across the road) Cold showers
- Petra (10/5): Exceptional - Great location at the beach (you just cross the road and you are at the beach with sunbeds that belong to Melati Cottage and you can use them for free). I saw 3 turtles when snorkeling at this beach. You can take a nice walk on the main street to the food market which we really liked for dinner.
- Mariel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Htoo (8/5): Very good -
- Casey (9/5): Superb - perfect rooms with basics everything you need.
best part was the guy looking after us had a good laugh every day looked after us.
great omelette wifi wasn’t the best
- Paula (7/5): Good -
- Barbara (6/5): Pleasant -
- Christine (7/5): Good -
- Rosie (8/5): Very good - absolutely great location for snorkeling with turtle! just walk out, cross the street and you’ll find turtles 😁 has air on in the rooms and big area for the bathroom.
- Jim (10/5): Amazing staff, quiet area, convenient, good value for money - The staff was great! They assisted with everything possible. They also knew each day which bar would host the best nightlife for that specific day.
The bungalows are nice, and equipped with AC and a fan.
Location on a nice quiet stretch on a very reasonable distance from everything.
They offer bike and snorkel rental, and offer convenient services such as laundry and a store.
The view from the restaurant is great, from where you could take a swim and have good chances of spotting a turtle.
I've booked for 2 nights and extended up to 8.
Needles to say: I've enjoyed my stay! They offer extremely reasonable/cheap prices for the accommodation. But you get what you pay for (plus extras), great value for money in my opinion.
But noteworthy: the private bathroom attached to the bungalow doesn't have warm water.
Since the outside temperature was like 30+ degrees I didn't mind.
- Jacqueline (10/5): Exceptional - Such a quite and simple relaxing atmosphere with melati cottage here on busy Gili Trawangan. The staff is the best and helpful in any way.
- Rebecca (9/5): Superb - Friendly and helpful staff. Great location. Owned and run by Gili locals.
- Rebecca (8/5): Very good - Private villa just a few metres from the beach. Friendly and courteous staff.
