Find hotels near Gili Trawangan in Lombok, Indonesia

In Gili Trawangan (GT) it is difficult to find good accommodation unless you book ahead. We were forced to change our travel plans and were very fortunate to book a villa at Villa Almarik - on the beach at the northern end of GT, only 10 to 15 minutes stroll to the village centre. It has the benefit of not being “in town” where it seems that most parties are every night, and not near the mosque. VA is self contained with a dive shop, tours booked from the front desk, breakfast with a view across the beach to Gili Meno, large pool and spa/ massage centre. Their restaurant is on the beach, across the road, where lunch and dinner are served. All “beach hotels” are actually across the road, where carriages drawn by miniature horses serve as taxis run by – no motorized transport is available in GT. We were met at the harbor by a VA staff who held our name sign. We were quickly transported by a Trawangan Cidomo (horse drawn carriage) to VA and served a cold towel and welcome drink. Everything has a personal touch at VA and all gardens, furniture and buildings are in excellent condition. Their efficient and friendly staff checked us in quickly and nothing was too much trouble. We were always greeted with a friendly smile. The room was large and spotlessly clean, king size comfortable bed, separate lounge/day bed, full minibar and efficient aircon. The tropical bathroom had its own private garden and a large open shower with a good supply of hot water. VA have concentrated on presentation, with a starfish emphasis and rooms have a well presented frangipani influence. The wifi seems to fade at times, so if I needed an extended session I went to the reception area. Well done Villa Almarik!!

We booked two nights at the Vamana Resort but due to a double booking our room was already occupied when we arrived. The hotel boss arranged our stay for the first night at the neighbouring hotel Villa Almarik. We also received a free dinner due to the inconvenience. Since the other hotel was only 50m away from Vamana, this was no problem at all. Our room at Vamana was very nice and clean. The pool area was cozy and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location is fantastic. It is a quiet area, about 10 or 15 minutes walk away from the village center and the noisy part of the island. The breakfast is served in the hotel's restaurant located at the beach. We can highly recommend this hotel. It is probably the best one on Gili Trawangan.

We stayed here for a short trip to Gili and found it an excellent location where all the restaurants and bars were. 5 min walk from the Port so you can simply carry your luggage when you get off the boat without breaking too much of a sweat. The rooms were nice and luxurious inside and had a surf feel to it. Peace and quiet too, no interruptions with outside noise. Infinity style pool at the front allowed you to look over the street and foreshore but there wasn't too much space to lie down and sunbake. Staff were very friendly and would always assist with our enquires. Hotel didn't have complimentary bicycle hire but across the road there's a few options to hire for bout 30-40k rupiah for the day.

if i have chance to go to gili trawangan i will be back again to this hotel.. the hotel location in the center of gili trawanhgan so you have take 5 minute by bike to the beach,, but don worry the hotel give a free bike for you to take tour around the island.. tips if you stay in this hotel,, if night come n you want to dinner or hang out on beach you need some headlamp,,cause the village have minim street lamp,,there have a few spot that really dark until 10-15 meters.. the hotel is like a pearl in center of gili trawangan.. RECOMENDED..!!

My advices : 1. If u want to go this hotel, use the public boat from Bangsal Ferry Terminal cos u will arrive in the shore near the hotel. If u use fast boat, u will arrive at Gili Trawangan Jetty near the Night Market which is too far from the hotel and u will have a hard time to carry all of your luggage. 2. From the Bangsal, u can call local porter to help carry your luggage. Be sure contact the hotel to help u arrange The Cidomo transport (horse cart) to carry ur family n luggage to the hotel. The distance from the shore still quite far away by walking. 3. Rent bikes from the hotel for transportation and dont forget bring small flashlight for your bike or you can use Cidomo to go to the beach. 4. Pack many foods for ur kids cos local foods are too spicy for my kids. For lunch go to Warung Bu Dewi (near vegetable market). For Dinner go to Night Market. 5.If you want go to other Gili's island, be sure to check public boat departure time at the harbor n buy ticket 1 day earlier.

the best hotel in Gili Trawangan. nice garden, lotsI of coconut trees. have a beautiful beach club. the best service, you are like the most important person on the island. and the staff, Yuda. I think the hotel should give him the best employee award. Yuda handle me perfect from the first day to the last day at the hotel. Cheap hotel. Good atmosphere. Nice bedroom and beautiful open air bathroom. Good breakfast and good for iwik iwik ambyar 😂

To be honest, this hotel is a center of sunset view in Gili Trawangan. But the location is far from the port and mini market. You need to rent transportation here. Lucky, the hotel has many bikes to use but I have to book it early before "sold out". The room is big enough and clean. Windows to see outside, your eyes will see garden and others room. But when you out from the room, the smell is not too good. The restaurant is exactly in front of a beautiful beach of gili trawangan. It makes you, stay sit and enjoy the very wonderful view. The menu for breakfast also delicious and amazing with many choices, western and local foods were served. I am thinking to coming back to this hotel next trip.

The location was just perfect. You dont even have to rent a bike if you are staying in POT. All the main restaurants and bars are nearby and the night market is also within walking distance. We tried other hotels and villas in gili trawangan but seemed like POT is the best. The staff are amazingly nice and the Wifi works very well. The breakfast is also very good, the resort restaurant is famous for the food itself. The resort beach area is one of the best in gili t. I will not hesitate to book this resort.

My husband and I travel to Seminyak twice a year, Dec 2015 we went for a month and decided lets go overnight to see the Islands and we decided on Gili Trawangan. Found Villa Nero and stayed for 3 nights! Checked the whole island and this is THE best accommodation by far - Dinner (all meals actually) were inexpensive and 1st Class - the Chef travelled the world as a Chef on Cruise Ships so detail of presentation, variety etc. WOW.The whole premises are spotless and the rooms 5 STAR - the beds so so comfortable. Nothing to NOT like about Villa Nero! The pool magnificent....staff spot on! Jackie Port Melbourne Australia ! AND I am so fussy!

The hotel room is like villa..very uniques interior, so romantic and the room was larger... and when you open the side door, you will directly find the pool.. Super! and the pool was large. The only minus is the location. It was 5 minute away from the beach by bicycle and the location is quite secluded. But it was paid off with the beauty of the hotel. I suggest you take cidomo (horse cab) to reach the hotel from the beach. The hotel also have their private beach..it is nice as well and not far from the attraction in Gili Trawangan... I highly recommend this hotel for couples.. not for family with baby.. but if you insist better you take cidomo to take you around.... Thanks Luce!! very nice hotel

Firstly we are lucky to get the second floor room which they call it sunset room, with entire floor available for us , which is huge with marvelous sea-view , we really love it staying there having Ruby as the host, he is so nice and helpful and kind, with this side of the beach, not much bars or restaurant so you can really enjoy the quietness of the island , GILI TK island is a place for diving and surfing , i had tried my very first diving here and i already love it , i will be back soon

The beginning of my stay was welcome with warm smiles and a beautiful fruit basket. The entire villa was exactly how it looks on the internet. The villas are kept clean, you have everything you need for a relaxing holiday on Gili T. The food available there is fresh, tasty and a good variety. Bike hire available to ride around the island..its a 25min approx walk to the harbour and 5min if that to sunset beach. I have nothing negative in my opinion of Khumba Villas everything for my stay was perfect. The staff are absolutely helpful and ensure you are well looked after. Thank you Khumba Villas, i will definitely return one day and recommend you.

I really enjoyed my 3 nights here. A little away from the crowd so it was a bit difficult to locate the place on arrival and again the first night after dark. There are plenty of super friendly locals around to ask directions though. Quite a few mud puddles but that's the top middle of the island for you. Note that google maps is wrong up here! Room was comfortable and clean, staff were friendly ,although English was a bit difficult, and I got a free bike, although pickings were slim. The pool was clean and cool enough to cool down which is not always the case on Gili's.

This is the place u want to stay if you are in Gili Trawangan. Just 5 minutes walk to happening area, yet so quiet at night. We came to Gili Trawangan for 3 days 2 nights and it rains sometimes, fortunately, we stay in Ambary House that provide us with all in house comfort and entertainment. Once you enter the villa, u'll be amazed how huge the pool is!!! more than enough and OH MY GOD, the jacuzzi, its amazng. even during rain, we just sit in the jacuzzi and relax. The thing that you will notice is the CINEMA! with selection of movies to watch. The open area have huge couches, two of them. A small hut that act literally as a mini library is set just beside the pool and big enough for four of us to spend time reading books, variety of books, every genre you could imagine. gosh, i wish we could stay longer, maybe a week or so, to fully utilize the house. The housekeeper, is da bomb! he treat us like a family. He did nearly everything for us, we even embarrassed even to ask him for favor since he gives everything we need. My friends phone just dropped into the beach and he recommend to put it in the uncooked rice and the phone turn out fine. The breakfast could be better, we are Asian and at first he serves us eggs and pancakes, which is quite bland for us, but the next day Mr brought us nasi campur/mixed rice for breakfast and we were very very happy and contented! The rooms are huge enough, we asked for extra mattress for extra 1 adult, and it is very comfortable. The bathroom going to surprise you!!! you have to stay here to know the surprise, because the design of the bathroom is beyond imagination. Mr also provide us with electric insect repellent which is much needed in tropical island. During check out, the owner personally speaks to me through phone and ask us our experience of staying in Ambary House, and it was splendid, and the owner even handed us cute cat souvenirs for us to bring back home, how sweet is that?

I never heard or read about Villa Ombak before I decided to choose it. The stories in internet varies from bad stories to excellent storie. I make phone call almost in yhe middle of the night and they give clear information about everything include the weather,. I really copncern about this because some friends suggest us not to go in the rainy season in December 2012. They make me sure that is safe to pass the sea to the Gili Trawangan island. I hope not so much about the facilities. The morning before we go I make sure, they checked and it's OK. This is for the first time I used AGODA service. At the hotel everything we need and imagine about GILI TRAWANGAN ISLAND is AVAILABLE from the Hotel, make it easier to enjoy the Island. The special deck and boat from and to Gili Trawangan Island is very helpful. FRESH WATER is available when we need. The location is very nice between crowd and still area. Nice beach directly in front of the hotel. Nice garden in the hotel.

My parents, my partner and I had an absolutely fantastic stay in this villa. The villa itself is stunning and the attention to detail was really noticeable. The cleanliness of the villa is one of the cleanest places We have ever stayed. The thing that really made it for us was the staff, especially Harry. Harry was welcoming, accommodating and could not do enough to make sure we had a pleasant stay. Overall I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in Gili. The beach is on your door step (52 seconds) and it's a great spot for snorkelling with turtles.

The staff were one of the loveliest people we had the pleasure of visiting. The room was very nice, even tough the air-conditioning wasn't working properly for one night. The pool was smallish, but just enough for quick dip between shower and the beach! :) Very quiet are, away from the beach parties and mosque morning prayers if those aren't your thing :) Highly recommend!

This is a great hotel to stay if you are planning to visit Gili Trawangan. The staffs are very helpful and always there to assist us even it's during midnight. It's just like the butler service. They do provide speaker which we are able to play songs and chill throughout the whole day. The staffs do offer extra breakfast when they realize we are still hungry. They do provide bicycle so we can cycle around the island which is so convenience.

Horizontal is placed at the backpackers paradise of Gili Trawangan. It is a little troublesome to get to Gili Trawangan itself (local boat) but once there, the sparkling clear waters will just take your breath away. Trawangan is a small island, so there is no vehicles. You either walk, cycle or ride a horse cart, so its very fortunate that Horizontal Hotel is within walking distance (approximately 200m) from the harbor. The room is very very very spacious! The private jacuzzi and huge lounge area makes me want to stay in half the time. However, there was a tiny problem with the air conditioner. You can barely feel it in the day. I'm not sure if its the aircon problem or the weather is just too crazy hot, but the sea breeze is what i relied on to keep cool. In the night, it gets a bit cooler but not much. Another problem was the shower. Theres only crazy hot water or cold tap water. But that wasn't much of a big deal. Another thing was the towels. There were stains on the white towels. We solved it by asking for a beach towel which was a brown in color. Or you can bring your own. The last problem was the sliding doors. Quite heavy for us girls, but we didn't really think much about it. Wifi is only available in the lobby area. All in all, don't have very high expectation of Horizontal. It has your basic necessities and thats all you really need in trawangan. I honestly think its one of the nicer hotels compared to the others. I would definitely return to Horizontal.

This was our second visit to Gili Trawangan and when last here in December decided to return as soon as we could. So we physically rode bikes around the island and viewed at all the villas with private swimming pools on the island and concluded that sunset palms resort was the most beautiful best maintained, cleanest and had the largest pools of all the villas of this type we saw and was also the best value for money. We booked as soon as we returned home and really looked forward to our trip back in June. The pools are a great size clean and sparkling the rooms are minimalist, elegant, chic and spotless. The outdoor bathroom is amazing it's wonderful being able to shower under the stars. The villas private garden and the resorts gardens are magnificent. Breakfast and the food in general is of a high standard delicious and all cooked fresh to order. Staff were a delight and their service was attentive but unobtrusive. We absolutely loved this place and will definitely return as soon as we can and would recommend the resort without hesitation.
