Pemenang Hotels with Bars

Amazing experience with the staff and villas at Kuno Villas!!! They cover transportation to the villas, bikes, bug spray, towels, etc which is essentially everything you need for your stay at Gili T so it’s worth the splurge! It’s also located in the quieter north part of the island which is so nice and peaceful. Felt like a slice of heaven!!

Pondok Santi Estate is truly an exceptional place to stay. We stayed at Pondok Santi Estate in Gili Trawangan for four nights, and from the very first moment, everything exceeded our expectations. The level of service is outstanding — a true 5 out of 5 — and the experience feels much more like a five-star luxury resort rather than a hotel. Every detail is beautifully designed and perfectly maintained. The rooms are spacious, elegant, and extremely comfortable. Housekeeping is impeccable, and the staff is attentive without ever being intrusive. The restaurant experience deserves special praise. The food quality, presentation, and service were consistently excellent. Breakfasts were a highlight of our stay — fresh, delicious, and served in a peaceful, beautiful setting that made every morning feel special. What truly sets this resort apart is the warmth and professionalism of the team. From the room staff to the restaurant team, everyone made us feel genuinely welcome and well cared for throughout our stay. Personally, Gili Trawangan itself is not a destination that impressed me greatly. However, Pondok Santi Estate completely transformed our experience and made the island a place I would happily return to again — specifically because of this resort. We feel very fortunate to have stayed here and are deeply grateful for such a memorable and high-quality experience. Pondok Santi Estate is a true sanctuary of comfort, elegance, and exceptional hospitality, and we would not hesitate to return.

I actually cried when we left this villa! I'm truly speechless when it comes to describing the range of emotions and experiences that made up our vacation! It was unforgettable! The warmth and responsiveness of the staff, the excellent location, the cleanliness and comfort, the peace and quiet... I could go on forever! Everything was perfect, without exception – the room, the design, the grounds. The housekeeping was impeccable, not a speck of dust in the room, and the grounds were constantly maintained. The beach is just a stone's throw away, the water is crystal clear, there are lots of turtles, and beautiful fish. We walked at low tide to the turn on the left side, and from there, we started snorkeling along the edge of the reef where turtles gather in groups of 3-5. We even saw a venerable lady about a meter long. It's incredibly beautiful, they look like they're flying. Larger fish also swim in from the deep there. There are cats on the hotel grounds, so don't be lazy, pack a bag of cat food in your suitcase, and they'll thank you with their purrs. Not far from the hotel, there's a cat shelter where they treat sick animals, and also sell food and souvenirs, with the proceeds going towards animal care. Don't miss catching at least one sunrise and watching a sunset; photos simply don't do the beauty justice. After swimming to our heart's content and enjoying delicious dinners, we slept like babies on the comfortable beds, falling asleep and waking up to the sound of birdsong. It was a vacation for the mind and body, feeling as if we were in paradise. A special thank you to the staff who create this incredible atmosphere.

Sea Shell Hotel Gili is a small and cozy hotel where we stayed for two nights during our trip to the Gili Islands. The hotel is located inside the island rather than directly on the beach, but the ocean is still within easy walking distance — just a short walk to the left side of the island. Considering the size of Gili, the location is actually quite convenient and quiet. Our room was spacious with a large comfortable bed, perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun. The bathroom was also quite big with good plumbing — hot water was always available and the water pressure was strong. Overall everything was clean and well maintained. One small thing that felt a bit strange was that we were given only one towel per person. If a place positions itself as a hotel rather than a guesthouse, it would be nice to have at least two towels per guest. Another detail we didn’t love was the drinking water system. Water is provided in a jug rather than sealed plastic bottles. While it may be more eco-friendly, personally I feel a bit more comfortable when the drinking water comes in sealed bottles. The hotel has a large swimming pool which looks nice, although we didn’t end up using it — when you’re on Gili, swimming in the ocean feels like the obvious choice. Breakfast was probably the most disappointing part of the stay. There is a menu, but in reality there aren’t many options to choose from. On the second morning about half of the menu was unavailable when we tried to order, and no explanation was given. Amsterdam - Good cafe near the hotel :) in the end we sorted out our breakfast there Overall, Sea Shell Hotel Gili is a decent option if you’re looking for a quiet place to stay with spacious rooms and a good bathroom. It’s not perfect, but for a short stay on the island it worked well enough.

Beautiful resort with a great location - perfect for a peaceful gateway. The hotel is located about 10-15 minute walk from the boat services and is the only large hotel located nearby providing quiet and calmness. The service was wonderful and all the staff were very helpful navigating the island and activities. The rooms were cleaned daily and included all the needed amenities - fridge, safe, towels, AC etc. You can enjoy the swimming pool by the hotel, sunbeds or walk straight into the ocean from the beach. A little walk either direction from the hotel you can easily spot and snorkel with turtles - we were also lucky enough to spot 2 sea turtles right in front of the hotel. More healthy corals and schools of small fishes can be found a little further out into the ocean - we recommend you start a walk away from the hotel and follow the current around the island. Great stay, we left very relaxed and happy.

The hotel is conveniently located on the west side of the island. A road connects the west side to the east, passing through the center of the island; it's about a 30-minute walk or a 10-minute scooter ride. The hotel grounds are well-maintained, lush with greenery, and feature a pool, bar, and breakfast service. The only minor downside is that after room cleaning, towels were sometimes forgotten or taken without new ones being provided, or toilet paper was missed. It's not critical, as you can always go to the front desk and ask. Overall, it was a pleasant stay here, and I recommend it.

perfecr location to the port.. the personel is very kind and supportive. they helped with the snorkelling tour. you can hire a bike from the front of the hotel.

Mixed feelings — kind staff but disappointing overall. First of all, a big thank you to the hotel staff, who were genuinely kind and attentive throughout our stay. Unfortunately, the issue isn’t the people — it’s the property itself. The photos online look beautiful, but in reality, the finishes and details just don’t match the pictures. Everything feels a bit cheap and unfinished. For example, the pool area has small sofas but no cushions, so you can’t really relax comfortably by the water. In the rooms, several things were off — cracked flooring, a broken window, missing door handles (you have to lock the door from inside or outside every time), and other small issues that really add up. Considering the price, it’s quite disappointing, especially when there are nicer hotels nearby for less money. We stayed in the Villa Fuego, which, as you can see on Google Maps, is located right next to the road — meaning it’s noisy, with scooters constantly passing by. It completely breaks the idea of a quiet, romantic getaway in a “private villa.” It’s a real shame, because the staff do their best, but the overall experience doesn’t live up to the expectations or the price. Sadly, despite the warm hospitality, we left feeling that this stay was not worth it.

I was worried because there were many bad reviews on other sites, but when I went, things had improved. The pool was cleaned by staff every morning. The tap water was clean. The air conditioning worked well. The deluxe pool room has a small refrigerator. Drinking water is available at the front desk, you can drink as much as you like and bring it to your room in a glass pot. Breakfast is served buffet-style from 7:30 AM at the shabu-shabu restaurant by the beach, which seems to be part of the same group. There were various dishes, and I enjoyed eating while looking at the sea.

Good hotel, enjoyed everything. The pool is great, and it's only a 2-minute walk to the main street, with everything within walking distance. Their snorkeling trips are cheaper than anywhere else; you can pay at the hotel. It's 1100 out on the street, but only 175 here.
