Staying at this beachfront backpacker hotel was an absolute blast! The location was mind-blowing, right in the heart of town. The staff were super friendly and helpful, giving us the best advice for exploring the island. The bar, Lava, was jaw-droppingly awesome, with a tattoo artist and hairdresser onsite. The breakfast was perfect, and the free welcome drinks were a pleasant surprise. We couldn't get enough of the outdoor dining area and the bar/lounge area downstairs. The outdoor swimming pool was a refreshing oasis, and the beach access with sun loungers and umbrellas made us feel like VIPs. We enjoyed endless fun in the game room, playing table tennis and darts. The hotel offered a range of activities such as cycling, canoeing, fishing, snorkeling, and diving. For relaxation, we indulged in a yoga class right on the beach. The luggage storage and locker room provided convenience, and the 24-hour security ensured our safety. To top it all off, the non-smoking rooms were clean and comfortable, guaranteeing a peaceful night's sleep. This hotel was the ultimate choice for our group of three, and we didn't want our vacation to end!

The hostel had a great vibe and the staff were really friendly and helpful. I loved the open roof toilet and shower in our dorm room, it was a unique and fun experience. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach and close to all the bars and restaurants. Plus, having a bar right across the street was a huge bonus for socializing and meeting new people.
The cleanliness could have been better, especially in the bathroom. It seemed like it hadn't been properly cleaned during my stay.

The location of this hotel is great, with easy access to the main night clubs and a short walk to the beach. the rooms are comfortable and clean, with air conditioning that works well. the staff are friendly and welcoming, providing a personal touch to the stay. the breakfast offered is delicious, with options like fresh eggs or pancakes. the rooftop bar provides a great place to hangout and meet new people, with movie screenings in the evening.
The noise from the nearby bar can be disruptive and make it difficult to sleep at times.

We had a fantastic stay at Gili Beach Bum! the hotel provided everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable experience. the beds were comfy, the bathrooms and toilets were clean, and the hot shower was very much appreciated. We also loved starting our day with a delicious breakfast and the air conditioning kept us cool in the tropical heat. the staff were brilliant and incredibly helpful, always going the extra mile to make us feel welcome. They even remembered our names despite our short stay. the location was perfect, not too far from the harbor and close to everything we wanted to explore on the island. We also received a free voucher to the Lava bar next door, which was a great place to unwind and have a good time.
Everything was spot on! 😊.

The Perfect Location and Best Party Bars: This hotel is ideally located close to the beach and offers easy access to some of the best party bars in Gili Trawangan. It's like being in the heart of the action, where the party never stops.
Loud Music at Night: Some nights, there can be loud music from the nearby bar, but it doesn't last much longer after midnight.

The breakfast at this hostel was absolutely mind-blowing! I couldn't believe my taste buds when I had the freshly made banana pancakes and scrambled eggs on toast. Not to mention the fresh fruit and toast as well - super delicious! The location was jaw-droppingly good, just a two-minute walk from the ferry port. It was also close to the vibrant bars and main strip of the island - perfect for exploring and meeting new people. The bar area was a fantastic spot to socialize, and the pool was a cool place to relax. The staff were really helpful and accommodating, making my stay even more enjoyable. The beds were clean and comfortable, allowing for a peaceful night's sleep. The air conditioning in the rooms was top-notch, keeping everything nice and cool. I had a super experience at this hostel and would absolutely recommend it to other young adventurers.

Gili Beach Bum was an amazing hostel! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at home. The dorm rooms were stylish and spacious, with super comfortable beds. The warm shower and toilet in each room were a convenient touch. I loved having the lockers to keep my belongings secure, and the ropes outside the dorms were great for drying wet clothes. The rooftop with the bar was the perfect spot to chill out and enjoy the beautiful views. The cushions and tables provided a cozy atmosphere, and I loved being able to play my own music. The owners and staff were friendly and always made sure everyone was in a great mood. Mama's banana pancakes for breakfast were absolutely delicious! The hostel also provided free cold and hot water, which was a nice bonus. The best part was meeting so many interesting and friendly people during my stay. I would highly recommend Gili Beach Bum for a fantastic hostel experience.

I recently stayed at a hostel in Gili Trawangan and had a fantastic time. The room layout was spacious and unique, and despite there being 7 people in the room, it never felt crowded. The rooftop was a great place to relax during the day, and in the evenings, it had a vibrant atmosphere as people gathered before going out. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach, and I felt safe walking around the area, even at night. I also loved how easy it was to meet other travelers as a solo traveler. The breakfast, although basic, was delicious, and the staff even made me hot tea with lemon when I lost my voice. I highly recommend this hostel for its excellent facilities and friendly atmosphere.

Great location, just a short walk from the harbor, making it convenient to arrive and depart with luggage. The hostel had a modern and comfortable atmosphere, offering a great value compared to other accommodation options in the area.- The staff were friendly and attentive, going out of their way to ensure guests were comfortable and had a pleasant stay.
The cleanliness of the toilets and rooftop area could be improved. There were occasions where the toilets weren't properly cleaned and the rooftop pillows and tables had stains, giving a dirty appearance.
Tourists from South Africa often stay at these properties. Ideas for your future trips.
