The Trawangan Resort

Beautiful, spacious, clean 2BR Villa with Pvt Pool. Strategic location in a quiet and uncrowded area, but at the same time only about 7-10 min bike ride from the centre. Although we walked from the harbour, a horse cart to the hotel is available for 100k IDR. Daily housekeeping. We went in the shoulder season and the beach infront of the Hotel away from the crowds felt like our very own private space. The ocean was gorgeous in the evening. Functional restaurant/bar on the beach with very nice music and vibe and helpful staff made it a great place to chill until about 9 pm before heading out to the centre. 4 Beach beds for hotel guests.

- Great location, short walk to sunset point, restaurants, boat harbour - Lovely pool (very strong chlorine, discoloured our bikinis slightly so beware) - Massive room with great AC and ceiling fan. Smart TV with Netflix log in was lovely. Bathroom also massive with good shower and toiletries, shaving kit, sewing kit and bathrobes - Great wifi connection and plenty plug sockets in room including a 3 UK plugs which was a nice touch - Very friendly staff and a free glass of juice for us on arrival - Good breakfast included in price, not loads of variety but enough if you’re just staying for a few days. Breakfast on the beach was lovely

- Service at breakfast was quite slow and we had to leave before we’d finished our food despite getting there in good time before our boat. Our orders were normally slightly wrong however staff were apologetic

Fantastic, chilled/laid back place that has just everything you want (we’ve seen happiest families, couples & solo travelers); wave/surfschool right in front; it’s quiet in the night and for the day you just rent a bicycle from the neighborhood and get around everywhere fast; sand under your feet at breakfast; turtles in the morning to swim with (when the tide is still high), bit shyer/smaller/faster than on turtle beach but you get them alone instead of with tons of other snorkelers. It’s worth it to upgrade to a pool villa (also because of the low tide around the Gilis starting lunch/afternoon), they are terrific!! We were sad to leave after 2 nights, we’ll be back fo sure!!

Nothing, this place is perfect!!! Just a tip to travelers on the Gilis: bring water shoes. If you do get a deeper reef cut like me, get it checked out - they recommended Villa Ombak up the road has a medical unit, I paid a small fee for getting the consultation & antibiotic cream.

We stayed in 2 bedroom villa with private swimming pool. What we liked most was super friendly, kind and helpful staff. They were smiling all the time and helped us with any task we asked them for. The location is very good, it's 5-10 mins walk to the harbour/city center, but enough far away from the noise of the bars etc. The swimming pool was nice and refreshing. Cleaning every day. Functional air condition and the ceiling fan. Beach with white sand is nice.

Unfortunatelly we came in the rainy season and the rain affected whole vacation. Because of the rain, we found the outdoor barhrooms and separate living room from the bedrooms as not really a good option, we had wet feet all the time. Also eventhough there was kitchen, it wasn't well equiped. Missing rack for drying a swimsuit etc. The wifi was falling down frequently.

I think the best thing is a breakfast on the beach with great view, it's amazing! You eat your breakfast and see the tourtle so why not jump directly to water :) There are some sun loungers close and some trees so you can relax in the shadow. We have a villa and room, both are fine and comfortable but for sure the villa is better because it has privte swimming pool! All in all we really enjoyed the stay there. Neighborhood is quite and nothing going on but this is a plus. Strong WIFi, goos open swiming pool and nice tourtle point

You need to be aware that it is not in main island area so there is not much to do close to resort and if you want eat somewhere else you need to walk to centre (relaxing walk). Depends on conditions the low tide can be massive so be advised that at some point there is not enough water to swim :(

The localization of the hotel was amazing, close to the main part of the island but far enough to not hear the noise during nights. The private villa is a nice option to sleep with more known people and enjoy the amazing private pool. But the best thing was the staff of the hotel and the bar. They were so nice and they were very close to the customers. They tried to make our stay as most comfortable as possible. Sugeng was taking care of us so nicely and helping us in anything we needed. I am sure we would like to see him again next time we come back to Bali. We highly recommend this place and we want to thank all staff for the attention.

The villa we had was absolutely perfect! Inclosed and private, no disturbance. Location was also perfect, in the end of a busy street, quiet busy just a short walk to everything. And the staff…. so lovely! They were wonderful, always meeting you with the biggest smile and helpfulness 🙏🏼 And maybe the best, having breakfast right there on the beach, enjoying the turquoise water and the occasional sea turtles swimming by!

I really loved everything about this place, but if I have to say something it has to be the kitchen in the villa. It was not in good shape. But hey, no need for kitchen when on vacation 😃

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed our private pool. Aircons was great. Big spacious open plan areas.

The main pool bar and second pool bar was not staffed or in working condition. The main pool was a bit dirty with toiletpaper lying around. The place, restaurant and pool was a bit quiet and empty, felt like we were the only guests there.

The hotel is far from the noisy area but close enough to get there. it’s half way to sunset area and the main restaurants and bar. The rooms are very spacious and super clean. By far the coldest beer we had in the island and We end up spending all day there everyday since you have a nice area in front of the hotel to chill and full of turtles as well 😊 The staff were amazing! every single one of them were lovely and made us feel like we were home. Many tanks to Gem, Sorisal and the bar manager!

The staff at The Trawangan Resort were so genuine and helpful. We felt so comfortable, trusted and well looked after. This is the place to be if you want to relax and not be bothered by the party life at Gili T. We absolutely loved our private villa and breakfast by the beach. Thank you sooo much Trawangan Resort staff! We miss you all already! Highly recommend staying here if you want the best of both worlds in Gili T, that is, it's an easy bike ride to catch the sunset yet also close enough to all the restaurants :)
