Checkout time was 10 am, instead of 10:30 like it was on booking.com. Restaurant has not a big choose, WiFi was poor from time to time. Very noisy from neighbors rooms

Good location- in front of beautiful coral reef and turtle point, comfortable bed, beach front restaurant, good breakfast (when they have all of ingredients), hot shower with salty water

The food was a pretty limited choice.

The facilities were pretty good and cleaner than many. Perfect place for snorkelling with turtles. The staff were exceptional friendly and helpful in a medical emergency.

The only thing that sort of put a damper on our amazing experience here was being over charged when paying with card. I don’t know if it was human error or intentional, but whenever they’d calculate the 3% surcharge for paying with card, I noticed it was closer to 30%. To combat this, I suggest either paying with cash, or learning how to calculate percentages.

This place is just paradise, just next to the point where you can see the turtles. We spent all our mornings snorkeling there, and it was amazing. The bungalow is very nice, the hammock is a plus and the shower is beautiful. You have access to beach beds and a swimming pool which are very nice. The food is good, & the cocktails too. the staff is very friendly. We highly recommend this place !

There's sand and pebbles on the bathroom floor. Although it feels nice aesthetically. It's not practical . As it takes time for water to drain and the bathroom is never completely dry. Maybe that's why there were many many mosquitos in the bathroom.

Amazing hardworking staff. Awesome location with a sunrise spot and snorkelling spot right infront of the property. Good food. Rooms were comfortable.

Staff, food

Would have liked clean bed linen and a fresh towel even a toilet clean or ability to do this cleaning ourselves during our stay. We stayed 7 days, there was no service.

Staff are wonderful Just an ideal location to snorkel and chill on the beach. Food is cheap. Accommodation is rustic but quite adequate. Atmosphere is just fantastic. We loved our little corner of paradise, and will certainly come back sometime soon. Accommodation is rustic and authenthic Indonesian. We loved that. The team looked after us really well. We felt like part of the family.

You can hear your neighbour's conversation, not very private. Some noise from the surrounding area/facilities.

Very chilled and relaxed, great location, fantastic staff.

Door closes only if you lock with the key. No one cleaned inside and we didn’t have toilet paper. Small things that they can change easily.

Nice chill place close to the sea with friendly staff. They can arrange boat tours for snorkelling and rent of bicycles. We liked the breakfast and also our dinner. The BBQ fish is really great! Nice area for chilling by the sea and enjoy some drinks. Overall it was nice 3 days stay at Gillis. If you are looking for relaxation is the perfect gateway! Totally recommend.

The only bad thing was that the wifi (or our own internet on the phones) didn't work inside our room..

Everything was amazing, the staff was so friendly and kind!

Bed and pillows were extremely uncomfortable/hard, even more uncomfortable than most beds I’ve had in Indonesia. AC doesn’t really cool the room (room wasn’t hot, but it was not great, it was pretty warm at night).

Great value for the location, it’s right by the beach, good swimming spot, about a 3 minute walk from the most popular snorkeling spot (where you can see the turtles). You can have breakfast by the beach (breakfast was basic but good). You can roll out of bed and walk outside and see the most beautiful sunrise by the beach (located in the sunrise side of the island). Bungalow had a hammock in the front. Staff was nice.

Really impressed with the size of the bungalows and outdoor bathroom. Clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and beachfront location perfect for snorkelling. Nice but all too short a stay.

There is no daily cleaning (we were there for 4 days) and didn’t get clean towels. Neither was our house or bathroom cleaned. Shower is only cold. Breakfast is bare minimum. Location is great!!

The guys who run it are super nice and willing to help. Kids loved them!
