The hostel was really nice especially if you backpack. We had an amazing experience! The staff was extremely kind and helpful. Even if it was low season we still had so fun every evening and played a lot of different drinking games. It’s also located really good to both the beach and Barbour. You can also rent bike through the reception!

Such a fun/ social hostel! Great pool with a climbing wall which was hilarious. Family dinners each night and a really fun pool party with bbq which was super busy! The rooms were a bit like a prison cell but if your not planning to be in the room a lot then it’s fine. Communal outside bathrooms were actually really nixe. 2minute walk to the beach and main road.

One of my favourite hostels ever. The staff/reps are truly the best! So so much fun, so helpful and friendly! The rooms are good, perfectly comfortable and bathrooms are kept stocked up and clean. They always have great events on like the pool party and they host free family dinners throughout the week too. Perfect hostel if you’re up for a good time! Everything is really well ran. All in all had the greatest time here. Would recommend 10/10

Love this place! Great vibes from the other guests, staff, reps and the owner!! Everyone was so helpful during my stay. Awesome pool parties and the rock wall and jumping platforms were such a great addition. Special thanks to Joe, Michael, Jess & Kallum for making me and my friends feel welcome. Thank you Gili Castle!

Great location. Staff is very helpful and engaging. Unfortunately I was sick the majority of my stay and was unable to participate in any social activities. Highly recommend if you want to meet people and enjoy a good party. Ave age range is 18 to 24. I was definitely a bit older than most.

Stay here if your coming to Gili T - one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in! Six of us stayed here for my birthday at the end of a three week trip and the hostel staff (especially Joe), were amazing! They were so friendly and pulled out all the stops to make it such a class birthday and something I will always remember. Hostel is clean, great for meeting people and has lots of games and events on in the evenings, so definitely stay here if your looking for a fun time! We also loved the climbing wall and helpful staff. Thanks again for the best stay, I hope to come back soon!

Best hostel we’ve stayed in during our Indonesia trip, such a fun party hostel. Comfy beds and cheap drinks, party reps were the best entertainers and got everyone involved, such amazing people. The staff were so lovely, especially Joe who was so helpful and generous. Great bar staff, so much fun. We would highly recommend the gili grenade shot for the best night. The climbing wall competition was spectacular, even the manager got involved; just couldn’t quite keep up with our expertise. Would definitely recommend for a great stay in gili, we will definitely be back ;).
