Stayed here in April 2011 for two weeks. We stayed in the first bungalow, just behind the gazebo, looking directly out to the sea. Every morning a cheese omelette was prepared fresh for us, along with a cup of coffee. It was the perfect way to start our day. The room was clean, definitely warm, with a nice big bathroom.... More

We stayed for a week at Balenta. Location is fantastic. The main strip of dive shops and accommodation in along the east coast of the island and balenta is located at the northern end of this strip. It is a 5 minute walk to some great bars and restaurants and maybe another 5/10 minutes if you keep walking, towards some... More

The bungalow was really nice, clean room and bathroom, with fan and mosquito net plus fresh water shower. A bit expensive compared to other islands we stayed in but I guess those are the Gili Trawagan prices. Good location and helpful staff.

We stayed here for 400idr a night. Very basic accommodation, cold water showers and breakfast. The people that run it are from neighbouring Lombok and are not at the accommodation during the evening is if it have any problems let the security guard know. We had a good time here and would reccomend for budget travels.

This place is fine, guys that work here fine, rooms fine, bathroom fine. Unless you can pay a couple of hundred dollars a night and move into the next price range, most places on Gili T are 'much of a muchness'.

The rooms are acceptable for what you pay, it was clean and the breakfast was very good but the staff are young kids like in most of places, they are asking you where you're going all the time so they try as everybody to sell you the tours which they offer in the island, the rental of bikes was very...

The staff appear very friendly and the rooms are ok although overpriced. All was ok until the 3rd night when my room and the room next to mine were robbed. Both doors had been opened and re-locked so the staff were presumably in on it and couldnt have been more unhelpful or inconsiderate. Strongly advise not to stay here, even... More

This place is at the top northern end of the main accomodation strip on Gili Trawangan so if you like a bit of quiet it is okay but if you want to be right in the middle of the action it is probably not right for you. The bungalows are aimed at the budget traveller and are of a reasonable... More

Balenta was a very comfortable place to stay, with FRESH WATER, a ceiling fan and AIR CON (the fan didn't work but the air con was great!). For 300,000 I had a great little bungalow tucked back away from the street, in a beautiful setting (see photos). The bathroom could have been cleaner but was on par with other outside... More
