Meisya Cottage

Such a lovely place! They only have two rooms, with a medium-sized fridge and free bicycles for guests.

I’ve stayed in lots of places while travelling, and this one was the best. It’s very popular among Koreans, so getting a reservation can be difficult. The owner is as kind as people say, and they clean every day. For this price, you even get a TV, the air conditioning works really well, and breakfast was delicious. I couldn’t extend my stay, so I spent one night elsewhere and kept thinking about this place because the air conditioning there didn’t work well. Best of all, the bicycles are free. The owner runs a travel agency called MATT'S OFFICE and offers tours like snorkeling at very cheap prices, so booking through them might be a good idea. I didn’t take a tour, but I enjoyed snorkeling at Turtle Point. The owner lent me equipment, including a new snorkel mask, for such a low price that I felt a little bad about it. My husband and I also had trouble when our phones got submerged and we couldn’t use the map. The owner took us to a repair shop and even asked a friend in Lombok to find out how my phone could be fixed.

This is where we’ll stay whenever we come to Gili. It was fully booked a month ahead, but it’s so well known that we decided to come anyway and could only get a few days. The room was spotless, with no bugs, and the owner was so kind. When my husband and I couldn’t find our phones because they were broken, we went to the owner’s office. He took us straight to a place that repairs phones, then brought us back to our accommodation. He also rented us snorkeling gear and flippers for a very cheap price. The bicycles for guests were free, which was really nice. I’ll come again next time I visit Gili. Stay healthy!

We stayed longer because we liked it so much, and the value was incredible. The owners were friendly and always helpful. The breakfast was generous, included lots of choices, and came with a massive fruit salad. Bikes and snorkel gear were free to use. The location was just right, near the pier but far enough from the party strip for a comfortable night’s sleep. Our room had air conditioning, a huge fridge, flat screen TV, good WiFi, a kettle, a comfortable bed, and a brilliant hot water shower. Thanks for such a great stay, couldn’t recommend it more 😊☘️
