Meisya Cottage

Best place to stay in Gili T. The price was great, service very good and the breakfast superb. We ended up extending our stay for another night. The hotel is located within 5 mins walk from the harbour and the main bars. Will stay again if we come back.

Great property in Gili T. It is a bit tucked away from the main strip, but easily walkable from the main ferry terminal. It is far enough away from the main road so it is quiet at night, but be aware that there are nightly readings of the Koran at nearby mosques that are broadcast over loudspeakers, so that may be a bit distracting. The room itself was spacious. There was hot water and a fresh water shower in the bathroom, as well as a sit toilet, which was fantastic for a western traveller. The only oddity was that they don't have soap dispensers, so hand soap, shower gel and shampoo are all in cups. (I would have bought them some dispensers but I had no idea where to find this stuff on Gili T) Wifi was reasonable, although it is not super fast (internet/reception on the island in general is not all that fast). The owner has a collection of DVDs for viewing in the room as well. One of the highlights was the breakfast. It was prepared fresh upon ordering and was made with love and care. I had the banana pancakes and the banana juice, both of which were delightful. Another highlight was the bicycles. They are available free of charge at any time, which was very convenient for getting around the island, especially getting to the west side for the sunset. The owners were great and friendly. They were available to assist if necessary, but always greeted guests with a smile. Overall, a gem on Gili T and would recommend others to try it out.
