The staff are awesome and the rooms are comfortable. The major selling point of Bale Sampan is its location. Easy walking distance to everything (including the ferry that gets you to the island). I will stay here again.

Like the rest of the island, the water pressure here is poor. Being close to the Mosque, you clearly hear the call to prayer time. The advantages of this place outweigh these issues.

We really enjoyed the stay here, it is perfect for couple of groups exploring Gili T. It is a short walk from the harbour and bikes are available for cheap rental so you can easily get around the island for sunset, snorkelling etc. the room was very comfortable and well equipped, the restaurant/cafe was very nice with very good range of western food but also traditional food if preferred. The pool is quite small with only a few subbed but most people aren’t in Gili for a pool lol and there are plenty of private sunbeds on the beach opposite. Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating and we would definitely stay here again is we choose to come to Gili T again!

Nothing.

We absolutely lobed Bale Sampan. It is such a gem. You can wall straight out the front, after a great breakfast, and literally swim with many turtles all day. The snorkelling at the front door is exceptional!!! World class and the staff were truly amazing. I would also like to give a very special mention to our cleaner Abdul who went above and beyond to male our room feel so special every day. He is such a great man and we cant wait to come and visit you guys again. Truly, 10 out of 10 in every way ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Leaving.

Location is excellent! Right at the beach, with a private part with sunbeds. We didnt use the pool, although it looked quite clean and hidden from the boulevard. We couldnt have wished for a better reception than the one we had from Dhul Kifl. He gave us some welcoming drinks and refreshing towels while he checked us in. Rental bikes were also provided by him. We arrived earlier than the check-in time, however Dhul Kifl made sure our room was prepared as soon as possible so we could go to our room. Breakfast (however all food & drinks in general) is excellent. Should certainly try the fluffy pancakes and turkish eggs! Room was decent and clean with an outside rainshower. Abdulaziz suprised us with a nice selfmade turtle-towel. Staff is extremely friendly and are willing to help you with whatever you need. (Activities and general information about the islands)

Beds were a little bit hard, however this is a personal preference. Not a negative point, however one should be aware of the presence of all kinds of animals and insects and their sounds which belong to the typical island character. Especially in the bathroom, since the bathroom is partly outside. Would suggest to make sure that the bathroom door is closed to mitigate any insects or animals coming in the room.

Comfortable and spacious bungalows in perfect location - close to the buzzy bar area but still quiet. Beach and sunbeds are just across the road, which is great. Breakfast and coffee is delicious and the staff is very kind and helpful. Easy to chill here for multiple days.

The price could include some additional value items such as bicycles and snorkeling equipment - it would elevate the experience much further. Nothing to do with the accommodation, but the mosque nearby is pretty loud (especially in the early morning times). Still a wonderful place to stay!

The staff were incredible - so friendly and helpful during our stay. The room was lovely and the hotel is set in an ideal location on Gili T - on the beach, further away from the noise of the beach parties but close enough to walk to many shops and restaurants. The hotel restaurant Taste has delicious breakfasts on the beach and is open till late which was convenient. The hotel has sun beds and use was complimentary for guests. You can snorkel in front of the hotel which was lovely and Izu helped us book a snorkel tour. The hotel pool was also amazing - overlooking the beach and always clean. Really enjoyed our stay here and hope to return.

The staff were incredible, the location was perfect, swimming pool was the perfect size and always empty and the room was big, clean, well thought out, the whole stay was perfect. We stayed with our 7 month old baby and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful with her and made us feel so welcome. We extended twice and ended up staying for 3 weeks. We had 5 nights in hospital on Lombok with our baby and Izu helped organise getting formula milk from the room to the hospital. Abdul from house keeping is the loveliest bloke and is an absolute artist with the bed decor. The rest of the staff were brilliant and made us feel like part of the family, we can’t wait to come back.

We spent four nights here and is happy with our stay. The pictures lives up to reality. The room was spacious, was kept clean whenever we put the sign up and the outdoor bathroom is a nice touch. The location is great, close to the buzz but still far away enough to enjoy some relaxation. Close to the beach (perfect to see the sunrise) and not far from turtle point, we hierd snorkel gear and got to see sea turtels on our first try (yay)! Happy to see the musquito spray in both bed- and bathroom as we heard/saw many others suffer bites while we hardly got any. It was easy and convenient to rent bicycles from the hotel for exploring the rest of the island. A proper and well kept three star hotel. :D

Breakfast was fine but got more to wish for. The fresh fruit we got every morning was nice and coffee is good tho!

Spent two nights at Bale Sampan Bungalows. I was in a garden view room at the back of the resort and it was very quiet. The aircon was super cold and the bar fridge worked very well. The room was spotlessly clean and Abdul went to great efforts to make me feel welcome with his bed designs! Staff were friendly and accommodating. The beach opposite was perfect with crystal clear blue waters. Beds and dining tables were available on the beach also. Their Taste restaurant offered service on the beach as well as in their restaurant area. Breakfast choices were good and it was always very tasty. The location of Bale Sampan is an easy walk from the harbour in the quieter part of Gili T. Reasonably priced. Would recommend.

The perfect location, close enough to the main bars but far enough away from the noise. Everyone on Gili T is so friendly & accommodating. The breakfasts were amazing & I loved the black cat especially 😻 best lattes ever👌🏼☕️ the food was delicious 😋 I love prayer time 🙏🏼 you are quite close to the mosque so expect to hear quiet a bit (I found it peaceful & beautiful) We had a resident gecko 🦎 who made the funniest noises. We hired bikes for 3 consecutive days and explored the island at our leisure- it’s Paradise 🌅. We snorkelled, swam with turtles 🐢 rode horses 🐎 on the beach, had an amazing flower bath and let our hair down at night at some incredible bars with amazing music! Can’t wait to come back! 🌸🍸
