The property is very well located 450m from the ferry port and in the main shopping areas. Bars and restaurants are numerous. Our villa was tucked away to the rear of the property so there was no noise at night. The property had a small pool ideal for a dip. It is located 30m from the beach. The villa is basic and ok for 2 nights. If you're staying for more than 2 nights and have a family, then you may want to look at other places. The breakfast was good and the chef rectified any problems. The staff are friendly but not very attentative although when you explain the issue they helped. What was anniying was that the wifi was not working. When asked initially why, the syaff said it was an island wide issue, while actually all the other restaurants were working fine. One of the friendly night staff connected us to the staff network which was kind of him although this was not a stable connection. This is an average villa and was ok for our 2 night stay.

We were so impressed with every staff member who was so kind and accommodating to my father. He had mobility issues and they helped him every step of the way.
Beautiful outlook of the fishing boats ; the atmosphere was fun and lively but away from the crowd and noise.

The good
The staff were attentive and friendly.The pool is clean and well maintained. The rooms are big and the beds are comfortable enough.
The not so good.
The breakfast buffet was disappointing. They serve chemical made orange juice - there is no natural fruit juice on offer. The fruit choices are limited and meagre. The coffee is instant. The ordered breakfast was very average.

Great stay & loved our time there.

From our room to the staff, we had the best stay. There is absolutely nothing bad or remotely unsatisfactory to say. Everything was amazing. We will 100% be back to stay again. Breakfast was delicious & the convenience of getting a massage added to our great stay. My wife & I give this easily a 5 star review.

Good hotel at beachfront

Room was good except for the toilet.
Toilet needs thorough cleaning. The shower head was rusty n dirty..n there were worms on the bathroom floor which is really shocking. The wc looked old n dirty with very slow water flow.
Hotel standard seems to have dropped compared to our last visit about 4 years ago.
Massage is good but spa facilities hygiene need to be looked into.
Do look into the overall cleanliness of the hotel as it has great ambience..friendly staffs..n good massage.
It only need sone real good maintenance for the hotel to be back at the top.
Overall...good hotel.

Good location!

Great villas! Super clean, spacious, and comfortable bed. My second time to Gili T and I would say this is the best location. The nicest beach and swim area right infront of the hotel and right at the end of the busy street, so it’s a little quieter in the evenings but still in the action. Staff were very friendly, they give beach towels out, and the breakfast is decent.

Staff were very friendly and provided excellent service. The room was quite nice and the breakfast was great. The beach in front of the hotel seamed to be one of the best on the island.

Nice stay, disappointing breakfast

Pros: Bean bags outside room, large rooms, clean, full minibar, short distance to beach, far enough from the busy and noisy south still not too far, good service
Cons: Breakfast was disappointing. One day there was cold food, another day they ran out of almost everything. Went elsewere for breakfast. Swimming pool in the reception area and no hangout chairs by the pool. Go for the beach.
All together a nice stay. Hopefully they will improve their breakfast. Would come again.

Great location on Gili T

We loved Samba Villa's from start to finish. Breakfasts were fabulous in breathtaking location on the sand. The staff were friendly, reliable and made a real fuss of our 2 children. The kids loved the pool. The room was perfect for the 4 of us with a lovely partly outdoor bathroom.

Great hotel for friends, couples and families

I was here with 3 friends so we got a family room and it was great. Very spacious. The hotel staff were very accommodating and would do anything for you. We cycled around the whole island and the best beach by far was just outside the hotel so you wouldn't have to go far

Good Hotel. Good Price

Good Hotel. Conveniently located as just up from the main strip of entertainment but away from all the hustle and bustle. The nearby mosque can make for an unwelcome wake up at 5 am but the whole island would suffer from that so no fault of the hotels. Breakfast was pretty average but prepared well. Only problem we experienced was our room not being ready on checkin and as we had already arrived 2 hrs before check in being made to wait another hour wasn't welcome yet the manager was very apologetic even going to prepare the room himself to assist housekeeping get it done. One very welcome thing was after a very large rainstorm half the islands power went out however the hotel had a generator they ran which basically made the effect of the blackout negligible. Overall a good place for the right price.

Soggiorno molto rilassante

Pulizia giornaliera della stanza e cambio asciugamani. A circa 10 minuti a piedi dal porto, fuori dalla confusione. La struttura ha un piccolo bar/ristorante sulla spiaggia dove si fa colazione e si può mangiare con lo sconto. Sono stati tutti gentili. Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo
