Pearl of Trawangan
What Guests Say
What’s not to love?! Right on the beach in Gili T. It was far enough from the port to be out of the hustle and bustle but close enough to go for a walk around. We stayed in a teak cottage, which was lovely. They are small, but you are only sleeping there. The bed was comfy and the place was clean ☺️. We went snorkeling - excellent. Did a day trip over to Lombok and visited the wild life park - outstanding. Hired an electric scooter and explored the island. If you are a Bali traveler, you need to explore the Gili’s at least once 🙌🏼.

Lovely hotel situated in the perfect spot in Gili, close enough to the busy bars and restaurants but quiet enough. We toured the island and many other parts are very quiet where as this was perfect. Lovely restaurant overlooking the sea. Pool with waterfall and swim up bar where you can order drinks and food. We had the basic room which wasn’t perfect, ground floor so privacy on porch wasn’t great. The bathrooms are semi outside so get very hot and are connected to neighbours so you can hear each other very easily. I would advise upgrading room but definitely worth a stay whilst in Gili

The location of the hotel—it was just a short 10-minute walk, which was ideal. It was also very convenient that you could rent bikes there (per day, but you can always extend). The staff were wonderful as well, very attentive and friendly. The breakfast was also good, with plenty of choices (the smoked salmon was a bit different from what we’re used to in Belgium, but that’s just a matter of taste). The restaurant was also lovely for dinner!

Pearl of Trawangan is without a doubt the most beautiful hotel on the entire island. Everything was perfect: the hotel is stunning and well-maintained down to the smallest details. Breakfast was delicious and varied – the perfect way to start the day. One of the highlights is the private beach, reserved exclusively for guests. Peaceful, relaxing, and just steps away. The location is also ideal: right in the heart of the island but still quiet enough to fully unwind. I truly enjoyed my stay here, and if I ever return to Gili, I will definitely book this hotel again. A true gem on the island!

Everything was great. The hotel, the pool, the room, the restaurant, etc… The hotel is like 10-15 minute walk from the harbor. The location is between the central place and the sunset area. It’s quiet and perfect. There’s also ATMs right next to the hotel. It also has bicycle parking and electric motor bike parking (in front of the hotel for electric motor bikes). The staff is absolutely awesome. They’re kind, respectful and always smiling. They accommodate whatever need you have. It also has a private area on the beach. I absolutely loved my stay here and I think that this is the best hotel on the island.

I was really looking forward to coming here and to be honest, I was initially disappointed that the huts are not ‘on the beach’ and the pictures here make the resort look like it’s on the corner. Reality is that there is a small road in front of the huts, which are in a row behind a small wall. Electric bikes, bicycles and horse and carts are the only thing that goes up and down, but it was fairly busy when we arrived, not the idyllic quiet paradise I had dreamt of. I soon got over myself and had an amazing stay here. The bungalows are very well equipped lovely open air bathrooms and sun loungers on the front balcony. Loads of loungers on the beach and by the pool. The food in the restaurant was gorgeous and the pool amazing, all of the staff were fabulous, tending to our every need. The ocean is stunning with gorgeous white sand. Overall The Pearl is an amazing resort, not too far from the main area of town but far enough to be peaceful.

We stayed in the Suar Superior room and it was fantastic. Staff everywhere were brilliant . The restaurant crew were amazing( it was height of the season ) and in the evenings they were covering 3 areas, the beach, upstairs and downstairs with every table taken . Hardie ,Tom, Shorie and Yon went out of their way to help . The gardens were immaculate, and the beach loungers for guests only was good as mornings got really busy. We ended up eating at the restaurant often since their prices included the 10% service charge and the 11% tax. Most places quote their prices excluding these additions (read the fine print )so we thought the food prices were pretty competitive.

The hotel was in a perfect location, minutes away from the harbour and restaurants and night life. They kindly arranged a cake for my birthday and decorations. The breakfast was delicious, fresh pastries and fruit daily. Try their tropical juice, it was great. Their hospitality was faultless. Their connected spa also provided such great service. Their welcome drink was delicious!!! Would love to be back here again!

The hotel was in a good location away from the noise yet close enough to walk around for other options for dinner. The room was large, clean and comfortable. We had sufficient drinking water bottles in the room. The hotel staff are well trained, friendly and very helpful. I had arranged pickup fr Lombok Airport to the island. The hotel made all the necessary arrangements. The driver, Lalu, was very courteous and made us feel safe even when our arrival was late evening/ night. Our 4 hour snorkeling trip was great. The hotel had arranged a personal trip for us and it was worth it. The sea was beautiful, very clear and clean. We saw lots of turtles, fishes and corals. Overall it was a great 5 day 4 nights relaxing holiday. Would definately recommend travelling to Gili Trawangan and staying at the Pearl of Trawangan.

We stayed at this hotel for 9 nights, and our stay was perfect. What we liked here was the overall vibe, the beautiful garden, the semi outdoor bathroom, the cleanliness, the staff's attention to small details, their sincere desire for you to feel good. Of course there are things that can be improved as the hotel is not new. It happened that sometimes we received less water in the room than usual, or they forget to leave a towel, but these things are nothing, next to all the effort that the staff makes. The breakfast was very good. You can choose between several options (different types of eggs, avocado, fresh fruits, pancakes, english breakfast and many more), and no matter which one you choose, you will additionally receive a fresh juice, coffee, a fruit salad and a pastry, more than enough and very tasty. We ate almost all the meals at the hotel restaurant and the food was good and fresh. Maybe the prices are higher than in other parts, but honestly, they seemed low to us. To give you an idea, in 9 days, for 2 people, we spent approximately 350 euros, on meals, drinks and 2 massages at the hotel's spa. As for the spa, which is in a separate building, a short distance from the hotel, I can tell you that it was very good, the therapists are skilled, and the reception staff very kind. The hotel has its own beach, with sunbeds and umbrellas, and you can snorkel without problems, directly from the beach. Although the reef is not great, you can see some fish and if you're lucky and go a little further out, maybe even a turtle. All in all, I want to praise everyone for the way they strive to maintain the hotel, for the perfect garden full of frangipani, the clean beach and especially for the attention they give to tourists. If I could make a suggestion, it would be to install mosquito nets, because no matter how hard you try, and with all the anti-mosquito solutions that the hotel provides, mosquitoes still enter the room.
