Kuno Villas

Amazing villa.food so good and very helpful staffs. Room so clean and eco friendly.we will come back imsure

Location is great.  It is located on the quieter part of the island if that's what you're looking for.  It is 100 m from the beach.  Although not located on the west coast, sunset can still be viewed from the beach closest to the hotel.  A few restaurants closed by, although they are more the upscale ones. 10 min bike-ride to the town, easily doable with our kids, around 10.  Advise here would be to stick to the routes proposed by Google.  Those are the main streets which are well lighted.  If you venture into some other streets, there is no guarantee of lights and road conditions, and that can get challenging after dark. The hotel is simply lovely. We had a villa.  The pool was great to have a dip, and for the kids to have some splash fun but not for swimming, it's too small.  The room was lovely, very neat and tidy, plenty of space for the 4 of us.  The kids loved the outdoor bathroom with fish pond. The breakfast was really good and tasty.  The only complaint I have is the portion.  It's ordered from the breakfast menu, the portion is just sufficient.  For those who prefer to have a bigger breakfast, it wasn't really enough. We forgot to pack torch lights for the bike.  Only on our last night, the personnel at the hotel offered lights for our bikes upon seeing us going out when it was getting dark.  At check-in, no one mentioned to us that those are available to borrow.  The conditions of the bikes were indeed not the best, multiple times we encountered problems with the bike for our kid.  Luckily it always happened when we had someone nearly who could give us a lift back.  Only on the 3rd day, after having to fix the bike twice, a different bike was given to us. All in all, we absolutely enjoyed our stay there, and would consider returning if we ever go back to Gili T!

The hotel employees were very nice, the room was clean and the pool was great. The hotel is located in a discrete location, close to the beach. Overall a very pleasant stay.

This was a treat as it’s a birthday celebration but it soon turned into a series of unfortunate events. The service and staff are amazing but their rooms have a serious bug problem. We woke up in the middle of the night to find our pillows covered with winged bugs that looked like ants, they were in the pillow and on the pillow, upon inspection there were more on the headboard and on the sofa by the window. We started to also notice dust piles on the floor in the room too, so we suspect they are eating at the wood. It was pretty alarming to find and have bugs crawling on your bed and we soon found out it was on our bags too. A staff member was quick to come to our room to inspect but the main team have already gone home. They allowed us to switch rooms but it looks like the problem is in the other room too. By the bed, more dust piles and on the sofa more bugs. It’s midnight so we sprayed the bed with bug spray and hope no more will crawl on us. As well as this their sink was blocked. We are both adventurous people, slept in the rainforest before, camped etc so we are not scared of bugs but when these could be termites or carpenter ants, our biggest worry is bringing them home. It’s not a nice situation for them either given their buildings are 200 years old. The next morning comes and the situation was not handled like a luxury hotel would. No one came to speak to us about it and no apology until I mentioned it at reception. The room they moved us to was also a smaller one so we effectively paid for a bigger room that we couldn’t stay in, this also wasn’t mentioned. There were positives like free bike usage, good cocktails, board games in lobby and a clean pool but I wouldn’t say this is a luxury hotel but more like a 3 star hotel with a 5 star mask. All in all, a birthday that wasn’t a treat.

Amazing experience with the staff and villas at Kuno Villas!!! They cover transportation to the villas, bikes, bug spray, towels, etc which is essentially everything you need for your stay at Gili T so it’s worth the splurge! It’s also located in the quieter north part of the island which is so nice and peaceful. Felt like a slice of heaven!!
