10/10
I had an absolutely amazing stay at Mandalika Cottage on Gili Trawangan! The location is perfectโclose enough to walk to everything but tucked away just enough to enjoy peace and quiet at night. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay: a fridge, drinking water, AC, and hot water. The breakfast was delicious and filling, setting me up perfectly for a day of exploring.
Ela and the owners were incredibly welcoming and friendly, going above and beyond to make my stay memorable. I especially appreciated the homemade kombucha, which was a unique and delicious treat! They also shared fantastic tips for scuba diving and snorkeling, which made my adventures on the island unforgettable. I can't recommend Mandalika Cottage enoughโit's a perfect little oasis with all the amenities, warmth, and charm you could hope for!
