Reviews of Mangga homestay Gili air 2 stars

Very good room!

I had such a lovely stay at Mangga Homestay. The rooms are simple but clean and comfortable, and the setting is peaceful with a nice local charm. The family who runs the homestay are incredibly kind and welcoming, they really make you feel at home on the island. The location is great too, close enough to the beach and restaurants but still quiet at night. Overall, a wonderful and affordable place to stay on Gili Air, I’d happily return!

Cleanliness, bathroom size, good location (if you walk in 15/20 minutes you can reach all points of the island), gym close to the property, some restaurants and minimarkets nearby, The mosque was not very loud, hot water, pressure of water, There is the kitchen, Pump to be able to use the large water bottle, Periodic cleaning and towel change, cleanliness and fragrance of towels, Simba (the cat)

Internet isn't always stable and powerful. Roosters crowing early in the morning. Very very low lighting on the ground floor

Nice room, very clean, staff is very helpful.

Not close to anything but not far either. An easy walk to anywhere.

Beautiful building in a central location on the island. I had 2nd floor which was so beautiful to walk out of the door and see the beautiful garden area Quiet and relaxed. Helpful, friendly staff. Rented a bike through the homestay. Bed was clean and comfy. aircon worked well. Nice lighting.

Minimalist but everything you need is there Very clean, kind personnel

Nothing

Loved it

I loved this homestay especially because the front desk staff/owners were easily reachable for me. I had all of the facilities I needed (small fridge and stove) for the kitchen, good bathroom and very comfy bed in a perfectly-sized room to fit my one suitcase, knapsack and purse. The interior looks exactly as indicated from bookings.com listing. Just perfect for me!

I would have loved to be closer to the ocean, but I did know the location when I booked! There was honestly nothing else I "didn't" like. In fact, I quite enjoyed taking a little longer walk over to my favourite section of ocean that I enjoyed visiting almost daily!

The bedroom had a comfortable double bed, a desk and chair inside and a small table and chair outside on the balcony. The wifi was good. The private bathroom had a shower, toilet, sink and small shelf. The shower water was only lukewarm. I was given 2 x free bottles of water for my two night stay which was a nice unexpected surprise

The booking reference indicated that breakfast was available as extra for an additional charge. However breakfast was not actually available

value for money for pleasant room

did not have soap. did not realize.

The wifi not is good

-the staff was very friendly and helpful -the room is quite small but has enough space for luggage -the bed was very comfortable with a proper blanket instead of bedsheets to cover yourself -the aircon is really strong -the bathroom is big and clean -breakfast was simple but delicious -quiet area of the island, still in walking distance to many restaurants and shops

-the wifi was not always working but that was no issue for me since I have a local sim card

Very good, room was very confortable and clean, recommended

The room was very comfortable and clean and the staff were very friendly.

It was a bit of a walk from the harbour.

- very very nice and helpful staff - Location (you can walk everywhere on the island in 15 minutes) - Breakfast basic, but good - Shampoo and shower gel available - Bed comfortable - Air conditioning good - very clean - offer snorkeling trips and transportation to other cities - balcony was very cool

- wifi was sometimes not so stable in my room (bad for working / meetings) - tried various wifis - no free drinking water - very basic, not modern - holes had been drilled in the bathroom window, which caused mosquitoes to come in from time to time

- Breakfast is included and it is okay - The guys on site were friendly and helpful - The AC works very very good at anytime of the day - Good budget option, close to the north beach

- You have to pay 5k for water refills - Some broken bathroom tiles are taped - The room is very small - You can hear every noise from outside, so the kitchen at breakfast time and people ordering woke us every morning up

Everything. Lovely accommodation and location, lovely staff, breakfast and reasonable price!

The room we stayed in was very nice and clean. The staff were really helpful and provided detailed information of things to do and visit on the island. Highly recommend.

The room is nice and doesn't get really bright in the mornings which is good for a sensitive sleeper like me. Couldn't hear the mosque. It's in a more rural part of the island but I wasn't disturbed by chickens. Bed is comfy, AC is strong. Hot water. When there was a power cut on the island the homestay still had electricity which was a godsend.

The room was simple but had everything you need. Bed was comfortable and all was very clean. Nice balcony to sit and enjoy breakfast or just relax. The breakfast was nice. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Nice to have bicycles on site to rent since it's not located close to any beaches.

It would be nice if mosquito nets were provided. I had my own in any case. If you're not going to get a bicycle and just walk, it is a bit away from the main area and beaches, so be prepared for a lot of walking. A bit expensive.

The place is great! Staff is nice, the room clean and everything functioning perfectly. It has hot water. The breakfast is very good. They rent bikes.

It's a bit far from the pier, but most of the street is cement, so if you have a bag with wheels is not a problem. You can hear the prays of mosque, but not too loud. The wifi is not the best. The bed was not too comfy.

The service from the team at Mangga was great. They were always happy to help. The daily breakfast is also a great plus.

Great place with great staff. Would come again when I’m on Gili Air.

Nothing really, it is a bit pricey.
