Incredible stay

Stayed in March 2025

Location is on the dirt (unlit during the night) road, 5 minutes from the beach. They don't check if the bikes you rent are in working order. Poor breakfast choice (but tasty) which you must order the night before (and choose the exact time).

Clean and lovely designed rooms and the whole hotel. Nice pool surrounded by trees and greenery. Great staff.

It has been a pleasure to spend a few days in The Barefoot Blondie Villa, the personal is super available, kind and always ready to help Nice breakfast in the morning and very calm and cozy swimming cool, I recommend

- mind the location as it is not next to the beach - if it rains you need to walk through mud to enter and get out of the hotel. There was no other way. This was a significant down point in our stay. Simply they could have put some larger stones or invested a bit more for 20 meters and improved the road in and out of accommodation - if you have the option to pay at the property and you want to pay with the card, they try to charge 3% more. This was not acceptable and never happened with other accommodations we had throughout our trip (and I must say we stayed long and used over 8 accommodations)

The place is new, with a great design and investment in details (candles in the room, provided mosquito repellent, the shampoo and soaps smelled so good). We also used the pool and the garden is very peaceful and nice. Breakfast also was very good.

The homestay is in a super nice quiet area, and still super near to café’s, restaurants and the beach. The staff is super helpful and nice! The rooms are beautiful, you can see that a lot of love has been put into the whole concept.

I'd prefer if the place was for adults only as there was one family staying on their premises and the kid would scream all day around the pool area, sometimes waking me up at 8am. It was not possible for me to enjoy the pool during the day when they were using it.

It was the cleanest place I've stayed at during my holidays in Indonesia. The room is very comfortable. The staff are friendly and polite. The breakfast was a real breakfast! Not some cheap toast bread. They also accommodated it to my vegan diet and I'm very grateful for that. I really think they should have it in their standard menu! It was delicious! I was afraid to be woken up by the mosque in Gili air but the room is well isolated. I didn't wake up even once because of the 5am prayer call during my 5day stay.

I enjoyed a lot my stay at The Barefoot Blondie Village. The staff was always kind, friendly and ready to support for each request. My room was very clean and orderly. In the breakfast menu there is a big choice of foods and drinks. I would love to come back to the Barefoot Blondie one day. Heartfelt thanks for everything 🙏🏻

Well, noting really bad about it especially because the labours were really respectful and they did not bothered us at all with the noise, but as they are developing the little resort they are still working around and that could bother someone but not us. A part from that there has been really nothing we can say we did not like!

The staff was very friendly and hands on other then easy approachable. The system they have in place to deliver breakfast (as there is not a full operative restaurant) is working well, even though I have to say that the fruit could be fresher (but it was good) and they could offer a bit more alternatives, especially implementing some local traditional food options. That would makes the difference. :) At least for people like, as when we travel we love to taste different flavours locally sourced. If you are going to Gili Islands and are looking to relax but without too many compromising, well I guess Gili Air is the right balance between everything. Quite a lot of tourist but almost the same number of locals.

Open window in bathroom.

Everything is there and the vibe is really relaxed like the island itself. Loved the espresso martini at the barefoot bar. Pool is great!

Staff was very helpful! accommodation was clean and we had a lovely stay. Bonus was the including breakfast :)

Stayed in October 2023

We loved everything about our stay! The room was so beautiful and clean, the staff was very kind, the breakfast delicious, lovely swimming pool, great shower! We first stayed at a different accommodation on Gili Air and changed to this one. Best decision ever - we loved every minute of our stay.

A lot of renovation work going on around the island, here was no exception. But it was never disturbing, no noise to cause complaint !

Loved the calm location, friendliness of all the employees, they were always very helpful and attentive ! Pool was great. They can organise bike rentals for you if needed (50K/bike) !

I loved the bathroom. The rooms were clean but a little bare. I also liked the outdoor seating area. It was too bad the pool bar tarp was up but it was nice when it came down. There was a lot of dirt leading up to the rooms so I found it was hard to keep our feet clean. A towel on the ground outside the room helped that. I also found the prices quite high for a one bedroom and child bed. The staff were lively and very accommodating.

In the night the way to the place was a bit dark, so I recommend that you take a flashlight. I sleep with an eyemask because the room is not so dark

Location was very close to everything, clean, new, very nice style. Super friendly staff🙏 so grateful for them. The shower with open roof was amazing

Very calm place to stay. It is near from the beach and restaurants.

The room was beautiful and comfortable. There is enough space for your bag in the walk in closet and the breakfast at the barefoot blondie hotel is the best!

Stayed in July 2023

the hotel is pretty far from the harbor and the cafe where we checked in (around 700m). the road leading to the hotel was dark and covered in dust. we had luggage so it was kind of annoying that we had to carry heavy suitcases along bumpy and dusty road. the dirt road leading to the hotel could've benefited from better lighting and a probably a signage. it'd be nice if there's a cafe or maybe a tiki bar at the hotel area

the hotel was nice and quiet, cute bungalows with a small porch. nice pool area in the middle of the garden, not too big with a few loungers. the place is surrounded by trees, and a walking distance (about 300m) from the beach. bed was comfy, love the bathroom, high ceilings and bright lightings. bath products smelled great. they have a cafe just a few meters from the harbor, it's really nice and the food was great. really love the cafe and the staffs were super friendly. they gave discount for hotel guests. there's a bike rental near the hotel, the staff can help you with it. the staffs were very friendly and helpful. they helped us with our luggage to the port at the end of our stay

Could have had a better lit and signposting on the dirt road down to the hotel. Road was fine for us with backpacks but could be cumbersome if you had luggage as bumpy and very dusty. No safe in the rooms.

Beautiful outdoor bathroom/bath shower with lovely spa products and nice quiet location close to good eateries and beach

Nothing!!

Couldn’t have had a better experience!! 2 nights wasn’t enough! The room and facilities were all amazing, the bathroom was brilliant! Great pool with lots of loungers and fabulous location on the island! The staff were the most loveliest people ever and I definitely also recommend the Barefoot Blondie cafe on the island too - equally as amazing!

Stayed in June 2023

really didn’t want to leave!

the outdoor bathroom was amazing, something so special about showering outside under the trees, the spa bath was huge but didn’t have time to try it, hopefully next time! bed huge and comfy, aircon great also. the pool very nice and quiet, 5 min walk from the beach. nice smelling products also.

the road leading to the property was very dusty and dark at night. would be good to have breakfast included (maybe in the future that could be an option)

Nice and quiet, close to the beach very clean and comfortable loved the outdoor bathroom and the bath products ❤️ so nicely scented I would have them at home

Loved my stay here. Cute room with thoughtful little touches like walk- in wardrobe area and full length mirror. Outdoor bathrooms are gorgeous. Lovely pool area. It’s a few mins walk to some of the best sunset beaches on the island, so location is perfect. Thanks so much Judith and team, hope to be back asap! X
