Love Bale Sampan Bungalows! Its a lovely boutique property, the bungalows are modern & well maintained. It's right on the beach, snorkeling & turtles out front, and super close to restaurants and everything you need. The restaurant is fabulous and the staff super helpful. We come back every year and it never disappoints.

The staff here is very attentive to your needs. Good location, not too far from nightlife but far away enough to sleep well at night. Nice food for breakfast and lunch. Sunbeds on the beach and very close to turtle beach.

Loved our stay at Bale Sampan. The staff are fantastic and helpful. Air conditioning was great, bed firm and loved our “towel creations”! Location to beach and snorkeling (right where the turtles are) was awesome. Free breakfast was fantastic. Can be a bit noisy due to prayer call but you do get used to it. (They provided us with ear plugs!)

Good value

The rooms are good, clean, comfortable and practical with plenty of power points, fridge and tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast was good. The location was good and in the main strip. The only negative is that the rooms don’t have a view and are located behind the street front restaurant. The beach is only a few meters from the restaurant.

Book it, you won't regret it!

My brother and I had an awesome stay during Fen '18, Muhtar was super helpful and Kate gave us some helpful tips. Brilliant location, clean beach and some lovely snorkeling right off the beach. Highlight of our trip was the turtles. Will love to return some day. Our 4 night booking became 6 then 7 nights!!!

Clean, spacious, great value Beach Bungalow.

Check in was easy, we had one of the two bungalows by the pool, which is closer to the cafe, the road and the beach. Spacious well appointed bungalow, big bed (King?) and a single too, well thought out small details, a place to hang clothes, a mini fridge/bar, air con worked great, high ceiling w/fan, cool semi outdoor bathroom/shower, nice soaps/shampoo, etc.They have a great binder in the room with lots of helpful information about the hotel, cafe, island and other businesses to support. All of the staff were always helpful, courteous, respectful and friendly. They seem to be making constant repairs/upgrades to the bungalows. Bike rentals too. Kate the Manager was available to answer some questions also. The beach area is great, we were able to snorkel right off the beach and see thousands of fish, a few turtles (walk up the beach for about 5 minutes and snorkel back with the current, turtles feed in the sea grass beds. Good beach chairs and cafe service to the beach also. I would highly recommend this bungalow hotel, your close enough to "downtown" Gili T on the east side but yet far enough away from the super busy action.

Good Location if you want to be near the action.

We enjoyed our three night stay here. The location is very convenient, close to many restaurants and the snorkeling just out front was the best we enjoyed of the 3 islands. The bungalows are set back far enough from the street to be very peaceful and quiet. Staff was friendly and helpful, and the bungalow was very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend if you want to stay in town while on Gili T.

Terimakasih Bale Sampan!

Literally a 5-10 min walk from the main strip...a 30 second walk to the beach where you can have the opportunity to witness a beautiful sunrise. The hotel itself was great, good size rooms, partially open top, very spacious bathroom. The breakfast options were great with the cafe conveniently located at the front and the staff were really friendly and accommodating.

Lovely little villas.

Cute villas. Well kept and clean. Helpful happy staff, very friendly. Nice pool outside our room. Clean, well maintained beach area. Food at cafe was great. Awesome breakfasts! Loved the Taco salad and spring rolls. Currently working in front which was kept as tidy as possible at all times. Slightly away from 'busy' part of island which was nice.
