Gangga accommodation from NZ$96

An unbelievable experience from beginning to end - gorgeous large rooms and balcony, exceptionally kind and helpful staff, super filling and expansive breakfast. I would come back here in a heartbeat

We had booked our stay at Pearl of Trawangan with the clear understanding that breakfast was included in the room rate. However, the actual experience was quite disappointing and misleading. At the restaurant, the “included breakfast” was limited to just one juice and one main dish per person. While the staff kept emphasizing that this was “free,” it did not feel like a proper included breakfast as typically expected at a hotel of this category. There was no buffet or flexibility, and any additional items were chargeable. Additionally, there was a safety concern during our stay. There was an exposed/open nail outside our room, which could have easily caused injury. When we reported this, the staff did fix it, but the way it was handled made it seem like they were doing us a favor rather than addressing a basic safety issue that should have been proactively managed. This creates a gap between what is advertised during booking and what is actually delivered on-site. When a hotel mentions “breakfast included,” guests generally expect a more comprehensive offering, not a restricted set menu with minimal options. Overall, while the property itself may have its positives, these issues felt misleading and impacted our experience. I would strongly recommend that the hotel clearly communicate the exact breakfast inclusions at the time of booking and ensure basic safety standards are properly maintained to avoid inconvenience to guests.

Lovely staff. Property is looking perhaps a little tired, but it is a good hotel and I’d stay here again.
