Gelatik B&B - Hostel

This hostel was amazing! It was clean, nice, and very comfortable. The staff was so kind and always smiling. The owner was so friendly and helpful with everything that I needed. I definitely recommend staying here.

This is an AMAZING hostel! Joanna and all the staff are honestly the most loveliest and friendliest people ever, you feel so welcome. The breakfasts are great and are cooked fresh for you, as well as free tea and coffee all day. This is a great place to chill and work if you want to. Nice pool and beanbags. Beds are super comfy and there's 2 showers and toilets in each dorm. This isn't the most social place (if you're looking for a party hostel this isn't for you) however I found it very easy to meet people and it was actually a chilled and quiet atmosphere. 5 min walk to the beach. There's also a local warung which does food for around 20k and its delicious. I've stayed here twice on my trip and would go back again!

My friend and I have been travelling Bali for 2 weeks, we thought we’d stay here for our last 2 nights as it had good reviews. Unfortunately, after our first night we both woke up with bites & were really itchy. Initially, we thought it could be a jellyfish sting as we went snorkelling on the day after our first night but the next day we woke up WORSE! We also went snorkelling with a third friend who stayed elsewhere and had no bites. We saw a doctor today (19/04/23) after we checked out, who confirmed it was bed bug bites & gave us some cream and a tablet. We had left our bags at the property as we weren’t going to the airport until 8pm. When we went to retrieve our bags, we told the owner about the issue we were having and explained the story to her & what the doctor said & she basically blamed us for getting them today! Even though I showed her photos & text messages time stamped during our stay of the bites. (Photos also show the room) I even had a photo from 3am on our first night when I messaged my boyfriend to tell him I couldn’t sleep because I was so itchy and showed him the bites. Owner will most likely deny, but we took a recording of her blaming us & we have evidence in photos and videos of our bites!! BE WARY!!! She wouldn’t even tell the people who checked into our room after us, we tried to knock on the door to tell them but no one was there. If you are reading this and staying in room 305 BEWARE!!!!!!!!

Loved my stay here. Lovely pool area with lounger beanbags. Quiet and cold AC in the dorm room. On a quiet road. Nice terrace to eat breakfast of eggs, toast, and fresh fruit. Close to an amazing poke bowl restaurant and several mini marts. Kitchen to cook and store items in the fridge. Hot and cold water on tap. 10 minute walk to the beach. Would stay here again!

Joanna is the perfect host! She was so helpful with us. Breakfast was good. Also. The room was very clean. The location was good, near the beach, shop and almost everything. .Would definitely come back!
