About

Welcome to Gili Pirates – your home on Gili T where unforgettable nights meet productive & laid-back days. We’re not just another party hostel… and we’re definitely not just about chilling either. We’re the perfect mix of both worlds. 🏴‍☠️🤿🪩

Picture this:

Start your day with a free breakfast, then head out for diving with our in-house dive school. Spend the afternoon by the crystal clear, big pool or just a 1-minute walk away at the turquise beach. And when the sun goes down? That’s when things really come alive. 🐠🌊☀️🏝️
We host daily evening activities – from drinking games and beer pong tournaments to our legendary Pirates Olympics. Expect free shots every night, great drink deals, free family dinners twice a week and a social vibe that makes it easy to meet people from all over the world. We’re deeply connected with the island scene, teaming up with other party hostels and organizing sunset boat cruises and offering access to the famous Gili Boat Party (twice a week).🎉⚓️🕺💃🏻🍹

The vibe?

Think of a tropical courtyard, pool in the center, clean minimal rooms with a tiny bohoo vibe – simple, bright, and designed for comfort and connection. Walking in for the first time you might not expect, that this place turns into the fun Gili T vibe during night.😜 Social when you want it, peaceful when you need it.🌺🌴🌱👯‍♀️

This hostel recently went through a lot of changes and you can really see the effort and love the manager and staff have put into this place. The vibe is cosy, clean and intimate and the hostel really has a family vibe compared to some of the other hostels on the island. You can party if you want, and you can chill if you want without any pressure from the staff or reps. It’s by far one of the best hostels i’ve stayed in the whole of south east asia and I would absolutely recommend to anyone.

In my whole 5 months of solo travel so far this is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. The atmosphere is unreal right when you arrive it feels like you’re apart of a huge family. Gili T is a bit of a party island haha but the reps and staff are not pushy with the partying like other spots. that being said had the best parties ever when we did go out! Beds are super comfy, the staff literally asked me if I wanted my room n beds cleaned everyday. And the dives you can do with the hostel are great
