Having stayed at two out of the three top party hostels in Gili Trawangan, My Mates Place easily wins the crown for Gili Trawangan’s best party hostel. Gili Trawangan has always had the stigma for being the ‘Party Island’ of the three Gilis and there are numerous restaurants and bars open until 2pm along the main strip and the beach, however most kitchens close around 11pm.. There isn’t an organized schedule like there is for the after-hours bars so you’ll have an array of bars with different vibes to choose from. Although they are missing a pool like Gili Mansion and Castle, they more than make up for this with their exceptional cleanliness, amazing party atmosphere, superior free breakfast, actual hot water showers and unequivocally awesome staff.
