Broken Compass

Nice and central. Pool was under construction so that was a little sad. Clean and nice rooms, and a big shared bathroom for girls/boys. Cheap diving

Hostel is currenly renovating the pool so a bit cheaper but also probably why it was so quiet while I was there- I did not mind personally for a short stay. Socials are happening in the sister hotel 2mins away. Comfy bed with lamp, storage, curtains, hangers on the side. No windows in the room & wifi was pretty bad. Decent bathrooms. Staff was nice & very helpful when I had an issue with the locker. Breakfast is quite basic. Very nice location!

Stayed in Gili castle 2 as under renovation. Great place. Awesome staff always on top form. Great party scene and so easy to meet people! You’ll feel very welcome 🙌 I shall be back

J’ai passé un séjour merveilleux. Le stade est chaleureux et les parties communes sont agréables.

Unreal. Super clean, reps were very inviting and excellent vibes all round even in off season. This one is a no brainer.

We stayed for 2 nights and had a great time! We booked the 3 person mixed dorm as two girls and when we arrived, they told us there was a guy in our room and they put us in a different one, which was really considerate and extremely nice as we then had one to ourselves! The staff were all really nice, especially Claudia and Ava ;) all of them made us feel really welcome and safe. It was an amazing part of our trip and we would definitely come back!

Super nice and clean! I enjoyed the daily activities along with the included breakfast and dinner. Although I was here in low season the reps keep the party going! Thanks to Danielle for being so friendly and for always making me feel included!

Did my first ever scuba dive here and it was amazing!! Definitely recommend everyone was so welcoming

Location was very easy to get to, and it was easy to join activities like family dinners, happy hour etc which are run via their other hostels. They also had activities like snorkelling trips and Padi cert depending what you’re after. The free breakie was very basic but a nice touch. The room was clean & comfy but the aircon didn’t work properly so we were too warm in the night, and the lock to the shower in our mixed dorm didn't work, which was uncomfortable. Good staff - I’d stay here ag...

Loved the stay here , good vibes , amazing ppl out there to help .

Nice enough place. We (a couple) were booked into a dorm but the air con unit was leaking badly, staff were very helpful and immediately offered us alternative accomodation in the private room which we really appreciated!! NOTE that the hostel is very close to one of the mosques on the island so it is very loud and you will hear the call to prayer at all hours including 5am. Not a fault of the hostel but useful info when considering booking 😊

Calm place if you don't like party hostels. The staff is friendly, you have a pool. It's clean and well located

Had a great stay! Staff was wonderful, special thanks to Rani and volunteers Leah, James, Ella, Ryan and Isla:) Went diving with the on-site diving school Viking Divers, would surely recommend!

It was a very nice hostel with good facilities and location. The staff were all very friendly and social. Would 100% visit again. Thanks to the staff and Ella, Eliza and Ryan!

such a great stay at broken compass, it was my first time on the island and they really made me feel at home, such an amazing community all the staff were great, would really recommend and look forward to going back :) James, Leah, Ella and Isla were great reps so welcoming and fun.

Lovely hostel! There are great activities to do and parties and stuff, but mostly at Gili castle, what is perfect! You get good sleep and good party. I want to thank Lea, Alisa, James, Ryan, Ella, Jess and all the other amazing reps who made the stay even better. Breakfast was also really good.

A quiet hostel but probably due to it being the end of the season. Great that there are activities at the hostel across the road that you can join. Food and staff were excellent. Rooms clean and comfy. My only complaint was that the doors to the room, although a keypad handle, were often left open, I feel these weren’t clearly explained to guests so they did not know. There are also only small lockers in the bed space, no locker for your big bag. All in all quiet but lovely, would stay aga...

i stayed in the broken compass hostel which is the chill atmosphere hostel. this was perfect as it was social during the day and had a good pool to swim and sunbathe in. during the evening i went to gili castle building one for the dinners and social events which was great. the reps James, Leah, ryan and Tom and Lucid was amazing. i booked two nights but extended for 9 night in total as i enjoyed it here so much. thank you to everyone for such a great stay

I loved my stay at Broken Compass. I wanted a calm environnement and it’s what I got. Clean hostel, nice pool, good breakfast. They also have a diving school which was great, loved to dive with them! If you want to party, they are affiliated with Gili Castle so Best of both world, party there, good night sleep back in the silence of Broken compass. I really recommend.

I LOVED my stay at broken compass! All the staff are so nice and helpful, the girl in reception knew the name of every guest! Very clean rooms and good AC, and the hangout area by the pool is super nice. Perfect mix of staying at a chill hostel but being able to join all the activities at Gili Castle (sister hostel) when I wanted to. And did my diving with the inhouse dive school Viking divers and had such a good experience, the instructors are amazing and I felt so safe. Can’t recommend enoug...
