Very relaxing stay
Really liked this place. The tents are very large and comfortable and I was surprised to find air con works great in a tent. The place feels clean and open. The service was excellent and all of the staff super friendly and helpful. Use of free bicycles was a treat and made it easy to get around to the island. Food was good and we enjoyed the included breakfast each morning. Would definitely stay here again and recommend this place to other travelers.

This property is absolutely stunning. It is on the quieter side of Gili T which was perfect for the holiday that I had planned. The property offers free push bike use and snorkelling equipment which I made use of for the entire stay. La Cocoteraie is a hidden gem on Gili T and so unique in comparison to many other properties on the island. The staff and owners are super friendly and helpful too. Thank you so much!

Everything was awesome, from the check in, welcoming and nice staff, food was good and the tents large and comfortable. They offer free bycicles and the swimming pool is nice too. Avoid Bahari snorkelling tour (nothing to deal with La Cocoteraie but recommended by them) as we “lost” a lot of money from our wallets left in our bag on the boat while snorkelling. We overall loved our stay there and definitely recommend!

Really great place. Tents are a good size with comfy beds and good size bathrooms with a nice hot shower. The commons areas of the hotel are nice and comfortable and the food there is nice and made fresh. The hotel is about a 10 minute cycle from the main strip of shops and restaurants so I wouldn’t recommend if you want to be right in the middle of the action. I loved the place and would definitely stay again!

Thank you for your review. We are glad you found our tents beautiful and that you enjoyed our restaurant. We are sorry to hear that you found our tents a bit overpriced, but we provide 2 breakfast, 2 bikes (which is rp.100,000 saving a day for 2), 2 snorkelling equipments with fins, mask and tuba, which is another rp.100,000 savings a day, plus the watergalon in your room where you can refill your bottles for free. On top of that, we import the water so our guests can have a fresh water shower instead of a salty one as provided in many other places. Regarding the privacy, indeed the concept is tents so we don't have concrete walls. We hope to see you again in our Glamping. Take care

We had an awesome nights sleep and would definitely recommend a stay. The whole hotel was beautiful and the pool was lovely and refreshing.

Amazing staff. Very cool concept. Well maintained and passionate owner/staff. Be aware that the location isn't the best. Also, tents are not sound proof, so noisy. Not the most practical either, with zipping in and out to get access. But overall, very cool!

Beautiful oasis
A beautiful place to escape from crowds and noise. Although the entire island gives you that privilidge in La Coco you have the amazing staff topping it up to a private and exclusive level. They are very friendly, attentive, focused on your comfort and make sure you enjoy your stay. Amazing food and ambiance. Starts with a very warm welcome and a refreshing welcome drink they seat you nicely to explain you about the island first. They have recommendations for best sunset best food best drink best swimming and snorkeling spot etc and hand you a small map. Your private safe box includes 2 sets of snorkels, 2 torches and locks for your tent. Then you are accompanied to your luxurious tent . Very specious, all the details are thought of for you. The pentire property and its grounds are very very well kept and clean. You have to try the food , you wont go anywhere else during your stay. Mix of local delicious choices to some international dishes, snacks you can find them in La Coco with top quality ingredients. The only disturbing fact was the construction noise coming from next door and team La Coco were very concerned about their guests comfort due to that but hey it was a small price to pay for such a great stay; anyway it is just a temporary thing. Dont miss out this exceptional glamping experience!

Alternative eco themed accommodation
Exceptional staff, quirky relaxing eco environment. Tents can get stuffy and the aircon doesn’t do much for relief. Unfortunately there is construction going on right next door from 9-5pm so we only ended up staying one night due to the noise of bandsaw all day. Great place to stay if you are into eco living, don’t mind the heat and are out during most the day on island activities. Staff were exceptional with helping us change locations without making us feel bad about our choice to move to different accommodation

Amazing stay in the palms but near to beach
We loved our stay here. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind and made us feel so at home. We were only here for 1 night and definitely would have liked to stay longer. We used the bikes and cycled round and went for dinner to their recommendation which was and delicious and beautifully set amongst the trees on the beach. Definitely would recommend. the pool was great to relax by and we had a yummy lunch whilst we waited for our horse cart (which they organised) back to the ferry.

Glamping with Aww
I loved it! Although i wished i had someone to share the experience, unfortunately i was alone. However, the staff made me feel comfortable. I love the rustic feel of the lobby/restaurant. The lounge area by the pool was comfy. The tent - glamping with style literally. I entered my room, nothing but smiles and joy. Although for me alone, to zip up everything was tough - but hey safety comes first! The place itself already made me feel safe. Room has no tv, but this makes up for more quality time to interact with your partner. Despite the aircon not easily filling up the room, but hey the fan did just as good. Love the breakfast selection, and the staff have you to pre-select your option a day before. Good for non-morning talking people, which can have you just sit and wait for your breakfast to arrive. Love the free bicycle, and snorkelling gear on standby in your personal locker before you leave. Love the pool which has no or less traces of cholorine in it. Didn't spoil my hair. Location feels like you're in the woods, but you'e just 10-15mins short walk, or 5mins bicycle ride to the amazing sunset everyday.

Unique eco experience on beautiful island
We had a great stay on Gili T staying at La Cocoteraie Ecolodge set with the quieter northwest of the island just away from the beach. As regular campers back in the UK we enjoyed this unique stay in a luxury tent. Spacious, clean and tidy with well equipped bathroom. A/C and a fan I s provided in each lodge to ensure you are comfortable when needed. Breakfast is included with lots of choice for all tastes and appetitive. Great social lobby area where all guests mingle especially during happy hour before heading out to watch the sunset from the nearby western beach. Cycles provided as it is a good walk to the main east beach. Also provided with beach towels, beach bag, torches and snorkel equipment for all guests so no need to hire. Not an experience for all but for the more adventurous looking for something different you will love La Coco and their great staff!

Great concept and amazing staff!
We loved staying here and ended up booking an extra night because we didn't want to leave! The bungalow tents are lovely, and great to stay in if you want something a bit different from a normal hotel experience. It feels like you're camping out in nature but with all the mod-cons such as A/C in the tent bedroom, fan, hot water, plug sockets. A huge tank of drinking water is provided in the room so you don't need to waste lots of plastic bottles. The location is nice, very quiet location in the woods and near to the best beach to watch the sunset from. Each guest has use of their own bike (with headlamps provided for after dark) and snorkelling equipment, so you can relax and visit different beaches in the day, and in the evening it's a short bike ride to the busy east coast of the island where most of the restaurants and all the party bars are! Then you can wake up and have breakfast on your bungalow porch and relax at the nice quiet pool to recover! For us, the best feature of the hotel was the amazing staff who run it. Such a lovely bunch of people who looked after us really well, gave us advice and were just generally nice to chat to. The property only has 8 bungalows so it has a very personal, community feel.

LOVE IT SO MUCH!!
We LOVE the place!! Wanna stay there as longer as possible! But such a pity we only can stay for one day. It's an environment-friendly place( so also friendly to mosquito..), we like the idea when we saw it on Hotels.com, but totally in LOVE after living there, it's even better than the pictures because the hotel's idea is talking about the experience, everything is so nice, please don't think it is a five stars hotel, it's not luxury and not commercial, but it's an interesting experience as like living in the forest! The staff are all very kind, we had a very warm welcome when we arrive, the staff treat us like their family, explained the island where we can go and see(we never have this treatment in other hotels, the bicycle and the snorkels are free for guest! That's SO SWEET! I do really love these tiny thoughtful things, that makes your stay very comfortable because they have thought and arranged for you in advance. The location is nice, we don't like crowded and busy, here is not crazy as like east side very calm and nor far away from the beach(it's not at the beach), but you can just ride bicycle to everywhere you want to go, on the way you can enjoy the local people's life that is what I always do.

Pros: - Unique experience staying in a tent instead of your normal brick and mortar hotel rooms - Friendly and attentive staff that will do their best to cater for your needs - Beautiful resort landscaping and the decor at the lobby - Sumptuous food and having the option to have breakfast at own room is a big plus - The resort management goes the extra mile by providing free bicycle, head torchlight and snorkeling gear for their guests Cons: - The resort is located near Gili Trawangan's dumpsite in which you can smell the smoke when they burn the garbage at night and it gets smoky everywhere - The tent gets a bit hot during the day

Luxury camping at its best
The moment we arrived we were greeted by the manager (Dennis), who was very thorough in providing us with information regarding our stay and the island in general. The luxury tent was exactly that, luxurious, with a beautiful outdoor bathroom. Although La Cocoteraie was a bit further away (compared to many other accommodations) from the central hub of the island, there were bikes provided for you, as well horse/carriage rides available on request. The swimming pool was a bit small, but the beach was only a bike ride away. The staff and owners were very accommodating and willing to make your stay as pleasant as possible. It is definitely a great place to stay if you're looking for a quiet place and/or the camping experience.
