We have stayed at the Gong for the past 11 nights and could not recommend it enough. Not only is it a fantastic place to stay it is also well within budget. The room we stayed in had a fly net and simple fan but remained cool throughout the day and night. The room was cleaned daily and has been... More

I've stayed at the Gong 3 times now. It's great value for money. 10mins walk from Uluwatu Beach or you can rent scooters. The pool is really nice. It's got a good restaurant too. The family who run the place are so friendly and helpful. Met some really good friends there, will be recommending it to many more travellers!

The hotel had charm, it was like living within a temple, nice and relaxed, no noise or mad partying. Me and my gf stayed in room 105 which was a detached villa and very spacious, but one night it howled with wind and rain and things were banging and bumping. A roof panel was being blown about and was knocking... More

We stayed at The Gong from 23rd to 28th March 2013. The place is in a fantastic location for surfers, Uluwatu is 2km away and easily walkable. Not to forget Pandang Padang beach, Balangan beach, Dreamland, Impossibles and Uluwatu Temple are easily reachable by scooter which you can rent from The Gong. The place is well kept, the pool is...

I have been meaning to write reviews on TripAdvisor for the past year and this is the first one I'm doing since I loved The Gong so much. We randomly stumbled upon The Gong (although it was in my Lonely Planet book, I just hadn't read the Uluwatu section yet) and planned on staying one to two nights. We stayed... More

As a french, I apologize for my english. This place was a real daily dream for me as I had to relax before keeping on riding my bicycle to Australia. I am making a world tour... The Gong willl definitively remain one of the best address where I stayed on my route from France. People managing the place, Karmun, Weni,... More

I'm sure if you're coming to Uluwatu to surf and are looking for a smokin' good deal then the Gong is for you. This isn't the kind of room you want to kick back and relax in. It's pretty bare bones. The light didn't work in our bathroom (flickered like a strobe light) so I'm thankful I packed a headlamp.... More

Spent a whole month at "The Gong" in Nov 2012. Heading back in February to stay for 2 more months.Get off your plane grab a taxi should cost no more than 200,000 rp to get to Uluwatu. Rent your scooters at the Gong and drive less than 2 minuets to Uluwatu Beach or Uluwatu Temple in under 5 mins. Padang... More

Loved staying at The Gong. Very nice pool, rooms are clean, food is cheap and tasty (especially the milkshakes, iced tea, and lemongrass nasi goreng), and the staff, especially Kadek, were so friendly and honest. We stayed twice during our month in Bali, and if we make it back again, we will be sure to stay there again!
