We stayed for 2 days at Mad Monkey and Rian was the best host we could have ever asked for. He spoke with us about his life and how much he loves Gili T and made us feel at home. The restaurant and the hostel were amazing and I highly recommend coming here for him and this amazing place

"The brownie with vanilla ice cream, berry sauce, and mint looks like a delightful treat! The combination of textures and flavors—warm brownie, cold ice cream, sweet berry sauce, and fresh mint—made my day."
