Could be a tokek, very similar to the regular cicak (in bahasa) or gecko, usually darker in colour and larger.
They also have a very distinctive call, and they can bite!
Usually when Indonesians hear this call, they say that a visitor will turn up shortly :) Same goes for butterflies near house now I think about it.
Also another belief about the gecko's is if they fall on you during the night, its usually a bad sign, of a death or illness.
