I loved everything about my stay here! The communication before my arrival was perfect. I was picked up at the airport by the owner. The next day I did the most amazing jungle trek with the guide Bryan - I can highly recommend him! The place was so clean and comfortable. And the owner has the cutest dog and cat! Wish I could have stayed longer!

I don't even know where to start! Such an amazing location! The garden is incredibly beautiful, the location quiet and peaceful and yet in walking distance to a supermarket and the village. Clean rooms and facilities, mega comfortable beds, mosquito nets. So cozy! The kitchen! Ellie is a gem, her food and fresh fruit juices were absolutely outstanding. The staff in general was extremely helpful, responsive, very very sweet and made us feel right at home. They couldn't have a better crew to be running the place! Huge compliments, ya'll absolutely lovely people (and canines)! 🌼 Highly recommended to choose the jungle trek with Cheeky Monkeys as well! Our fantastic guides made it an unforgettable experience, it absolutely exceeded any expectations by far! Very empathatic, super patient, knowledgeable and respectful towards this special environment - we couldn't have imagined better jungle guides, nor a better trekking experience! 11/10 stars, thank you loads! 😍

We had an amazing stay at Batu Kapal Guest House! Bayu, Aji and the boys really made us feel at home. The location is truly beautiful, in the jungle with a nice river for swimming. The last day, there were even 3 orangutans in de trees just behind our room! The food was also great, we even got a small cooking class because we liked the BBQ chicken so much :) We will miss this place and hopefully we can come back one time!

Lovely spacious rooms with gorgeous balcony and view. Rooms were very clean with flushing toilets! Easy walk into town where there’s lots of restaurants and a supermarket. The owner and staff were lovely, friendly and very helpful. We felt very safe and welcome here. They cooked us lovely banana pancakes for breakfast and a lovely lunch.

Nicely located in rice fields and with fish ponds. Bayu is an excellent host. He organized everything (airport transfer, overland tour to Lake Toba, jungle trekking) very well. We would like to emphasize the lovely, experienced and super-supportive jungle trek team with Jajang, Dony and Henry. While Janang is very knowledgeable and showed us 7 Orang Utans, some Thomas Leaf‘s Monkeys and Brown-handed Gibbons, Dony and Herny, did everything to take my almost blind wife by their hands and guided her 6 hours through the jungle. They paid as much attention, that she did not stumble and fall. Bayu recommended to skip going south to Bukkitinggi and Padang in rainy saison and consider visiting Pulau Weh/Sabang. We followed his recommendation and it was an unique experience! Terima Kasih Bayu!

The warm welcome ! It makes your travel. I'm used to travel by my own and finding a human place where I feel like home is a gift. All the family here was respectful, gentle and kind with me. The quality for the price is superbe and you will be served if you look for adventure and nature. An immersive experience avoiding touristic places thanks to this accommodation that I deeply recommend. People that you meet is a big important of your travel and Grandma Guesthouse was. The plus : Yusuf, the owner, brought me to visit a school that he created for the village named "Kolibri", and it was one of my best experience meeting these kids in there environment and I'm not sure that I would have done that if I was in a popular hostel. Thank you for this trip !

    We had an awesome stay at Sama Sama Homestay. The owners are so welcoming, kind and friendly, so we directly felt comfortable. The brewed us delicious coffee each day and were always up for some nice and interesting smalltalk. The rooms are very comfortable and clean and we especially liked the balcony area to take some coffee and relax. We recommend a stay here!!

    Alek is the most helpful homestay host we have had. He managed to sort out our 3D2N trek the night before we wanted to go and he lent us his bike to travel to an ATM. The location is ideal and lots of nice places to eat right outside. Well worth the price!!
