The units at the villa complex feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. Some units include a terrace and/or a balcony with mountain views and an outdoor dining area. The units at the villa complex are equipped with a private bathroom equipped with a walk-in shower. We had a fantastic time with Sumatra Orangutan Trek. Everything was well organized from start to finish. The jungle trek was unforgettable. We saw several orangutans, gibbons, and other monkeys. The guides were knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the environment, always respectful of the wildlife. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful, making us feel at home right away. The accommodation was clean and comfortable. A perfect way to experience the jungle in a responsible and memorable way.

Situated in Tuapejat in the Sumatra region, Oinan Beach Villa has a balcony and sea views. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. Guests can make use of a garden. My family and I had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful, newly built villa as the first guests. The house is very bright, lovely decorated and very spacious. It's situated directly on the stunning white sand beach with a wonderful view of the turquoise ocean and nearby little islands. It has two bedrooms, well well-equipped kitchen and large living areas. We were warmly welcomed by a manager at the harbour. All the transportation, boat trips to the islands and the car rental were also easily arranged for us by the owner. The villa is situated in the heart of the main village, so you have easy access to the shops and local warnings. You can watch the fishermen in the morning and easily blend with the local people who are always incredibly friendly.

The air-conditioned holiday home consists of 1 bedroom, a living room, a fully equipped kitchen with a fridge and a coffee machine, and 1 bathroom with an a bath or shower and a hair dryer. Towels and bed linen are offered in the holiday home. The property offers sea views. We wanted somewhere different to spend Christmas and came across Valhalla house online, the house was as amazing as it looks in the pictures and was right on the beach that you have to yourself! The house was clean & comfortable and had everything we needed - water, towels, cooking facilities etc! As the island was quite remote we were struggling to find how to get there and get around but Marcelo, the host, went above and beyond to help us out with flights and ferries. His communication was great, and he gave us some great food recommendations as well as a contact for surf lessons, which we all really enjoyed on Christmas day, and was just so helpful with all of the questions we had! Marcelo also put us in touch with a local, Dolman, who drove us to and from the airport, even though the roads were bad he made it so easy for us to get around by providing bikes at a really good price. Overall we had an amazing stay at Valhalla and would recommend it to anyone who wants a relaxing time on a paradise island, surrounded by local culture, beautiful beaches and lots surfing!!

Set in Tuk Tuk in the Sumatra region, Summa Terra has a garden. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi.

The holiday home is composed of 1 bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and 1 bathroom. The accommodation is non-smoking. Amazing location! Right by the lake, you can just walk down and take a swim. Even at night it's really beautiful. There are many restaurants within walking distance as well. The house itself was comfortable. The host Ranti was great as well! She's really funny and helpful. She helped us to book motorbikes and a day tour, both which turned out amazing. It's really convenient to get a ferry back to mainland as well. The ferry can stop right at the house to drop you off/pick you up.

Providing garden views, Rinte Green Village & Bukit Lawang Jungle Trekking in Bukit Lawang provides accommodation, a garden and a bar. Every room is equipped with a terrace with mountain views and free WiFi. Be ready to dive into adventure right from the moment you are met by host in the nearby village. A halfhour motorbike ride and a walk along riverbed and you are reaching a villa situated right in the midst of the jungle. If you are a nature lover like we are, don’t think twice - just book the place and enjoy the vacations. On other day we were guided by Byke and Fahid into the depths of jungle looking for orangutans, which were kindly enough to greet us from the trees on a stretched hand distance. All in all it was an excellent idea to book that place, don’t miss the opportunity to live amidst jungle comfortably.

Situated in Bukit Lawang, Magpie homestay & jungle trekking especially for guest trekking with us features accommodation with seating area. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. Rooms have a balcony with views of the garden. This was by far our best stay during our whole trip in Indonesia. The bungalows were both very comfortable, we stayed in one before and the other one after the jungle tour. The place is beautifully decorated with a lot of plants and animals to see in the garden. The owner was super friendly and helped us to arrange the 3-day jungle tour, a village tour, transportation to and from Bukit Lawang, the food, and she even gave us medicine when we were ill. There is a restaurant on the property, at which you can order delicious food any hour. Such a lovely stay, this made our time in Bukit Lawang unforgettable! Thank you so much for everything!
