Pros:

I highly recommend Sumatra Ecolodge. It’s located in a truly unique spot, surrounded by jungle and right on the beach.
The property has only three bungalows, so it’s an incredibly peaceful place.
The sea is beautiful, I did a lot of snorkeling and I have see plenty of fish and even sea turtles.
Aris is the guy who runs the place; he’s kind, friendly, and always available to help or just chat and spend some time together.
The bungalows are simple but comfortable and have everything you need. It’s an eco-resort, built using recycled materials, with a strong focus on minimizing any impact on the surrounding nature. It would be unrealistic to expect the comfort of a 5 star hotel in the middle of the jungle ;)
Go there! it’s a little paradise🩵

Pros:

Beautiful location, nice food from the boat man’s wife, can access other islands by kayak

Cons:

Too many hidden fees for use of hotel equipment like snorkels etc, room is too expensive considering they don’t offer you towels, the shower was a hose pipe that burst open every time you showered and sprayed the whole room and the mosquito net didn’t fit the net and had over 20 holes in.

Verouderd en onveilig
Pros:

Locatie was fantastisch, echt een paradijs, alleen de accommodatie was gewoonweg onveilig, verouderd en ver beneden de maat. Alles, de huisjes en sanitaire voorzieningen moeten vernieuwd worden. Leek een scène uit expeditie Robinson. Maar onze host Horis was zeer vriendelijk en probeerde er op zijn manier de beste van te maken.

Cons:

Echt verouderd

Paradisiac and an adventure.
Pros:

The property was but anything that we had seen before. Hidden in the jungle startled by a beach on both corners, with animals running around. The houses were built totally by hand and breathtaking. Truly the perfect place to disconnect (literally since theres no cell connection).

Cons:

Since everything is diy there, leakages can occur during extreme storms.

Pros:

Extremely beautiful place and staff.
Big thank you to Aris and Inop!! ♥️

Cons:

We booked a middle price room and were put into the cheapest room. This was even not a problem for us but we ask back the difference in the price. The owner was not willing to, he even charged us more again for another night. Such a beautiful place and such an unwelcoming treatment.

Pros:

Bungalow direkt am (eigenen) Strand, sehr schöne Erfahrung und mir hat es an nichts gefehlt. Sehr nettes Personal, Essen wird per Boot gebracht und es können sehr schöne Boottrips sowie An- und Abreise organisiert werden. Außerdem durfte ich mir einen Schnorchel leihen und habe eine Schildkröte max. 50m vom Strand entfernt gesehen

Cons:

Pros:

The staff were excellent and super friendly.
The rooms are basic (which is the whole idea) but the location is amazing and the place where you stay is very clean.
