A beautiful homestay on the shore on Samosir island, with rooms overlooking a garden and the lake Toba. The rooms are very comfortable and peaceful. Dimmer, the owner, is very friendly and helpful, and very responsive on Whatsapp. He helped me arrange transfers from Medan airport and to Berastagi, and picked me up from the Parapat ferry by car. It is also possible to rent scooters to explore Samosir on your own. Overall, I had a fantastic stay, also as a woman travelling alone, and I only regret not staying longer !

Amazing holiday in a beautiful place on the river bank in Bukit Lawang. The hospitable owner helped to bring the luggage to the room and organized an amazing two-day trek into the jungle to see orangutans. The room is clean with a wonderful veranda overlooking the river. I recommend this guesthouse to anyone who wants to visit Bukit Lawang

La belle was a lovely spot to stay, super close to HTS and very peaceful. Pretty low key if ya just want to cruise and surf and relax - not heaps of bungalows so more of a slow pace environment for those recluse and solo time searching traveler’s Very clean very comfy Food was wicked EFT available which was awesome Scooter hire/ wifi Great stay Would recommend

Good host (Dong&Siska) for being so informative on suggesting where to go,where to take a ferry,they also provide bike rental.The room is nice and in front of the stay got a good cafe for me to find for breakfast,lunch or dinner..those solo traveller might like it because the cafe got live band performance twice a week and I didn't mind the noise coming for it honestly because I can still manage to sleep peacefully safe and sound due to the whole day spent moving around the island😂

Romlan Guesthouse exceeded my expectations with the Lake Toba view and the lakeside view from my room. Moreover, my room is close to the guesthouse restaurant/counter. The guesthouse's restaurant has a great variety of food, but I recommend tourists try out their local food like Mie Gombak. The guesthouse is well-decorated and has a Hawaiian beach vibe to it. Overall, my stay there is great and fun. The staff there are also helpful and friendly. Thank you Romlan!

The place is peaceful and beautiful at sunset. The garden is very well taken care of. Here we tried probably the best noodles of our holiday.

Perfect family run stay in Bukit Lawang. Perfect location next to the river and a beautiful garden. The 5 rooms are basic, especially shower and toilet but that is part of the charm (at least to us).Who needs hot water next to the jungle?!! Staff and location perfect, everybody is super friendly and helpful. We had laundry done and costs were ‘whatever you want to pay for it’. They organise trekkings, trips, whatever you want. Out trip was great, nice guides, easily adapting to what we wanted and were able to do.

The staff is very kind and helpful, they will help you arrange tours, trips and transportation. Food is excellent! The beach is a few minutes walk (or boat), but you can enter the water from their jetty and swim or snorkel. So many fish!

Very nice location, up the hill, overlooking the ocean and with direct access to the reef with a million tropical fishes. Our host Wiggy was extremely helpful in getting us a motor bike, recommending a guide for a snorkeling trip and he gave us tips about where to go and to eat! We had a great 5-days on Pulau Weh!

Gorgeous location, super friendly staff and house reef just off the beach. The bungalow was a welcome slice of comfort with free hot and cold water on tap, couches, lovely bathroom and private balcony. Comfy bed with linen. Would love to come back.

Truly exceptional, couldn’t recommend this place more. Hervin, Rivaldi & Nola really do go above and beyond with their kindness & hospitality. Truly made me feel home the entire stay, it’s been really sad leaving this place behind! Location is great for people who like to be away from the city bustle and embrace some nature and surfing down at the beach while still maintaining a short scooter ride to town! Rooms are warmly and thoughtfully decorated and cozy with beautiful views of the garden & ocean. Absolutely loved it!
