Stayed here before and after a mentawai trip. THIS IS HE BEST PLACE TO STAY IN PADANG. Great location but the staff are what make this place. So friendly and hospital. We aye together in the evenings like a family and in the day the staff go out of their way to take you on trips to their local village or tourist spots. Highly recommend 🫶🙏

Santi and all the staff were really friendly and helpful. The Bungalow was in a great location, clean, and had a great balcony to relax on. The restaurant Olalas right next door had awesome food plus had a great view of the water. There are plenty of scuba diving places in close walking distance. Robbie also has scooters to rent. Many thanks, guys, for a great stay

Nothing but love for this place! Tailana is truly paradise. Accommodation is basic, but offers all you need (and more actually). There’s even wifi at the restaurant - didn’t expect that. They offered beers. And a diving centre just opened! So many great spots for diving, and beautiful snorkelling right in front of your bungalow. I recommend booking the triangle bungalow, because they are newly renovated and have amazing ocean view. Tailana is our highlight of Sumatra, we wish we never left…

The staff is very kind, they gave free food to us and items for our food. The bungalow is maybe basic, but that's exactly why everyone comes to Bukit Lawang, back to basic! The family bungalow gives you a lot of privacy and constantly seeing monkeys in the trees. On the first evening we spotted an urang utang walking next to our bungalow!

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!

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.

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.

Everything! Perfect location, the rooms and bungalows are very tasteful and perfect view on the ocean. A hidden gem. Snorkel directly from the shore in front. You feel the love Borja and Yuyun put in their property and in taking care of their guests. They help you with everything. Best place we stayed during whole our Sumatra trip.

We had the most amazing food, lovingly prepared and enjoyed stunning views from our private balcony and the grounds. The property has a nice pool and several places to watch the sun set over the ocean. We were serenaded by frogs each night and enjoyed watching birds and monkeys in the trees.
