We had a fantastic stay at Kaesa Homestay. The owner and his son are extremely welcoming, helpful, and friendly. They went out of their way to assist us with everything we needed, and their local recommendations were spot on. We would definitely love to return here in the future!

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

Great hotel with excellent service! The room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay especially Hanafi and the reception guy! I forgot to ask his name. The location was great and easy access to the restaurant. I would happily stay here again. ☺️

We stayed there before and after a 4 day jungle trek during the low/wet season. The bungalow was located on the river, right at the edge of the jungle. There are frequently macaque and Thomas's leaf monkeys in the trees and jumping on the roof. You can leave non-food items on the patio (like clothes drying after the jungle), but the host advised us to keep the door locked when we aren't around to keep them from coming in. We specifically chose somewhere without AC to acclimatize to the temperature and humidity, but ventilation inside was good. Porters met us at our taxi to carry the luggage through the village and across the bridge, which was appreciated.

It was great value for money, the beds were super comfortable and the location is great. Right next to a restaurant with very cheap food! They helped us organise a 3 day tour in the Jungle with Jos, we had the best time and couldn’t recommend it more!

No complaints for the price, cheapest spot on the whole island. You get what you pay for. If you're travelling on a budget and don't have high expectations, this place is a great option. The cafe next door was closed during my whole stay, but that might be due to the time of the year. Plenty of places with food and drinks within walking distance though, plus Sumur Tiga beach.

Everything. Tia is an exceptional host and great chef. All ingredients for every meal were fresh and delicious. Nothing was too much. Tia organised a superb jungle trek through the reputable government group and our guide Eddie was brilliant. It was amazing to see orangutans completely in the wild. The location is simply perfect, being the last place on this side of the river. The views are wonderful. Everything is kept very clean. This is a home from home, run by the heart.
