At the resort, the rooms are equipped with a wardrobe and a patio with a mountain view. Each room is fitted with a private bathroom and a bidet, and certain rooms at Gino's Place - Guest House & Jungle Trekking have a balcony. At the accommodation rooms are fitted with a seating area. We had a great two night stay! The room was spacious and the AC worked great. The staff were so kind and helpful. The food was delicious (we liked the curry best) and very reasonably priced. We also signed up for a one day tour with them and we had a great day with 5 orangutan sightings led by our guides Jojo and Aldi. One evening some local guys came by to hang out and play some music. It was great singing along and getting to know the people of Bukit Lawang! It was also great that this didn’t go on late into the night and we still went to bed at a very reasonable time.

Lisa and her husband are just the best hosts. Taking care of every single detail. From booking to making sure you make your flight back with no drama. The staff is also full of beautiful human beings. Lisa will take care of everything. Take into account that communication in the island is a little difficult with the service providers. Lisa will make sure everything runs smoothly. I booked the dolphin tour but didn’t wait up on time. Lisa woke me up and of course I pretended I was awake already. I was wearing my tshirt up side down.. nobody in the tour or Lisa believed me.. Note: please don’t be cheap. I saw people training to bargain five euros.. please don’t. It is a hard business and you are getting a lot for your money. Be nice, respectful and generous . They work very hard

Situated within a few steps of Sumur Tiga Beach in Sabang, Casa Nemo Beach Resort & Spa offers accommodation with seating area. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. Casa Nemo is owned by an Acehnese woman who prioritizes cultivating beautiful experiences and running an ethical, eco-friendly business. The entire resort is beautifully manicured with fruit trees and flowers everywhere. Everything here is done with intention and love. The staff take great pride in their work. Aceh Heritage Village: Right when you walk in, you'll see two beautifully restored historic Acehnese houses featuring hand carved and painted decorations. This is totally unique on the island, and it's a must-see. Sometimes there are events there, so check with the resort to see about the schedule. The restaurant: The restaurant is stunning with an inviting porch that reveals the ocean and the lush landscape. The food is delightful with a mix of Indonesian and Western options. I am gluten free with a sensitive stomach. The restaurant always accommodates my dietary restrictions, and I always feel good after I eat there! If you will be staying awhile, you can even bring your own gluten free flour, and they will prepare something special for you. I love the ayam tangkap (an Acehnese specialty that you can't find many places on the island) and tom yum. The rooms: Every bungalow is done in the traditional Acehnese style with wooden carved decorations. My bungalow had a porch with a hammock which was the perfect place to relax while watching the ocean and listening to the sounds of nature. The bed was comfortable. The shower had hot water and it was easy to control the temperature, which cannot be said of many showers on the island. There was also a fridge and water dispenser in the room including hot water and china cups. The spa: I have had some of the best massages of my life at the spa here. My favorite is the Javanese. Masseuses are expertly trained and accommodating with any issues you may have. Friends of mine have had waxing done with excellent results. The beach: Great for lounging and a gentle swim.

At the resort, the rooms include a balcony with pool view. Every room is equipped with a private bathroom with a shower, while selected rooms include a patio and others also provide guests with sea views. We stayed here at the end of september as non surfers for 5 nights to relax after Bukit Lawang / Berastagi / Lake Toba. This place is truly paradise, beaches so beautiful we have only seen in dreams before. Only a few meters from the bungalows, which were pretty, very clean and comfortable. Owner Iker en manager Javvi and all the other staff were super friendly and helpful. The food was very good as well, you could tell and taste they put an effort in every dish! Rented a scooter to explore the island and visited perfect deserted beaches and went swimming in the sea at the beach on the resort every day. We really had an incredible experience at La Belle Hollow trees.
