“Great place to stay, the property itself is just right in front of the ocean. Raffiel and the crew are the best at their job. Room is always clean, foods are amazing and the people are super friendly.”

“The family will take care of you, rooms are tidy and clean, staff service is top. The restaurant serves more delicious food than other places — been to Nias a few times and finally found the right one.”

“Great hospitality, great location, food was good — usually BBQ chicken or fresh fish caught that day. Lovely local family with strong links to surf history in the area. It's the perfect surf retreat.”
