    It is a basic accommodation.. no airco.. minimum comfort, need to take that in mind, also what you pay for. Be aware there are many (big) steps to take to go to the water, to your cabin, to the restaurant.

    Kind staff! Restaurant options. Trip option to go dolphin watching and snorkeling was fantastic!! 100’s of dolphins around the boat. A French couple brought their GoPro to also look under water, which was amazing. Very very breathtaking. Also snorkeling was great! Many differ colored fish swimming around the (mainly dead) coral.. but still great to watch! Nemo, parrot, morene, puffer fish, huge jellyfish, etc Take the tuktuk that the accommodation offers to take you from the harbor to the resort, nice to see the surrounding! Snorkeling is also possible directly in front of the resort. The driver has a contact on mainland that you can use on the way back, we can recommend him to take you to the tsunami museum. Take cash with you, ATM and pin machine at accommodation do not always work.

    The bungalows are very hot at night, we knew beforehand that the room only had a fan, but we weren’t prepared for sweating that much. And the beds are very hard.

    Very very nice and helpful staff you could always have a laugh with. We had a garden view bungalow, monkeys were jumping through the trees, birds and huge, beautiful butterflies were flying around our balcony. The whole location is very green with many trees and plants. The hotel has its own plank from which you can jump into the crystal clear, turquoise water. Directly from there it’s amazing to snorkel through the small reefs and watch lion fish, Nemos and rays. The food is delicious, especially the guacamole and the vegetable coconut curry.

    The mozzie net in my room smelt a bit, I didn't get a waterfront cabin and there was rat poo in one corner of my room.

    The staff were incredible, really wonderful, friendly and considerate people.

    the mattress was very uncomfortable. we were a couple and fell to the middle ( really strong). I think for a hotel the sleeping comfort is number one. So a new mattress please

    lactation was nice and the garden very beautiful

    Room was very dirty, not only leaves on the floor (which isn’t that bad) but also the sink and the shower were very dirty. Ocean view bungalows are quite expensive, the rooms are very basic.

    Alvin made some greeeeat food! Eka was always reachable on whatsapp- unfortunately Ive never met her. Booked the ocean view Bungalow- the view was amazing! Renting a bike was possible and they purchased towels in the rooms. Laundry was also done quickly.

    We almost missed our ferry back to the mainland due to mishandling of the staff, which was very unfortunate and stressful. We fixed transportation back to the harbour a day prior and were told by the staff to be ready at 2.30. We were there even earlier, at 2.15, and there seemed to be a lot of miscommunication and misunderstanding, but we were told to wait and relax and the transport would be there in 10 min. After 45 min, still no sign of the transport. The staff still told us to relax and that everything would be fine, although no one seemed to know what was going on. It seemed that we would miss our ferry, which meant missing our nightbus back to Medan. It was terrible. The staff took no responsibility whatsoever and their communication was really poor. Finally, after 60 min, a becak arrived, we jumped in and we rushed to the ferry. We were able to catch it, because it was a couple minutes delayed, otherwise we would have missed it. In conclusion, the accommodation is fine, but don’t rely on the staff. Maybe get your own transportation to the harbour to avoid very stressful situations.

    Nice spacious bungalow, perfectly located right next to the sea

    I didn't like leaving !!!

    The atmosphere, the willingness to make you welcome and comfortable. I've been a visitor to Eka and Olala for 18 years would I have done that if it wasn't worth while ?

    The Bungalows not good, as there are many holes on the walls, allowing insects and geckos to enter easily, as I could not sleep because of my fear of geckos. The place is also far from public services. The entrance to the road is very bumpy and unpaved
