Monthly Rentals in West Sumatra

My stay at Ricky’s was great! After a long day and a long drive there that ended a bit stressful, when I arrived at Ricky’s they immediately knew me by name and got me dinner. The place is more like a hostel, with community meals, jam sessions around a fire at night, and a club like area that I could tell probably had some amazing parties, but there weren’t many people there when I was staying. There’s amazing snorkeling right on site, with the chance to see some beautiful sea turtles. They also have a turtle hatchery, which was so cool! I got to help feed the baby turtles and clean their little shells! If you’re looking for a a chill and relaxed atmosphere, surrounded by beauty, Ricky’s is for you! The only negative, which would only be a negative for some. Is that they do play live music pretty late at night which can be heard from the bungalows, and as I said, I can tell they probably have some pretty fun parties there during the peak season.

I had a great stay! Highly recommended for digital nomads looking for a long-term stay. The location is absolutely perfect.

There aren't the words to describe how lovely and enjoyable our stay was at Pinilok. It was everything we hoped for and more. If you are looking for the best, most private place to stay on Sipura this is it. Unlike all the resorts nearby, you have your beach all to yourself!! The only humans we saw on our visit were all the lovely fellas who took care of us on the property and some local fishermen walking down the beach. Access to waves is spot on. Food is amazing. Anton will feed you the BEST fresh fish while Tirti can show you the best waves, snorkel spots, beaches, etc. We were missing our doggos so it was such a treat to have a brood of dogs on the property. If you are looking for a place that embodies the Mentawais, this is it. I wish we could keep the spot to ourselves but this is the place to go! Absolutely recommend and cannot wait to return.

Amazing! I've never expected a great accomodation with such an affordable price. I think I might book the second time later next month! Host is great and helpful too 🩷
