Company information

Sibayak Guesthouse is family owned, and we like to welcome you as part of it. I'm Vito, the manager, and I'm always available to help you with anything you need, from tourist information to renting a bike, or simply to play chess - but be careful, I tend to win often! And managing the kitchen you will find my wife Onik, superb cooks - although the indisputable banana porridge master is me. We all enjoy chatting with foreigners and learning new things about your country and your language, like the amazing sounds you think roosters do - seriously, cock-a-doodle-doo?

Property information

Welcome, and enjoy the scenery of Lake Toba and mountains that you can see from the terrace of your room, because all the rooms we provide face directly to the lake and mountains. Sibayak Guesthouse is located in a quiet corner of Tuktuk, right at the lake, but away from all the motorboat noise and the live music bars, so you can swim or go fishing untroubled during the day and sleep peacefully at night. We have a big common area with a restaurant, cold Bintang beer and amazing sunset views. Plus, there are hammock to take a nap or just lay down to read a book. The restaurant menu offers a choice of Indonesian or Continental breakfast, tasty local dishes and yummy desserts. When you come from Parapat on the ferry, they will drop you directly on our jetty, and as it is the last stop, you get a boat tour around Tuktuk for free! Otherwise, we are just 10 minutes walking from the main jetty.

Neighbourhood information
