“We loved our stay here. Areef (sorry mate I don’t know how to spell it 😂) was such an incredible host! The hostel is located in a beautiful quiet bay overlooking the water. He was able to provide a scooter at a very good price, we thought the room was very good value as well especially considering that it includes a great fresh local breakfast and coffee each day too! We really felt at home here, it’s a very social place where you can meet other travellers. Areef and his wife Yasmin were kind enough to take all of the travellers to a nearby local village for a tour. The wifi was very good too! Thanks for everything, I would recommend this place to others!”
“I had a fantastic stay at Salty Dog Hostel- my only regret was I couldn't stay longer!. Arif, Axel and the whole family create a really nice family vibe in the hostel and will always go out of their way to make sure you get the most from your stay on this beautiful island. The dorm I stayed in was basic, but had everything you needed- privacy curtain , Aircon and an attached bathroom. The hostel hires out both scooters and surfboards for cheap ( even more so if you take over a week ) and is only a 20 min drive away from the best surfing spots in the South. When I return to Nias one day I will certainly be going back to stay at the salty Dog. Many thanks Arif, Axel and family !! ❤️🧂🐕❤️”
“This is one of those places where you arrive as a stranger, but leave as family.
Areef and his family and staff are super friendly and welcoming!
There's a super chill vibe hanging around the place and they regularly organize activities for their guests.
Thank you and I hope to see you again!”
“Grace Wave is awesome! Super friendly staff, great location with amazing views! The rooms are large and comfortable. Great food too! Highly recommended.”
“Frank and his family are great hosts, they make you feel very comfortable and welcome. Unreal location right in front of the break walk put on the reef and you are in. We stayed two weeks wish we stayed longer”
