Set in Telukdalam, a few steps from Baloho Beach, Salty Dog Hostel offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. Guests can dine in the restaurant or a drink at the bar and free WiFi is available. Hands down one of the best hostel experiences we've had in Indonesia. We originally booked 4 nights and stayed for two weeks, and even then found it hard to leave!! Not only is Nias and Salty Dog a slice of paradise but Arif and his beautiful family are truly amazing people; so fun, welcoming, kind and helpful. We instantly felt like family. Arif goes above and beyond for his guests, speaking fantastic English it was a pleasure to hang out each day, he even took us to the local waterfalls and Bawomataluo village where he explained in depth about the local culture and traditions. Both days were such a highlight for us! The family room was spacious, comfortable, had AC, a private bathroom (cold showers but they were welcomed with the heat!) and a fantastic view of the bay. The bed was huge! The kitchen is fully equipped, WiFi is the best we've experienced (especially as remote workers) and just the vibe, volunteers, dogs and puppies were a dream. The bay is great for a swim, perfect for children as it's nice and calm, and we had such respect for Arif who works so hard to keep it clean and plastic free! Everyday we were greeted with a delicious local breakfast, Arif arranged scooter rental, offered ideas and tips of what to do and was always available to answer or help us in any way. His gorgeous daughter and nieces loved being with our 4 year old, always playing and involving her. Genuinely a slice of heaven. We will absolutely be back and look forward to this being our dream Indonesian hideout for many years to come. Thank you Arif and family for an unforgettable stay.

Featuring a shared bathroom with a bidet, rooms at the hostel also feature free WiFi, while selected rooms also feature a sea view. The vibe was amazing with James and the staff making the stay 10/10. The location was perfect for a quiet, relaxed stay. Beautiful sunset location. James tailored all of the activities, including car ride to the south, surf lessons and boat trip (including mangrove and 3 sisters) to our wants and needs. We stayed 7 nights all together- we extended because we loved it so much. James’ surf lessons were extremely in depth and helped us improve our confidence and ability. The smoothie bowl was delicious! Couldn’t recommend this place more!
