We had a real nice stay there. It's a beautiful little island out in nowhere. So bring some cookies for yourself or the 3 nice guys (Yulio, Edo and Idris) that are hosting you and cooking so good 3 times a day or bring a guitar string for Yulios guitar, he will play some songs for you. They will be so thankful. Anyway it's the perfect place to find some rest and time to snorkel or cuddle with the cats or dog. We had such a great time there, made a bonfire and just sit together, sang together and talked and laughed. Since we organised the way to the Island ourselves we were happy that Ira organised our way back to Medan by a shared car. We could even pay by paypal or wise transfer since we couldn't find an ATM in Singkil that was working for us. Thanks for the wonderful stay. I would recommend this to anyone:-)

The place is wonderful. It's a small island, but perfect for people looking for peace and quiet. People who like to spend time actively will not be bored either. There is a diving base on site, a great, very helpful and friendly instructor, you can also opt for kayaking and even a Robinson Crusoe adventure. Reef under reconstruction, but plenty of coral rich dive sites, and some good snorkelling. Bungalows comfortable, clean, close to the sea, electricity available most of the day. There is of course wifi. Shared toilets and shower, clean, nice shower. All staff VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. The hospitality we experienced was amazing! You can communicate in English, Indonesian but also Czech, which made us very happy. They will help organize transfer from Medan airport, boat from Singkil or other regions. Excellent cuisine on the island, seafood, varied meals and unlimited coconuts 😉 The atmosphere of the island and the people made us extend our stay and it was a great decision!

This is paradise! We stayed 12 days with our kids and had a wonderful time on this beautiful island. Kimo resort is simple, clean, and very well looked after. The staff is super friendly and helpful, food is great and there are good, different choices. Access to two beaches for sunrise or sunset, they are not even a minute walk apart. The bungalow is right at the beach, and a few meters into the sea, there is a little reef - not too many corals, but anemones, and a decent number of fish. Ideal for kids to start snorkeling.

The staff here is absolutely amazing. The facilities and location is beyond perfect, we absolutely loved our stay!

Bungalows are well distanced and cozy, right in front of the ocean. We loved the beauty and quietness of the place. Danny and his staff are very caring and discreet at the same time. They cooked delicious fish for us, fished daily. The strength of this accomodation is its small size, which allows you to stay away from crowds and to truly enjoy this remote tropical island.
