Nasara Resort

This place is what dreams are made of.The staff at the resort couldn’t be more helpful and a delight to deal with.We found our room amazing with a nice view of the ocean.Nothing we asked was an issue and anything we were unsure of the friendly staff were more than happy to accommodate us.The food we had was excellent and well portioned.The swimming pool was an absolute blessing, nice and refreshing.This is a must see, must do place.We where only there for 5 nights, and could off easily spent a lot longer, as there is plenty to see and do, or even soak up the sun by the pool.Would like to thank the staff for everything they did to make sure that we were safe and happy.We will be definitely coming back here.If you are looking for accommodation in the Mentawais this is the place for you.The guides on the resort are amazing with a lot of local knowledge.Thank you for our stay,

We encountered several inconveniences during our stay. First of all, the sheets were stained and the rooms are far too simple, with empty walls and traces of paint on the floor, which is not quality. Then there was no hot water for showers at 7 p.m., and the air conditioning was not turned on until after 7:15 p.m.Additionally, family members apparently related to the owner constantly occupied the common space, making it inaccessible. When we arrived, they were comfortably seated, some with their feet on the table.The behavior of the family's children was also problematic. During our dinner, they set off firecrackers near our table, and one of them set up a fishing rod line in the middle of the night. Fortunately, my wife saw it, otherwise I would have caught the wire in my face. It would be desirable for parents to supervise their children more.Additionally, there was an obvious lack of staff, which made us feel like we were bothering the cooks every time we spoke to them. Considering the price paid, we expected a nicer experience, but it felt more like we were staying at a kids' vacation club.On the other hand, the setting is very pleasant and the food was excellent. But really not worth the price paid knowing that just before, we had stayed on the island opposite and were much better received, and at least there was air conditioning and hot water…

The Mentawai Islands has been on our bucket list for years and it did not disappoint. A big part of this was due to this boutique and family friendly resort.From the moment we stepped off the fast ferry, we were greeted with warm smiles from the Nasara Resort staff, who then made our transition to the smaller island seamless.Cia and her team at the resort catered for our every need, including organising cars to take us to waterfalls, to fishing trips, snorkeling, and surfing some of the best breaks in the Ments. The resort has several boats available depending on the days activities.The food was catered to us as individuals depending on our dietary requirements and was fresh and tasty.The resort facilities are 5 star quality, the rooms were the largest on our Asia trip, with small kitchenettes, a water cooler and fridge available. The pool was clean, cool and refreshing and there were multiple day bed options for lazy days by the pool. New SUPs and kayaks were at our disposal every day and the water surrounding the island was the clearest I have ever seen with a reef just 200m from the resort.Steve, the owner, was really responsive to our queries and was super informative and honest in his approach when booking our trip.Overall, this was a five star experience for my little family and we will return.

In the neighborhood of other highly marketed resorts, Nasara’s exclusivity, cuisine, and commitment to service set the perfect tone for our honeymoon.Each day, you can plan your day flexibly with an “a la carte” feel — relaxing at the resort, doing activities as just a couple (ex: hiking, fishing) or doing group activities with other guests (ex: surf, snorkel, paddle boarding). Any activity, any interest and any format is possible with this staff. For example, for my husband who was surfing some days 2x/day at the best spots, the staff organized that we could also go snorkeling in between sessions.And, the food!!! Freshly prepared, great quantity and never had the same thing twice! From the moment you wake up, there is fresh fruit, coconuts and a full breakfast. Lunch served mid-day. And after watching a beautiful sunset your dinner is ready. I’ve cleared my plate every meal!!In short, we are thrilled we visited Nasara for our honeymoon and would without a doubt return in the future!

An absolute hidden gem! The serenity and beauty of the location, the access (and window view) to some of the world’s best surf, sumptuous home cooked meals with fresh ingredients, modern clean rooms adjourned with thoughtful amenities, exceptional hospitality, amazingly helpful staff who can arrange all sorts of activities for you to explore the most beautiful spots around the islands.. ok the only way to validate im telling the truth is, experience to believe..

It was really enjoyable staying at Nasara Resort, the rooms were extraordinarily nice with direct sea views from the room balcony, the staff were friendly and very helpful to us, and don't forget Zigi and Robi the dogs who always accompany activities at Nasara Resort. Thank you Nasara Resort for a wonderful experience 🏻

I think 5 stars isn’t enough to describe how enjoyable it was during my 3 day stay at Nasara.The views are immaculate, the sound of the waves calms your mind. You can see a lot of fish just by the deck since the water is so clear and the beach is clean too. The white sand beach is just perfect for walking and enjoying your time.The staff is also super friendly and really responsive, even the owner. They take great care of you and make you feel at home. Also, they have a lot of activities to offer, and I was blessed enough to go mangrove kayaking. The guide really takes care and looks out for you.The room is also clean and comfortable. I think you can’t really complain about anything. Even the meals are 5-star Michelin 😊 (you can request halal food too, which is amazing). They also keep the pool clean, even at night.I wish I could stay a little longer to experience more great things. I’m really thankful for this short gateway. The is no hesitation to come back here. For my experience at Nasara, it was perfect, they make you forget about all the stress (at least from my experience). Once again, thank you so much.

I almost don’t want to leave a review, because we always want to come back here and don’t want to run the risk of it being booked out! Which it totally should be, because we had the most amazing time! The staff is awesome, very attentive and super helpful. If you need something, they’ll assist you within seconds. Cia is the best cook! We’re both vegetarians which can be hard in Indo and she cooked up the most creative and delicious meals, not a single repetition in 12 days! The property is absolutely stunning, the pool is perfect to cool off in the hot tropical climate! Lots of great surf options just a speedboat ride away! All in all, it was one of the best vacations we’ve ever had and we cannot wait to come back!

I came out here in the off-season for my birthday and spent five nights at this incredible resort.First of all the owner, Steve is incredibly helpful, and communicates perfectly. He made everything a breeze from days before we left all the way till the end of our vacation.He can take care of everything for you from your flights, to your accommodation in Padang, to transportation out to the island.Once we arrived at the resort, Cia, the manager and chef accommodated all of our various dietary requests. She cut out sugar for us, made delicious, gluten-free desserts, breads, and pastas… and made some of the most incredible seafood, chicken, and beef dishes I’ve ever had. The beef randang was to die for, and the pineapple shrimp nasi goreng was the best nasi I ever had.Raju is the resort’s surf Guide. And there isn’t a better one in the Mentawais. He knows all the spots and can get you into all the waves. You can tell that all the locals in the lineup respect him, so as long as you’re cool, you’ll get all the waves you can handle even with 10 local kids surfing beside you. When you want to head to an empty lineup, he knows everything there is to know about the winds, the tides, the spots, the swell magnets, and will put you in the perfect lineup. Plus he is cool as hell, fully stoked, and an instant soul brother. Your guide and your boat captain are both great surfers and you can tell they truly get stoked when the customers score long rides.I brought my woman with me, and there are plenty of secluded white sand beaches, Crystal-clear snorkeling waters, mangroves to explore on paddle boards and incredibly comfortable rooms. What can be better than an extremely romantic getaway at the same time as being able to surf your brains out?Do yourself a favor and stay at Nasara at least once in your life.

My wife and I spent 10 nights at Nasara resort. Overall it was a fantastic experience. The Nasara team were great and made us feel very much at home. Plenty of surfing, beach walks and sunsets to die for. Hopefully we'll be back sooner rather than later.
