We make it easy for you. You'll get picked up by our driver and delivered to paradise, where all (healthy and plentiful) meals are included. Free wifi is also included, but Indonesia isn't known for it's internet. Non-surfers and families will find plenty of action and entertainment, in the way of waterfalls and markets. If you fancy some fitness on your holiday, Amy is a certified Pilates instructor from USA. Chill by the fresh water pool. Get a massage while you listen to waves roll in. What sets Amy's Place apart from the other surf hotels in the area, is the massive garden and limit of 10 guests. This gives you the space to relax, and allows us to keep the standard of the food and accommodation much higher than if we catered to more people. You'll have an epic time, surfing empty waves, eating good food, and getting to know the local culture which hasn't been overtaken by tourism. We look forward to providing you with memories that'll last a lifetime.
Amy's Place is amazing! I stayed there for over two weeks and had the best time! If you're looking for a relaxing environment with good people and good times this is the place for you. If you are looking for extra-lux resort type facilities or wild parties maybe try somewhere else. If you are travelling solo, as a couple, in a group or family, looking for a homey abode with a wicked surf guide, 3 beautiful dogs, a kitten, free laundry service, delicious food, deep massages, little surf trips, an amazing garden, etc etc then Amy's Place is THE place for you. All airport pickups were organised by Amy. When I arrived after a long trip; without asking, a bike with board rack was ready to go for the next morning. The surf guide Blake and I rode to various surf sports and he was able to predict different swell sizes, surf conditions, crowds, wave type, wave difficulty and hazard warnings. On the days there wasn't suitable waves to kill the time there was the pool, table tennis, comfy lounges, card games, snacks, a couple of bintangs and great company. Amy goes above and beyond to help with whatever you need (a lot you weren't aware of). She is well known and loved in the Krui community. Because she genuinely likes her guests; the feel of Amy's place is cosy and homey. The only problem staying here is that next time you'll want to stay for years. Thanks for everything Amy, Pely, the rest of the staff, Frankie, Pete, Mama and Murray. I'll see you all next year. Cheers, Jeremy…

The resort is in a beautiful garden with lots of green, palm trees, pool, hammocks, slackline and observation deck for swell check and sunsets. Amy and her crew are doing a great job in giving hints and advice for the best surf spots. One thing I really liked as a solo traveler was that everybody meets for an excellent diner at night.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Amy's place , Amy was an awesome host ! Never went hungry and never got bored, like i have in the past at other camps, I took heaps of movies for my lap top and I didn't watch any of them because of the fun friendly atmosphere ,you don't even want to hang in your room .

Thanks Amy for the great stay! Your place is awesome, all that could be asked for in a surf trip. Everything’s been so smooth and I loved to kick back and relax at your place in between surfs. I will try and come back next year for more scoring!

If your planning a surf trip to indo, have a think about going slightly off the beaten track and score great waves . Amy's place is well centred to most and it's an easy trek to others. Will be returning for sure

When we (2 couples) arrived an hour before sunset and Amy wanted to get us on the waves, I knew she and her place rocks!! She ensured our wifes were settled and that we had our scooters and gear ready for a sunset surf... drove off to the Peak and scored our first barrels on the Sumatra coast! That is awesome hosting :-) ! Amy's Place has so many stand outs apart from the great welcome! The food is divine, the staff is awesome, the vibe is chill, the beers are cold, the pool and layout is perfect for chilling and the view and sound of the ocean! The rooms are large with fans and we slept like babies every night. Amy made sure that we wete on the waves every day. The best surf resort type thing on the coastline. A bucket list destination of note. Thanks for everything boss Amy! Paul&Nadine Riaan&Nadine…

Loved our time here. It was by far the cleanest and most welcoming accommodation I saw in Krui. So central to everything. All the breaks of Krui, then 30min - 1hour north or south to many other choices of waves. We'll be back again. 100% certain of this.

Amy's Place is paradise! Incredible location with a beautiful beach, reef and waves out front. Great food with loads of variety, but always tasty. Comfortable and clean rooms. Beautiful jungle garden with an epic viewing tower for wave watching and sunset beer-drinking sessions. Fun, smiling and happy staff with special mention to the legend that is Pelly! All this is reigned over by Queen Amy. She brings a level of service to the Sumatran jungle that is hard to beat. Queen Amy arranges whatever you need, and you never need to check up on its progress because...SHE GETS IT DONE! Thank you, Queen Amy and your merry band of wonderful people! Keep up the good work, and see you next time! Yew!

Hahahahaha "Queen Amy" , happy to hear I managed to exceed all expectations. The only reason I can get stuff done is because of the amazing staff. None of it would exist without them, and you're right.. Pely is a huge part of that. Can't wait to see you next year! Thanks so much for taking the time write a review. I really appreciate it.
