With huge four-poster beds, immense rooms, hammocks on porches and immaculate hot-water bathrooms, this riverfront lodge combines the ultimate in creature comforts with professionally run tours by Sumatra Ecotravel. Its deck chairs overlooking the river and jungle are great for kicking back. There are only five rooms, so reservations are a good idea.
It offers multiday trips into the jungle, and can arrange transport to Danau Toba and Tangkahan.
