Aloita Resort & Spa

Top choice in Mentawai Islands


Ten bungalows in a garden setting occupy a private beach here within easy reach of the breaks Telescopes and Iceland, and there’s a beginner’s surf break a short walk away. Italian-run Aloita offers diving and paddleboarding, and its spa and yoga terrace make it a good option for surfers planning on bringing partners or family.

Aloita contributes to the local community by employing local staff and funding a school.
