Why Villa Mentawai is the Ultimate Surf Trip for Small Groups

If you’ve been dreaming of a surf trip to the Mentawais, you’ve probably come across dozens of boat trips and camps promising the "trip of a lifetime." But if you're after something more private, more flexible, and more comfortable — Villa Mentawai is where the real magic happens.

Here’s why our villa setup is one of the best ways to experience the Mentawai Islands.

1. A Place to Call Your Own

Unlike big surf camps or packed charter boats, Villa Mentawai offers the entire property for your group. Whether you're traveling with friends, your partner, or family, you’ll have the entire space to yourselves — no awkward schedules, no random roommates. Just you, your crew, and the ocean.

2. Surf When You Want, Where You Want

No fixed schedules here. With our private speedboat and experienced surf guide, you're free to chase the best waves each day. If the wind changes mid-morning, we’ll move. If you want to surf dawn to dark — we’re on it. This isn’t just a surf trip — it’s your surf trip.

3. Comfort Between Sessions

After chasing barrels all morning, coming home to a spacious, air-conditioned villa with a comfy bed, hot shower, and a stocked fridge isn’t a luxury — it’s a game-changer. Add a quick nap in a hammock or a sunset beer on the deck, and you’ll wonder why you ever settled for cramped boat cabins.

4. No Crowds, No Stress

Our location offers access to a handful of lesser-known breaks, plus easy reach to famous waves like Beng Bengs, Hideaways, and Nipussi. And because we only host one group at a time, you’re never competing with 10 other surfers staying under the same roof.

5. Local Knowledge, Every Step of the Way

From travel logistics and transfers to real-time surf decisions, our crew is made up of locals who know the Mentawais inside out. We’re here to make your experience as smooth and stress-free as possible, both in and out of the water.

Ready to Make It Happen?

We don’t do mass bookings. We don’t host 30 people at once. We offer something simple and rare: the chance to surf some of the best waves on Earth — your way.
