Krui Surf Camp - Lampung, Sumatra. Indonesia

"The stay was a real pleasure, everything is kept easy (muslim toilets, nice veranda to hang out, billard table, ping pong table), but you have everything you need. The breakfast can be included and is really good. The owner is helpful and has an answer for every question you'll ask. Perfect place for surfer's (krui left is 20 meters to the beach) and other surfspot like the peak are really close.I enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend it.Cheers, Julian"

"Staying at Krui Surf Camp during my Sumatran surf trip contributed to this being the best surf trip I've done.With a bunch of different reef breaks right out the front, a beachbreak 15 mins scooter drive away and a lot more reef breaks in within an hour drive, the location is perfect. Travelling solo, I felt really comfortable staying in one of the single cabins which, because of their natural wooden interior, gave me the jungle vibe I expected getting in South Sumatra. In addition to that I had the nicest view of the wave ‘Krui Left’ from the veranda just outside my room. The common areas have been designed to be more than just a place to stay. Most of the time I ended up chatting with the other guests in a nice and comfy relaxing area right next to the bar, or playing pool or table tennis, drinking a cool beer. Christian and his wife Yuli are excellent hosts and along with their partner Florian and their friendly staff they work hard to ensure, that there are no reasons for complaints. Compared to other places in Sumatra I had the feeling that the food they provided was a little bit too expensive but they said they would work on that and because the hostel is located really close to the center of Krui there’s always the option of eating out. Another fact, that really impressed me is, that the owner is super engaged in social and environmental projects. Telling him, that I brought water filters to install in areas, where people don't have enough money to buy clean drinking water, he offered me to help straight away and set up a meeting with one of the community leaders in no time. We also organized a beach clean up in the Krui area and without the help of Christian it would have not been the same.Combining a local atmosphere and Indonesian vibes with a little bit of Western comfort, Krui Surf Camp was one of the best places for me to stay and I will definitely be back hopefully more sooner than later."

"I had only good experiences with the Surf Camp! Florian and Christian are very friendly hosts and the waves there are really great for beginners and pros! I highly recommend this place to all people who love to surf!!"
