There
are many paradises in the world but my time on this happy,
contended little island has made it one of my favorites.
My thanks to all the locals who work so hard to keep visitors
happy."

Siloinak
Resort is established on a small private paradise island
surrounded by a crystal-clear atoll, near Siberut, the largest
of the northern Mentawai islands.
It`s
one of the most acclaimed Mentawai resort and the most affordable
with prices starting at 140 USD per day.
Surfing
the Mentawai will be one of your best surf trips due to
the consistency of the Indian Ocean swells. You will surf
the most rich wave spot in the world. There are 20 top performance
waves, 12 of them being classified as world class, in a
radius of 20 minutes by speed-boat from Siloinak.
Due to the variety of their orientation, there will be a
reef pumping out clean perfect waves whatever the wind direction.
Our surf guides, with a vast experience of the reefs, will
find exactly the wave of your dreams, according to swell,
tide, wind and your ability. With us, you will surf more
waves with lesser crowds. Due to the incredible number of
waves in the Playground area and the speed of our boats
(25 knots), the next spot is always less than 10 minutes
away.
Siloinak
Resort caters also to travelers looking for a unique tropical
retreat and some easy discovery trips of the extraordinary
Mentawai culture.
Siloinak
is your own private tropical island to share with some like-minded
companions. 30 acres of a deserted island with 900 meters
of coconut palms fringed beaches and a wonderful lagoon,
ideal for swimming among tropical fishes.
Built
in an authentic Mentawai spirit and architecture, the Resort
offers a unique Mentawai experience of peace and relaxation,
sometimes animated by beach BBQ and epic evenings at the
bar. It is composed of a 16 seat restaurant, established
in the largest ``uma`` (long house) of the Mentawai archipelago
and 8 bungalows hosting one or two surfers. Roofs are made
of palm leaves and the complex is entirely built with local
tropical red wood. All bungalows have en-suite bathrooms,
with toilets and showers.
Great hospitality, excellent
food and brilliant service from staff. Lots of small touches
that make all the difference. Will be recommending it!
