Telo Island Lodge - The Lodge
Telos Group, Indonesia

Picture
The Lodge
Situated lagoon-side in a protected pocket at the base of a small mountain, Telo Island Lodge commands a vista over one of Indonesia’s most coveted surfing locations.  Max’s Right, one of the region’s premier rights, is directly in front of the lodge, approximately 100 meters from your doorstep, and provides an ever-changing outlook for lodge guests.

Telo Island Lodge is a full service surf resort featuring, fly-in fly-out fully guided surfing experiences for a maximum of eight guests.  The common area is an open-plan space that features a bar, TV lounge area, full-size table tennis table and individual reading areas.  The grounds of the lodge are all manicured with multiple decked areas featuring umbrellas and sun lounges with a view of the break directly in front of the lodge.  A bar is also accessible from the main deck area.

All boats and marine equipment are serviced at double the rate recommended by the manufacturers and no cost is spared in making sure they run to the strictest safety standards.  All boat skippers are fully qualified and come with many years experience on the ocean.  All of the transfer boats also have a comprehensive first responder first aid kit, spinal boards, and emergency protocols to ensure you have the most fun with the least risk.

The lodge itself is an open-plan post-and-beam construction fusing local North Sumatran construction style with western ideals.  Huge undercover decks and open common areas are surrounded by lush green manicured lawns and a tropical lagoon.  State-of-the-art surf transfer speedboats are standing by for your use.

All rooms have King size beds, air-conditioning and ensuite facilities with an always on WiFi internet connection throughout the property.  Rooms are serviced twice daily with complimentary laundry service.

The Main House
The Telo Island Lodge Main House is a giant, open-plan-style building right on the lagoon’s edge at Max’s Right, one of the most stunning vistas in the surfing world.

A 23x15 metre post-and-beam constructed house, it has two separate air conditioned bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom with hot and cold shower, tiled floor, western-style flush toilet, and private deck with undercover surfboard rack.  The main guest area features a clear view of the surf and jungle, and the open-screen construction makes you feel like you’re right in the jungle on the water’s edge.

The Lagoon House
Located at the far end of the main beach, about 50 meters from the Main House, the Lagoon House features upstairs and downstairs bedrooms for up to five people.  Both levels of the lagoon house are fully air-conditioned.  The Lagoon House also features a sizable deck extending out into the lagoon for a full over-water feel. The deck and all rooms overlook the water.

For both Houses, the sleeping arrangements can vary from single beds to full-sized King beds, depending on your group.

The Boardroom
The Boardroom is the latest addition to the surf resort.  It is no more than a longboard’s length away from the Main House.  It is a post-and-beam constructed building containing a wall of private guest surf board storage lockers, numerous open lockers for additional surf board storage, and two work benches for tuning boards.  Most importantly, as of June 2013, it houses a quiver of the latest eco-boards courtesy of Matt Biolos and Lost Enterprises, available for guest rentals.  Feel free to leave your worries and boards at home – they’ve got you sorted!
