Brian and Sarah were so lovely. They also went above and beyond with the service. They helped me arrange transport to Bukit Lawang and to Lake Toba. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. There is also an express laundry service too which is brilliant for after the trek if you need to leave the next day. The guides were also super friendly and everyone was very genuine and had a good sense of humour. Absolutely rate this place.

The location is so pretty and peaceful. Sitting in the garden relaxing after our trek was perfect. We booked a 3 day jungle trek, our guides were amazing and looked after us. The food and camping was great. We saw many orangutans,monkeys, gibbons and lots of other wildlife. Thanks for such a great time to all of the staff at cheeky monkeys. We will definitely be back again next year

I stayed for 3 weeks at Batu Kapal and would recommend to others that they not just stay for a day before and/or after a jungle trek but enjoy this peaceful and beautiful location for multiple days. The primates (several monkey species and orangutans), butterflies, lizards and birds around the property provide frequent interest. When their isn't great wildlife in your view, the beautiful scenery will make you happy to be there.

Lovely spacious rooms with gorgeous balcony and view. Rooms were very clean with flushing toilets! Easy walk into town where there’s lots of restaurants and a supermarket.

Met at the top of the village by Dedek and Jonny to help us with our bags by motorbike to the homestay. These guys could not do enough for us and Made our stay in Bukit Lawang which in itself is a great place to visit. We did a one day trek with them, and thoroughly enjoyed the day seeing orangutans in the wild, and jungle taxiing back to the village. We did a cookery course with Jonnys Mum and a Village tour on the third day by bicycle which was a great way to learn more about the area. On top of that it’s a very comfortable room overlooking the river, we had the upstairs. Superb few days, really worth visiting and we will be recommending to friends and family.

This place has a wonderful view of the rice fields. It is very quite and a few km away from the main area so on the streets to reach the hotel you get to see how local people really live. The staff is very friendly and pro active they organized the trekking (we got to see two huge orangutan!!!) for us and all the transfers we needed. They speak English very well and they bring you with the bike wherever you want. The bungalow is lovely and clean. I would return for sure. Don’t miss it!

Absolutely fantastic experience at Cheeky Monkeys! The team went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and plan an unforgettable trip. Huge shoutout to our incredible jungle trek guide Riyan, who made the experience truly unforgettable with his knowledge of the jungle and also by going out of his way to ensure we were comfortable at all times. Sarul's comedic relief during the trek was a good addition. Our driver Tony was efficient and funny. Chef Eli's culinary skills were impressive, whipping up delicious meals whenever we requested . Adi's flexibility in accommodating our change in plans was also much appreciated. From start to finish, our stay at Cheeky Monkeys was an absolute pleasure.

    Alek is the most helpful homestay host we have had. He managed to sort out our 3D2N trek the night before we wanted to go and he lent us his bike to travel to an ATM. The location is ideal and lots of nice places to eat right outside. Well worth the price!!
