SUSTAINABILITY
Protecting What Makes This Place Special
The Mentawai Islands are one of the world’s last untouched surf destinations.
We believe it’s our responsibility to help keep them that way.
That’s why Hidden Bay was built around sustainable practices, including solar energy, eco-friendly wastewater systems, a zero-plastic policy, and the region’s first coral restoration program using Biorock technology.
Every stay helps preserve this incredible destination for generations to come.

My daughter and I had an absolutely fantastic time beyond our expectations. We were blown away with the amazing hospitality, incredible surf, and huge smiles from the most friendly staff. The HB team got us to the best spots on any given day for the conditions and our ability. Loved the video/coaching from Duca and warmup/recovery from Renata was incredible! We will be back for sure. Thank you Alex and all the team at hidden Bay! Sam and Evelyn IrelandPosted on Google Philip DavisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hidden Bay delivers that ultimate surf trip you've been dreaming about. I stayed for 9 days with a surf buddy and we had the time of our lives. Of course, the surf in the Northern Mentawai's is renowned, and it delivered. Shoulder season was just our speed with sessions ranging from shoulder high to 2-3' overhead. But that's just the start. Upon arrival, we were welcomed as part of the family and, due to the laid-back vibe, immediately began bonding with the staff and other guests. The food was fresh, tasty, nutritious, and expertly prepared. Accommodations were perfect for our needs. Warm-up and cool-down sessions helped us to be able to sustain the two-a-day surfs. Videography was great, capturing each or our waves. Also, all of the transportation was taken care of, with representatives attending to us from arrival in Padang all the way to the resort and back. The resort is big enough to have everything you need and small enough to feel personal and intimate. I even got a surprise birthday party with a home-made cake! Amazing. Big thanks to Duca and his family, Ardi, Tika, Mikey, and the entire staff.Posted on Google Ivan SkvarilTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What makes this place special is the people and staff. Duca and his family took care of everyone, always made sure we were hitting the best spots, and were generally a great time to hang around. Alex the owner was super accommodating, and his staff really loved him a lot which speaks volumes about the operation he’s running. The food here is next level. Unlimited portions, super healthy, and really delicious. Mikey who was in charge of recovery & warm ups was amazing. Super funny, genuine, extremely knowledgeable and keeps your body ready/recovered for the next sessions. The wizards behind the camera capture all your waves and surf analysis at night really helped me figure out my quirks- definitely feel like I improved. The room I stayed in was great. Had everything you need, clean sheets, cold AC, it was awesome. Couple of bugs but you’re in the Mentawais. Pretty close to the spots, especially Hideaways which is a 10min ride and an insane left. You’ll be surfed out of your mind by the time you’re done. No better place to stay!Posted on Google Vince “VL” MartinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Review: A Dream Surf Experience at Hidden Bay Resort 🌴✨🏝🏄 As a first-time visitor to the Mentawais, my stay at Hidden Bay Resort was nothing short of unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like family — warm smiles, genuine kindness, and an effortless attentiveness that made every day special. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect — from dreamy surf sessions to warm-up and recovery exercises, breathing sessions, and unforgettable sunset dinners. The evening surf video reviews were an incredible bonus, helping us improve our surf techniques and get the most out of each session. The food was absolutely incredible — fresh, flavorful, and prepared with so much care. Every meal felt like a celebration of island living, whether it was a pre-surf breakfast meal or a hearty, delicious dinner overlooking the ocean. The setting itself is breathtaking — crystal-clear water, lush jungle surroundings, and that unique Mentawai magic that’s both energizing and peaceful. The resort’s ambiance strikes the perfect balance between laid-back surf vibes and barefoot luxury. You can truly feel the love and thought poured into every detail. Thank you Duca and family, Mikey Malin, Ardi, Tika, the rest of the incredible staff, and other guests we got to know. You are all beautiful people I call friends. If you’re looking for the place where world-class waves meet world-class hospitality, Hidden Bay is it. It’s more than a surf trip — it’s an experience that stays with you long after you’ve left.Posted on Google JCTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
