Water

This is salt-soaked luxury, Mentawais style. Your own beachfront villa, private plunge pool and world-class waves out front. Bring your board or opt into guided boat trips to the Mentawai’s best breaks. When you’re not surfing, or if that’s not your thing, there’s plenty to be doing. Two daily yoga sessions, three daily chef-led meals served by the sea – all delicious, all included – and space to just be. SUPs, snorkels, serenity – it’s all yours. Luxe enough for a romantic escape, relaxed enough to go with mates. Or just go it alone. Take a breather. Enjoy the quiet. Because here there’s no crowds. No chaos. No shoes needed. Just you, the ocean, and the rhythm of the island.

Activities

The fun stuff

Flow into the day at first light, then wind down as the sun dips behind the palms. Twice-daily yoga sessions on the deck help you ground, breathe and move in sync with island time.

Sunrise & Sunset Yoga

Mentawai Islands Regency,...

Snorkel straight off the beach into clear, coral-rich waters. Spot reef fish, float over turquoise blues, or simply let the saltwater reset your nervous system.

Ocean Dips & Reef Floats

Mentawai Islands Regency,...

Grab a SUP and glide across glassy water just steps from your villa. Paddle solo or together – no bookings, no fuss, just ocean and freedom.

Stand-Up Paddle Sessions

Mentawai Islands Regency,...

Unplug (or don’t) in your own villa oasis. Morning coffee on the deck, poolside pages, or siestas with nothing but birdsong and breeze.

Private Villa Downtime

Mentawai Islands Regency,...

Follow the curve of your private shoreline. Shells, warm sand, maybe a barefoot run – or just wander with no map and no need for one.

Beach Walks & Salt Air Wanders

Mentawai Islands Regency,...

Level up your stay with spa treatments, guided SUP tours, clear kayak adventures, waterfall treks, surf lessons, snorkel trips, or private beach picnics. All gear is complimentary. Choose your moments. The island’s got range.
