Great little home stay. The rooms are comfy at a good price. The restaurant serves up nice Indonesian and Western food. This place is so beautiful would love to retire here. It has warm atmosphere which makes you want to stay longer.

One of the nice place in toba lake. Good food in restaurant and nice view nice landscape. Come check it out please. The rooms clean and comfortable. They do have live performance batak dance and folksong twice a week. Horas horas horas

I didn't actually stay here, but I came to eat and watch the live show. The show began with a little music, then added dancing (the dancers looked like they couldn't wait to get out of there), and ended with some really phenomenal singing. Stay for the singing - there was even yodeling! They'll even give you a ride back... More

A single room for 30000 is great, no question. And the view from the lake is beautiful. My only real issue is that the prices in the restaurant are higher than similar places, including jennys, and the portion sizes aren't massive.

The room was pleasant, clean and comfortable. The guesthouse had all the facilities I needed such as hot showers, wifi, etc. Bagus also has a great bar/restaurant area which is... More

When you arrive, it looks good. Rooms basic but clean. Good location in a Bay. The problem is you can not sleep at night. The hotel is the place when the very young staff make parties with their locals friends. Start singing at 10p.m., drinking and smoking everything. At 2a.m., totally drunk, shouting all the time. Party usually finish after... More

I made a booking online and via telephone with the people at Bagus Bay Homestay, for 2 nights in late July.

Apparently, they do not hold bookings unless you... More
