We are located on Nyang Nyang Island, also known as Palau Masokut in the Northern Mentawai region, sometimes referred to as "Playgrounds".
Driftwood is situated right on the point of Ebay, one of the best lefts in the Mentawais.
We offer both private and shared room packages. Our all-inclusive rates start at €196 per night and include your accommodation, surf guiding, boat transfers, food, snacks and more.
Each room balances modern comfort with traditional Mentawai craftsmanship. With only 12 guests at a time, the resort never feels crowded — the right mix of privacy and community. From sunrise to sunset, the ocean is always at your doorstep.
Driftwood sits on one of the best setups in the Mentawai region, with a right and a left breaking just out front. Within walking distance you’ll find five world-class waves, and less than 25 minutes by boat opens the door to another twenty.
The Mentawai Islands and Driftwood offer a lot more than mind-blowing barrels. With snorkeling, island hopping, spearfishing, jungle hikes, bintangs and so much more... We've got you covered!
Our resort has a total of 6 bedrooms, with a maximum capacity of 12 guests. Not hosting more than 2 guests per bedroom, we hold ourselves to a high standard of comfort.
The Treehouse hosts 2 rooms, offering A/C, incredible views, private bathrooms and unrivalled comfort among the palm trees.
The 2 Bungalows offer A/C, private sun decks, private bathrooms, and great jungle views.
The Family Villa is a 2 story wonder. This recent construction includes two balconies, huge floor space, A/C throughout, private bathrooms and enough space for 4 people.
Remote work has changed surf travel. Instead of squeezing a Mentawai trip into annual leave, more surfers are building their year around swell seasons, flexible schedules, and destinations that support both work and waves. Here's what digital nomad life at Driftwood actually looks like.
Discover why meals have become such a memorable part of the Driftwood experience, from fresh seafood and tropical fruit to community dinners after long days in the water.
Could El Niño influence Indonesia's 2026 surf season? We break down what current climate forecasts suggest, how the Mentawais could be affected, and why forecast nerds, strike mission crews, and returning guests are already paying attention.
