I was fortunate as I was given the newly refurbished water bungalow. A little small but good enough for myself. The dive shop wasn't operating for some reason and I was asked to join the diving with Arborek Dive Shop instead. Of the 4 nights I was there, even though I have attempted to converse with them for other recreational trip, there is hardly any response. They didnt turn up for the local fishing trip on the second morning (and I wasted the entire morning) and did not prepare breakfast for me on the 3rd morning for some reason. Power is available le from 6pm to 6am and the connection was good. Food is tasty and more than sufficient for me.

We spent 2 nights here and if we could have add one more night we would have done it without hesitation ! The homestay is managed by Enrick & Tia, a lovely couple ! The food is perfect, the accommodations are clean and comfortable ! They also have a diving center next to the homestay ! The equipments are new - open in January ! We did 2 dives and it was perfect, very safe ! I highly recommend this place ❤️

It’s a great Homestay but the prices on Agoda have doubled, which is a real shame… we would have liked to come back for longer because it’s a great place 😊

The value for money is simply unbeatable in Raja Ampat:- the bungalows are standard, nothing special- the staff is top notch- the meals are rather varied, which is appreciable compared to other homestays- ask for advice there is a snorkeling spot at the pontoon of another homestay which is just sensational. We went there several times and saw: manta rays, eagle rays, sharks, turtles, lion fish, in short, the best!Little bonus: baby sharks and stingrays that can be observed from the pontoon

We really enjoyed our stay and spontaneously extended it.If you are looking for the real, simple life, this is the perfect place for you. Hendrik and the host family are very polite and try to fulfill all your wishes.The best thing was the food. Delicious vegetables and the best grilled fish we've ever had. Straight from the sea to the table.The location of the rooms is great and you have your own sun lounger and hammock on the small balcony.However, if you are looking for 24-hour electricity, running water and a king-size bed, you should go to a resort.
