Amazing place. Its a luck we got a friend recommend this place. Its a bit of challenge to coordinate about our pick up at 1st but we faced the same issues with other locals.Once we arrived, we're in love with the place, their hospitality, their food, and you can do snorkeling around. 2 days we saw black fin sharks, dolphins, turtles, and bunch of fishes and beautiful corals only a swim away.This place located in sawinggrai village, so you can easily find warungs in walking distance.Bapa Saka is a fisherman. He spear fishing our dinner, and Mama Saka really make an effort for our 3x meals. I love the pisang goreng she made us.Compared with other accommodation available on travel app, this one is worth the value for us. They put effort on the decorations too.This one worth a 5stars rating on google and more photos. We take the effort to update their google info as a proof how happy we are staying here.

The host family in Binn Betew is super friendly, courteous, reliable and happy. From the first moment on, you feel very welcome and comfortable.The homestays are built over the water and offer a great view and everything you need. There is a mosquito net, the bed sheets are changed weekly, a bath towel and free access to coffee are provided.Included in the price are 3 (very delicious and rich) meals, which are prepared with a lot of love and creativity in the kitchen directly behind the homestay.The toilet is located near the homestay. You have to walk up a small stairs. The toilet facilities are clean and even have a working shower head.Although the family speaks little English, they are very helpful and open-minded. Communication by mobile phone is not always guaranteed due to the external circumstances. However, the family is always close to the homestay and you can always speak to them and they always try to fulfill all your wishes.I definitely recommend a stay at Binn Betew Homestay and hopefully will be able to visit the family again soon.Thank you for everything.

Great homestay with loving hosts!We stayed at Binn Betew Homestay for 4 nights and were very happy with the little cabins over the water! The rooms are clean, the bed is comfortable and has a mosquito net. The shared bathroom was also decorated in a Western style. There was a “normal” toilet and a shower (slightly salty).You can snorkel directly from the hut and see countless fish, turtles, sharks, water snakes, starfish and corals in all colors. We also saw dolphins from our terrace.You can also see hornbills, cockatoos and the bird of paradise if you venture a little into the jungle.The only downside is that you can only snorkel at high tide. Therefore, you should check the tides before booking so that you don't have low tide all day (like we did) and can only go snorkeling in the late afternoon.The family is very nice and there is fantastic food every day - and so much. There was always way too much and we could never finish it all.Unfortunately, all three of us upset our stomachs (probably with the drinking water) and therefore had some problems. But here I don't see the hosts being to blame, as the water supply is somewhat more difficult throughout Raja Ampat. Simply take a water filter or tablets (Micropur forte) with you and then it should be fine.If you are looking for pure luxury and are not adventurous, are afraid of creepy crawlies in the room or mice and geckos on the roof, you should avoid this and all other homestays!Despite the gastrointestinal problems, we were very happy with everything here!
