Enjoyed the diving, but it is not nearly as good as many places (Caribbean, Red Sea, Barrier Reef). About on par with HI and CA.

No internet router, had to use a staff member's cell phone hot spot when I could track her down. No airconditioning in room. They changed another $40 for transport to and from the hotel. They gave very little information about how to get there. There is a public speed boat that serves the island from Sorong 9 a.m. and 2 PM daily, not optimal for using one's time efficiently.

“The most overpriced place I've ever stayed!!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Deluxe Twin Room with Sea View
- • Stayed 4 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Ridiculously overpriced at £150 a night!!! Should be £50. Food is very average and always the same: chicken and rice. £150 a night??? No alcohol/snacks/entertainment. NO internet. Very isolated. Too much for me. Had really bad scuba diving experience. Instructor told me I needed to do a refresher course/dive before diving (agreed as hadn't dived for a long time) but then he treated me like everyone else when out on the excursion and there was no refresher course so I didn't know what I was doing and couldn't dive!!! Totally confusing and unprofessional. Had to spend 2 hours just sitting on the boat while other people dived. I got no apology. They're only interested in the money. Poor communication from the property re: organising my trip. Late or no responses to messages meant I had to book a night in Sorong as only 1 or 2 boats a day so you must make sure you get back for your flights. Nothing on website about this. A/c only from 9 till 6 overnight. Rats running across the roof at night. Noise coming from the bathroom. Work going on during the day so not relaxing if you're not diving/snorkelling. Stained bedding. Not sure if clean/changed. Would never go back.
Easy to organise excursions. Friendly staff. Lovely excursion island-hopping.

“A very good place to be introduced to Raja Ampat”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Deluxe Twin Room with Sea View
- • Stayed 3 nights
Nobody alerted us that as we moved from the ferry to the boat pier at Waisai, you had to register and pay a one year visitors fee before leaving the boat pier (Rp500,000 for locals, Rp1,000,000 about US$70, plus 2.5% bank charges, for international visitors and KITAS holders). Prepare for long queues and long wait, the service is manually processed. No AC or fan while you wait. The air was moist through out our stay. If you want your laundry to dry, try drying it in the sun. The room has AC between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m., but it gets cool (only) when it rains outside. One's travel in the area very much depends on the weather and sea conditions. Don't go traveling on a boat, even a two engine speed boat, when it's about to rain or when it's raining, not worth it, unless you're going scuba diving accompanied by a local dive master. If you wish to go snorkeling, even just in the waters in front of the resort, ask for a dive center staff to look after you, the service is not automatic. Otherwise, have fun!
The location was excellent, not too far by boat ride from the Waisai ferry port, and the corals and fish on the RADR jetty were already a pleasant surprise when first arriving there. I just wanted to start diving into the waters. The room facility was very good for an eco resort: comfy spring bed, with mosquito nets, 24 hrs fan (up to the guest whether to leave it on or not), gas fired hot water 24 hrs, electricity 24 hrs, laundry service, a well run restaurant, a well stocked dive center, and boats available for rent (with knowledgeable crew) to take you diving or snorkeling. The room was cleaned daily, and fresh towels, every two days. It also has a laundry service (not always available in other eco resorts in the area). The restaurant provides 3 meals a day (local dishes, prepared by Steffen and Ann), and snacks for tea time (it has a fridge stocked with cold beer, for one who enjoys a glass of beer with one's meal, or after a wonderful outing). The resort is next to the local jungle, and the sound of birds in the morning and at dusk, was extraordinary. No roosters crowing, just local wild birds, with their exotic voices. The jetty in front of the main lobby/restaurant is worth visiting in the early morning or late afternoon as the sun sets. And snorkeling is, like, whenever you feel like it. It's just a matter of diving in at the end of the jetty. The duty manager, Vera, was extremely helpful and caring in taking care of guests' needs and requests, to the extent within her means (she couldn't control the weather, for instance). It was a delightful stay

There was a general bad smell (like sewage), the prices to the trips were very expensive. One of the nights of our stay they received 20 People and allowed them very loud music (night and at 7am!) i even asked the guests to lower a bit at 7am but they didnt matter, the staff should have helped maintaining the peace and quiet of the place.
The cabins were really nice and have private bathroom! The views are great and you can arrange the diving trips From there. The food was generally good (i would suggest a bit more variety as we had chicken almost for everymeal) maybe more fish

Way too expensive for what the resort offered. Food was low quality and lacked variety, often get the same lunches and dinners in a row. Too quite in the evening no music or entertainment, guests felt uncomfortable talking to each other it was that quite. No wifi is irritating.
Staff were friendly, dives were excellent and professional. Beach is clean and beautiful.
