Very clean and neatly maintained accomodation, friendly staff and cleverly engineered eco-friendly lodge. The sunsets from the jetty and the reef beneath it were spectacular. The food, whether in the restaurant or lunch kits for on the dive tours, was superb.

Wow, where to begin? We didn't have much expectations coming to Terimakasih, but the stay completely exceeded any expectation we could have formed.
The pictures on booking don't do the property justice; the cabins, view, restaurant, general facilities were all excellent. The staff was so friendly, and always ready to help. They cleaned the cabin daily and we got banana fritters as snack in the afternoon (still dreaming about them). It was so relaxing in the hammock on the porch, and it wasn't hot with the breeze from the ocean. It was my happy place for a small week. The house reef was colourful and full of fish. In the evening we saw bioluminesence around the cabin in the water.
As far as homestays go- this one outshines them (speaking for experience). I'd rather you didn't book so there will always be a place for me, but I understand if you do based on this review :)
It has all the ingredients for a wonderful vacation. Thanks, Mario + team.

It was great to have our own bathroom and shower, and a deck with hammocks for relaxing. The location near chicken reef was perfect for snorkeling. We were also thankful that they were willing to take us to our next location when our arranged boat did not arrive- very much appreciated!!

Resort was very peaceful, beautiful & remote, only a few guests while I was here. room was on the larger side with a nice sitting area that was within 10m of the beach.
Diving was amazing... price was on the cheaper side, so overall I am glad I stayed here.
This beachfront property offers access to darts. On clear days, guests can head outside to enjoy the homestay's outdoor fireplace.

Beautiful homestay
Very spacious. Inside and outside on the terrace
Wonderful bird songs every morning (not the case in other homestays)
So much life inside and outside of water
Really good to stay away and enjoy the peace
Food delivered to the room you also get tea/coffee all day and drinking water all delivered to your room.
I fell sick with fever during my stay and spent a few days only at the homestay and I enjoyed the view and just sleeping in the hammock and taking in all the breathtaking views.
The staff helped us a few time with our problems. When I lost my rash guard the staff offered to buy one from waisai for us without extra charge which was very helpful considering the remote location
There is a white board to write down the tours and dates you are interested in so that others can know and maybe share the tour and the cost
Unforgettable sunsets!

Amazing hospitality! The home-cooked food, the amazing dive guide Braum and Papuan crew, the coordination of Sarah, everything exceeded expectations! We loved the international crowd and hostel vibes (but with private bungalows) and dining room on the water. We’d happily stay here again.

It was our best stay in Raja Ampat, room is super roomy and clean, the little balcony has all you need - a table with cushions, a net and a hammock. And the bungalow is facing the sun in a way that it doesn't get really hot during the day. A huge plus for a place that has no AC. And staff here is just absolutely amazing, Nima and Ringga, they're just amazing human beings that help you arranging your tours and suggesting you what you should do, they also speak perfect English. The shared bathroom and showers are also super clean and quite good quality comparing to our previous Homestay in the region. Also you're 2 minutes snorkel away from the coral reefs where we saw sharks, turtles, cuttlefish, Nemo and plenty other fishes.
Would definitely return.
The location is very beautiful. Beautiful landscapes, it's a shame that it's starting to become a tourist location. Plastic started appearing everywhere, in the water and on the ground. The locals are only interested in money, they do nothing against plastic pollution. Upon entering the area, you are charged a fee used for the maintenance and development of the area, but I personally have not seen anything in this regard. The prices of products and transport are very high compared to other areas, being justified by the high price of fuel. In my opinion, this fuel price is not as high as the locals claim, being the only reason for the excessively high prices and the desire for profit. The area and location are very beautiful, being places dedicated to nature lovers and especially those passionate about diving and snorkling.

Pulau Mansuar is a somewhat remote island in Raja Ampat (but there are much more remote islenads there), with m,ost of the accmmodations accessible from the beach only with a speedboat - which gives one of the charms of it. The other one is the stunning reef all around the island. Sawaranek is supposed the best, but to tell the trurt, all other places we visited were similar. The Manta point neart to Mansuar should not be missed = but make sure you buy in adnvanve (in Waisai) the - otherwise obligatpry - entry PIN for that.

Best Raja Ampat Homestay is a very simple accommodation by our standards, reasonably clean but you have to make certain compromises. We were there for scuba diving and this was really outstanding. Noldy is a very good divemaster and we dived all the well known spots, but also other not so well-known but no less beautiful dive sites. After 40 years of diving I would like to say that Raja Ampat is the end of a long journey. Unfortunately, there are no planned restrictions on tourism, so we can only hope that this region will be spared development like Egypt.
