Dear James and family, Thank you so much for making our stay in Batanta so comfortable. We will always remember your kindness, our adventure at the waterfall and swimming with manta rays 🫶🏻 The home stay is exactly as described, really comfortable bed, cold water to shower and wonderful panorama. In front of the stay there is a coral reef where you can snorkel. We saw nurse sharks, stingrays, thousands of fish and beautiful coral formations. Somedays also dolphins visited us. If you wish you can do other activities like going to the nearby village which is one of the last traditionally built one in raja ampat. We went with James to swim with manta rays which was a great success as we saw two circling around for at least half an hour. Also, there are two waterfalls with a beautiful mangrove forest which is 30 mins by boat, we swam there and saw a bit of the jungle. The food was excellent, we were really happy to try local fish. It always had enough veggies, rice and egg tortillas. Even our vegetarian friends were satisfied. For the afternoon coffee we got freshly baked cakes. PRO tips for travelers: - Bring your own snorkeling equipment - Don’t litter and take your trash back with you to Waisai. At the port you can throw it away. - Be mindful about water usage - Use biodegradable hygiene products if possible - They don’t speak much English but for us it made it the experience even more authentic. if you need get an offline translation app

Beautiful homestay with only two little houses by the sea on the beach. It was truly paradise!! Very friendly family and excellent food. Nice house reef. Well arranged excursions to see dugong and casuary.

Amazing place; direct contact with nature; very well managed; the resort is focused on diving, but I did snorkeling while my husband did scuba diving; we found the professionals to be extremely polite and focused on their specific areas; the rooms are a good size and well decorated; you have an incredible view of the sunset no matter where you are in the resort; at the time we went (August) and while we were there, we had a diver to accompany me in snorkeling and a diver to accompany my husband in scuba diving; the food is great and very tasty.
