"Really nice place but our villa had holes in the window screens and gaps in the walls that let the mosquitoes in and the cool air out. Like several places we stayed in Indonesia there was no top sheet and the blankets were too thick for us. Also, the lighting consisted of one naked bulb on the ceiling, with no reading light. So, this would have been a great stay if I had bought mosquito repellent, a tropical sleep sack, and my head lamp. "

"We stayed here for a 2 day layover before a pick up by our live aboard and found the resort and staff to be a wonderful introduction to Raja Ampat. The service is impeccable, the on-site restaurant/bar delicious, and we took full advantage of their free boat ride to a beautiful nearby private island (they’ll drop you off and pick you up) both days for snorkeling. Rooms are small but clean and comfortable. "
