HamuEco Dive Resort Raja Ampat | Hotel in Waisai, West Papua

“It's a 25 minute drive from the ferry terminal and town, so a prefect spot to get away from it all. Olin Diving can pick you up at the lodge (fantastic guides who speak English pretty well) or you can dive with with the local staff from the resort.”

“This is NOT a dive resort!!! Diving costs are extremely expensive Waisai dive resorts are more reasonable. The rooms are basically glorified shacks and the food is mediocre. Also, the picture is not accurate.”

“We only stayed for one night. We chose this hotel because it was close to the ferry and we needed to make sure we were on the morning ferry. They made sure that we had a driver pick us up, ferry tickets bought for us, and porters to help with luggage. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. It even had AC! Quite a luxury. ”

“Very cozy room with a balcony that we really loved. Food that was served was ok. And the staff was friendly. Special thanks to Irman for taking care of us. Unfortunately for us is that the activities they offer are very expensive. Specially compared to other islands in Indonesia. But this phenomenon was in raja ampat in general. Not just our resort. Maybe there are other places were it's cheaper but we didn't find any. Other than activities in the resorts there isn't much to do in the surrounding area. The nearest town didn't have much to offer so you're a bit stuck on the resort. Because of this we would just recommend staying 2 nights in a resort around here. Then move on to some other islands. Would also been good if they really had motorbikes to rent out. Last day we wanted to go out for the evening but they were occupied by staff that went to the market. So we ended up just sitting around at the resort. WiFi would also be nice for those evenings sitting in the cabin”

“Lovely rooms. Larger than expected. The single rooms over the water could easily take 2 people and beach cabins had 2 double beds. Clean, friendly courteous service. Can what’s app the resort to organise transport. Provided English speaking manager to organise activities. Bird watching for Red and Wilson’s Birds of paradise particularly excellent. The guide has build rail on walking track and bird hides at both spots. Good snorkling just off the pier.”
