Boasting accommodation with a balcony, Batanta Panorama Guest' Hause is located in Pulau Batanta. Situated on the beachfront, this property features a private beach area and a terrace. Staff on-site can arrange a shuttle service.

With an outdoor fireplace and a picnic area, this holiday home offers ample opportunities to wind down. We stayed at Panorama guesthouse for a week during low season and it has been amazing. James and his family always went an extra mile to make us feel at home and to help us with moving around Batanta and organising our trip in a fast and reliable way(including picking us up from Waisai and taking us to Sorong). We felt welcomed and taken care of.  The house is basic, but fully new and spacious, they cleaned it every three days, they changed bed sheets, mosquito net is new, comfortable bed, there is everything you need.  The food was always freshly cooked, tasty and abundant. We always had veggies raw and cooked, rice, noodles, fresh fish/tempeh and tofu and fruit. They gave us fruit and little cakes as snacks, coffee and tea are always available. Breakfast was also good and satisfying.  The private beach is just heaven, quiet and relaxing. There is a great coral reef right in front of the house, we saw many fishes and a baby shark. You can see sunset and sunrise directly from the house.  You can visit the small village next to the house, 5 mins by walk. There is a diving center (gears top notch) 20 mins far by boat where we had a great night dive.  We would definitely recommend this place to everyone that wants to live a local experience in a edenic place very off the beaten track.  It's a place and a holiday we'll never forget.  Thank you James and family for the lovely stay!

The accommodation provides private check-in and check-out and a minimarket for guests. This homestay on Besir island is ideally located near several interests spots in Raja Ampat. The place is calm, only two cabins on the water, connected to a village full of charm. The utilities are on the beach, near the owner's house. It's very clean and has everything required to answer basic needs. Regarding the rooms, mosquito net on the bed, fan, electricity at night, blankets, hammock, sunbed and basic furnitures. All the meals (included in the reservation) are served to your cabin, they vary and are prepared by an great cook! So everything is tasteful and good. No connection except if you get a SIM card on arrival at Sorong's airport but deconnection is great. It's easy to communicate with the owner who speaks well English (rare in Raja Ampat) and he tries his best for you to have the best stay possible. Him and his family are super nice and welcoming while respecting your privacy. I came with a friend and we stayed 3 full days, we had an amazing time there and we can only recommend this place. All the activities we've done through them were memorable, we had a lot of fun. Have a good holiday there!

Facing the seafront in Yennanas Besir, Efenli Arnes homestay has a private beach area and a terrace. This holiday home offers free private parking and full-day security. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. Great, charming homestay on Gam Island. I found the place to be very clean, tastefully decorated and the food exceptional (best food I had in my three weeks in Indonesia so far: fresh fish caught by our host, Arnes, and grilled to perfection with a multitude of healthy and delicious side dishes cooked up by Lina). A peaceful haven with beautiful views, yet ideally located to reach the nearby dive centers. 100 % would come again if I could. Terima kasih 🥰 + 10 points for the cute puppy

For guests with children, Raja Ampat Blue Sea features an indoor play area and babysitting service. With an outdoor fireplace and a picnic area, this holiday home offers ample opportunities to unwind. I loved the place! That reef that you see in the picture has the most amazing corals and sea life. It's perfect for snorkeling or just swimming. Paulus is a wonderful host, very proud of the beauty of the islands where he lives, and he will take you on an amazing trip to enjoy this paradise. He's very into nudibranches and little ocean creatures. He has few books about the ocean life in the dining room to enjoy. Regarding the bungalows, they are comfortable, with their own bathroom and a table to prepare your morning tea or coffee. They will bring you the rest of your breakfast. Lunch and dinner are really good! The atmosphere amongst the people who stay in the bungalows is nice and friendly. We all shared great times together, even though we met for one or 2 days. And the highlight of the accommodation is Paula, the cure cuscus who loves bananas. I'm so happy about choose this place to stay. I'll be happy to come back in the future!

Set in Besir in the West Papua region, "Shady Sea Raja Ampat" features a terrace and mountain views. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. Staff on-site can arrange a shuttle service. What a wonderful homestay in a stunning location. Julia,her family and staff were fabulous hosts always very friendly even though we had a language barrier. They provided a superb escape to relax and unwind. We stayed for 8 nights which to some may seem too long but there was plenty to do with the day trips on offer all of which were far cheaper than resort prices. We hired kayaks for a day, visited the local village as well as enjoying plenty of snorkeling trips. Visited Tanjung putus channel twice, Friwen, Arborek Island, Manta trip, Gam bay jellyfish and bat cave. All trips were well organised with lunch provided as needed. Travel was by long boat, great fun with Andre and Billy. The homestay is clean and well maintained with plenty of water for drinking and washing. The food was terrific, Julia and her sister are very good cooks. The meals were varied and tasty. We loved the fresh fish, chicken, omelettes and the variety of fresh vegetable dishes. The fresh fruit, banana fritters, pancakes, small cakes and donuts were v good too. Meal times were breakfast at 7, lunch at midday, snack at 4 then dinner at 7. Our only difficulty was that our eSIM provider didn’t work there (some guests had 4G). This meant we couldn’t use google translate so sometimes communication was tricky. We learned to trust their organisation and go with the flow as they were always out to give us the best time. We give this homestay 10 out of 10. It’s a wonderful way to get the genuine homestay experience with lovely locals.

Set in Kri in the West Papua region, GIBRAN Guesthouse bunggalow has a terrace and garden views.

The holiday home is composed of 1 bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and 2 bathrooms.

Guests at the holiday home can enjoy a halal breakfast. The Raja Ampat homestays are all quite similar in terms of amenities and comfort, and this is probably on par with those. For homestays in the area, we found the food to be quite good. (Fruit at every meal!)
