Raja Ampat Family Guest House

I've never been to a homestay before and I had the best experience ever! Pedro and his family are really kind and provided me with everything I needed. Also when I needed to go to the hospital, Pedro took me and stayed until I got out and translated everything, he was so helpful. Also the rooms are really nice and clean and have the best value. The sunset from the property is amazing and you have a beautiful view over the sea, beach and the city. Food was also amazing and always enough! I would definitely recommend and I wish I could stay longer!

Pedro a été là pour nous aider à nous organiser. Il parle très bien anglais et est super efficace ! La nourriture est bonne et copieuse

The host and his family were amazing!

The view is super nice, I really liked the food and the owner Pedro is very kind and supportive. He had recommendations what to do and rented me a scooter to get there. I really liked my stay. It was wonderful

Très bon accueil Très bons repas.

Un peu excentré mais parfait pour une nuit de transit à Wasai.

Clean place, nice location, friendly and helpful family.

The food was a little basic.

صاحب الشقق شخص ودود للغاية سوف نعود بتأكيد

بعيد قليلا عن نقاط البيع لكنها ليست مشكلة يمكنك اخذ سكوتر من مكان

Pedro is an amazing host! So kind and so are his daughter and Sina :) he helped us out with everything and was always welcoming us with a smile. We have rented a scooter and could drive through Waisai by ourselves. The room was very comfortabel with AC and Pedro was right... no mosquitos!

Tout, et notamment la gentillesse Pedro et son hospitalité. Les chambres sont simples et toutes propres, la Clim fonctionne très bien et en silence, et nous avons hyper bien mangé. Il nous a organisé au dernier moment un excursion à la blue river, le tout avec un bon sourire permanent.

I wasn’t just a guest in a guesthouse, I really was a guest to the family - and a great family at that. Exceptional accommodation as well: clean, working AC, good food, great service. Thank you Pedro and family.

Such a nice place and host! Pedro is a very friendly and helpful guy. He even invited me to a local church ceremony followed by dinner and helped me a lot in finding and setting up a SIM card (despite the rain). He also has motorbikes to rent, in perfect condition. I can strongly recommend!

Nous avons passé 4 nuits, nous avons adoré ! La Propreté, la Climatisation, les Repas copieux et excellents et Pedro, notre hôte. Il nous a organisé et accompagné dans les sorties avec son ami chauffeur Omar (Kali Biru, Sapokren, tour de ville et marché traditionnel, Musée Geopark Raja Ampat, Park Afremegata Red bird of Paradise) tel un guide car il parle anglais. Tous deux toujours attentionnés et bienveillants. Pour prendre le ferry à notre départ, Omar s'est occupé d'acheter les billets et nous a conduit jusqu'à l'intérieur du bateau. Nous vous recommandons vivement ce lieu avec un rapport qualité prix exceptionnel ! Delphine et Cathy

Mais rien !!!

100% recommend Absolutely excellent stay if needed before or after yor trip to Raja Ampat. Great value. Family are really nice. They cook very nice food and plenty of it. Do choose half board. Room very comfortable with good aircon and bathroom, a treat after Raja Ampat. Beautiful views. We hired scooter couple days 150 p/d. Can arrange pick up / drop off ferry. BONUS they had cold beers in fridge.. AMAZING.

Pedro and his family were very lovely and helpful! The room was comfortable, A/C worked great, no "hot" showers but with the outside temperature the "cold" water was so warm anyway that you don't need "hot" water. We didn't realize when booking that the family not only provides breakfast (which was delicious and filling) but also dinner! They catered for vegetarians and made us a vegetarian dinner which was lovely. The views from the deck outside the room are great, perfect place for an evening beer or a game of cards, or just relaxing and reading a book. They have a little fridge where you can store some drinks or snacks, or you can buy beers from them if you'd prefer! The location is a bit out of the way from the main area of town, but they rent scooters if you want to get around, or it's easy to organize an ojek (moto taxi) to get where ever you need to be. There's also a convenience store a short 10-15 minute walk down the hill.

Very nice house with beautiful sea view on the terrace. Clean and good standard of rooms. Breakfast and dinner included - nice variety of food. Helpful owners - gave us motorbike to get from the ferry to the house.

Further from the center (if you want to go somewhere - not sure where, as dinner is included).

Best place to start your Raja Ampat adventure. Warm welcome, beautiful rooms and view. Amazing food! You can rent a scooter or do a tour (for a very reasonable price) to the blue lake. We had an amazing stay here.

Pedro et sa famille ont bien pris soin de nous. Tout est parfait. Pedro trouve toujours une solution pour mettre en œuvre votre projet. Nous sommes allés à la river bleue et il a trouve un guide et un bateau. Grâce à la location de scooter on a pu sillonner les alentours de Waisai qui sont très beaux. On recomande fortement ce homestay. Logement très propre et repas copieux et bons

Tout était vraiment parfait.

这里住宿很舒心，非常不错

Homestay tranquille et proche de la ville. Les Responsables sont très sympathiques et à l'écoute.

Great family business with great facilities

The view on the sea was a very nice surprise, and the kindness of Pedro and his family. Possibility and help to organize great excursions to blue river and to spot the birds of paradise

L’emplacement est super face a la mer. Pedro est très serviable. Il nous a présenté et proposé sa nouvelle gh Kalabia à 2 pas de là. Les commentaires sont dédiés à ce nouveau lieu

Clean and mostly quiet. Nice veranda. Friendly and helpful owner, who speaks English. However rooms are quite small (9-10 sq. m.)and there is not enough space for the luggage of two people. The Guesthouse is quite far from the city, which is good as it is quiet, but it is a long way to walk. One needs to rent a motorbike, which is available at the property for a very reasonable price.

Pedro est super gentil, il est tres serviable et s’occupe de tout organiser pour vous!

Le confort est un peu rudimentaire, mais pour le prix c’est tres correct

Pedro nos acogió estupendamente las dos ocasiones en las que nos hemos alojado. Ademas de una semana para otra mejoro las instalaciones. La cama es muy comoda. Sirven desayuno y cena incluido en el precio. Puedes alquilar moto con ellos y te ayuda en todo lo que puede. Michas gracias Pedro y familia!!

Nada, todo estaba bien!

Sehr leckeres Frühstück und Abendessen.

De ideale uitvalsbasis voor de red paradise en Wilsonbird te bezoeken.De tochten en vervoer werden geregeld door Pedro. Toen de mama wist dat we graag fruit aten werden we rijkelijk bediend met de heerlijkste vruchten.Hij heeft nieuwe gastenkamers gebouwd en die zijn zeer goed in orde naar hun normen

Niets

nice place with the view,nice people who take care of you, nice breakfast and dîner,they let some fresh water and tea available,wifi was pretty good,air conditionner work pretty well , everything you need to spend a good time. Thank you at the whole family

-a little bit far from the center (50mn by walk),need to take a taxi each time you want to move but not a big deal.

We loved this homestay - it was our favourite in all of Raja Ampat. We were provided with the luxuries in life, especially compared to the homestays on other islands - airconditioning and an ensuite bathroom with a proper shower. The room and bathroom were small but got the job done. Pedro and his family were so lovely and super accommodating. The food was lovely. There was a lovely balcony with a view of the sunset over the ocean. The scooter rental from the property was good value for money and Pedro provided a list of locals who could take us on tours around the island. We recommend it to anyone who is staying in Waisai

There was quite a lot of bugs once the sunset requiring us to retreat to our rooms and sometimes eat dinner in there - this is not the owners fault at all, just something to keep in mind when travelling to Raja Ampat in general. Also it rains a lot in Waisai - another thing to keep in mind. But as for the homestay itself, we had no issues!

Nice little homestay with a great view.

helpful and friendly host, comfortable bed, good air-conditioning, host serves breakfast and dinner

Very comfortable and clean place! The rooms are on the small side, but the bathroom and the bed are very comfortable. The staff is super friendly and helpfull. I would most definitely come back here!

Very attentive staff, good a/c, delicious dinner and breakfast included.

Great location. An awesome view over the sea, location is a bit up hill. Very friendly host was willing to help. Food was fresh and good, made by care. They put a cold beer in the fridge wich you pay afterwards. Really great homestay to start RA adventure. Daan, netherlands

We didn’t actually stay here because the room was mistakenly put up for 3 people but was only suitable for 2. However, Pablo was the best. He was there to pick us up from the harbour for free, showed us the room and apologised for the mixup. He refunded me and immediately hooked us up with another accommodation of his friend which was really good and drove us there. He also organised a taxi for us to go to the harbour the next day. Thank you!

Comfortable room. Great food provided by guesthouse family. Super friendly and helpfull with any requests or questions.s

Great view close to wIsai

- nice view from the terrace - tasty dinners - friendly and helpful owner and staff - beer and cold coke in a fridge - fresh drinkable water 24/7 - electricity and shower almost all day long

- we missed a mosquito net above the bed - small side lamps next to the bed for reading - small shelves or tables in a room to put out stuff - more hangers - maybe hammock outside on the terrace would be nice

Comfy bed, nice dinner, best views and sunset. Very friendly and helpful staff

The owner (Pedro) was really nice and always helpful. Whenever I needed clarification or a lift (taxi ride) somewhere, he would give me a ride on the back of his bike. His family and his employee (Steven) was also really nice and helpful.

The location is a little bit far from the main city. However, as mentioned previously, the owner is more than helpful in giving you a ride into the main town.

Really amazing people, we loved our time with Steven and his family. They have an N-Max which we paid a reasonable amount to rent and we had a nice time in Kali Biru with Steven

Pedro was always happy to answer questions and help with anything if he could.

Not very responsive by WhatsApp when I needed

nice location, which overlooks the bay, clean and relatively new, the young man working there is very helpful and speaks good enough English. Had a good stay there

nothing to complain

Comfortable bed, easy to organise excursions, good food.

Nothing

New & very clean. Great view of the sea from on high. Nice deck to sit at. Steven, a staff member, helps with whatever you need. The drink water has a hot & cold spigot. Cold water a treat in the tropics.

Everything was great! Maybe a shelf next to wall socket in case someone doesn't have long charging plug.

The best choice in Waisai, everything is very clean, comfortable bed, very good food. Beautiful sunsets from the terrace. The owner helped us organize a trip to the blue river for a good price

nothing

Pedro is amazing. He met me at the ferry terminal and took me to his guest house. The room was spacious with ensuite bathroom and Aircon which was incredible for the price. It was very clean, had a wonderful communal area with a library, tea, coffee and water station, and deck with a fantastic view back to town. Breakfast and dinner were included which was an added bonus. Pedro helped organise transport to the blue river which was very convenient and well priced and was very helpful with information about the area. And he even dropped me to the ferry when I left! Incredible service. Everything was amazing for a quick stopover in Waisai. I would definitely stay again. Thanks Pedro!

Gorgeous sunset view from the veranda, comfy bed, working AC. Basic food but always enough and was always tasty. The host was so helpful organising a tour to the forest to see the red paradise birds and letting us borrow a motorbike to get there. Not a lot going on especially if you can't/are not prepared to drive, but overall a great stay!

Great place to stay in Waisai, I stayed one night for layover en route to homestay on Gam Island. The 2 rooms are both clean and comfortable and as presented online. Pedro is a great host - super friendly, happy to set us up with a Birds of Paradise Tour in town.

Would just note that location is a bit distant from any shops / restaurant - about 20 minutes by walk. That said, Pedro cooked dinner and was always happy to set us up with a scooter to borrow or a quick taxi / scooter ride.

Beautiful place with an amazing view from the balcony, very helpful host and great food, breakfast and dinner are included.

A bit far away from the center

Great location with ocean view from the terrace. Pedro (and his family) is a friendly host and try to do everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Breakfast and diner are included. Simple but good. It´s a bit far from the city but we liked to be between the local people who are so friendly as well. On the terrace you have books about Raja Ampat and even binoculars so you can watch the birds. Ask Pedro to rent a motorbike and explore this island as well before you go to one of the other island for your (probably) dive or snorkel experiences. This island is more than just a transfer stop for one day.

I can't think of anything right away actually

Pedro is a kind host and super helpfull. We stayed one night before leaving to the islands and this was a great spot. Air-conditioning, shower, beautiful scenery, and they even provided dinner for us! Definitely recommend this place.

None

The owner is so kind and will help you around, food was really nice

everything was very good, the room and premises are clean and new. The view from the terrace is very beautiful. The family is very kind and helped us if we needed. They can pick you up and take you back to the port. The air conditioning works well.

Nothing

Beautiful stay in a suggestive structure surrounded by nature. Very clean facility. We were welcomed by a very welcoming family, very willing to meet our needs. The host Pedro was able to give us excellent suggestions for our travels, even outside Waisai, speaking the English language very well. Excellent view, excellent structure in the traditional context of Papua, we celebrated the birthday as if we were at home, and prepared the typical traditional dish with the hosts: Papeda! Highly recommended, we will be back!
