Hamueco Raja Ampat Dive Resort(Hamueco Dive Resort Raja Ampat)

I stayed in one of the over water cabins which are perfect to listen to the waves and watch sunsets on your own terrace. The cabins are simple but there is everything you need, even an AC. Don't get confused if the resort's website isn't working, they can provide all the information by email. They can arrange all the transfers from Sorong airport to make the arrival smooth. This is a perfect place to have amazing diving vacations. The best dive sites in Central Raja Ampat are only 10-15 minutes boat ride away. Gabi the dive guide is very professional and takes you to see amazing underwater life. With my 500+ dive experience my top 5 list for the best dive sites is: Five Rocks, Chicken reef (Kri Island), Blue Magic, Sardine reef and Mioskon. The resort is a great place for bird watchers as well and they can arrange bird guides and tours. All the staff are always happy and polite. Esra the customer relations officer and translator takes great care of everyone. He is always happy to help you with everything. Because you can't buy anything from the resort, for example candies or beverages, Esra will arrange you anything you need from local shops. Be aware that all alcohol is prohibited on the property. The resort serves absolutely amazing halal food. It is simple and delicious. The breakfast is around 7 am, the lunch at noon and the dinner at 7 pm. I strongly recommend this place for everyone who wants to spend a quiet and super relaxed vacation and just enjoy the beauty of this lush island.

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
