Hamueco Dive Resort Raja Ampat

Rustic camp feel with nice meals and caring staff 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.

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.
