This is a homestay, basic room but extremely clean, Husna is an absolutely amazing person! Safe area, she gave us foot directions to a great dinner place. Husna has a wonderful place and is a great host. Great breakfast, refreshments throughout the day, a wealth of information about the area, flora and customs 😊.

staff, by far best staff for me so far, Brazel and his brother are doing everything for you to make your stay at Vogelkopf better, food was great, there is no much variety but the quality is top, one day fish wasn't top prepared and staff was going at every table apologise with free beer...

The food is exceptional, home-cooked on site, delivered to your table with love and it was all absolutely delicious. The staff were wonderful, especially Madya who helped out with everything and arranged for us to move to an overwater room at no extra cost when a cancellation made it possible. If you go to raja ampat, Coriana is luxurious compared to most.

10/10 - We loved Raja Ampat Bungalows and had a perfect and unforgettable time. We would choose to come back here over and over again. Before we even started our journey to Raja Ampat we had a fantastic communication with the homestay. They gave us all the important information in advance what to think off so we felt very prepared by the time we arrived. This was super helpful!!! (Thanks again for that) The host Ringo is by far the best host we met on our trip (we have been to several other homestays). Ringo is a very kind host, super helpful with planning tours/ exchanging experience and he also speaks very good English. The food is very delicious - every day was something different. When we went diving our homestay packed us lunches. We were always very excited to eat. The bungalows were clean, cosy and all you are looking for in a relaxing retreat on a remote island. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience and time. Very much appreciated! Pearce&Daniela

This was our first homestay, so we had not experienced this type of accommodation. We are older and independent travelers. It was very simple but adequate. The bungalow was waterfront and the construction was of natural materials. The bed was off the floor. The food was good and varied. All meals had a vegetable/fruit/protein/starch. The grilled fish was amazing. Water is provided in your room. Nelly did a load of wash and used the soap I provided as requested. It turned out great! It has a tankless toilet as is the custom in many places here. We got a little glimpse into village life. The house reef was really great, with little current. Access to great snorkel sites is easy. There is a gentleman who sells beer and snacks by the dive shop which was a nice addition to this simple operation. Will, the dive master, speaks great english. He would arrange for snorkel/dive trips with local boatmen. He made sure that the requested snorkel site was safe from current action. Once you requested a dive site, he put it on the whiteboard and others could join in if desired by both parties. Then the cost of the boat was split amongst the individuals. Good value. We didn't request a guide so not sure if that is an option. We had a raging storm and were snug and dry. They staff picks up soiled waste baskets if you put them on the from porch. They will refill your water jug this way as well. Electricity is on from 7pm-midnight and the fan worked well then. As per advise from trip advisor forum, we brought a little 4 inch fan and attached it to our battery pack, put it on the foot of the bed and were quite comfortable. Towels are provided. There was help with our luggage which was much appreciated. They picked us up from our previous lodging by boat. They were on time and the communication regarding this was very good.

Nienke and Rio are the guardian angels of this heavenly island. You can tell they like their job and do their best. The location is breathtakingly spectacular, the food is good and the excusions are amazing.
