Raja Ampat Blue Sea was such a unique and authentic experience for us. Paulus and his family were incredibly kind, friendly, and knowledgeable. The bungalows are simple but come with a private bathroom, which was a nice bonus.
The food was delicious and plentiful, with vegetarian options available on request. We eagerly looked forward to every meal. You’ll also get an afternoon snack with coffee.
Snorkeling from the jetty was always accessible, regardless of the tide, and it was one of the best snorkeling experiences we’ve had. The coral and fish were stunning. While the current can sometimes be strong, you can still stay near the jetty and see plenty of marine life.
The nearby village is just a short walk away, where you can buy cold drinks. Beyond the village, in the forest, you can go birdwatching with a local guide and spot the Bird of Paradise.
Paulus, the owner of Raja Ampat Blue Sea, is an exceptional and skilled guide. He’s a macro guide and a big fan of nudibranchs, introducing us to the most incredible snorkeling spots that we would have never found on our own. We didn’t know we were nudibranch fans until we met Paulus, but now we’re hooked!
The warmth of Paulus and his family made the stay even more special. The kids might show you to your room—even though they don’t speak much English, you’ll figure things out. At times, you might not know exactly what’s going on, but if you're seeking an authentic Papuan experience, this is the place. It’s not your average homestay—it might feel a bit rustic, but it’s full of heart and gives you a real glimpse into Papua’s soul. We only wish we could return.

Turtle Dive Homestay is a phantastic place to enjoy Raja Ampat. The staff is pretty nice and the Dive Instructors are very good too (Thanks for everything Will and Rufus). We booked 2 nights and extended for 2 more. The food is delicious and always enough. The Housereef is great and you could easily see loads of fish, reefsharks and of course - Turtles - the name is program.. we had a great time here.

- nice fishes at night around the bungalow (small sharks and big eagle ray)
- lovely kids
- sunrise and sunset
- power all day

- some shops around
- in general a flat island, which you can easily completely explore in about half an hour
The family is so friendly and helpful. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are provided. The food was incredible, with different options and big portions! The room sits on the water so you can swim around, beautiful quiet location for sunrises and sunsets!
