B&Bs in Pulau Saonek-kecil

The hosts were very accomodating and friendly.

The rooms are big, but very outdated. Showering is rather difficult because there is no showerhead and bucket bathing is not easy either because there is nothing to scoop the water from. It's okay for one night, but if you are looking for sth a bit more comfortable after having spent some time in bungalows, I wouldn't recommend this place. The staff is really friendly and helpful though!

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

Amazing Staff , Husna is the best. So friendly and helping all the time of all what I needed. I recommend a lot Sandy ghesthouse.

The hostess is incredibly friendly and helpful, always smiling and trying to address any of your requests. She speaks very good English, communicates very efficiently and has a in-depth knowledge of the activities in Waisai and surrounding islands. Highly recommended.

It's enough of what I needed. Friendly people, 2 separate rooms with one a bed, one a couch. Close to the local market. Perfect stay for 2 people. Don't expect too much luxury but price matches

Manager Sisi (i dont know how to spell her name) was absolutely perfect - she speaks english very good, so it makes everything easier. Thanks to her I had all infomation I needed before the trip. Accomodation is good, it is simple bungalow but you dont need anything “more fancy” if you going to Raja Ampat. Food was absolutely delicious - I was worried that maybe there won’t be enough food for all the guests and we will be hungry, but it was so far from the truth. We had 3 very tasty meals, fruit ans whole day there were also cookies, bread and spreads, bananas. So you wont be hungry here for sure. House reef is also very nice. We did one trip to Sauwandarek village which I totally recommend. Everything went smooth including our transfer and I can only recommend to stay here.

We enjoyed our stay at Amfriwen. The bungalow was clean, had a fan, a mosquito net and a little shelf space. The veranda and the view were amazing. The bathroom was outside and for us one of the better facilities during our stay in Raja ampat. The food was very simple but always enough. We enjoyed our stay and say thank you to the lovely family.

Words can't describe how amazing the experience was. Paparisa is a brand new, small, private and secluded homestay with the nicest houses in Kri Island by far (compared to all the other homestays). The place has five "resort level" cosy houses with ensuite semi-open air bathroom (rare in Raja Ampat), big nice comfortable beds with mosquito net, a small private terrace in each house to relax or to watch the sunset and a small restaurant to enjoy your meals (they are building a nice sunset view big restaurant which they said will be ready by September 2025). They provide towels, toilet paper and linen so no need to bring yours. They have some toiletries but better bring some extra shampoo and shower gel for your convenience. Electricity is available almost half of the day and it is more than enough to charge anything in your room! The sea is just three meters from your door so you can easily swim whenever you want. This is also very convenient for diving or excursion's pickups as the boats pick you up straight from your door to go for diving or for a trip! Also, in walking distance you can snorkel in very amazing home reefs on your own. Paparisa rents for a small amount of money snorkeling equipment and these guys can also arrange several snorkeling trips to anywhere in the area. They also have contacts around so don't hesitate to ask them for anything you need! The communication before arrival through WhatsApp was exceptional and they have helped us a lot with our planning (the boat from Waisai to Kri arranged by them and a lot more). The food in the place is very tasty and feels like home and they are willing to cater any special dietary needs (vegetarian, vegan etc).
