Coco Huts Guest House

“El mejor Homestay de los 4 que estuvimos en Raja Ampat”

The best Homestay among the four we stayed at in Raja Ampat. It’s more of a place than a family, which we didn’t like, but it was perfect. The whole area is well maintained, the sand is brushed daily, and they offer a snack at 17:00. A 10‑minute walk across the island takes you to an amazing crystal‑clear beach. Our guide Vence helped with everything—excursions, transfers, a cork box (used as a fridge), and buying ice at the island’s village. He also got us beers from a local guy (very expensive, 100k each). It’s important to know that there are no rats roaming the rooms, which is crucial for rest. Mobile data is very limited, just enough for WhatsApp, Google Maps, but impossible to post videos on WhatsApp or Instagram (nothing bad happens, but good to know). Across the walk on the other side of the island, the internet is a bit better.

A truly beautiful accommodation with a dream‑like location! The bed is large enough for two people and there’s a fan in the room. We always had mobile reception. Right in front of the bungalow were baby sharks and rays. What we especially liked was the very good food, lovingly cooked by the mamas, freshly baked daily—big thanks! The locals were also very friendly and always helpful; we felt very comfortable. The beach was cleaned daily. The toilet and shower were also very good and always tidy. Vance took care of us every day, he speaks good English, which made many things easier for us. He organized the excursions well, and the transport worked smoothly. The tours were always nice; we were shown a lot! We would definitely come back anytime ❤️

“Un soggiorno relax con barriera corallina stupenda”

The view and coral reef were stunning, and the food—rice, fish, eggs, or vegetables—was just like any other homestay. Breakfast was solid and the 16/17 snack was excellent. The staff were helpful and friendly, and the excursions were nice, especially when one guide joined us for snorkeling. The bungalow felt very minimal, typical of Raja Ampat homestays, so I’d suggest adding at least a piece of furniture to hold clothes; there was only a tiny table. The shared bathroom could use some improvement.

“Picked me up, but had given my room to somebody else my reservation”

The location looks great, but I couldn’t really evaluate anything else. They brought me aboard the longboat, so it was obvious I was arriving, yet they had already assigned my room to someone else. Their only options were a very small room right next to the communal dining area—no view and a tiny window—or a building site on the other side of the island, a five‑minute walk through the forest with no other travelers around. Luckily I managed to find another homestay.

Thanks, Coco huts, Rio, Frenchy, and the rest of the family for being so welcoming and accommodating. The local music in the evenings was a joy to listen to and join in, and Mama, we love your laughter 😆 Fresh fish every day—delicious. Thanks to everyone. Beth and Joel
