Lodges in Kri

We spent 6 nights with Herman and his family at Daroyen village, and loved every moment of it. The location is stunning, bungalows over the water are basic but incredible, food delicious, and his family are lovely although very quiet and keep to themselves a lot. Herman was always making sure we were enjoying our time and was helpful meeting us in Waisai, and helping to buy the boat ticket back to Sorong. Etlin was amazing too, meeting us in Sorong at both ends of our trip and making sure we got to our hotel. We did 4 dives with Herman and Peter (dive guide) and felt safe with Peter as our guide. The dive equipment was a bit old and we were hesitant at first, but being comfortable in the water and with diving, we were so glad we went because the diving is insanely good. If you’re new to diving or not confident in assessing equipment/risks, I would suggest diving elsewhere. Amazing snorkelling right out in front on the drop off, and plenty of fish life around the nearby jetty’s.

We are divers and chose Aldejus mainly due to its proximity to Tarzan Diving. The transfers were well organized and the communication with the hosts was good, although mainly through Whatsapp, due to the fact that the family speaks little English, but we didn't mind. We really loved the food and appreciated that they were able to cater to vegetarians. Lunch packages were prepared for the days on which we went diving. Western bathroom was also highly appreciated. The family was very friendly and made us feel welcome.

Excellent location in a great island, in the core of Raja Ampat Islands Staff guides you very well, since you arrive Sorong Airport, through ferry in Waisai till arrving the lodge Different activities available: diving (main one), kayaking and visiting other islands. I really wanted to visit the Wayag - usually a min 3 people trip. I was solo, but they arranged a small boat for me Food is very good. Staff is very friendly and resourceful to help you in anything you need

The owners and staff are friendly, island life is great every bungalow has sea view, food is everyday different and tasty.
