Unforgettable family vacation
Reviewed By Satrio WMy wife, my 15-month-old daughter, and I had a great time vacationing at Meridian Adventure Dive Resort. The staff members were helpful prior, during, and after our stay at the resort. Leona and Joane checked in regularly with us using emails, while other staff members often communicated with us via WhatsApp, and they all were able to accommodate our needs. At the resort, their hospitality made our stay memorable. My personal goal was to make myself comfortable again when scuba diving, especially after such a long break from diving. At the same time, I wanted to introduce the beauty of Raja Ampat’s islands and beaches to my wife and my daughter. With the help of Meridian Adventure, we were able to meet those goals. I was impressed by the state-of-the-art scuba diving equipment provided by Meridian. However, it was the assistance of the divemasters/leaders that really made the difference. They were patient in helping me get back into shape while ensuring that I enjoyed the underwater beauty that Raja Ampat has to offer. A couple of the dives were a bit challenging due to the strong current, but I felt safe diving under their watch. They kindly dropped off my family at secluded beaches and at the village to wait there while I did the dives with them. My wife and my daughter had some awesome beach moments, not to mention nice interactions with the locals. A big shout-out to the dive leaders (Duan, Abner, Simson, and Adam) as well as the boat drivers (Adnan, Arnol, and Yohan) for their help! Back in the hotel, Boyke and his colleagues ensured that we had great stays while we were not out and about. The staff members were so nice to my daughter, who played happily with them and the (many) friendly resident cats! They also helped arrange our trips to Kalibiru and to town, including to get PCR tests at the local hospital. The resort itself is not that big, but its size is perfect for my little family to roam around. The common area, with a ping pong table, a billiard table, and a dart board, is a perfect place to hang out. The boardwalk, surrounded by tall mangroves, is also quite impressive. The resort’s location is also very strategic. We only had to walk for about 10 minutes from the port to the hotel when we came in. We’d also like to thank the restaurant staff, especially Yunita and her colleagues, who ensured that we’re well-fed at the resort. We certainly enjoyed the food, both the western and local menus that the resort provided. I asked their help to throw a surprise birthday celebration for my wife, and my request was well executed. Their hospitality is one of the highlights of our stay. All in all, we had an unforgettable family vacation thanks to Meridian Adventure Dive Resort!

Worked well for us PLUS LOCATION IN TOWN!
Reviewed By RCJOWaisai is a nice town. The residents are not jaded by tourists (yet) as they see them with less frequency than other locations in Indonesia. Simply stated, they are wonderful. All the children say hello and approach often to ask your name and where you are from. Being there in the beginning of December allowed us to see the Christmas parade and train that takes children around town. Magical in so many ways as you can't help but smile when a parade such as this has Mickey Mouse and the much beloved Hello Kitty. And the train is totally lit up with lights and smiles. Beautiful. Most everyone that shows up in Waisai heads out to a resort. Many of the remainder head to home stays in nearby islands or away from town. These can be nice but we don't do well with being so contained. We did a live aboard here in Raja Ampat and then dove with Olin Dive Center in town for another week. The hotel is very situated in town as it is a short walk to the beach, is very close to the wonderful daily market, close to grocery stores and near to the dive shop. We came to stay for 4 days but stayed the week. Rooms are clean and air-conditioned. They are large, have television and provide a breakfast (included in price). Out back there are clothes lines for use. Not much English is spoken but translation apps made life easy. Staff are very nice! At a moments notice the staff set us up with the town's tourist representative (Husna) to help us out with a great deal including getting to Wayag and also seeing the Red, as well as Wilson's, bird of paradise. The hotel was less expensive than the hostel where another diver stayed. We are unsure if we will return for a third visit to Raja but if we do, we will definitely stay at this hotel again as the the place is nice and the town it is in is wonderful.

Reviewed By Aditya NI stayed here for just a night here during my business trip to West Papua. I took the standard room. The room is very big, but the equipment are a bit old. The air con was not that good because I still felt a bit hot and sweaty.

Niet meer wat het hoort te zijn
Reviewed By J3350LEadrianaHelaas een hele grote teleurstelling. Niet meer wat het hoorde te zijn. Alles van de foto’s op de site is aanwezig maar word geen gebruik meer van gemaakt. Allemaal locals ingetrokken. We hebben hier 1 nacht geslapen en zijn de volgende de dag gauw vertrokken! Dit terwijl we voor een week hadden geboekt. Geen Engels sprekenden mensen aanwezig. Geen activiteiten te doen. Erg vies.
