View our overwater bungalows in Raja Ampat! They combine the old world charm of Papua New Guinea with the simplicity of modern design elements. We created them using locally sourced, natural materials that we gathered from nearby towns. For instance, Daun Nipa is used to manufacture the roofing, and Daun Bobo is utilized to construct the walls. Iron wood is used for the floors, door and window frames, and other structural elements. These are the materials that are commonly used in construction by Papuans.

Initially, we built our 15 Papua Explorers overwater bungalows as a cooperative initiative. As a result, we quickly commissioned it for other houses in our area. As a result, a larger portion of the community benefited from the revenue. Each section appointed one trade professional and two village apprentices. The model had a high success rate. Because of this, a significant portion of our senior workers were formerly fisherman but are currently paid far more for employment in a range of sustainable professions and crafts.

Every one of our overwater bungalows in Raja Ampat is situated on the water. They have a comfortable sitting space, an en suite bathroom with a shower, hot water, a ceiling fan, a mosquito net, and a working desk. The spacious veranda with direct access to the beach allows guests to relax and take in the calm and quiet of the sun and waves. Sunloungers and a hammock welcome you to stay and take in the beautiful sunsets of Raja Ampat. In addition, there is a stairway that goes directly into the ocean, making it simple to cool off.

There are loads of towels available as well as environmentally friendly soap, shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner that are all natural.

There’s also drinking water, a tea and coffee maker, and a room safe. We also offer continuous availability of 220 V power that is compatible with European plugs.
