Details
Mioskor Homestay is located on the sheltered northern shore of Mios Kor – a small sand cay in the Pam Islands.
Four private bungalows are set in the shade of beachside trees.
All bungalow bedrooms have real beds, and extra mattresses can be provided if needed. Bedding includes sheets, pillows, bolsters and mosquito nets. Bungalow bedrooms are also equipped with fans and cupboards. Light switches and power outlets for charging devices are provided. All bungalows have covered verandahs with a table and chairs and excellent ocean views.
Meals are served at a beachside dining shelter, and drinking water, and tea and coffee making supplies are provided free of charge.
Guests share a two-room bathroom building which has a western style toilet in one room and dip mandi (bucket) bathing in the other.
Electricity is supplied by generator, and is available from sunset to around midnight.
A variable phone signal is usually available at Mioskor Homestay. (Half bars and an H connection the day we visited.)
Only a little English is spoken at Mioskor Homestay, so a phrasebook or a translation app will prove handy if you don’t speak Bahasa Indonesia.
Pam village is a ten minute boat ride away, and basic supplies can be purchased in shops there.
Please be aware that, as everywhere in Raja Ampat, there is no way to properly dispose of inorganic waste at Mioskor. To avoid contributing to the trashing of paradise, all homestays ask that you take all your inorganic trash away with you when you leave.

Here’s what you need to know about getting the cargo boat to Fam.
Activities
Snorkelling and sightseeing
Beautiful white sand beaches and a rich fringing reef afford great snorkelling opportunities, and Mioskor Homestay can of course organise snorkelling and sightseeing trips to Piaynemo and any other of the Pam Islands you care to visit.
Pam Island is only a ten minute boat ride away and is a great place to spend the day. Two villages, long beaches and walking trails provide plenty of opportunities to explore.
Nearby Pambemuk Island is tiny, but it hosts Pam’s largest village and port. It’s also a great place to spend a day.
When you’re done, relax and soak up the sunset from your bungalow verandah while the breeze whispers through Mios Kor’s native casuarinas.
