Details
Myosmkun Homestay occupies a quiet beachside location at the western end of Waigeo’s Saporkren village.
Two private bungalows are available.
The bungalows sleep two on mattresses on the floor. Bedding provided includes sheets, blanket, pillows, bolsters and mosquito nets. Towels are also supplied, and all rooms are fitted with light switches and power outlets.
Both bungalows have covered verandahs equipped with a table, chairs, and ocean views.
Meals are served in Myosmkun’s beach dining room. The dining room has panoramic beach and sea views, and free drinking water, tea and coffee are always available to guests there.
A two-room bathroom building is shared by all guests. One room contains a western style toilet and dip mandi / tub bathing. The other has a raised squat toilet and dip mandi bathing.
Myosmkun Homestay receives a decent 4G phone signal, and data connections are usually supported.
Electricity is from Saporkren’s village supply, and is normally always available.
Basic supplies can be purchased in Saporkren village. The road to Waisai is accessed by a short path, and taxis (or a trip on the local public bus) can be arranged if you want to go into Waisai.
Like everywhere else in Raja Ampat, there’s no safe way to dispose of inorganic waste at Myosmkun Homestay: To avoid the possibility of further rubbishing paradise, please take all inorganic waste like plastic and batteries away with you when you leave.
Only basic English is spoken at Myosmkun Homestay. Bring a phrasebook or translation app to help ease communication.
Transport / Getting there
Activities
Be sure to bring snorkelling gear, because there’s good snorkelling straight off the beach at Myosmkun.
Myosmkun Homestay can arrange snorkelling, birdwatching and sightseeing tours, and sharing in village life is easy.
A raised boardwalk around a rocky bluff east of Saporkren offers great ocean and beach views. Watch for the pods of dolphins that regularly visit this stretch of coast.
There are several large freshwater springs that can be enjoyed at low tide, and long walks are possible by following the path from the village and then the road to Waisai. Traffic on the road is very light and almost all vehicles are motorbikes except on weekends when Waisai locals visit the beachside picnic spots along the coast. A couple of kilometres along the road, a side road makes unguided deep jungle exploration possible.
