Details

Seagrass Homestay lies at the edge of Pam village, on Pulau Pambemuk’s eastern shore.

Two private over-water bungalows are offered.

The  bungalows sleep two on raised beds. Sheets, pillows, blanket and mosquito nets are provided. Bungalow verandahs are equipped with table and chair settings, and have panoramic sunrise ocean views.

Meals are served on the bungalow verandahs. As at all homestays, free drinking water and tea and coffee making supplies are always provided for guests.

Guests share a 2-room bathroom building on land. A shower and bucket bathing is provided in the bathroom. The other room houses a western-style toilet and another shower.

Electricity is from Pam village supply, and is usually available all night.

Seagrass Homestay normally receives a strong phone signal. The 4G signal supports internet connections for those with the appropriate Telkomsel plan.

It’s short walk into the village, where basic supplies are available.

As everywhere else in Raja Ampat, there is no safe waste disposal at Pambemuk: Please do take your trash with you: Any inorganic waste you leave behind will only contribute to the trashing of paradise.

Very little English is spoken at Seagrass Homestay, so bringing a translation app or phrasebook is recommended.

Activities

In common with all homestays, Seagrass Homestay can provide tours and transfers on request.

Tour pricelists are not provided, because cost varies widely, depending on number of participants, destination/s visited and the current price of fuel in Pam village.

Pambemuk is a small and friendly village, easily explored on foot.
