Katembe is a paradise. All is absolutly fantastic: the place, the bungalow, the food and the staff . It was few perfect days and everybody was very sad when it was time to go. The staff is very kindly, you feel like in a family and they are all very attentive. The food is amazing! All the excursions are personnalised and great. You have to go to Katembe once in your life!

The paradise on earth!

Amazing experience at this end-of -the world resort ! We got to feel like Robison Crusoe for 5 days! 

We had great luck and were alone for 3 days! 
All the staff is so welcoming and caring . The food was great  and the whole hotel is so charming ! 
There are many activities ( diving, snorkelling, canoeing around the island ) 

Thank you especially to Ridwan, Suria, Benny, the Chef and all the diving team !

Amazing experience !!!

Amazing private island ,very friendly staff who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The resort very relaxing and pleasure. the food is delicious . Feels like paradise. Overall my experience was outstanding. I would highly recommended.

Amazing Place to visit. I would highly recommended, feels like paradise

Heaven on earth! AMAZING place for our honeymoon. 

Super cute bungalow, all super clean, great service, super nice beaches with baby sharks and we didn’t expect that staying in Katembe would mean being on a gastronomic trip. The food was delicious every day! And the attention to details of the team is the best. 

We 100% recommend coming at least one week there to relax and do some excursions. We did Piangiemo with Melissa’s Garden dive, Kalibiru, Friwen with Mike’s Point dive and Sawandarek. We recommend them all! :) Thanks for hosting us in one of the best weeks of our lifes!

One week in PARADISE

Can’t put in words how wonderful was my experience in katembe private island. Still can not believe how those guys are able to do such a great experience in that place. Everything was just better than I expected. The delicious courses every single meal, the cozy and comfortable acomodation were just amazing. Can’t avoid to say also about the kindness and care of the every single staff that working there. 

The diving guys also where just perfect! Thank you so much! I really want to come back very soon! Terima kasih!

Come as a guest, stay as a friend, leave as a family

I cannot even begin to describe how incredible our stay was. My partner and I fell in love with the island, the staff and the food and we were immesurably sad to leave. We spent most of our time relaxing, snorkelling and sunbathing - just literally by stepping down the ladder into the water straight from our room. The food was plentiful and so very delicious, mostly Indonesian cuisine but also adding in a few dishes from South Korea or Malaysia (and the odd pasta dish). The excursions were just something else - the best snorkelling and scuba diving I have ever done, and I have been around the world. Taking part in the coral reforestation is something I was very honoured to be able to do, and would definitely recommend. 

Thank you so much to all the staff and we really can't wait to be planning our next trip to see you!

Our best holiday yet

Where to even begin with describing this place. I’ve rarely given 5* before but this incredible island deserves every bit of praise that you can see in these reviews.

My other half and I stayed here for 14 nights in October and wished that it could have been 14 weeks! The rooms are beautifully crafted from local materials, spacious, and exactly like what you see in the photos. The island is idyllic, with fish, crabs, tiny sharks (non dangerous and well away from swimming areas) little mantas and all manner of wildlife literally around you as you walk from your house to the restaurant. If you want somewhere quiet and close to nature you won’t find anywhere better than here.

There are a plethora of activities to do both on the island (cooking classes, trek through the jungle, coral restoration projects) and off the island - with ample incredible opportunities for both snorkelers and divers alike or even those who don’t like swimming with excursions to the blue lagoon and Piaynemo available at reasonable prices.

The best part about this place, however, is the people that work there. I have never come across a more kind, thoughtful and attentive group than those at Doberai. From the owner, Rika, who would regularly come along to the restaurant to see how we all were, to Sandra who could teach a masterclass in organisational ability and guest management, to Beni, Faidal and Aidal who were always there with a smile (and an offer of a cocktail!) and genuinely became friends by the end of our stay there. It was such a pleasure to meet all of you.

This review could go on and on, but, take our word for it: don’t hesitate to book this place, you absolutely won’t be disappointed.


You must go here

Everything about this place is incredible. The staff were amazing, the food was great and the whole location is amazing.
They also organize great tours to spend some time exploring the nearby islands and to go to the best snorkeling/diving sites.

Amazing place

The true paradise island experience! The island is amazing with great beaches, snorkeling from your own bungalow, incredible diving sites nearby and to top it all, amazing food all day long.

The bungalows are very cute and clean with comfy beds, and the meals are enjoyed together so it feels like one big family. All staff are super friendly and they will help you with anything. Ask anything from Sandra and she will make it happen ;) 

Transportation from and back to the airport makes it easy to arrive, since there is no hassle with the taxis or ferries. 

I can highly recommend this place for a relaxing holiday, especially for scuba divers but also for others. Hope to be back soon!

The perfect paradise island in Raja Ampat

My wife and I had a 5 night stay at Doberai and we were wishing it was longer. The island itself is just stunning with clear waters, amazing jungles and animal life right outside of your bungalow door. Sandra and her team were very friendly, attentive and made sure we had a great time going out of their way to make sure we had what we needed. We had some amazing excursions to Peyanemo and Kalibiru, do not forget your camera on those. Doberai also is ecologically focused utilizing electricity and other resources during specific times of day and decorating the bungalows with all things found from the island itself.  One last thing that we can not speak enough of was the food. We are both vegan and the kitchen staff did a great Job accommodating our dietary requests with tasty alternatives for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Highly recommend coming here!
