Raja Ampat is amazing no matter how you get there, but my first experience was divine when I arrived at Papua Paradise. They take care of you the whole way. When I landed in Sorong they took me to a hotel where I could shower, nap and eat that day, and later took me to the wharves to get on a boat to make the crossing to the resort. From here it's boutique diving and amazing service. My room on stilts over the water was serene. All the construction is authentic and you feel like you are in another world. There is no aircon and in the day it doesn't matter, but at night they close off the room from the deck and prepare it with malaria netting and mosquito repellant. There is a fan but it can be a bit hot. Hey, it's Eco. The food was amazing, just icing on the cake. The diving was well organized and the divemasters were top rate at finding you whatever you have a hankering for. Every service is top-notch and when they sing to you as you leave on the boat, it brought tears to my eyes.
