Sorido Bay Resort was a superb place to stay, the staff were very friendly and attentive and the food was amazing. Buffet-style meals with freshly made local and western-style meals to choose from. The rooms were right on the beach in a beautiful location with a porch and hammock where you could sit outside and have a beer and watch the monitor lizards walk by and see the sunset. Just beautiful. The rooms have a nice AC and they were very spacious and had comfy beds. The staff would give you fresh towels and clean your room twice a day.

The dive operation was very professional, the divemasters really knew the reefs and where to take you depending on the conditions. They only put you with one or two other people so you weren't feeling cramped on your dive boat which made it even more pleasant. The resort also offered other activities other than scuba diving, like going to look for the bird of paradise or hiking up to a lookout for an amazing view. The house reef is also very nice and you can see blacktip reef sharks and giant trevally swimming right underneath the pier! The diving itself was, of course, amazing, being that it is Raja Ampat and I saw lots of marine life like mantas, tuna, a dugong, barracuda, cuttlefish and I even swam with a pilot whale! One of the best things about this resort is that it is literally less than 10 minutes from like all the top Raja dive sites, do yourself a favor and stay at Sorido Bay Resort!
