Great location for underwater life.
Dirty toilets. I understand they are simple. But they were not cleaned. Very poor breakfasts. Eating a piece of cake with coffee and then diving... after a small sweet breakfast, I was starving. And there you can't buy anything.

early check-in Lunch on the first day Baby sharks under the huts Nothing was stolen
no transfer, not picked up no briefing, no information sheet No contact person on site The house reef is not nice. It mainly consists of heavily damaged staghorn corals poor mobile phone reception Rats ate my medicine and soap Breakfast toast untoasted without jam Food is mostly cold Staff does not inform when food is on the table Rats ate medicine and soap Communal WC and shower on land No anal shower No locks No fan Hammock too small Pillow too small The bedsheet is too small too small beds Many mosquitoes Shack Power is turned off at 5:00 Knives missing in general usual disadvantages (was the same in all 3 homestays I visited): The food was not good. They saved on the ingredients. No locks No insider tips on snorkeling spots, best time, bird spots no customer orientation Greedy No safety standards for electrical installation and construction No hygiene standards Power generation by diesel generators, so not sustainable No sustainable wastewater treatment No trained staff no room cleaning Staff is not helpful No staff control because the owner is not present

We stayed at Firdas Homestay for 7 nights and it was an absolutely incredible place 😍 The bungalows are very atmospheric and built directly over the water, so it almost feels like you are sleeping in the ocean. You can see many fish and even reef sharks swimming nearby. The food deserves special attention. At this homestay the meals are very diverse and delicious, prepared by a lovely local woman. There is always hot water, tea, coffee, and cookies available, which makes the stay even more comfortable. You can also easily organize excursions here for a very reasonable price, and we definitely recommend doing that because the reef around the island is simply unbelievable. The staff are very kind and welcoming. We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again. If you walk a little along the beach, you will find a beautiful reef with plenty of fish, rays, reef sharks and turtles 🐢🐠
