The privately owned island of Batbitim is surrounded by 400 kilometers of sea that is an enforced no-take zone. The entire resort is made from island driftwood. There are eight aboveground suites that stand on stilts above the tranquil waters.
Getting to Batbitim is also somewhat of an adventure. The trip from the airport in Sorong involves a ride on a speedboat. The resort’s owners recommend a specific travel itinerary to ensure a smooth arrival.
Notable: Many of Raja Ampat's finest dive sites, such as the Manta Cleaning Station, Boo, Fiabacet, Gorgonian Passage, and Yillet are within the no-take zone around Batbitim. See all Luxury Hotels in Asia
