Nous avons adoré le côté rustique et l’isolement du homestay . Nous étions juste avec misael et sa famille . Ils nous ont acceuilli chez eux et nous ont fait sentir comme chez nous . La cuisine est supe bonne . Misael est daté au maximum de nous pêcher tous les jours un poisson frais ! Le prix des excursions ne sont pas excessif . L’emplacement a 15 minutes de rufas et Pyainemo est parfait !

Very close to Piaynemo and Rufas and Melissa's garden, and right in front, you have a rich biodiversity. The host made me feel welcome and comfy 😊

The facilities were very basic compared to other homestays. There was a storm around these days, and waves made it noisy to sleep.

We stayed 3 nights at Keruwo Homestay. The homestay is located at the southern end of Pyanemo on the island of Keruwo close to Melissa’s Garden and Pam Wall. The view from your veranda looks directly onto Pyanemo and Rufus Island. Keruwo Island has some taller mountains, sheer limestone cliffs and dense jungle, whilst there are some small stretches of beach, you cannot walk around this island. There is a narrow undeveloped jungle trail where the jetty is that takes you up to a viewpoint. The snorkelling at front of the homestay is OK with plenty of fish and coral, however there are many sections of coral that have been destroyed by storms or bleaching. At low tide you can do a walk from the homestay to some coral/sandy beaches on the Pam Island side of the island, take your water shoes. We stayed in the newer overwater bungalow that was recently finished, so there were a few things that still needed to be done. This bungalow is across the beach from the other 3 bungalows and is quite private. The bungalows are all small and very basic. The food was plentiful with good variety of fruits. Mishael was a very committed host and did everything possible to ensure everyone had a good stay at his homestay. There is no Telkomsel signal at Keruwo Homestay, sometimes if you go out on the boat with Mishael you might get one bar of signal from the tower on Pam Island in the middle of the ocean. He offers a large variety of tours which are all posted on the whiteboard in the meals area with his prices. We did the Pam Wall and Napolean Wall snorkelling trips with Mishael which I would highly recommend. Snorkel right up the wall where the waves break and you will be rewarded with the most exotic coloured corals you will ever see. I was amazed. Plenty of small and large fish to see as well. The current is really strong between Keruwo Island and Pam Wall, so take care here.

Die Nähe zur Fam Wall ist super. Man kann durch den Kanal in 10 Minuten selbst rüber schwimmen. Nachmittags wird es aber wegen der vielen Boote unübersichtlich und man sollte eine Boje dabei haben, wenn man zurück schwimmt. Wegen sehr schlechtem Wetter ist manchmal abends der Strom ausgefallen. Misai vom Keruwo Homestay und seine Familie haben es aber schnell wieder richten können. Misai hat uns toll zum nächsten Homestay auf Fam Island mit dem longboat gebracht.

Wir hatten die älteste Hütte (erste Hütte vom Strand), wo es bei einer Sturmfront leider einwenig Spray waagerecht in die Hütte getragen hat.
