WELCOME TO KATEMBE PRIVATE ISLAND

We welcome you to stay and explore the private island of Katembe in Raja Ampat.

Katembe Private Island offers a real, authentic private island accommodation with a touch of luxury and elegance.

Katembe Private Island is an Indonesian-owned private island located in the heart of Raja Ampat.

The Kabui Bay location is just a 30-minute speedboat ride from Waisai, the capital of Raja Ampat.

The private island in Raja Ampat is one of Indonesia’s best-kept secrets and still very untouched.

One of the main tourist attractions in Raja Ampat is the spectacular underwater world. Raja Ampat is part of the species-rich Coral Triangle.

Raja Ampat is called the “Last Paradise” and is unique in the world with its pristine, clear lagoons, hidden bays and mushroom island landscapes

Stay in a beautiful bungalow over the water.

The seven overwater bungalows are built with materials from nature and inspired by traditional Indonesian and Papuan styles.

Each room has a bedroom, private bathroom, mirror, beach towels, drinking water, soaps, sun loungers and terrace with sea access.

The full-board packages include three daily meals, snack time, water refills, coffee and tea time.

The water in the showers is partly salty, partly fresh. Since the resort is located on a remote island, there is not always electricity for 24 hours.

The latest Deluxe Eco Bungalows are suitable for couples or friends traveling together.

There are rooms with double beds, separate beds and bungalows for families.
