Sitting on the edge of mountainous Kri Island the dive resort is shaded by palm trees that run along a long fine white sand beach.

Wild birds awaken our guests each morning at sunrise so they will be on time for breakfast and the morning dive. We see Eclectis Parrots, Sulphur Crested Cockatoos, Hornbills, Great Billed Parrots, Brush Turkeys, Lorikeets, Kingfishers and others during the day.

A jetty built over the large shallow lagoon in front of the eco-resort also leads to five of the guest houses. As a bonus, since accommodations are over the water, we often see sharks, rays and schools of fish in our "garden".

The compressor, storage, toilets, baths and staff quarters are located on the island, but in distance to the resort. Our dining and kitchen house is alongside the beach over the water! You can almost cool your toes while having dinner at high tide.

Inland on the beach are six very clean & roomy Indonesian style bathrooms, (called MANDIS) for our guests to share.

Kri' well is located behind the resort's buildings and it contains a more than adequate supply of water for all needs as showers, toilets, camera rinsing etc. Papua Diving has just also added an OSMOSIS water filtering system to supply 10,000 L of fresh water a day to both resorts and will be running with-in the next weeks.

Water on Kri was hauled from the well by bucket and carried by hand, but now Kri has a pump and running water to the kitchen, western style toilets and for filling the bath containers. Drinking water is obtained from a neighboring island.

Meals and drinks are served in our Restaurant, a large over-water dining area with long tables, sheltered by a traditional palm thatched roof, which always offers a nice, fresh breeze. In the kitchen, coffee, tea and flavored drinks are always available for our guests.

The kitchen is always busy with staff preparing meals. All meals are being cooked in woks, stew pots or else. There are no electrical appliances, everything is made my hand. In back of the kitchen, the staff slice fresh vegetables and fruits in the open air under the shade of the trees. Each meal is prepared fresh. Vegetables, fruits and fish are bought from local villagers, coming to our beach with there boats. Ice boxes, supplied weekly from Sorong, contain fresh meats and can chill a beer when required.

Kri Eco Resort currently has 6 over-water guest bungalows. Most of the buildings contain two rooms and at least one sitting area. Rooms are divided by partitions with doors and window coverings that can be closed for privacy. Each room has a mattress, pillow and mosquito net for bedding. Furnishings are hand-made benches or lounge chairs and tables where guests can relax, work on camera gear, talk and read.

One small over-water bungalow, located just a bit down the beach for a bit more privacy, contains only one room.

Kri Eco Resort is a simple, informal, but very comfortable dive resort in very pristine nature. Many of our guests like it for its peaceful location, natural surroundings and tropical island beauty.
