Stay, explore and more
Built of palm, stone, and silence
In this land still untouched by noise, in the sacred coastal village of Ohoidertawun, the land still whispers.
Here, four artist houses rise from sand and silence — built with driftwood, stone, and woven bamboo, bathed in the delicate rhythms of light, shadow, and perspective. — between sky and forest, sea and memory.
An elegant refuge, shaped by local hands and the spirit of the land.
Here, every material speaks the truth. Every silence breathes peace.Here, we shed the superfluous. We return to what truly matters.
The sea unfolds in every shade of turquoise, from crystal-clear shallows to deep lagoon blues. Shutters open wide to frame living horizons.
Sunlight moves across walls like breath. Time bends. Inside: coconut wood floors, handwoven textures, and a volcanic stone sink, carved from the earth. Every space tells a story — of craft, of care, of quiet.
Altars rest in corners. Ancestral fabrics soften the light.
Nothing is forced. Everything flows.
Outside, a lush garden meets the sea:
An ancestral palm leaf bar, handmade with island wisdom.
A saltwater pool shimmers under the trees.
A massage pavilion hidden in greenery.
Paddle boards, ping-pong, beach volley… or just a book and a breeze.
Manoa is a place to return — to simplicity, to beauty, to what matters.
Not curated. Not styled.
Just raw. True. Sacred.
Authentic Maluku— Intimate. Raw. Almost sacred
Manoa Camp – Warbal Island
Across the channel, on the untouched island of Warbal, there are no buildings — only presence. The tide pulls back. A path of white sand appears, leading you across the sea toward the glowing horizon:
the legendary sandbank of Ngurtafur.
At dawn, walk barefoot in silence. At noon, float above coral gardens where no diver has ever passed. Reef fish shimmer in light. The sea holds you. You’ll camp where stars are loud, where morning arrives with birdsong and barefoot firelight.
No walls, no Wi-Fi — only wonder.
Go Deeper, Go Wilder
Through islands no one speaks of — and beauty no photo can hold.
We take you beyond maps, beyond schedules — Across Kei Kecil, Kei Besar, Tayando, Kur, Tam, Ur, and Tanimbar Kei.
We create wild island camps just for you.
Private. Elemental. Unforgettable.
This is not a destination.
It’s a return.
Welcome to the last paradise.
Beyond Travel — A Deeper Return
After crossing the sea,
after walking barefoot along sandbanks that vanish with the tide,
after sharing silence with fishermen, elders, and stars…
something shifts.
You no longer feel like a visitor.
You begin to remember.
Here in the eastern islands of Indonesia,
in the sacred lands of Kei,
you may discover not just landscapes —
but another way of being human.
One that listens more than it speaks.
One that takes only what it needs.
One that knows the Earth is not a resource, but a relative.
And perhaps, as you return to yourself,
you’ll feel that something must be done —
not out of urgency or guilt,
but out of love.
Let’s not stop at wonder.
Let’s transform it into care.
Let’s gather ideas.
Let’s share stories, practices, and tools.
Let’s build bridges between ancestral knowledge and contemporary life,
between local voices and global questions.
Let’s make space for the wisdom of the land and the sea —
not as something of the past,
but as a foundation for what comes next.
Together, we can reweave the threads between nature and culture,
between humans and the Earth,
starting here —
in the islands of Kei,
and reaching far beyond.
