Saidowai Guest House

The people of Sewa Bay on Normanby Island invite you to come and stay at the Saidowai Guest House - a truly locally owned, locally operated, 100% sustainable eco-tourism operation.

The management team at Saidowai is committed to helping local communities by providing employment, better education and health facilities, and at the same time protecting the local environment and preserving it for future generations.

Come and experience village life amongst the undisturbed tropical rainforest, filled with unique birds, reptiles and mammals, surrounded by the most breathtaking and bio-diverse coral reefs in the world. The seven tiny islands and crystal clear waters found in and around the bay provide the ideal location for safe diving and snorkelling.

Come and meet the friendly people who live here and experience the loving, relaxed culture that Milne Bay province is known for.

Getting there
Pick up is available from Masurina Business Centre bus stop in Alotou daily at 10.00am and 4.00pm. From here it is a short trip along the coast to East Cape Village and marketplace, the most eastern tip of Papua New Guinea. From East Cape, it is a short 45 minute ride by boat to Sewa Bay.

Accommodation
Saidowai Guest House provides double and single rooms to suit your travel needs as well as a rest house located near the Goldie's Bird of Paradise viewing area.

All meals are provided by staff at the guest house if needed. The meals consist of a range of traditional Melanesian dishes, prepared from fresh produce grown in local gardens and purchased from local markets.
