The island runs on people you don't know yet.
Almost nothing here is bookable online — it runs on who you know. Pay one flat fee and borrow our network from day one: arrival, a base to look from, viewings, paperwork and the introductions that normally take a year.
Everything between landing and belonging here
Airport transfers
Pickup from Ba’a airport or Pantai Baru ferry terminal straight to your accommodation in Nemberala. We meet you at arrivals.
Somewhere to stay while you look
From $20 homestays to beachfront villas, and the monthly rentals that never appear online. We know every room on the island — including which ones are worth taking for a season while you decide where to settle.
