The airport pick-up service is really convenient, I will recommend everyone to book this service in advance. It just makes the trip so much easier.
The resort provides 3 meals a day, very delicious Indonesian foods and very big portion too. I like this service very much since I have no interest in exploring the town. I was there just for diving.
Diving sites are amazing, I think the visibility could be better in Jun, Jul, and Aug.

A gem of a hotel. Comfortable rooms. Great food. Foo was very friendly and helpful. We couldn’t have asked for more. My wife had a dive with Yorry who was very professional. The diving was spectacular. I snorkelled and it was the best snorkelling I’ve had in Indonesia. So many turtles. We’re planning our return.

Fantastic 5-night stay with Dion and his family, in almost-beachfront property within main Bunaken village. The rooms are spacious, air-conditioned, with private bathroom and a small sitting area with chair(s) and clothes drying rack, just outside my room, all within access to wifi internet. The beach, which is 25m away, is kept quite clean and a great place to unwind after the dives or before dinner. Three delicious meals are served at set times each day, the menu including rice/noodle, vegetables, and a protein meat/fish dish ... every day slightly different. Great setup to meet the other guests and get to know Dion and his family. I organized 8 dives with Dion's affiliated Blue Shark Diving shop, and each outing was very special. And lastly, Dion himself was very helpful in organizing the next leg of my journey ... he helped book reliable, clean private cars, and tours for my next trajectory to the Togean Islands. In summary, a very memorable stay. Thank you!

Excellent food, lots of fruit, good variety, different dishes every meal. Fish was very fresh and often accompanied by a photo of the actual fish. Stephen and Missi made us feel like part of the family. Stephen arranged for car and boat transportation from the airport and later to Tangkoko. Also for a snorkeling boat. Very attentive and interested in our welfare.

They upgraded us to a sea view bungalow which was spacious and comfortable. The adjoining bathroom was open to the sky for the shower (the rest had a roof 🙂)
It’s a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of Indonesia-very quiet at this time of year (end of February)
The staff were all very friendly and helpful

Island of Bunaken is very accessible on a short boat ride from Manado harbor. The island itself is very quiet, almost boring if you come looking for lively nightlife or bars & restaurants. The main attraction are the coral reefs, still relatively pristine with its marine life ecosystem ... let's hope that it can continue to stay that way.

The island is very beautiful, a place from which to go diving and snorkling. There is everything for everyone. Unfortunately, the plastic is at home in a national park! Tourist activity has started to destroy the coral reef in some places. In a few years Bunaken park will be only in name. It is a recommended place for those who practice diving, less a place to relax.

Dive operation Celebes Divers made me feel very welcome and couldn't do enough to assist my diving. At 78 years old and with a scuba career of nearly 50 years, Dive leader Ali and the other dive team members plus the boat crew did all they could to assist me in exiting the water, given my knee problems, by me doffing my equipment in the water, crew members lifting it up onto the deck, so I could climb aboard unencumbered.
Dived an interesting Japanese freighter wreck sunk by the Americans in World War 2 and several reefs chock a block with fish & corals. Well done Celebes Divers staff!

Airport transfers must be arranged through the resort.
Airport transfers must be arranged through the resort. Don't even attempt to do this yourself. You have to love swimming, snorkelling and or diving to make the most of your stay. The resort is in the bunaken national park - so the sites are pretty amazing. There is a spa to enjoy after the relaxing dives. Food is great so no need to drag snack along. Not mush to buy - so make sure you have the essentials! Enjoy a fab experience!

Loved Bunaken, stayed one week on either side of the island in full board resorts which was good because both sides are so different. Many good dive boats/teams and great snorkeling from the beach or go out with a dive boat. The small town deserves some time spent there and next time I'd stay in town for a few days as well.

If you are looking at Bunaken as a holiday destination you...
If you are looking at Bunaken as a holiday destination you are probably already aware of what an amazing place it is for diving or snorkelling, lots of healthy coral and sea life including turtles, rays, small sharks and a never ending variety of fish.
It's quite a quiet location which is perfect if you are looking for peace. Bunaken is a very small island so there isn't a town where you can go partying or anything. you are likely to spend the majority of your time in the resort although you can go and explore a little if you wish.
Fantastic value for money and the food was wonderful. Beautiful views from the room and really friendly people. We had a very relaxing time. Be warned there is no hot water in shower (was not an issue for us as there is no winter in Bunaken), no WiFi in room (WiFi in the common area/dining hall was fast and reliable) and no air con (ceiling fan available, but otherwise no solution there, pray for good weather). Bring insect repellent!
An amazing stay, this is heaven on earth in Bunaken! The resort staff was superbly accommodating, making sure everything was done superbly and all our wishes were taken care of. Everyone is superbly kind, the resort is gorgeous, the diving is one of the best I have experienced... I am not doing this review justice in this short summary, because it really was so amazingly unreal. Don't think twice, just book and enjoy!
pros: good food, i'm vegan and i could ask the kitchen to make the fried rice vegan, just use veggies instead of egg/meat. it's also near the pier where you can snorkel and see turtles, fishes and beautiful corals! the hotel is also run by a lovely family and near the 4sisters diver, where you can arrange your diving needs, including a certification course. AC and hot water work fine
We booked for 6 nights and extended our stay for 9 nights as it was so good we just couldn't leave. Nona cooks the most delicious meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The location is fantastic, right on the beach, see the sunrise but get the afternoon shade. They can organise all your diving or snorkeling trips, rent motorbike to see more of the island etc.
Very nice and helpful staff, good location right on the beach and in the centre of the village, yet still calm.
The accomodation is part of the dive centre. This dive centre works very well and professionally. They adhere well to safety standards and the guides are kind and enthusiastic.
Full board food is provided, it's simple and honest food, yet tasty.
The staff are extremely accommodating and helpful. They try very hard to give you a top knotch experience. The dive masters, cooks, and reception check in with you multiple times a day to ensure you have everything you need. The dive spots were great and the care was fabulous. Their resort is tucked away on quiet Bunaken island.
We really loved this guesthouse. It is the best value for money in the island by far. Well located near Blue Shark, cheapest diving center, the rooms are comfortable, best for we are in Indonesia and great quantity, and the host are just amazing. We strongly recommend this guesthouse. 🙏 thanks for everything
The location of the resort along the coastline, there are beautiful cabins and pools, there are three lovely dogs, there are friendly staff, there are versatile and warm diving instructors, there is a relaxed and friendly atmosphere,the delicious food~~~
Great budget resort, lovely private bungalow, diving was excellent, well organised and safe. Hire gear was great quality. Highly recommend 2 dives and a massage per day option. The food was okay. Very clean, staff extremely helpful.
Nice place to stay in Bunaken, on the top of a long stair leading to the beach.
Thé snorkeling from the beach is amazing when we get to the drop.
Beautiful coral and many fishes and turtles.
Good food.
The resort is great, the bungalows are beautiful, the food is excellent and the staff really awesome !
Moreover, as the hotel was not full, we have been upgraded - thanks a lot for that !!
Staying with Novita was wonderful! She made the island immediately feel like home. She was welcoming and accommodating, and helped me with everything I needed.
Loved staying here and meeting Novita and her family! Food was delicious, everyone was so nice! Bunaken in general was such a great island loved our time here!
Sarah and her team are exceptional, kind, and genuine. The food tastes delicious and fresh. Snorkeling tour was beautiful. The view is the best on the island.
