The family of the homestay are lovely and treat you like part of the family straight away. The food was excellent and plentiful. Not only did they cater to vegetarian and vegan diets easily, the food was delicious and a highlight of our stay. For the room, it was small but adequate with a queen size bed with a comfortable mattress. The bathroom was nice with a good pressure cool shower and flushing toilet. Aircon worked great.and was a nice treat. Ken's homestay was the place to be in the evening with live music being played by various talents from across the village. It's a fun and friendly vibe. Some nights are more lively than others which was a nice mix for us. If you are a light sleeper or go to bed early bring earplugs and it is fine. The mornings are nice and quiet and you can wake up to the sound of the waves. You can't even hear the church or the mosque! We went on two snorkelling tours and both were great ways to see other amazing snorkelling spots and we even visited the village on Manado Tua. Good value too. We extended our stay by two nights and wished we could have stayed longer. Terima kasih banyak!

Two lovely adjacent bungalows in front of the beach in the village with a shared porch with a dining table and relax chairs. The host Mamalis made amazing varied food, some of the best we’ve had in Indonesia. Papa Sem has a boat for snorkeling and dolphin tours. The atmosphere is calm, close to the pier and two diving schools. Communication in English is done through Stefen, who runs a nearby homestay. He is very friendly, like Mamalis and Papasem, whom you can talk to in Indonesian and through translation apps.

A wonderful spacious clean room with a very comfortable bed and great ac and Internet. Excellent location - the food provided was more than I could eat and every meal was delicious xxx - I especially enjoyed sitting outside my room on their front patio area with the view of the ocean . The hosts here are beautiful people who are kind and caring - it was my good fortune to get to know them.

The infrastructure of the MC accommodation I booked this time is sufficient for tourists with modest requirements. The service team is incredibly friendly and helpful, offering plenty of excellent travel tips. The in - house dive shop charges reasonably and doesn't engage in excessive promotion. The rooms come with air - conditioners, which are crucial for those of us who can't stand humidity and heat. The shower uses desalinated cold water that has a faint salty taste, but it doesn't mar the experience. There are basic tables and stools in the room, which meet our needs. The beds are large and comfortable. If you're not picky about room space, it's quite adequate. The daily meals are delicious Indonesian specialties. The hotel is superbly located right by the sea. It's just a ten - minute walk to the nearby beaches for snorkeling. There, you can witness coral gardens and huge underwater drop - offs, along with an abundance of fish and turtles. It's a magnificent sight. Due to the rainy season and our brief stay this time, I didn't get to try scuba diving. However, I'll definitely choose MC accommodation again. They have more upscale and comfortable options available to suit different needs.

Naca is a warm and welcoming host, and a great cook. We are all meals here and we loved it. She also has connections to other locals and knowledge about the surroundings so that can help you make the most of your stay. The location is perfect in the centre of the village. The room is simple and has everything you need. Keep in mind that there is no hot water (most places on the island lack this) and a fan for airconditioning.

Rooms are spacious and comfortable. So are all common areas so you can take a break from Manado heat at NDC. The pool do the job, you can actually do some swimming workout here. Location is close to Manado, so if you are looking for remote naturę close resort and a white beach choose something else. BUT there is really nice garden and a jetty overloocking the sea, wirh great sunset views. To sum up, 8-9, for the special price we had at booking.com.

Big and comfortable room with AC, functional bathroom. Water, tea and coffee available all the time. The food was amazing, catered for vegetarians and huge portions, and the women who looked after us caring and excellent. Thank you! A great location right next to the Tangkoko reserve entrance with Ifon our host and guide brilliant at spotting wildlife in the trees! Beautiful beaches and nice locals in the village. Basic facilities but if you are used to staying in Indonesia and or the jungle, you’ll be fine.

As a solo traveller, the attitude of the staff means more than anything. Lorenso, the owner and Bunaken local, felt like home from the first moment we met. Also, the location of the cottage is OUTSTANDING, exceeded my expectations:) You have your own private mangrove beach and private coral reef just outside. Just wow! The all included food was spectacular too! The rooms are big in size too :)

Great location in the village right next to the public ferry. The food was incredible, as mentioned by many others. You can experience the life of the people of Bunaken, as you are staying with a local family and everything happens on the street and beach around the house. The dive shop next door is also really good. Free water and coffee were also appreciated and the fan in the room an absolute necessity!

Beautiful resort with yummy food. The management and staff were great -any problems were sorted promptly and we felt very well cared for. Great atmosphere and beautiful sunset views. Amazing house reef for snorkelling! We did the dolphin & snorkelling trips and my boyfriend did some dives (special thanks to Lea for re-introducing him to diving), all well organised. The spa is also fab. 10 days went too quickly! Highly recommended.

The owner of the property was really great to communicate with before and during our stay and nothing was ever a problem for him. All the staff were amazing and the food was exceptional. Location of rooms over looking the ocean and always clean another bonus. The dive crew were very professional in every way.

Location is great, easy access to beach/water, great views of the main island with its volcanoes from the whole property. Spacious bungalow with a proper porch and hammock. Surrounded by jungle sounds including tarsiers! Very friendly staff that are always up for a laugh. Food was good, also vegetarian friendly. Very knowledgeable dive staff.

Outstanding in every way. We didn't expect to scuba but we were really lucky to be able to do our first dives here and felt safe and very well instructed and cared for. Snorkeling off the beach to the house reef was amazing and there was so much more to see that we didn't have time for. The rooms and tranquil, natural setting were fantastic. Staff were all friendly, cheerful and helpful.
