Bastianos Bunaken Dive Resort

Excellent in all areas. Great area to work, dive, sleep. Great views, good staff, no hassle... all very very helpful.

This was the third time we were there, but now I do have points of criticism. I start positive. Very friendly staff and the house reef is beautiful. The staff really try to make you feel comfortable! There were more sunbeds at the pool. But the food clearly showed monotony. basically always white rice. In addition, there was a barbecue with cocktails from 175000 to 100000 rupiah. But the cocktails were also more than half the size without ice. Paul the manager indicated that as snorkelers you didn't have to pay if you went with a group of divers. in the end you had to pay. It's not about the money, it's about breaking promises. The condition of our room was not good. maintenance is only carried out immediately if you request it. The foot tap in the bathroom came off and it became a waterfall. That tap was leaking from day 1 we were there. My wife and I fell through the bed.

Avoid, run far and fast! Food horrible and so little choice/ options especially given even with full board you are left hungry and you cannot (even if you’d want) to order more of the unidentified dishes/meats. No fresh veggies .. even the fruit were battered and passed their yummy state. Room barely ok even with sea view and patio, and we did check out as fast as the tide allowed us to get a boat out. Bathroom was sticky and mouldy, bath mats you cannot look at let alone step on, towels smelly! The whole building is too old too awful! Staff really not nice, uninterested in making any basic effort and only looking to cash in. Receptionist Sandra was really unpleasant and anything you asked for (basic - thing a hotel should have e.g soap etc) she’d say ok, yes and never do. Rather she’d just say no! Wi-fi not really working… Electricity stopped working so many times … Dive also very amateurish.. no dive briefing, equipment old and battered. On the boat the crew smokes and jokes around not really taking into account the guests… During rainy season no beach so pictures misleading. Beach and water was full full full of plastic and debris.. really sad but for this the responsibility is at the source of the plastic as some plastic traveled miles and miles to get here :( You could NOT go into the water

Amazing hotel, good foood. Snorkling at 8 am many fish. Nice snorkling spot. Hotel surrounding sell local food. Friendly locals and staff. Good for family. Beach is clean with a perfect mountain view. 30 menit boat ride from mando terminal

Alles was das Taucherherz begehrt… Nette Zimmer, sauber und mit genügend Trinkwasser… Personal super freundlich und hilfsbereit… Tauchen sehr gut organisiert und das alles durch Einheimische… Essen Super, Transfers super… Einzig das WLan wackelt etwas… aber man hat ja Urlaub…
