  We just returned from an unforgettable stay at Bunaken Oasis, and I cannot say enough wonderful compliments about this resort and their amazing staff. We were treated so nicely by everyone and the fact that this is a smaller resort is a great feature. The resort itself is just beautiful, set amongst lots of flowering trees and shrubs, and the layout of the cottages at varying levels permits great views of the sea and grounds. Our cottage was so spacious with lots of storage space and the layout very comfortable. I loved having coffee on our balcony each morning. They even do daily pick up of laundry at no charge. Our diving and snorkeling experiences were first rate due to the comfort of the spacious boats, beautiful, healthy reefs filled with so many varieties of fish and coral, and the professional, caring and fun dive crew. Our meals at Bunaken were varied and delicious. The menus offer so much and there are no buffets. The lunch and dinner menu change each day offering everythi

  Our stay at Bunaken Oasis Dive Resort & Spa was truly special. |This intimate retreat is beautifully designed, with every detail feeling thoughtfully considered.

None of it feels forced, it just happens.||The resort has a real tranquility to it. Ending the day watching the sunset over the o

  How can one find words to express the phenomenal and unbeatable experience we shared with owner Elaine and her amazing staff. We thought we were diving snobs as we’ve had wonderful trips to the Maldives but the plethora of healthy vibrant coral species across 80 dive sites is mind blowing. The turtles and other animal inhabitants are so much at home and plentiful in this heavenly environment that you can hardly find a direction to look that doesn’t fill your eyes and mind with diverse beauty and entertainment. ||The food, the service and inclusive nature of our stay with smiling ever helpful attitude of all staff is heart warming. ||When we learned from the managers that they could ferry us to Monado in the wee hours of the morning to make our 7:20 AM flight, we were thrilled they could cancel our hotel night in Monado, extend our stay and shoe horn in two more dives with Matahari, our wonderful dive master on our additional day. ||That was the icing on the cake for the recreation

  Beautiful boutique resort, very well maintained with lush greenery. Nice pool to bask in the sun for the non sea activities guests.|All the staff are very friendly and attentive. A large variety of food that is curated daily.|Rooms are large and clean. Housekeeping comes 2-3x a day to make sure that everything is clean and tidy.|There is occasional noise from the nearby village but it’s bearable and when we were here, noise stops around 10pm.|L
