We love the variety of the food that was offered and the family atmosphere at meals. It was great to get to know the other guests and our hosts. Diving and snorkeling... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at BIR last June for 5 days. Frank, Lucy, and the rest of the team were wonderful. The food was great and we loved getting to know the rest of the guests over dives and meals. I finished my PADI certification at the resort. Sven is an incredible instructor and dive guide -- I can't... More

Super Bagus!!! We booked for 11 nights and just before we left Singapore I started to kind of regret a little, with a girlfriend that don’t swim, and certainly don’t dive - 11 days - on a dive resort? Hrmmm, we must be crazy I thought. But I thought it was good I brought the kayak so we can paddle... More

We really recommend to stay at Bunaken Island Resort. A warm welcome, wonderfull lodging, ecofriendly, great Indonesian kitchen and real hostmanship. Frank, Daya and Lucy are fantastic hosts: perfect service, customer made opportunities and humor. We weren't diving and still the place is very pleasant to stay. Especially the snorkelling was such a great experience and were lucky to snorkle... More

I stayed for three nights at BIR in early November 2012, with my Indonesian wife and our 4 month old baby girl. The room we had was spacious and comfortable, with fantastic ocean views and a great balcony for kicking back and relaxing. The restaurant set in the beautifully maintained gardens, served great home cooking, plentiful and delicious and the... More

We spent two nights at Bunaken Island Resort and we really had a great time over there. The setup of the resort is small scale which make you feel like you are at home away from home. The diving and snorkelling facilities are good and we found them not too expensive. The dive guides have a very professional attitude and... More

If you're looking for the perfect place to learn to dive - look no further. The reef is amazing, the sea life is incredible and Sven is the perfect person to guide you through the process. Even if you're just looking to snorkel, there is much to be enjoyed here. The reef is about 200m from the beach, and once... More
