We enjoyed our week stay at Cha Cha very much. We were lucky enough to be the only couple at the resort for a few days and it felt like having our own private island, the resort being isolated from the other resots. Though the tide makes the reef a little "walk" away, it is one of the most alive... more

Havnig read all the 5-Star reviews on Trip Advisor had raised my expectation of this resort to a stratospheric level. I was brought down to earth on my arrival.To be fair, the place is cosy and well situated to take advantage of the beautiful coral gardens around Bunaken island. The wall dive was thrilling as we let the current swept... more

I just returned from a 2-day diving trip in Bunaken. First and foremost: the diving is "as good as advertised", definitely worth the trip. Staying at the Cha Cha resort added an extra dimension to the trip. The resort is quite basic, it is not a 5-start resort and neither pretends to be one. It is just the sort of... more

We spent five days at Bunaken Cha Cha and were extremely sad when we had to leave. Cha cha is a very nice place and is extremey well managed by Raf and Reiko. Bunaken is a faboulous place and it was good to be based on the island expecially as all the diving sites are at your doorstep. The diving... more

My boyfriend and I just got back from 15 days at Cha Cha Bunaken and we agree that it's probably been our best holidays ever! Not only is this little nature resort right on the beach and next to one of the world's most beautiful coral reefs - but the entire staff and the owners Raf and Raiko made us... more

I stayed six days at the resort with my brother ; we thought we would get basic comforts but instead we were pleased to find an excellend room with air-con, very good & varied food served at the table ; the diving is excellent and the guide, 'Solomon', and occasionally the owner, Ralph, do make the dive and short boat... more

I stayed 5 days at Bunaken Cha Cha and enjoyed every minute of it. The bungalows are very nice and spacious and equiped with hot water and air-con. The rooms are clean and the bed is great ... All the meals are included and are served at the table (not buffet style). The food is a mix of asian and... more

We spent the month of May at Cha Cha, this was our third visit in 4 years and it was better than ever. Many of the staff have changed but the new personnel are first class, especially the new Chef, In four weeks we hardly had any repeated menus at dinner, so we did not get bored with the asian... more

Cha ..rge Cha….rge Cha ….rge ! Finally getting a break away after three years for three precious days. We were not informed of major renovation and arrived to the sights and sounds of banging and this attractive sight. On climbing to the main open hall where people meet to eat there was major construction happening building a bar and wall... more

We booked our 9 night stay at Cha Cha based on all the possitive reviews. Unfortunately we were a bit disappointed. For example, we didn't experience the 'warm' hosts, as Raf was busy with staff issues and Reiko seemed to be interested in Yoga only. The rest of the staff was warm and friendly, and for sure Soleman is a... more
