If you are looking for a place to dive in Bunaken you found the right one! All the team is super friendly and they make you feel like home all the time, also they are very experienced divers so you will for sure have a nice experience underwater! They also organised a nice fire to say goodbye when we left and we all sat there singing along with the guitar! I cannot thank them enough for the amazing experience! Hopefully we will dive together again in the future 🤗

Three days of diving with Blue Shark Divers. Friendly staff and best guides. Cherry on the cake was a bonfire with songs on our last night.

(review about diving only)The best dives we've ever done so far. We booked 2 dives and ended up doing 5 (and we wish we could have done more 🥹).Dion, the owner is really nice and welcoming. We went diving with Ado who was an amazing guide. Very chill, very knowledgeable and very kind. He also made some very cool videos with our go pro.The gear looked really new too.

We have had a terrible experience in this place, we agreed firsthand to do a dive with them and when we arrived they told us that there had to be two of us, we had no problem and we did it. We told him that we were going to stay 4 nights and on the third night they kicked us out for doing a dive somewhere else, he told us that we were obliged to do it with him even though it was more expensive, and they also left us without food service that day. They basically kicked us out for not taking more money themselves.

I spent 4 days there. Very nice place and great 10 dives. All meals were a poem - like the black marlin steaks. A big thank you to Dijon and its staff especially the chef-chapeau bas!.

We stayed for four nights at the motel and did diving for three days. Overall, a great experience. Lovely marine life.The convenience is the most important offer of this place. They pick you up from manado, it is full board, rooms are decent and basic, you start on your boat for dives right in front of the motel, you come back and your lunch is ready. It’s the same person you coordinate for rooms, food, dives, everything. Everything is taken care of, basically. And, it is 100% value for money.Room:The hostel/motel was good, the rooms and bathrooms were basic and had everything you need. This is a small island, thus, you will hear chickens, dogs, mosque, church around you. Also, the island has power cuts (but Blue shark had generator) and has a voltage problem due to which the AC takes a few hours to cool.Host:Good host, easy communication in English, arranged everything for us from airport pickup to drop off in Manado. This was extremely helpful because language is a challenge. He also blocked the rooms with us without an advance payment. He went above and beyond and helped arrange (and coordinate because the taxi guy did not know English) taxi for us for the next three days also.Food:Food was great, spread was good. They accommodated veg options too.Dive sites:Amazing dive sites! We are beginners and some places had current, so it was good practice. The marine life is one of the best in the world. And night dives are also good.Dive instructor:We did nine dives with Vian. He was decent, was good for fun dives, don’t think I would do a course with him though. He helped show us a lot of aquatic life, macro and micro, appreciated his effort. However, the feedback I have for him is specific on micro life. I think he is more interested in micro life. Because of that, in every dive, he would spend time at one single spot while we hover and wait at the same spot. This was not for a short time like two minutes. Once, I actually checked. I finished 20 bar just at one spot. I had originally told them that we are interested in macro life more, I hope they can incorporate this change where they can ask about what we want and focus on that. Rather than spend 20 bars on something we might not be able to appreciate.

Excellent homestay to spend a few days diving and snorkeling.Material in good condition, high-level diveMasters, but above all excellent food and facilities.We stayed for five days and visited different places on the island to go diving, and we also rented a motorcycle one afternoon to take a ride around the island, all at very competitive prices.Highly recommended place to stay in Bunaken.

Beautil place, the food is the best I prove in Sulawesi, the diving equipment is in very good shape and the staff is very professional, I can only recommend this place if you go for diving to Bunaken, possibly the best in the Island.

We were very well received by Dion and his entire team. The accommodation was very clean and we had air conditioning which allowed us to sleep comfortably. The meals were delicious with vegetarian option and above all we were never hungry given the quantities 😊We did several dives with Ado (dive master of Dion's team), including a night dive for the first time. Everything was very good and above all he was attentive to us. The equipment is in very good condition, safety is fully respected and we had a clear briefing each time. Particularly Dion who provided us with explanations before the night dive as well as readings to inform us, which allowed us to have a great time.In summary, we had an excellent stay and we recommend it!
