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.
