Bastianos Bunaken Dive Resort

Excellent in all areas. Great area to work, dive, sleep. Great views, good staff, no hassle... all very very helpful.

Avoid, run far and fast! Food horrible and so little choice/ options especially given even with full board you are left hungry and you cannot (even if you’d want) to order more of the unidentified dishes/meats. No fresh veggies .. even the fruit were battered and passed their yummy state. Room barely ok even with sea view and patio, and we did check out as fast as the tide allowed us to get a boat out. Bathroom was sticky and mouldy, bath mats you cannot look at let alone step on, towels smelly! The whole building is too old too awful! Staff really not nice, uninterested in making any basic effort and only looking to cash in. Receptionist Sandra was really unpleasant and anything you asked for (basic - thing a hotel should have e.g soap etc) she’d say ok, yes and never do. Rather she’d just say no! Wi-fi not really working… Electricity stopped working so many times … Dive also very amateurish.. no dive briefing, equipment old and battered. On the boat the crew smokes and jokes around not really taking into account the guests… During rainy season no beach so pictures misleading. Beach and water was full full full of plastic and debris.. really sad but for this the responsibility is at the source of the plastic as some plastic traveled miles and miles to get here :( You could NOT go into the water
