North Sulawesi: Pesquise resorts

Lekker Gezellig Dive Resort Manado encontra-se em Bunaken, a 13 km de Porto de Manado, e apresenta acomodações com uma piscina exterior, estacionamento privado gratuito, um jardim e um terraço. This was a good value place to stay, extremely close to Bunaken where the diving was great. The staff were helpful and friendly with everything we needed. The room was clean and very comfortable.

Wawowow localiza-se em Tomohon, a 33 km de Porto de Manado, e fornece acomodações com um jardim, estacionamento privado gratuito, um terraço e um restaurante. Wawowow is a very special place. But it’s not for everyone. If you want to be away from city sounds and pollution, way out in the peace of the countryside among farms and mountain views — and if you are a person who enjoys the ruggedness of tent or A-frame cabin camping, then you will love Wawowow. Alvin has built this off-the-grid retreat himself, adding to it each year. He and his staff are caring and helpful. The well laid out grounds are covered in lawns and most if not all tents and cabins have small brick firepits. Alvin can provide the firewood for them. When I was there a number of people sat around these campfires at night singing and playing guitars. No sound amplification is allowed. Some people chose to stay on the grounds for several days. I used it as a jumping off place each morning to tour different parts of the Tomohon area each day., returning each evening.

Solitude Lembeh Resort apresenta uma piscina exterior, jardim, um salão partilhado e terraço em Girian. Direct waterfront resort with an amazing garden. Lovely friendly staff. Everything shows that the manager is German. Comfortable diving boat, experienced driver. We spent 6 days there and saw wonders under the water. Perfect place for rest, relaxation and diving!

K2 Lembeh Dive Resort apresenta um jardim, terraço, um restaurante e bar em Bitung. Apresentando serviço de quartos, este alojamento também dispõe de comodidades para churrascos. Staff was amazing ! The couple in the kitchen was so nice, food was the best we had during our whole stay. We even had a special cake to celebrate our 100th dive! The dive team was exceptional, Man and Piky helped us see the most amazing stuff. Definetely among the best dives we ever had. Room is nice as well, AC really useful.

Panorama Cottage tem um jardim, área de praia privada, um terraço e restaurante em Bunaken. Os funcionários no local podem providenciar transfers do aeroporto. This was one of my favorite stays in Indonesia. The view from the room was amazing, the staff were very friendly and the food was the best on my trip. The vibe of Bunaken is very relaxed and the snorkeling is amazing right in front of the Panorama Cottages. If you stay at Panorama Cottages you will eat with the guests from Panorama Backpackers, and there is a lot of great company. I tried snorkeling directly in front of the property and also joined a tour. Both are worth it. The fish and turtles on the reef are incredible, and the prices are excellent for the tours and equipment rental. I also appreciated the quality of the rental equipment because you never know what you will get when you rent.

Pulisan Resort encontra-se em Rinondoran, a 5 minutos a pé de Praia de Paal, e apresenta acomodações com um jardim, estacionamento privado gratuito e um restaurante. Where do I start ……it’s family owned, it’s fabulous location , kind and friendly staff , fresh and delicious food , beautifully built traditional wooden accommodation, transfers to and from the airport were impeccable, on time and safe, and lastly on the edge of a jungle but fantastic Wi-Fi reception.

Nomad Divers Bangka apresenta um jardim, área de praia privada, um salão partilhado e terraço em Manado. Marijn the owner was incredibly attentive. The food was outstanding. The boat crew were friendly and generous with the time allowed for snorkelling trips. The nature walks were informative. The bungalows were well fitted out and comfortable. The location is serene.

Localizado em Manado, a 16 km do Porto de Manado, o Bunaken Oasis Dive Resort and Spa dispõe de uma piscina exterior e de um centro de spa. Os hóspedes podem desfrutar do bar no local. Had a few mishaps with flights and did not think we would actually make it to Bunaken. From the moment you arrive you are in paradise. The staff are what make this resort 5 stars. We have stayed at many luxury resorts and dive resorts around the world and Bunaken Oasis is our top 3. Service, staff, food, diving, room, the pool was all amazing. We stayed 3 nights and wish we stayed longer. Room has a Nespresso machine, water filter in room, beds are huge and comfy! We opted for full board which is a la carte breakfast, lunch and dinner. So much food and the food is actually good, big portions and you can order whatever and have as much as your stomach allows. Dive boats, dive guide and dive gear are top notch. We saw heaps of turtles and highly recommend Buanken for diving. Little extras like watching the sunset in the pool and staff bringing out beverages without us even having to ask. Such a romantic and magical resort and highly recommend. The surprise at the end of your stay is so special and very thankful to have stayed at this resort.

Thalassa Dive & Wellbeing Resort boasts 1 outdoor pools in the shade of jungle gardens, a restaurant as well as a lounge & cafe. The accommodation was comfortable and well maintained. We enjoyed the food and all the staff were very helpful and friendly. The dive staff were attentive and very helpful.

Siladen Resort & Spa is an eco-friendly beachfront resort with an outdoor pool, a private beach area and a restaurant overlooking the ocean. Este hotel tem 4 estrelas mas a meu ver equivale a 5 estrelas. Fica em frente à praia e relativamente isolado da povoação da pequenina ilha onde se localiza. Os bangalows são espaçosos, muito limpos e muito confortáveis. A casa de banho num pátio interno, além de bonita, dá um toque muito exótico ao quarto. Entre os bangalows e as áreas comuns do hotel existem jardins muito bonitos e bem cuidados. As refeições são muitas vezes servidas na praia debaixo de umas árvores enormes que proporcionam sombra, ficando de frente para um dos pores-do -sol mais belos que já vi. As refeições são variadas e de muita qualidade . Ao longo de todo o dia podemo-nos servir gratuitamente de chá, café, fruta e bolachas caseiras. O hotel tem excelentes infra-estruturas para o mergulho e o mergulho aqui é simplesmente magnífico!!Os jardins de coral são lindos e eu nunca vi tantas tartarugas marinhas como as que encontrei aqui. Também utilizamos o spa e fizemos uma massagem de 90 min que foi genial! Por um preço muito bom. Acho que pagaria o triplo ou mais pela mesma massagem, se tivesse sido feita na Europa…Mas o melhor de tudo consiste na forma em como o pessoal do hotel nos faz sentir bem-vindos. Descobriram que um de nós fazia anos e fizeram um bolo de aniversário, decoraram a nossa mesa de jantar com flores e velas e quando chegámos ao quarto tínhamos um espectacular arranjo de toalhas e flores. Fizeram-nos sentir muito especiais. No dia em que chegámos ao hotel tivemos uma agradável surpresa: os gerentes do hotel, naquele local longínquo são um casal de portugueses!! A Ana, com quem tivemos mais contacto, é uma anfitriã que nos recebeu calorosamente no seu hotel. Apercebi-me que o sucesso deste hotel em muito se deve à sua dedicação e ao amor que entrega ao seu trabalho. Muito obrigado Ana e marido, pelo vosso excelente trabalho, pela fabulosa estadia que tivemos no vosso hotel.
