I had a wonderful stay in Bunaken. The owner Aci is very nice. I enjoyed the breakfast, the clean room and all the services. I booked a boat trip for snorkeling that was amazing. Thanks Aci !

The infrastructure of the MC accommodation I booked this time is sufficient for tourists with modest requirements. The service team is incredibly friendly and helpful, offering plenty of excellent travel tips. The in - house dive shop charges reasonably and doesn't engage in excessive promotion. The rooms come with air - conditioners, which are crucial for those of us who can't stand humidity and heat. The shower uses desalinated cold water that has a faint salty taste, but it doesn't mar the experience. There are basic tables and stools in the room, which meet our needs. The beds are large and comfortable. If you're not picky about room space, it's quite adequate. The daily meals are delicious Indonesian specialties. The hotel is superbly located right by the sea. It's just a ten - minute walk to the nearby beaches for snorkeling. There, you can witness coral gardens and huge underwater drop - offs, along with an abundance of fish and turtles. It's a magnificent sight. Due to the rainy season and our brief stay this time, I didn't get to try scuba diving. However, I'll definitely choose MC accommodation again. They have more upscale and comfortable options available to suit different needs.

The best and kindest homestay i have ever been! This homestay is unique in many forms: the owner Steven contacted me a few days before my arrival to answer all my questions, which was a solo female traveller very helpful. He organised me a taxi and boat from Manado to come to Bunaken and back. Through this i could catch directly my flight. Steven and Misi were always helping me with any situation coming up and I had the feeling I could always ask them anything (i had a difficult situation in the middle). The prices were always transparent and fair. They also helped me to find a very good diving school and helped me planning my snorkeling trips (they have a lot of contacts). Both are very kind, warm and open. They even invited me to celebrate New Years Eve with them and their friends. On my last night we had a small farewell party to which Steven invited some friends over to play music! The room is very clean and comfortable. In the whole house I always had perfect and fast Wifi (didn't expect it on an Island:)). The room had a fan and as an add-on AC. The food is cooked fresh, delicious and a lot. Dietary requests are taken serious (as for me i dont like fish and love Tempeh :)). I also rented a Scooter from them which had a very high quality! I am super happy and grateful I stayed at El Homestay and I am already planning to come back:). I honestly fell in love with this family. If you want to have homestay which feels like home and get to know the village of Bunaken and the culture you should definetely stay at El Homestay!

The family of the homestay are lovely and treat you like part of the family straight away. The food was excellent and plentiful. Not only did they cater to vegetarian and vegan diets easily, the food was delicious and a highlight of our stay. For the room, it was small but adequate with a queen size bed with a comfortable mattress. The bathroom was nice with a good pressure cool shower and flushing toilet. Aircon worked great.and was a nice treat. Ken's homestay was the place to be in the evening with live music being played by various talents from across the village. It's a fun and friendly vibe. Some nights are more lively than others which was a nice mix for us. If you are a light sleeper or go to bed early bring earplugs and it is fine. The mornings are nice and quiet and you can wake up to the sound of the waves. You can't even hear the church or the mosque! We went on two snorkelling tours and both were great ways to see other amazing snorkelling spots and we even visited the village on Manado Tua. Good value too. We extended our stay by two nights and wished we could have stayed longer. Terima kasih banyak!

Two lovely adjacent bungalows in front of the beach in the village with a shared porch with a dining table and relax chairs. The host Mamalis made amazing varied food, some of the best we’ve had in Indonesia. Papa Sem has a boat for snorkeling and dolphin tours. The atmosphere is calm, close to the pier and two diving schools. Communication in English is done through Stefen, who runs a nearby homestay. He is very friendly, like Mamalis and Papasem, whom you can talk to in Indonesian and through translation apps.

Firstly, we were amazed about the location: A beautiful panoramic view of Manado, Manado Tua and Bunaken. The room was small but practical and cozy. We were very surprised about the 'Control room'. There is a console which you can change the lighting color of the room, bluetooth connectivity (which you can play your own music or play nature background sound) and lastly the window that you can turn from opague to clear in one touch. You can also use the Bobocabin app to use the mentioned futures. The jacuzzi was also a big plus: Clean and warm jacuzzi with an amazing view of Manado and Manado Tua.

    The location was fantastic! Snorkelling right off the beach onto a coral reef 👌. As beginners to diving, we did several dives and felt very safe with the dive instructors. All equipment was in very good condition and checked regularly. And of course the diving itself was out of this world! Turtles galore. The staff are what truly made our stay perfect. The kitchen staff are amazing and handled my coeliac diet with ease, and they are amazing fun!

    Best location on the island- sunset behind the volcano, great snorkeling just out the front, cozy little beach bar. Fabulous owner and team, paired with equally wonderful dive team next door. Helpful arranging transport and payments (no ATM on island, or any shops- stock up before leaving mainland!) Amazing meals and food! It's basic accomodation so expect to forfeit luxury for location and fabulous vibes.

    Good, freshly cooked food every day. Very clean. Various snorkeling and diving spots close by. High quality diving and snorkeling equipment for rent. They have some of the lowest prices for diving and snorkeling on the island. Laundry service was good and reliable. Would recommend it to experienced divers. They organize decent snorkeling trips as well. It's a beautiful and quiet location, but still very central.
