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!

Great place to stay for snorkeling and diving around Siladen and Bunaken. The bungalows are stylish, clean and comfortable. The food is excellent and prepared with great detail. The staff is helpful and frinedly. Siladen island itself is very small and quiet with only a very small village in the south part where Kuta Laut is located also.

Owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. They’re very attentive to ensure your stay is a memorable and pleasant one. The resort is right on the beach. So if you book snorkelling trips through the resort, you can easily access to the boat as it will be parked in front of the resort. I enjoyed the beautiful view from the dining area. You can watch sunset from the resort. The resort is also near the border between the Muslim and Christian kampung. There is nearby ATM which I never tried. There are also nearby local shophouses and dive shops. You can walk to the main jetty. The locals are friendly and warm so don’t forget to put up your smiley face and say Hi!. The resort serve delicious local food which you can order for lunch and dinner. Breakfast is generous so if you can’t finish, let the workers know that you want less servings so you won’t waste the food. Or you can also pack to bring along for snorkeling trips. Tips for travellers who are first time coming here: As it is on an island, the electricity works on generator. Standby a torch or a headlight in case the electricity turned off suddenly at night. From my experience, the electricity trip normally took about 5 to 15 minutes. I stayed in the lower floor. The lights in the room were dim and my eyesight was not so good. Thankfully I brought my headlight. Like most island resorts, there is no tv. So download your favourite movies beforehand so you can play it anytime. There is wifi but the speed is unpredictable.

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!

Very cute and simple homestay! The location on the beach is very nice and mamalis is a very good cook. The couple will help you to rent a scooter or organize snorkeling trips and there is a good diving center next door. It might be cheaper to only book one night and then extend the stay, since they charge less when it's not on this platform. Communication is through translator app and the neighbours,but it works well!

    Villa Queen’s made our Bunaken trip extraordinary.

    Villa Queen’s made our Bunaken trip extraordinary. Though we stayed in the Homestay, it felt like a four-star resort thanks to cozy memory foam beds, air conditioning, and a stylish bathroom. Power and internet never failed, which was impressive given the island’s frequent outages—Starlink made working online effortless. We loved having access to multiple pools, a gym, and special experiences like carving lessons. Excursions took us from dolphin tours to cultural sites, and the diving team helped both beginners and certified divers feel at ease in the water. The food blew us away—fresh, flavorful, and farm-to-table quality. It’s the perfect mix of comfort, adventure, and authentic local flavor.

    Our stay at Villa Queen’s in Bunaken was unforgettable. Even in the Homestay section, the comfort felt luxurious, with memory foam beds, personal fans, air conditioning, and a well-designed bathroom. Despite frequent island-wide power outages, we always had electricity and fast Starlink internet—ideal for remote work. Guests enjoy access to three pools, a gym, and even unique activities like wood carving with the resident artist. We explored the region through guided tours, dolphin watching, and sunset cruises, while diving options ranged from PADI certifications to beginner-friendly pool sessions. The food, sourced from their own farm hotel, was simply outstanding. Villa Queen’s combines comfort, adventure, and world-class hospitality in one remarkable experience.

    Well, a week is certainly enough to get your fill of Bunaken itself, but as soon as you take your eyes out of the water, it is clear that the area has much more to offer with dramatic volcanic mountains lining the Manado Bay. We visited the Tunan waterfall and spent a day in Tangkoko National park, but I wished we could have also explored the highland towns, the Soputan and Lokon volcanoes and Lembeh strait. It is pretty impressive to have so many different experiences within 50 km from Manado.

    Bunaken is a lovely island and central port of call for the surrounding Marine Reserve. It has a lively small village and a range of accommodation options. We are not divers but we understood that the diving was fantastic. We do enjoy snorkeling and were able to be taken by boat to snorkel in several varied locations. A highlight was “turtle city”, where we saw at least a dozen turtles on the edge of the reef.

    A beautiful island with an underwater world like nowhere else in the world. wherever you put your head under water, you will find a beautiful coral reef. A very safe island, as a woman I was not afraid to go anywhere alone. The local people are very polite. Great food at great prices rent motorbikes and see the whole island. on Bunaken are NO cars restaurants don't have a big menu, but everything is always fresh. diving here doesn't cost much, you should definitely try it (even without a license) snorkeling is amazing. there is no ATM here, but some restaurants will give you cash for 5%. when paying by card in a restaurant they charge 3% (but not everywhere you could pay by card). in general stores you could only pay in cash.

    This island's coral life is amazing. The best point in north Sulawesi for scuba diving. The reef wall has wonderful biodiversity. Center of the southern part of the island is the best spot and easier to reach the coral wall. This is a protected marine park and they should consider to protect this area more seriosly.

The diving was also very good I am told and there are turtles everywhere even if you go snorkelling off the beach you can see them all around. We will be back to Bunaken and will stay at 4 sisters (and one brother!!). Caroline and Nigel
