The Village Bunaken

The Village sits on the southern coast of Bunaken Island in north Sulawesi, a dive resort with everything a diving week needs on site.

There is an outdoor pool, a well-kept garden and a lounge. Each bungalow has a wide terrace opening onto the garden. The private beach is backed by mangrove, which keeps the water calm.

The rooms take families and come with a desk, a private bathroom with a shower and toiletries, and plenty of wardrobe space. Some look out to sea. Breakfast is Asian and served on site.

The staff get most of the praise in guest reviews, and the kitchen handles dietary requirements including good vegetarian options. The dive centre on site is run carefully, with well-maintained equipment.

It is a straightforward place to spend a week diving Bunaken without having to organise anything.
