Villas in Bunaken

In our opinion, the best place to stay on Bunaken island. The White House is beautiful and has all the amenities you could need for your stay: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels, robes etc as well as a whole load of extras: deodorant, make up remover wipes, a light up mirror, snorkelling equipment, plug converters and mosquito net. The decor is lovely and the room was spacious, modern and beautifully designed- with air con! The shower has hot water and the housekeeping daily was great. The rest of the house was also lovely, with a nice area for meals, chairs at the front of the property to relax, sun loungers and another table out the back on a decking on the beach, which has the perfect view for sunset. The sun sets over the volcano, which is an amazing setting. The finish on this place is truly fantastic and a lot of care has gone into making this a lovely place to stay with everything you could possibly need. Amanda, our host went above and beyond to make our stay incredible. Including reaching out before our arrival to enquire about allergies, help us with getting to Bunaken and meeting us as we got off the ferry to welcome us to her beautiful house. Throughout our stay the service has been perfect. The meals, cooked by the wonderful chef Yani have been delicious, varied and plentiful- we have been so well fed. The flavours in her cooking were just fantastic and I’ve had to ask her for one of the recipes! The food all comes from a reliable supermarket in Manado and was very fresh. At The White House, our washing has been done for us and Amanda accommodated an early breakfast when we had an early tour booked. Her, and all her staff here really have made our stay very special- nothing was ever too much. Bunaken island itself was magical. It’s a peaceful island, that hasn’t been overtaken by tourism. The corals were amazing- the best snorkelling I’ve ever done. I’d recommend going to turtle city, where we saw around 30+ turtles, some of which were huge.

Really enjoyed the hospitality and everything was more than what I was expecting! Definitely recommend
