- very comfortable and calm place - perfect also for transit if you want to relax after a journey through North-Sulawesi before your backflight - good breakfast - unfortunately only stayed last night before flying back so I couldn't go diving with the crew..but what I heard from the other guests diving also works well with the crew

Situated in Manado, 10 km from Manado Harbor, Murex Dive Resort boasts an outdoor pool and a private beach area. The hotel has a spa centre and water sports facilities, and guests can enjoy a meal at the restaurant. Free private parking is available on site.

If you come to North Sulawesi to dive, but also to explore the surroundings and get to know the country and its people, then Murex Dive Resort is the ideal place. Located directly on the sea just outside the city in a spacious park area, it offers everything you need. Nice bungalows with AC, very good catering (we ate à la carte, not from the buffet) as well as cordial and helpful staff. Dive boats to Bunaken leave directly from the hotel's own beach. The resort also organizes tours into the hinterland. We were on a number of volcanoes (Empung, Mahawi and Soputan) as well as in Tangkoko National Park. Everything was perfectly organized and breathtakingly beautiful.

A 25-minute drive from Manado’s Sam Ratulangi International Airport, Cocotinos Manado overlooks Bunaken National Marine Park and is located within Wori Bay in Kima Bajo Fishing Village. It features an outdoor pool and restaurant with sea views.

Rooms at the boutique beach resort are spacious and come with balconies that overlook the tropical garden. A daybed, work desk and a safe are included.

We adored our time in Cocotinos, so much so that when a different part of our North Sulawesi trip fell through, we immediately went to book again at Cocotinos. The food is good and varied (Western, Indonesian, everything is well-made and available), the staff are sweet and polite and thoughtful, the dive shop and crew are solid, and the grounds + garden + pool + beach + rooms are all clean, in perfect shape, and welcoming.

    we love the quietness of this remotely located resort! The swimming pool, garden and the jetty are nice... The staff are kind and helpful. The bathroom is unique and the room is big enough for our family of 3 people. They set the sofa into a bed for our teenage boy and he loves it! :)

    This is neither a luxury or a budget resort. It is a very good middle ground resort and that is their business niche which is important in that there are several very expensive resorts at one end of the resort spectrum and home stays at the other end. This is positioned right in the middle and perfect for divers that want to experience coral and muck diving. Their motto is leave as a friend and they meet that goal. Staff are great.

    Very friendly and helpful team of people in the resort, from reception to the diving team. We had a great time staying at Thalassa resort. The place is very relaxed, and the food is delicious and fresh. We also really enjoyed our diving and day trip with the resort. Thank you.

    We really enjoyed our stay. The staff both on the resort and diving center were extremely helpful, and provided a professional service with a smile. The bungalows are tastefully decorated and in good condition. The garden, restaurant, pool area... everything works well. The diving in the area is as good as it gets. Even snorkling you can get really close to the marine life.

    Resort has a good common area and nice pools that sets it apart from competition. Good rooms, comfortable beds, no outside noise. Best part was the amazing service and help from the owners. Solving any surprise situation (find a new dive guide when planned one was sick), to cooking personalized food and treat for kids, to shopping for special items (visit 4 supermarkets to find what's asked for)

    The resort is located in a beautiful area full of trees and flowers. The bungalows are a natural part of the environment, with glass windows and doors. It is like living in and with nature. The staff is very friendly and supportive, the owner is a great inspirator, not only about diving and holiday making, also about social work in the village. We had a very relaxing, warm and inspiring holiday!
