HEINER HOMESTAY, hotel in Bunaken

Set on the beachfront in Bunaken, HEINER HOMESTAY has a private beach area. The homestay features family rooms.

After spending already two weeks in indonesia we had our best time at Heiner Homestay with Ope, Olga and their lovely kids. They not only served us delicious food, they also helped us with guidance and information about activities. Snorcheling and dolphin tour with Ope was an incredible experience. Also the WLAN works very well. We really felt at home and welcome in their homestay next to the beach. Thank you so much!!

MAMALIS HOMESTAY, hotel in Bunaken

Offering sea views, MAMALIS HOMESTAY is an accommodation set in Manado, 700 metres from Pangalisang Beach and 1.2 km from Liang Beach. This property offers access to a terrace and free private...

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.

    The best homestay ever. Planned for three nights stayed for two weeks. Sweet home with my caring Novita mama and funny Butul papa and Oma and Opa. Comfortable and clean room with stable electricity (luxury), best cooking in Bunaken(Novita would prepare fish for guests like me but Tofu for vegans and nuggets for children and change menu almost everyday. You can also easily book dive/ snorkeling or trips from here with reasonable price. Definitely come back again!

    We spent five nights at El Homestay as a group of four friends. Before arriving in Bunaken, I thought it would be too much time there, but once we arrived at El Homestay, we didn't want to leave.... It has been amazing staying here and experiencing Bunaken. There is a lot to do: snorkeling, diving, dolphins, sandbank, mangroves, visiting Siladen Island, hiking, renting a motorbike, and visiting the viewpoint. We can't wait to be back next year. Thank you Stefen + Family!

    This was without a doubt the best homestay we have experienced in two years of traveling through Asia. Stefen has been an incredible help with everything we needed and organized for us one of the best tours of our lives: the dolphins, Nain Island sandbank, and Siladen snorkeling tour. It's been two weeks since we left his homestay, and we still think daily of our time there. We would love to go back as soon as possible. The food was delicious and very healthy.

    Very comfortable homestay and a nice open common area with free tea and coffee. The food was amazing and always so much of it! We also had a tour booked one afternoon meaning we would miss lunch but the guys held some back for us to eat when we got back. Location is really nice as it backs on to the beach. If you take a snorkel and swim 50 metres out until the coral drops off then you'll see dozens of turtles!
