Our Favorite Place

“After many years, we have finally discovered our favorite place. Sensational dives, indescribably beautiful reefs. Excellent service, all the staff are extremely friendly. Our wishes and expectations were exceeded by far. A big thank you to every single member of the staff for what you do. We will see you again soon.”

Outstanding Diving Experience

“An outstanding diving experience. Our dive guide was a gem, and the rest of the diving team was awesome. The Fluo diving was also unique. For the resort, the first impression was awesome. Amazing staff that are very dedicated to customer satisfaction and in a very touching and natural way. The accommodation was also terrific with the location right on the beach and the outstanding outdoor shower and turn-up of the room. The food was diverse, abundant and all together very nice. Good job to the chefs and all the restaurant team. The cleaning of the beach, all the reef protection, sustainable development working with the local villages is awesome and the way of the future. Please keep at it.”

Highly Recommendable

“Breathtakingly beautiful location. The snorkeling and diving sites are rich in colors, fish, corals, and overall variety. Highly recommendable to the entire spectrum of snorkelers and scuba divers, from neophytes to highly experienced and certified”

“From booking to diving, all the staff are simply extraordinary in providing care, attention, and assistance. The dive team’s performance goes way beyond what is to be expected from this top-of-the-line dive center. The equipment is of state-of-the-art quality. The dive team support system (boat, safety, emergency skills) is also well run. Regardless of conditions, one feels immediately well taken care of and geared towards establishing the absolute trust required in diving activities.”

A Diving Pearl In Paradise!

“We had a wonderful stay in Wakatobi! Diving was great, accommodation was great, food was great, and the service was in all aspects and everywhere one of a kind. As far as the diving (that’s what we came for) the variety of the dives was awesome, and we truly enjoyed our guide. Accommodations are so nice, so convenient, so enjoyable. It makes a holiday more than a holiday. As far as the restaurant is concerned: the staff was kind, so much service minded and everything with a smile. The chef did a great job. Variety of the food is excellent and matched our taste and expectations every time. Keep up the great work so more people can enjoy this diving pearl in paradise!”

No Need to Look Any Further

“Once you come to Wakatobi where do you go after that? There is no need to look any further. You have arrived in an ethical, elegant, world-class resort and reefs. The staff is 5-star. Genuine, and courteous, they go above and beyond — the best I have ever experienced. We love the environmental ethics, community efforts, and commitment to saving the reefs. Thank you for your vision!”

The Best Indonesia Has to Offer

“Possibly the best-run dive resort we have ever been to, and the best Indonesia has to offer divers. Very well organized and genuinely helpful and nice staff on all positions from kitchen, serving and barmen to dive helpers, dive guides and boat helpers/captains.”

Pelagian Exceeds Expectations

“Incomparable service from all quarters. Diving, boat crew, chef, and stewards and also those working below decks who we don’t see often. Everyone works in partnership to create the best trip possible, making sure the Pelagian experience is enhanced and exceeds expectations.”

Every Moment Exceeded Expectations

“It’s a long way from Santa Barbara, California to Wakatobi, but worth every mile. Every moment at the resort exceeded our expectations. Every meal was spectacular, romantic, and delicious.

“We so appreciate the absence of any type of single-use plastic and all your efforts to keep the reefs clean.”

The Dive Sites are Some of the Best in the World

“The staff went above and beyond to ensure our twin daughters were cared for, especially with their food allergies. The dive guides ensured great dives, pointing out sea life (pygmy seahorses) and exceeded our expectations! The dive sites are some of the best in the world. The resort ambience is world-class. Amazing food, comfortable villas, and the care that went into cleanliness was much appreciated!  We will be back, see you.”
