Once Again, Impressed

As returning guests, we were once again impressed by the exceptional service and incredible attention to detail. The experience feels effortless, and the team consistently goes above and beyond to make every guest feel well looked after. A special mention must go to our Dive Experience Manager, who was absolutely exceptional. No request was ever too big, and his professionalism, helpfulness and genuine care made a real difference to our stay. Another wonderful stay, and we look forward to returning.

Attentiveness, Professionalism and Hospitality are Outstanding

A magnificent place with exceptional and truly unique snorkeling sites. Here, nature makes you feel at every moment just how privileged you are. The exclusivity of the location, made possible by the resort’s commitment to remaining small, is also very pleasant. We’d especially like to mention the dive team, which is professional, lovely, and makes every moment unique. Our dive manager’s advice was invaluable for getting the best possible snorkeling sessions, and his guidance was perfect. We shared unforgettable moments with him. The attentiveness and professionalism of the restaurant team and the efficiency and kindness of the wider staff were outstanding, and the hospitality of the entire team is extremely endearing. We had a very good stay overall.

Every Moment is Personalized

The stay at Wakatobi was EXTRAORDINARY. Every detail is cared for with the utmost attention, but the truly extraordinary part is how every moment is personalized, from the diving to the times of relaxation. All the staff recognize you and welcome you with the love of a family. YOU ARE A FAMILY. THANK YOU. Stunning.

Absolutely Perfect Trip From Beginning to End

We spent 14 incredible days at Wakatobi, and our stay was absolutely perfect from beginning to end. The food was excellent, with wonderful variety every day, but what truly made our stay special was the entire Wakatobi team. Every single member of staff, across all departments and without exception, was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to making our stay as perfect as possible. The rooms are practical, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Each dive was simply breathtaking. The diving operation is exceptionally well organized, and the facilities have been thoughtfully designed to make everything easy and enjoyable. This was our first time at Wakatobi, but it certainly won’t be our last. A huge thank you to the entire team for making these 14 days so special.

We Will Be Back

This is the most amazing place. The diving is incredible and the island is beautiful, but what really makes it is the staff. The service was absolutely off the charts. The whole team is AMAZING: the restaurant team, housekeeping, butler, spa, nannies and dive teams. The way everyone remembered all of our names was truly impressive. The resort is beautiful and so well maintained, and we loved details like the shells lining the paths and the sand sculptures. The dive setup is incredible, the guides were great at spotting things for us, and the kids had an incredible time learning with great instructors. The food was excellent, and we really appreciated the accommodation for gluten-free and fussy children. The villa signs with our children’s names were AMAZING. We had a truly memorable trip, and I think we will all be back and send our friends!

Corals and Fish are Outstanding

An absolutely amazing experience! The coral and fish are outstanding. All of the staff were so friendly and personal, and remembering every guest’s name makes it so special. Our snorkeling guide was incredible and has a great energy. The cabins are just right: simple yet elegant. Great food and cocktails, and the wait staff were impeccable. Nothing was too hard for them, and they were always attentive and smiling. We will definitely be back again.

A Wonderful Holiday

To everyone at Wakatobi, thank you for giving us a wonderful holiday. Your warm welcome, your laughter and your impeccable service have been a dream. We also enjoyed celebrating Independence Day and the special 30th anniversary celebrations. Such fun! The diving, kiting, food, snorkeling, villa, grounds: all excellent. We wish every one of you happiness, health and success in the future.

The Residence is Over The Top; Don’t Change a Thing!

The number one best reefs in the world. The Residence is over the top, luxurious and spacious. It’s very hard to design something that doesn’t offend me, much less something I actually like, but the decor is perfect. I wouldn’t change a thing. All the furniture is very comfortable and in perfect condition, everything was very clean, and the service was excellent. I am again 100% satisfied and would have been no matter which villa or bungalow I stayed in.
