One of Our Favorite Experiences Ever

Exceeds All Expectations

“Our second visit did not disappoint. Wakatobi exceeds all expectations – the reefs, the people, the food, the service, the total experience is like a dream come true. A fantastic operation from greeting us at the Bali airport to departure. The staff is top-notch in all regards.

On this trip I was especially pleased with our snorkel guide. She recognized that we were slow snorkelers – looking at everything and helping us to see many things, cheerful and knowledgeable. We got an education on behaviors, coral and so forth.

The food was a delightful array, and I ate way too much.”

A Slice of Paradise

“This was our 3rd visit to Wakatobi and we loved every minute. The resort is beautiful and so well maintained! The staff are all very friendly and helpful; customer service is excellent; the food is delicious. The spa experience was amazing as was our romantic dinner – so nice!

The dive boats are wonderfully laid out and the dive and snorkel team is very knowledgeable, personable and safety conscious.

Thank you to everyone on the Wakatobi team. We would love to return to this paradise for diving/snorkeling and relaxation. It’s a slice of paradise for all divers and snorkelers.”

The Staff is the Best

“We had a truly fantastic stay – this place is great! While the diving is of course incredible, the staff is the best part. The food, rooms and atmosphere are all amazing. Thanks again for all; we hope to visit again!”

The Heartbeat of Wakatobi

“Wakatobi truly cares for its guests, its staff and the environment. The food, the sunsets, the birds and the snorkeling are all incredible, but the staff are the heartbeat of Wakatobi. The boat crew helped me on and off the boats and with the dive/snorkel gear. I couldn’t have managed without them.”

Fell in Love All Over Again

“I am older and have not dove in 30 years. On my visit to Wakatobi I took a refresher course and after a few dives I fell in love with the sport all over again. The Wakatobi dive masters are knowledgeable, helpful and passionate about diving. They quickly brought me up to speed and I logged 25 dives in ten days. The resort is excellent in every respect and the coral is spectacular!  We will definitely return.”

More Than We Hoped For

“We were blown away by the operation and the staff were truly kind, helpful and caring. The diving was more than we had hoped for. We will return for the place, the food, the staff and of course the ocean. Most especially we will return for our dive master.”

Special Touches

“This was my second visit to Wakatobi, and I loved it as much as the first visit. All the special touches – staff knowing our names, towel art, flower decoration, to name a few – make Wakatobi the outstanding place it is.”

An Incredible Snorkel Guide

“The dive team did a great job with handling gear and explaining the dive sites. All 17 dives were unique and interesting. Never a bad dive! We also had an incredible snorkel guide! She is extremely thorough and knowledgeable about the sites and the creatures that live there. The restaurant staff, housekeeping, gardeners, and everyone else behind the scenes did an outstanding job to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The food choices were excellent!”

They Anticipate Your Every Need

“Exceptional service that takes into consideration your every need. The dive guides are fabulous at pointing out life of all kinds from nudibranchs to turtles and eagle rays. If you need help with anything they anticipate your every need. Ask to see specific marine animals and they make herculean efforts to find them for you.”

Wakatobi is So Welcoming

“We have been here twice so far and find that the entire experience at Wakatobi is so welcoming for us. It felt like returning home. The staff, both house and dive are so warm and friendly. The grounds are meticulous. The quality of the food is outstanding and of course the diving is first class. We can’t say enough about the dive boat crew and our dive guide was the finest who we ever dived with. He is so warm and personable, and we can feel his passion for diving and the marine life that he points out.”

Excellent in Every Way

“There’s diving, then there is Wakatobi and the Pelagian. The best liveaboard I’ve been on, and some of the best diving in the world. The staff is knowledgeable, accommodating and excellent in every way.”
