The dining room gets 5 gold stars! We will be back soon.

“We had a fabulous time! The best dive resort we have ever stayed in. The dive team was terrific. The reef was healthy and abundant!
“The dining room staff could not have been more welcoming and attentive. The dining room gets 5 gold stars! Our room always clean, towel animals really fun!
We will back soon. Life is too short to only visit Wakatobi once!”

Wakatobi exceeded our expectations

“Wakatobi exceeded our expectations on land, above and below the water. Super impressed with the friendliness and attention to detail of all Wakatobi staff and crew. From our guest experience representative, Linda, in making the booking process so easy to the assistance on arrival at Denpasar and all the way through to the smile and attention of the dive staff and crew on the magnificent dive boats. Our kids loved it!” Anja & Glenn Attrill

Overall, this was a 5-stars experience.

“Once again, we have greatly enjoyed our stay with you. Every aspect of our stay was so enjoyable. Your F&B staff are amazing; they made every meal enjoyable and cooked us some special dishes. Your SPA staff are just brilliant, so good and very caring. The boat crew were very caring and looked after us. Our dive guide was just perfect. She took great care of us, was very knowable, and tailored the dives to our abilities and our interests. Overall, this was a 5 stars experience. Thank You.”

We were spoiled with pristine reefs

“What a treat! We were spoiled with pristine reefs offering all of the best for macro-diving. Countless encounters with cuttlefishes, turtles, pygmy seahorses, crocodile fishes, nudibranchs, shrimps, lobsters and I could go on. The service was excellent, always accommodating with friendliness and smiles.”

Pelagian is not to be missed! We’re already planning our next trip.

“Our week on the Pelagian was a trip of a lifetime! Diving remote reefs where no other boats go on pristine reefs filled with life. Amazing diving, amazing boat, amazing crew, amazing food!
“The boat is beautiful and set up well for diving. The crew really “makes the magic happen”. Everything runs like clockwork; every effort is made to ensure each guest feels special and has the highest quality dive experience.
“The diving – what to say? It completely exceeded our expectations. The sites were different and varied and we were lucky enough to be able to include muck diving to our itinerary. We did not skip one dive!
What could be better! Pelagian is not to be missed! We are already planning our next trip.”

No detail was overlooked!

“This was top class service. From all the staff knowing our names immediately to the wet hot towel after the dives – no detail was overlooked!  The food was fantastic. We loved watching the sunset at the jetty bar! Oh, and the Villa Shelly sign above our door was a nice surprise and a great idea! This place and staff were the best!”

We were as happy as we were on our 1st and 2nd stay!

“This has been our third visit here in Wakatobi and we were as happy as we were on our 1st and 2nd stay! The service is outstanding (Not seen anything like it!). The food is amazing and delicious! Our bungalow felt like home (everything was just perfect!). We’re so happy the resort avoids using plastic-that is the way to go! The staff are friendly, very helpful and attentive (we still can’t believe how everybody remembers the guest’s names!).
“Special thanks to our snorkeling guide who was so attentive, each and every snorkeling trip was so interesting and educational. We loved it! The Spa ladies made our stay pleasant with all the wonderful and relaxing treatments.”

Wakatobi is the only dive location we’ve ever wanted to return to.

“This was our second visit. Wakatobi is the only dive location we’ve ever wanted to return to. And the reefs did not disappoint this trip either. We were amazed all the staff recognized us from the moment we arrived! The little things make a big difference: hot mint towels, outdoor showers, different towel sculptures each day, raking the sand into designs each day, and the list goes on. Wakatobi is truly a very special place!”

All the little details and surprise extras make you feel like royalty.

“Our dive guide was incredible! She was so patient and friendly, and protective of the reef. She found all sorts of amazing critters and made sure everyone had a chance to see it and know its species name and other details about it.
“All the little details and surprise extras make you feel like royalty.
“Wakatobi is hands down the best resort and reef system we have ever been to!”

The best food we have ever had in a resort!

“Everything was perfect, there is nothing to improve at all. The entire organization is amazing (assistance at airport arrival, departure to Wakatobi, introduction of bungalow and resort, etc.). The service is outstnading. All the staff in all areas are lovely, helpful, and attentive. The restaurant/food is also outstanding. The best food we have ever had in a resort! And so is the whole staff at the restaurant.
“The organization of the daily snorkeling/diving trips was perfect. We could not imagine a better guide! He was always attentive, adapting to everybody’s personal needs; helpful, funny, and bringing in the greatest mood with a lot of information.
“It is hard to find words about how perfect everything was from A to Z. The entire staff is amazing in every moment – and they all seem to be happy to be working here! Congratulations to the management!”

above and beyond expectations!

“It is hard to comment on total perfection! Awesome, brilliant, badass, beyond awe-inspiring. The diving and crew of Pelagian were above and beyond expectations! Don’t change a thing on Pelagian-or at the Resort!”

I am coming back.

“Pelagian is a one of a kind of experience. The crew did 100% for us. Diving, food, entertainment, sensing our need – this is the highest quality I have ever experienced. The boat is comfortable, clean, and very spacious. We always had hot water, and our gear was cleaned and ready for the next dive. Please keep the good job. I am coming back. Thank you.”
