You’ll have a great time, but don’t take our word for it…

“Pelagian is a week of service and comfort at its finest. A big thank you to the crew. It was a great time on Pelagian. We would love to come back.”

“We have had a wonderful stay at Wakatobi and have enjoyed the luxurious rooms, fine food and above all, the warm and friendly staff. We have been thoroughly spoiled from the moment we set foot on the resort. Every effort was taken to make our stay comfortable and memorable.
“The diving exceeded all expectations! We had calm seas, clear water, great visibility, and fantastic reefs to explore. Our experience was enhanced by an attentive boat crew on Waka IV (loved the hot towels handed out after each dive!) and most importantly, our dive guide, who made each dive unique and highly informative. From pre-dive briefing to pointing out hard to see marine creatures to adjusting our dive gear as required, she made our dive experience truly special. For this, we are deeply grateful.
“From the minute to the magnificent, the reefs around Wakatobi Dive Resort continued to surprise, delight, enthrall and inspire. No two dives were the same. May the reef continue to flourish and be life sustaining!”

“This was my fourth visit, so I must love it here! Your attention to detail is amazing, nothing is too much trouble. My dive guide was just the best! So kind, helpful and very knowledgeable regarding all the fish life. Thank you for another lovely holiday. I will return again one day.”

“It was a great holiday for us. Special thanks to the Chef, Ibram, Adhi and all the staff. We will be back!”

“Wakatobi is truly the best. From the restaurant, dive support/crew, and the group on the grounds and at the jetty – all were wonderful. Daily service in the bungalow was exceptional. Love the towel creations. Thank you for an amazing week of great food, great diving, and great hospitality!! This was our first time and we will be back!“  

“The dive guides were excellent. Kudos to our guide for his patience and support (I am a novice diver). We had a great stay on Pelagian and at the Resort. Thank you for a great vacation. We are already planning our return trip!”

“An excellent place to snorkel or scuba – worth the travel. A resort well managed with superb friendliness and attention to detail. From the top management to the newest hire, a wonderful experience. This is top to bottom excellence.”

“We had an amazing time on Pelagian. The boat & crew were fantastic. Everything worked well and everything went very smoothly.
“I am a beginner diver and felt very well cared for by the dive masters. Our divemaster was great about giving me pointers and building my confidence. The food was amazing. It was really nice to be on a boat that allowed opportunity to really bond with the other divers. Loved the attention to details on Pelagian, and the cabins were well appointed and very clean and comfortable.”

“Our dive guide was amazing. This was our third trip to Wakatobi and we have done multiple other dive trips around the world and by far, he is the best dive guide we have ever had. It’s a while since we dived, and he instilled confidence in us immediately. He is also amazing in finding critters, no matter how small. We have already booked 2023 and 2024.
“We also want to make mention of the dining staff. Thank you so much. My dietary needs are not just a preference, but a requirement, and for this I was very grateful for the attention from the restaurant team. Again, our vacation was memorable! Thank you!”

“Pelagian is most comfortable for divers, underwater photographers and for snorkeling. A 5-star Michelin chef. Perfect location, very attentive crew, and most professional dive masters.”

“A heartfelt thank you to everyone for this unique experience!  Everyone goes out of their way to make this a true paradise. Wakatobi Resort has been fantastic, exciting, relaxing & super-friendly. We are truly sad to have to leave this place and everyone who has made it special.
“Delicious food in a great variety. A well organized and very knowledgeable dive operation. A unique underwater world: special thanks to Lorenz and his concept to help protecting this world. All the staff were friendly and outgoing each day. The surroundings were perfect, very well-maintained rooms and gardens. We would like to shine a light on our guide, who not only conducts the perfect dives but also knows how to create a relaxing and fun atmosphere. He is a true asset.”

“From start to finish, we have both had an incredible time. The staff have all been super friendly and professional the whole time we were here. As a non-diver (Ingrid) I was looked after and kept entertained with guided tours, which were both fun and educational. My tour guide was superb and has a vast knowledge of the local villages. The massage therapists were amazing, and I had some of the best massages I have ever had.
“We would both like to say a huge thank you to everyone for their kindness and hospitality. Paul would like to thank his dive guide, as she was incredible.”

“Another fantastic experience! Already started the booking process for our 3rd visit. Thank you to all at Wakatobi – You are amazing!”

“Having had such memorable experience both on the Pelagian and at the resort, we had planned to return as soon as we could, but Covid got in the way.
“We expected to love our time here during this visit and we certainly did! We have already started planning our next visit when we will both be celebrating significant birthdays. Just can’t get enough of this place-heaven on earth!”

It was wonderful to visit once again. The staff, from the dive guides, boat crews, office staff, dining staff and to the housekeeping team – everyone, without fail, makes the experience superlative. Excellent service. All our needs were met with many addressed that were above and beyond. All the creature comforts were considered.
Our dive guide is a treasure. No one could be more enthusiastic, more helpful, or considerate. She is a star on your staff.
