When not diving or relaxing by the pool, guests may enjoy relaxing or reading in the Minahasan style long house, where tea, coffee and snacks are always available.

As a commitment to conserve the nature, Bunaken Oasis is the first resort on the island to install water makers complete with ultra-violet water treatment, providing drinking water all around the resort. No more single use plastic bottles. In addition to the water dispensers in the cottages, all the public areas are equipped with hot and cold water dispensers, and where guests may re-fill their drinking bottles.

The Dive Centre

Their fleet of dive boats comprises several traditionally-styled wooden boats, complete with fresh water showers, toilet, and a sun bathing deck; and a fiber-glass 17.5m catamaran with the additional benefit of catering facilities. The catamaran is ideal for larger groups, or for visiting more distant dive sites, such as Bangka and Gangga islands. Tailored diving trips are available upon request. Free Nitrox is privileged to those qualified to dive with enriched-air.
