Fantastic people and great diving”

I just spent 4 magical days at Thalassa. The owner Simone built a wonderful community around a team that really goes above and beyond for their guests. They say you come as guests and leave as friends and it's absolutely true. The dive masters and instructors are very professional (Fendy is awesome!) and the closet national park offers fantastic diving and snorkeling. Super easy to get to, too. I'll be back!

Very nice view on the ocean. Ideal for divers”

Basic accommodation. Food to be discussed.... Cleanliness of the swimming pool to be discussed... Nevertheless the panorama is simply great and also the view from the bungalow entirely set into the "jungle" was nice and picturesque. The staff is very very friendly and it is easy to get together in a simple and nice atmosphere. The diving is great.

Hi Antonio, thanks for taking the time to review our resort. The majority of our guests find our food quite tasty, so I'm unsure what we could have done better. Our cleaning staff has been informed about the pool — we apologize for any discomofrt you might have experienced. Thank you and we do hope to welcome you again!

Helpful & friendly staff, Beautifull unpretencious setting, Diving in an Aquarium

Indonesia is a friendly place, but Manado was just super. The resort is tucked away north east of the town, and with easy access to numerous diving sites. Simone and Lilliane are fabulous hosts with a lot of local experience. The local team likewise is generous and helpful always, and a credit to the Manadonese culture. That's before getting the water, and that is something else - Im reluctant to write this as and don't want to see the place overrun - Hati-Hati Awas - Trevor Larbey

No beach nice pool

far away from Manado, must go by taxi. Thalassa is a nice place with Simone and her staff making you feel confortable at all times. Peaceful atmosphere,nice pool to relax, super friendly staff and of course world class diving. the food is really nice they try to make you know the local cuisine, fresh pancakes for breakfast and lunch/dinner was every time different. The room we stayed in was basic, It had a big double bed with mosquito net (and also electric mosquito devices are provided), and a bathroom with hot shower. This a place mostly for divers, you can walk to the villages around that are nice.

Great resort for diving or snorkeling”

Wonderful staff , fantastic diving , very nice pool

We had a very pleasant stay at Thalassa. Staff is genuinly friendly and very helpfull and attentive. This is a great place for divers or snorkelers. Diving at the house reef offers many macro surprises. Only 25 minutes from Bunaken Island National Park, which is great for diving. The Thalassa dive staff are all incredible dive guides and find the tiniest creatures. Bungalow was very large with airco, a nice patio with sea view, located in a beautiful large garden. The resort has a nice large pool. There is no beach.

コロナで自由に出られなくなってから今まで、本当に長かった! そして、この度2度目に訪れたこのリゾートは、以前の場所から移りましたが、むしろ以前よりも過ごしやすくなっておりました。 部屋もごはんも何よりもスタッフは変わらず最高、 来年も行く予定です。 ただ、ヨーロッパ、特にオランダからのダイバーが多いので、普通の日本人の多いリゾートとは少し雰囲気は 違うかもです。でも、それもまた楽し、です。
