Siladen Resort & Spa

Incredible food Professionalism and smiling faces of staff Great location for diving

You cant go wrong at Siladen Resort

This resort has my 5 star + rating at absolutely every aspect: housing, beds, aircon, garden, beach, dive shop and equipment, spa***, restaurant and food***, diving and snorkelling boats and service***, bar... Service personnel are abundant are all very friendly and helpful. The resort brings and train local people to a very professional level, all speak clear English! Any request is addressed with the lightning speed but at the same time service it is NOT at all overbearing. The chef can satisfy demanding customers from the megapolis and it is surprising to find this quality in such remote location, should I mention great produce supply. Dive boats are very comfortable, and capable of coming so close to the shore that you can step directly from the sand to the boat. Diving and snorkelling personnel taking care of you as parents care about the newborn baby. !!!!A hot aromatherapy towel after every dive!!! hot and cold drinks snacks fruits on the boat, dry shelves for your phones and cameras, individual baskets for equipment. Dive personnel take 100% care of your equipment! !!!After diving they wash and dry your equipment wetsuits etc.!!!! I have seen great resorts, liveaboards which are special at sum aspects but never seen service that is impacable at everything!!!! Location is great: only an hour from the airport!!! but such short distance make the weather conditions on the island much better then in Manado - we were at the off season time, Manado had thunderstorms all the time but at Siladen it was great. I was with two kids and felt completely safe in open water, my son got several introdives safely (walldiving!). There are so many turtles!!!!!!!!

It was difficult find any. Internet in the room is sometimes not good but at the pool bar is ok. It could be an issue if you are rely on internet business during the stay.

Can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience at Siladen. From the amazing reefs to the truly delicious food to the warm staff everything was top notch. Ana and Marco were gracious hosts who went out of the way to make us feel extra special. Barefoot luxury at its finest.

Everthing Kind staff knowing everyone’s name An efficient management team Wonderful spa and delicious food changing everyday Experienced dive master who made me confident during my PADI open water course

For people sleeping light, beach villa may be a better choice (no need to share the wall with the neighbor which is the case for my garden villa)

Nice room. Wonderful staff, especially Pak Fanny the dive guide.

No portable Bluetooth speaker in villa.

Beautiful little resort with great diving, food, staff and comfort. Staff went out of their way to pick us up in Manado in the middle of the night after multiple flight delays (beware of Lion Air; Garuda may be more reliable from Bali). We were so grateful that the staff left food and juice for us after our long travels - we were hungry at 3:30AM! Dive staff and diving and snorkeling were incredible. Food was very good. A/C worked well and there’s a fresh hot and cold drinking water machine in the room. Also went on a jungle excursion in Sulawesi which was a great tour the last day before we flew home. Can’t say enough good things about Siladen Resort. Would love to return one day.

Nothing

First class buffet of Asian and European foods next to the beach. Friendly first name - personal service.

Nothing. Everything was perfect.

everything!! snorkeling and diving spot; food; accommodation (villa in the beach with your private area); small resort;

nothing. we loved e everything!

The food was uniformly excellent with great variety and careful preparation. The managers and staff were outstanding. Diving was spectacular and the guides highly skilled. The most meaningful aspect was the attention given by the managers, Ana and Miguel and Daniel and Melania, to myself as a solo traveler. They made me feel most welcome and like a part of the team. Unforgettable.

It is well known that the WiFi signals are not strong and improvement would be good, but it's a relatively minor concern.
