Explore the resort
The resort’s restaurant is located beside the pool and serves a mix of Mediterranean and Indonesian dishes, made from the freshest local, and highest quality imported ingredients. Both buffet and a la carte style dining are provided, with a focus on fresh-caught fish dishes. An open air space, underneath the coconut trees, is the perfect spot for al fresco dining and themed nights. Fresh fish barbecues are served weekly with frequent musical performances. The large saltwater infinity pool overlooks the ocean and provides the perfect spot for cooling off after unwinding on the complimentary beach beds. For further relaxation, guests can visit the traditional spa that offers treatments passed down through generations of Minahasan people and other therapies such as reflexology, Balinese massage and aromatherapy.

Activities such as traditional fishing, snorkelling trips to nearby islands and various trekking excursions can be organised on request.
