A very nice resort on a beautiful island north of North Sulawesi! Spacious, clean bungalows, very good food, very courteous staff, paradisiacal beach, beautiful pool, a spa (wonderful, inexpensive massages!), a professional diving center, wonderful dives with the very experienced guide Anis.
There is a resort and 2 fishing villages on the island. If you are looking for peace and quiet in paradise, you will find it there.

Gangga Island Diving Resort is a great place for divers! Dive guides are highly trained and know the sites inside out. They help you find the smallest creatures, which are ideal for video and photography.
The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff is wonderful.

Sustainability
The resort is active at the highest level when it comes to sustainability.
A very large system with solar panels and storage batteries supplies the entire resort with electricity day and night. There are also diesel generators as a backup. However, they are only activated if the sun does not shine for several days in a row.
The resort also has its own garden for fruit and vegetables.
Waste disposal is also well organized. Waste washed up in the sea, especially plastic, is collected and sorted. Usable waste is recycled. The remaining waste is periodically taken to Manado for further treatment.

What does this mean for us travelers?
We no longer have an excuse to avoid sustainable vacations and diving trips. It is up to US to plan our vacations sustainably. Gangga Island Diving Resort shows us how it's done!

Unfortunately, some of the domestic flights were postponed and so we made a 3-day stopover on Gangga Island.
This is where we started our love affair with Indonesia over 25 years ago.
We have already visited Gangga several times and can only recommend it.
The staff, the bungalows, the food and the service are great. Not to mention the spa.
As it was only a stopover for us, we didn't dive and spent 2 days being pampered in the spa.
Definitely worth a visit!

Staff at the hotel and Taucbasis very friendly and helpful. Excellent cuisine. As there were few guests at the time, there was no buffet but an "à la carte" selection.

The meals were good.
It is a pity that the selection of Indonesian dishes (mainly European cuisine) and especially local fruits (only pineapple, papaya and pitaya were offered) was not varied.

The hotel is very well managed. All the staff are super nice! They really do everything to make you feel comfortable. We were really enthusiastic about the people who work here. As for the feel-good factor, we can say it doesn't get any better than this.
The rooms are absolutely fine, but brighter lighting would be good.
When it came to food, we expressed the wish that we would like local cuisine and not European. The wish was promptly fulfilled to our complete satisfaction. The food was really excellent!
As already mentioned, the staff is CLASS! We still think of the barbecue evening where we were spoiled by the staff with great live music and culinary.
The hotel complex is quite extensive and very well maintained. A few small things at the pool should be repaired (tiles). We found it very nice.
Only minus point, if you want to swim in the sea, you need a lot of luck with the tides and currents. Basically you can not go swimming in the open sea!!!

We said goodbye in the end really heavy heart from there and can definitely recommend the resort.

Remark:
Unfortunately, the topic of plastic does not let you go here. Due to the current conditions around the islands, you can experience live how much dirt floats in our seas. This is not a criticism of the hotel, because they have their own environmental concepts. It should be understood as a call to all of us to be very sensitive here. Thank you.

Hallo Sabine und Manfred,
vielen Dank für diese ausführliche Beschreibung.
Bedauerlich ist wirklich, dass dort das Thema Plastik häufig noch eine große Rolle spielt.
Danke

We were only about eight guests, which was a bit strange in the bigger resort. But the service was great. Also here they take care of the ecology. On the whole it is more conventional than Raja4Divers.

We were thrilled from the first moment.
The warm welcome from the manager and a receptionist can't top anything. That's the way it should be and we immediately felt welcome and at home. The bungalow was right at the beach and close to the pool. The furnishing was luxury and nothing was missing. The food was super delicious and all wishes were fulfilled. Cleanliness and friendliness are the top priorities here. We are both from the hotel business and we both appreciated the professionalism and the cordiality of everyone. There we can still learn something!!!!!
The dives were also very very great.
Varied and professionally guided.
Here we also took the wishes of the diving guests into consideration and the dives were also carried out for only 1 person. All in all we had a hard time saying goodbye to Gangga Island and we will come back again with pleasure!!!!
