Why 3 stars for the dive sites?
When I was in Maratua for the first time 17 years ago, we were the only dive boat on the atoll far and wide. Two years ago, boats from other resorts occasionally appeared at Big Fish Country, but it was relatively easy to avoid them.
This year, I counted 16 other boats with exclusively Chinese divers at the BFC alone. These people ignored all diving rules and lacked any (diving) decency. They are about to completely destroy the entire region in just three or four years and make it undiveable and unvisitable for diving enthusiasts. The few European providers are seemingly powerless in the face of this. The Indonesians are going along with the game because they are hoping for large tax revenues and because they are corrupt.
Raja Ampat is apparently facing the same collapse. The Chinese are said to be building a second Bali in Raja Ampat, including mass tourism.
Dive sites are also being discounted because some of them have been damaged by dynamite fishing - even since corona.
Divers of all countries unite!

Beautiful resort and island. When diving you can see big fish as well as small stuff. The accommodation was very nice in Indonesian style.

A hidden gem in the Maratua Atoll - that's the Nabucco Island Resort, which I had the pleasure of visiting for five unforgettable days in April. Despite the rather compact size of the island, there was an amazing variety of wildlife to discover. Whether it was monitor lizards roaming ponderously through the undergrowth, nimble lizards bathing in the sun's rays, curious crabs along the beaches, majestic kingfishers or eagles circling high above the treetops - the island offered new, fascinating scenes of an untouched natural paradise every day.
The diving experience was nothing short of extraordinary, with each dive providing exciting discoveries and memories. The "Big Fish Country" dive site in particular lived up to its name in the most spectacular way, offering an underwater panorama of large fish and colorful corals that would leave even experienced divers in awe.
If you appreciate seclusion and want to immerse yourself in the beauty of natural surroundings, Nabucco Island Resort is the place for you. It is a retreat for people who want to experience the wonders of nature in peace and quiet. Thus, the stay combines relaxing luxury with rustic charm without compromising the splendor of the environment.
I can highly recommend a stay at Nabucco Island Resort and am convinced that it will enchant any nature and diving enthusiast. A place of peace, relaxation and natural richness where I have enjoyed spending my most precious vacation moments.

Very nice little island with great service.
Good breakfast in the morning and a varied 4-course menu in the evening. All wishes are fulfilled immediately. Great and quiet vacation spot. Only the internet is not always available, but that doesn't bother us. After all, you are on vacation.

It was a great week, the crew is very friendly and attentive. Friska and Martin go to great lengths, the island is small but very well maintained with lots of orchids and huge coconut palms.

Garden bungalow (single bungalow) have nice quiet location, a bit dark but nice, what might have been missing is a kettle with tea/coffee preparation but you get everything and at any time at the bar or restaurant, staff super, friendly and nice especially. Martin and his wife Friska the two owners are super nice, always join the guests, eat together with the guests at one table, Martin asked every guest if everything is ok, discusses and organizes the next diving day with the guests, also responds individually to wishes and goes diving personally with the guests, as does Friska. We usually had him as our dive guide and were almost always diving alone with him, with a maximum of four people. You can also decide the dive times yourself, if you only want to go diving at 3pm or 10am, that's no problem. If the dive sites are only a few minutes away, you can come back to the resort straight away after 1 dive, the food was always very tasty and sufficient, always beautifully decorated, great praise to the chef and his team

The resort is very well maintained. The food is outstandingly good!!! The chef is just top notch! The staff is also super friendly and very helpful. The accommodations are without superfluous luxury and are cleaned every day. Perfectly adequate for the vacation. The resort also has a photo room for the professional underwater photographers. Overall, the resort is highly recommended for a diving vacation!

All people on the island have tried to give us guests the best: family, friendly, professional. A paradise on earth and great dive sites!
Too bad that a few sppts have been affected by dynamite fishing.
