The Kusu Island Resort and its team leave nothing to be desired. The room and everything around it is simply magnificent. With great attention to detail. The best service we have ever had. The food is simply top class - nothing more needs to be said. Christian and Barbara are two people with their hearts in the right place. You just have to love them and the whole team. The underwater world is simply indescribable and full of life. There is so much to discover. Conclusion from our trip...despite the long journey, we will definitely be back!

Snorkeling on the house reef is only possible at times due to the strong current. You should bear this in mind.

Very beautiful, well-kept complex right on the water and surrounded by tropical jungle. Bungalows built entirely from natural materials and clean down to the smallest detail. Excellent service in all areas. The food was varied and very, very tasty. All in all, very close to "perfect" ;-)

Barbara and Chris have made a dream come true here and you can tell how passionate they are about Kusu Island Resort. Beautiful bungalows in which many "beach finds" have been incorporated in an imaginative way. Great. They are available around the clock and always have an open ear for guests' wishes. You have to be aware that you are here to dive and relax! Excursions are offered, but we didn't go on them - our goal was just to relax and dive. Massages are offered, these are done in the bungalow or on the terrace - wonderful. The food is tasty - absolutely sufficient (never hungry) and here too, Barbara caters to your wishes. You have to be aware that you are a long way out on an island and everything has to be brought in by boat. We really enjoyed our stay, we left relaxed and totally refreshed after 11 nights (unfortunately). Many thanks to all the good people who were always attentive and helpful. Thank you!

furnished. The food is always freshly prepared. The staff are very friendly.
Barbara and Christian are very friendly.
If the journey wasn't so long, we would certainly fly to Kusu more often.

It is a beautiful place to relax and dive. The Andean dive sites were always full of life. There were no divers there apart from us. We really enjoyed that. What we didn't like so much. We have never seen so much garbage in the water.

Simply stunning.........

Room: Our confirmation said room no. 4, the KUSU link said no. 5 and we got room 8 (without a ladder to the water). We were later able to change to room 4. But it's funny, because you google and look forward to your room with access to the water.
Food: Delicious, we didn't mind that there is no buffet and you always have to decide at the previous meal what you want to eat at the next meal.
Service: nothing to complain about
Dive center: actually very good BUT: the dive guide was always at least 50 meters away. He showed us something exactly 3 times. Even after several requests to stay closer to us, his only guests, it didn't work. A great pity - especially for photographers.
Dive sites: actually very beautiful, but during our vacation time, many sites were not accessible at all due to the current and the visibility (due to all the rain) was rather average.

This was our second time at the Kusu Resort and everything was perfect again. The villas are a dream. You are well looked after by everyone.
A third time is not out of the question ????.

A paradise.
Very big thanks to Barbara, Christian and the whole team of KUSU.
We will come again, I promise :-)

Christian and Barbara have created a wonderful little world in this paradise, you just have to like it. They have a soft spot for all the details, are always concerned about you and their creativity, even in the kitchen, simply leaves nothing to be desired. There was nothing that we did not like - we lived like "God in France". Just be and enjoy what is. Unforgettable!!!

The Kusu Island Resort (currently 8 guest villas) offers 100% diving pleasure and absolute relaxation. We had already "arrived" after a short time and felt very comfortable.

The villas are very quiet and have direct access to the sea via a large terrace - the view from the bed of the rising sun is magnificent.

The equipment is very functional with a lot of attention to detail and woodwork. The beautiful bathroom has a warm (open-air) outdoor shower.

Barbara and Christian have created a wonderful retreat - they are always present and dedicated to the well-being of the guests.

The staff is very nice, helpful and friendly - the service is TOP (we want to explicitly include the invisible staff in the background).

The freshly prepared food is Indonesian influenced (complemented by Barbara un Austrian moments like a very tasty Kaiserschmarrn), varied and very tasty. The lunch and dinner consists of 4 courses and the choice is vegetarian dish, fish, chicken ode beef. The full board also includes a snack and fresh fruit, which is served after the first dive, and there are delicious cakes or cookies in the afternoon.

The diving is well organized in small groups (max 4 pers/guide) and the Indonesian guides are competent and confident (above and below water).

Every day different dive sites are visited (driving time max. 30 min). The selection of the spots is done according to the expressed wishes and current conditions. The dive sites are very varied with impressive coral diversity and abundance of fish - even 'macro fans' get their money's worth.

The Kusu Island Resort can be recommended without reservation!

The diving operation must be better organized. Floor planking in the area of the diving center in indisputably bad condition.

All buildings are new and very beautiful. The furnishings are functional. Because of the own sawmill (rarely heard) and good craftsmen was possible own very elegant architecture. Both the villas and the restaurant are simply beautiful.

Being very tall, our table was too low for the chairs. Overnight, a skilled carpenter conjured up trestles to raise the table higher. Incredible - an unexpected addition to the meal.

The meals are very tasty, varied and diverse. The emphasis is on Indonesian cuisine with hints of Austrian cooking. - Kaiserschmarrn is just delicious. The next meal is announced after the previous meal. Only one table was given a menu. There are fish, chicken, beef and a vegetarian meal to choose from. Unfortunately, the tuna was served only cooked (for safety reasons). (The second resort on Kusu is also supposed to have sashimi and smoked raw tuna).

The stairs from the balcony of the villas to the sea have no handrail. The tiles in the bathroom are not slip-resistant.

In the evenings, fish waste is dumped in the sea next to the restaurant to the delight of blacktip reef sharks.

The resort does not have an alcohol license, so no cocktails are offered despite the announcement on the Internet. Ingredients to the mocktails are missing from time to time. Self-brought alcoholic beverages are processed for cocktails. There is, however, beer.

The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Extras must be paid for on the spot. There is no card payment. Management does not want payment in advance. (We had previously agreed this with the German representative.) Bank transfers to a European account are possible.

One felt after a short time arrived and very comfortable.
The food was very good and varied.
The kitchen (and Barbara) whipped up delicious cakes and cookies every day.
Greetings to Chelin, Hen and our guide Alfian.

Back from Kusu Island we want to thank Christian, Babara very much for the
care on site. Of course it is a bit difficult to come to you, but it is the hammer. From the bed the view of the sea, very varied food, extra wishes are fulfilled, I think of the delicious birthday cake, the whole team does a great job. We can only recommend Kusu Island. Go there before it is no longer an insider tip!

I have never met a resort that has such an optimal atmosphere!
Barbara and Christian have built in years of work with much effort and taste a resort that was (structurally) on the one hand very precisely crafted from tropical wood (no-na-net) solid and then rounded off with driftwood accents targeted.
In addition, both are "busting a hump" to care for the guests in a loving family way. And Barbara also provides surprises in the kitchen with creative local and fusion cuisine each 3-4 menus to choose from, 5x meals/snacks daily.
Diving in small groups (max 4 pax/guide), every day somewhere else.
The coral variety is enormous, also the fish variety; only big fish are few - unfortunately (still?) no protected area. Current and plankton rich, but you can always find a quiet spot if you want.

Thanks again to Barbara and Christian for the personal attention throughout our stay and all the info.
Great help with our arrival when a flight was cancelled and we missed the flight that goes only twice a week. A hotel for the stopover and a ferry connection with pickup directly at the ferry was organized for us free of charge.

The Kusu Island Resort currently consists of 8 guest villas, the dive center and the restaurant. The villas are about 72sqm in size and fantastically furnished, respectively also with a dreamlike location. Very quiet and private. A maximum of double occupancy is possible. The beautiful bathroom has a warm outdoor shower. Air conditioning in the villa works great. Cell phone reception is a bit difficult on the island. There is a free data volume of 2GB per week per villa on the wifi network. However, this also works mainly in the restaurant.
Full board includes breakfast, lunch and dinner. After the 1st dive a snack and fresh fruit is served and in the afternoon there is again coffee and cake. Lunch and dinner always consist of 4 courses. The meals are freshly prepared and taste excellent. There is always a choice of vegetarian, fish or chicken/beef. Water, tea, coffee are included in the full board. Coke, Fanta, Sprite or beer must be paid extra. Here the costs are pleasantly low. As alcoholic beverages was to get at our time only a beer, because the North Moluccas are strictly Muslim.

Barbara and Christian (the two owners of Kusu Island Resort) have really created something extraordinary here. Through their warm and open manner, one immediately felt very comfortable and at home. All staff members are very friendly and helpful and made our vacation unforgettable.
