Pristine Paradise Dive Resort - Togean Islands, Una Una

Very well located and comfortable. The rooms are basic and functional, with enough space for all your stuff. Some of them have an aircon.

All in all good. It just lacks good water pressure, but it works for such a remote place.

Tolle Unterkunft! Toller, geselliger Vibe. Wir waren bereits am ersten Tag froh im Pristine und nicht im nebenan gelegenen Sanctum gebucht zu haben. Als Bier einmal ausverkauft war, sind wir dahin gegangen. Der französische Besitzer war so unfreundlich, dass wir ohne Bier wieder gegangen sind. Wir hörten von vielen Leuten ähnliche Äusserungen; einige haben nach einigen Nächten ins Pristine gewechselt oder sich lieber hier aufgehalten. Es scheint zudem eine starke Rivalität zwischen den beiden Resorts zu herrschen, was an sich ziemlich schade ist. Tauchen: Wir haben jeweils 6 Tauchgänge mit Sri gemacht und uns dabei sehr wohl und sicher gefühlt. Sie war eine herausragende und extrem erfahrene Tauchlehrerin. Nach den Tauchgängen und am Abend haben wir am Strand gemeinsam etwas getrunken. Es war sehr gemütlich, vielen Dank!

Teilweise sind die Bungallows etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Es wäre ratsam, diese zu unterhalten. Ausserdem hat es Ratten auf der Insel (wofür das Resort selbstverständlich nichts kann). Es wäre aber hilfreich dies den Gästen beim Check in zu kommunizieren, sodass man keine Sachen im Aussenbad lässt und die Türen immer schliesst

Pristine Paradise is without a doubt the best place to stay. The cabins are great and very affordably priced, which includes all three daily meals. Additionally, Aslan made sure that as a vegan, I had delicious and varied food adapted to my dietary needs every single day. So if you’re vegan, this is a place where eating is super easy and enjoyable! I also want to highlight that Srii at the dive center is a fantastic guide. The dives were spectacular (Black Forest was a personal highlight!), and she was extremely patient and helpful during my first dive, which I really appreciated since I was a bit nervous having not dived in four years. Honestly, all the staff are incredibly friendly and go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable. A special shout-out to Aslan for his hospitality—his laugh is contagious, and we had some very interesting conversations. He will quickly solve any issue that comes up. The volcano excursion is also completely worth it! The motorbike ride is so much fun, and the volcano itself is mind-blowing—it feels just like Jurassic Park. I only have lovely things to say about this place, and I was so sad to leave. Sampai jumpa lagi!

The underwater world is beautiful. If you only want to dive or snorkel, this could be very worthwhile for you. The resort is reasonably acceptable for the price (deluxe 😉). Don't expect much, and you might not be disappointed.

Unfortunately, the beaches here on Una Una are also very trashy. You don't need to invest in such a long journey for the island scenery and beaches. The cooking uses a lot of convenience products: instant noodles, chicken nuggets, and fries. No fish(!) For breakfast, only pancakes, no rice, and no eggs. Fins and masks for snorkeling are offered on the website, but not on-site. Therefore, you must bring your own equipment if you aren't diving.
