Jack BatemanWe stayed in several places across Indonesia and the Togian Islands, and Bahia Tomini was our highlight. I work in hospitality myself, knowing the effort it takes to try and create something special and what Kike and Eva have built here is really exceptional, and it cannot be understated how special it is. Not just because of the physical location - 4 charming bungalows nestled in a private bay - but because of the personal character they add to it. So much love has gone into this place, their home, and that warmth extends to the staff and you as a guest who gets to be a part of that Family in their homestay style retreat set up at Bahia. The bungalows are very cozy and charming, you feel right at home and 24/7 solar powered electricity, running water and WiFi add to that comfortable feeling. The food another highlight, and a passion of Kike and Eva. We got spoiled with a variety of fantastic Indonesian lunches and home cooked western style dinners. Everything was delicious! What stayed with us most, was seeing two people living their passions. Kike would say that this wasn’t really work for him — he did it all for fun. Whether cooking, guiding or hosting, you could see that. Eva brings the same care to her animals, planting and gardens, both on land and through her coral gardening on the house reef. They’ve found a way to build their lives around what they love, and witnessing and sharing that with them was inspiring. Beautiful place, incredible food, great snorkeling and two wonderful hosts that feel like Family. We’ll remember Bahia Tomini, Kike, Eva and the team as a very special place for us. Thanks so much to everyone....we hope we get the chance to be back one day! Jack & Emily xxPosted on Google
Gs BKTWe had a stay that, although too short, was unforgettable. Let's talk about the location first. The setting is perfect for both scuba diving and snorkeling enthusiasts. The view is paradise-like while retaining a wonderfully wild feel. The bungalows do not ruin the landscape at all, quite the opposite. It is a completely authentic place with charming, creative, and genuine decor. The activities are very well organized. Whenever possible, the staff accompanies you, and the outing becomes magical. Eva and Kike (or Evita) share their knowledge, and the experience is greatly enriched by their advice and expertise. The entire team is incredible, overflowing with kindness, warmth, and attention. Eva and Kike are fantastic hosts, far beyond anything we've ever experienced anywhere else. They have turned this place into a sanctuary of love, they give everything they can to the local community and treat their staff like family. Every guest is welcomed with love into this family to help it grow even bigger. Beyond their immense kindness, Kike and Eva are intelligent, passionate about the living world, and deeply generous in sharing their knowledge. And of course, let's talk about the food! What can I say... If I were to say I have never eaten this well anywhere else in my life, it might sound exaggerated, and yet... If I could give it 6 stars, I would. Every single meal is extraordinary, filled with flavors and creativity in every dish. We will return without hesitation, and for much longer next time. Iki and Edo, we promise we'll get better at ping-pong!Posted on Google
Oli ValleWhere do I start? This place exceeded all our expectations and they were sky high. We’d been looking forward to staying in the Togian Islands, the island of Malenge and Bahia Tomini for months and we were not disappointed. A beautiful and idyllic location with delicious food, amazing wildlife and world class snorkelling on your doorstep. What really makes special though, is the staff. Everyone was so kind, helpful and caring. We loved our bungalow and were lucky enough to have the one with the terrace so you can see baby stingrays and reef sharks every day. We even got to feed the sharks with left over fish a number of times as well as a few snowflake moray eels that hide in the rocks. Rather shy but fascinating coconut crabs live in the rocks and cliff edge outside as well as the local babirusa (wild tusked boar) called Nicki who came to say hello to us a few times on the beach. The snorkelling excursions were well planned and fun plus the local sites are teaming with fish and sea life. Amazing coral! The whole team are more like a family and it was lovely that you feel like a small part of that when you visit. I love Kike and Eva’s passion for nature and the conservation of the local area. I feel sooooo privileged to have spent an incredible 7 nights there. They even did a special evening with some serenading and singing to celebrate our honeymoon. I hope that we get to come and experience this place again in the not too distant. It was hard to say goodbye. Keep up the good work Kike, Eva and the rest of the team. You’re all awesome! Thanks, Oli and Emily ❤️Posted on Google
Boris MittermeierEin kleines Paradies bei dem keine Wünsche offen bleiben. Sensationelles, abwechslungsreiches Essen, sehr stilvoll eingerichtete Bungalows und überaus freundliches und hilfsbereites Staff. Zudem sehr auf Müllvermeidung und Schutz der Korallen und Natur konzentriert. Besser geht’s nicht 👌😊🌴Posted on Google
David LMNo pudimos estar más contentos. Bahia Tomini es un lugar de ensueño, el trato, limpieza, comida, servicios... Kike y Eva y todo su magnífico staff no pueden ser más atentos en todo momento. Las excursiones impresionantes. Están contigo en todo momento haciendo snorkel o lo que haga falta para mostrarte todo en primera mano. Y la guinda del pastel fue ver la final del mundial, ganando España, con Kike en Malengue... no lo olvidaremos jamás! Nunca solemos repetir hoteles, porque nos gusta ver otros sitios, pero aquí repetiremos seguro. Gracias!Posted on Google
Marta GenoveseHo soggiornato a Bahia Tomini con il mio compagno e nostro figlio di 3 anni e sono felice di poter condividere questa bellissima esperienza consigliandomi a tutti! Baia Tomini è un luogo magico dove la natura selvaggia incontra l'ospitalità più pura e la bellezza della condivisione. La piccola baia in cui si trova questo fantastico eco resort è un gioiello, l'acqua turchese e la spiaggia bianca fanno da casa ad una quantità impressionante di fauna locale che è evidentemente rispettata e tutelata da Eva e Kike, gli adorabili gestori del posto. Comodamente sdraiati sulle amache dei bungalow si possono ammirare pesci e uccelli di ogni tipo, piccoli squaletti e centinaia di paguri di ogni dimensione; se si è fortunati si può anche incontrare Mario, un simpatico e mansueto esemplare di babirussa, una specie di cinghiale endemico dell'isola. I Bungalow sono deliziosi, curati in ogni dettaglio con gusto e attenzione al comfort. Sono disponibili ventilatori ma non sono necessari poiché il vento che entra dalle finestre rinfresca perfettamente tutta la notte, i letti sono comodissimi e forniti di zanzariere. Ancora meglio della location in se (che è stupenda) troverete l'accoglienza e la deliziosa cucina di Eva, Kike e tutto lo staff. Eva e Kike lavorano tutto il giorno (con musica ed allegria) per rendere ogni pasto un esperienza unica, l'abbondante cibo servito è sempre diverso e sempre delizioso, sia quello locale che quello di ispirazione mediterranea, il loro sforzo e il lavoro in comunione con lo staff si sente ad ogni boccone! Si può anche percepire chiaramente come i proprietari e lo staff siano davvero uniti come una famiglia e questo rende davvero unica l'atmosfera del luogo. Insomma: se avete la fortuna di trovare un bungalow disponibile affrettatevi a prenotarlo, sarà davvero un esperienza che vi porterete nel cuore! Grazie a Eva Kike e a tutto lo staff per il fantastico soggiorno! Speriamo di tornare prestissimo!Posted on Google

Rosangela GSettimana favolosa alle Togean We had a fabulous week at this resort. Kike and Eva are two great people. Good. Their management is perfect, we have done many boat trips and visits to villages. The food is great. Thank you for everything. Thanks also to all the guys who work there always smiling.. Rosi and the others🥰Posted on Tripadvisor
rene bA true paradise! My expectations were high and they were far exceeded! What a fantastic place and what beautiful houses, everything arranged to perfection and very nicely decorated. The pearly white beach with its own house reef on the doorstep. With up to 8 guests in the entire resort, there is plenty of peace and space to do whatever you feel like doing. Daily there is the possibility to go by boat to another reef for snorkeling or diving. You can also go to the village further or to the bat cave. We took another boat trip to Una-Una to walk into the volcano. Every day Eva and Kike and crew prepare fantastic meals where you sit together with the other guest at the table in a very casual Mood. I've been to a lot of places in the world, but this one stands out. Eva, Kike and crew: Thanks for everything and the unforgettable experience!Posted on Tripadvisor
Noemi HMissing stars to add to review Bahia Tomini has been the star of our trip to the Togean Islands. The Bahia family have transmitted happiness to us in every second of our stay. The passion and affection they devote to it is overflowing. The details and cleanliness of the room for a comfortable stay, the fresh and rich food with many options and very elaborate, the joy of the team at all hours, the passion and knowledge of kike and Eva teaching the beauty of the environment... everything has been perfect. He knew little and we are sure we have to go back to relive that happiness. Good job guys! Greetings to the Nemos and the Doris!Posted on Tripadvisor
Jose GAn extraordinary hotel in a real paradise Having visited Indonesia for several years, I have to conclude that Tomimi Bay is the best Homestay I have ever been. The situation is paradise on a beach in the north of Malenge Island in the Togean Islands (located in north-central Sulawesi (Celebes Islands). There is a magnificent snorkel, from the huts you can see in the afternoon small reef sharks (harmless). It has. diving cjub, very good corals, top notch cabins with private bathroom and extraordinary food, which Kike and Eva prepare every day. Kike and Eva, Spaniards manage this Homestay where everything is made easy, including connections to reach a very isolated site. Also thanks to everyone who works with Kike and Eva, pure kindness and efficiencyPosted on Tripadvisor
juliette lWonderful time in Bahia Tomini Wonderful moment spend at Bahia Tomini ! Kike, Eva and all the staff were super welcoming, we had very good food and met nice people ☺️ the bungalow are really beautiful as well! Perfect place to deconnect & see the wonderful Togean islands Will come backPosted on Tripadvisor
Celine4 unforgettable days We spent 4 unforgettable days in Bahia Tomini. The reality really lives up to what the photos and reviews can imagine. Idyllic setting, sublime cabins (laid on water and sand), excellent food (and varied), jungle on one side, corals on the other... Outings possible every day (snorkeling, diving, walking...). As a bonus, Kike, Eva and their few local collaborators are really friendly and welcoming. Bref: Magic!Posted on TripadvisorOrsolya SA paradise, where time stands still We stayed for a week in Bahia Tomini in April. What Kik e and Eva have here is something special that words or photos cannot fully describe; you need to visit to understand. The minute you step out of the boat, time simply slows down, even if you are traveling with 3- and 5-year-old kids. We loved everything about this place, and I'm having trouble highlighting anything specific, as the view, the hosts and the Indonesian staff, the restaurant, and the surrounding nature were all equally perfect. We wouldn’t choose a different place to stay, even if we visited the Togeans a thousand more times. I’m convinced that we couldn’t find anything even remotely as wonderful, either here or perhaps anywhere else in the world. Thank again, for having us, we had the best time!Posted on Tripadvisor
PeterThis place stays in the heart If this place didn't exist, it would have to be invented. Spanish operators Eva and Kike have created a little gem with great attention to detail. Located in a beautiful little bay with house reef, the four bungalows - all with sea views, two with direct sea access - and the communal area captivate with a very personal touch. The service is first class, the great cuisine relies on local ingredients with European influences. The best part, of course, is the underwater world. As a beginner snorkeler, I received every personal support and then had lasting experiences. This place always stays in the heart.Posted on Tripadvisor
christelpostumaLittle hidden gem! Just perfect! There no words that can describe how beautiful this place is! The staff is friendly and very helpful. The food is stunning and is always different! We stayed in the villa and there where little baby sharks underneath it. I would recommend this place to everyone!Posted on Tripadvisor
Philipp LThank you ;) Eva and Kikee are truly exceptional hosts who have cultivated a little piece of paradise at Bahia Tomini, where they live, work and flourish. The bay exudes tranquility and relaxation, and the coral garden in front of it is a fantastic spot for snorkeling. We also embarked on two incredible snorkeling trips, which we highly recommend. The culinary experience at Bahia Tomini is phenomenal. Indonesian delights graced our lunch, while European dishes with a distinct Spanish touch for dinner. It was a delightful surprise to be treated to such exquisite and delicious meals every day. Our best wishes to Eva and Kikee, warm regards, and we hope to have the pleasure of visiting you again soon. Best wishes, Philipp, Madeleine & Thika
