Santika, The Seaside Resort in Manado
There are view resort hotels in the area of Manado that are of the same standard as Seaside Resort Santika. The very well implemented balance between Western demands and local atmosphere is difficult to find in any of the other hotels around.
The resort is build on 7 hectares of lush garden and is an average sized hotel resort.
The 2 main buildings, on either side of the Balinese style lobby, house 2 room categories; Deluxe and Premiere rooms.
The Garden Bungalows are spread out over the premises.
Room Facilities
The Deluxe rooms overlook the beautiful tropical garden with it’s free shaped swimming pool and have, besides the usual facilities as air-conditioning, TV, telephone mini bar, coffee and tea making facilities, a hot and cold water shower in the bathroom. The Premiere rooms have a bathtub in the bathroom and overlook the islands of Bunaken National Park. The view of Manado Tua is simply stunning.
The Garden Bungalows have the same facilities as the Premiere rooms, but are slightly bigger and have a private gazebo and terrace. This one room bungalow has a low partition wall to ensure privacy when sharing the room with a third person.
Dining and Drinking
4* Seaside Resort Santika has 2 restaurants, offering a good variety on Western and Indonesian cuisine. 
The “Big Tree” restaurant offers you, besides nice food, with a glass of wine, a stunning view over the islands and the sea. In the Maleo restaurant, located in the lobby, you are entertained by life music, while enjoying the mainly Indonesian dishes.
If you feel like arranging something special; ask for a private BBQ, beautifully set-up somewhere on the grounds of the Resort.
