Tangkoko Macaca Resort

I would definitely return to such a peaceful and magical place. We spontaneously booked a morning trek through Tangkoko National Park, which was actually quite affordable, and we were able to see all the animals we had hoped for. The people there are very kind and helpful – thank you for this wonderful experience! The rooms were great, clean, and everything was perfect. However, we decided to eat out since the food options were limited and quite expensive. Nevertheless, it was an amazing experience overall, and we would have loved to stay longer. We would definitely recommend this hotel!

Amazing wildlife. We have just returned from a brilliant trip to Tangkoko Hills. This is a very laid-back place to stay where you need to go with the flow. It has a nice airy restaurant serving great local fresh food. Stefen ensured we had excellent guides. We went on a boat trip along the coast and up a freshwater creek with Biyong to see some lovely kingfishers and saw a white-bellied sea eagle. The trip to Tangkoko park was outstanding, we saw so many black-crested macaques - it was so special see them hanging out in such large family groups. Our guides Raphael and Aria were so good at spotting - they found green-backed kingfishers and lilac, as well as bear couscous and in the evening the super springy tarsiers as well as tarantulas and even a yellow-sided flowerpecker sleeping bird! There are some lovely butterflies as well. This is a great place to access some incredible wildlife. Rooms are clean and airy with a nice verandah and aircon.

Very cute bungalow about 1 km from the entrance of the park. The AC was very welcome after a hot humid trek through the park. Food is included in the rates and good with generous portions. They will accommodate birders with very early 5am breakfast. Wifi was weak but a bit better if I left the door open. I was there for birding and asked them to find a guide with good knowledge of birds. They booked Stefan Bee and he was awesome! Eagle eyes, spotting birds that were well camouflaged and he knew all the bird calls as well. Very nice guy too, speaks English well. We also saw tarsiers, macaques and cuscus. Dedicated birders should also go to Tembuan Hill for different species that are in the park.
