For us, Oneta was perfection. Incredible dive crew and facilities, fantastic food, amazingly warm and genuine staff, world class reef etc. etc. Read the other reviews, on these points it is unanimous and already deserving of the "Best in Show" award.
Beyond what everyone quite rightly agrees upon, we were profoundly struck by the
role to which the owners, management and staff have committed themselves, with particular acknowledgement to Anne and Martin with whom we had the pleasure of dealing with directly, but which extends to every member of the team. The Oneta community acts first as steward of the land, the sea, the people and the future of Ono island, using their world class resort as a vehicle to accomplish that solemn commitment. From the ecocentric operation of the resort, the establishment of the Oneta Foundation as a way to work with village leaders to support the local community, the preservation and revitalization of the reef, to the way they educate and encourage participation by their guests in these pursuits, every aspect of the resort remains true to the foundational philosophy of the exceptional entity that is Oneta: Take care of the environment, take care of the community, take care of the guests, and the bottom line will take care of itself. Cheers Oneta, well done, we'll be back!
