Comments	We were initially disappointed to learn that the cottages were about a 15 minute drive from the water. However, transportation to and from the water is in newer clean and well cared from vans with air conditioning so it turned out to be no issue at all. Service at both at the boat and Cottages was simply outstanding! I can't say enough about how well they took care of our group during our 3 day stay. I've never had this level of service from any other place I've dived in my 7 years of diving. The manager at the resort quickly resolved a number of issues our group had and always solved them in our favor. I highly recommend this resort and dive operation if you are planning to dive Lembeh Strait.

UW Photo Comments	Diving is done off one of two fast boats that can handle about 8-10 divers comfortably. They have a "mothership" that is the base for starting all dives from and for surface intervals between dives. The small boats aren't well equipped for cameras as they are just placed on surfaces in the stern of the boat, but as the dive sites are generally less than 10 minutes from the mothership this isn't much of a problem. The mothership is well equipped with two large, deep freshwater tanks for rinsing cameras, and also a camera bench for working on cameras. There is also an area for charging batteries in the dry section of the boat.
