Me and my boyfriend stayed at this diving resort in June 2007 for two weeks. We booked a diving course through PoD Diving and were therefore allocated their preferrred resort only finding out which resort on arrival. When we arrived we were met by a very friendly diving instructor who then took us to our beach bungalow. It was basic... more

This is a good place to learn how to dive, but not so good to do Fun Diving. While I was there they had 3 groups doing the open water course together and the boat was over crowded. The Instructors are good but under excessive pressure to get customers through the course. My bug bear is that the hut I... more

Just completed a week with these guys and had a great time.Completed the PADI Open & Advanced courses. From a teachers perspective the instruction was first class. All the staff where friendly and extremely professional and the school had a great social vibe. The highlight had to be the video of our final two dives along with the beach BBQ.... more

My husband and I booked three nights at Crystal Dive resort in Ko Tao. We ended up leaving after the 1st night and checked ourselves in elsewhere. For a 'tropical island paradise', the place has absolutely nothing to offer. It is shockingly dirty for divers who are supposedly very aware of conservation, the staff act like they are the guests... more

While the atmosphere here is relaxed and the dive instructors proffessional, it is not worth staying here. The place is a dive and not even worth the small amount you pay for accomodation. DIVERS BEWARE, make sure you learn of their refund policy before paying anything. They will only refund a maximum of 50 % even if you can only... more

Great fun at Crystal Diving Resort. English guys mainly on the staff and all very professional on the diving trips. After my beginner course I took a few day trips with Steve the Divemaster and we had a great time diving around the pinnacles. Good nightlife, check out the Beach BBQ they do. Fresh fish, loads of beer. Def going... more

I made reservations at Crystal Dive Resort after viewing the website, corresponding via email to book my bungalow with AC. The deal was for 800 Baht per night if we dove with them every other day during our stay. We arrived there to find that they didn't have the bungalow I requested, though I'd made the reservation more than a... more
