Not worth the price, we’ve booked the jungle house first and the location is not as good as expected because you need golf cart to get there, room was full of ants and when we told the receptionist about it we didn’t even get compensated, shower looks like a dungeon and overall everything was pretty old. So we booked another night to the regular rooms which was very small and shower still looked terrible. Overall, not worth the price but the staff was very nice and available.

This place was the best possible place to complete my advanced diving course. The equipment was excellent, the staff incredibly friendly and the facilities (boats, rooms) were very comfortable. We saw turtles, stingrays, etc. The price of the course was very good too, definitely recommend!

This is the best place to do diving certifications in Thailand. We felt very settled and comfortable as soon as we arrived and the whole process was very smooth. The instructors were friendly and the restaurant onsite had incredible food at reasonable prices.

It’s my first diving course here (Open Water) and it was so great. My diving instructor, P’ Waen, was awesome. She gave me full support, slowly taught me to understand everything before we went into the water. It was fabulous underwater world. I will definitely come back to Ban’s diving for my Advance course 🤙🏼
