We think ...
A very nice resort with good value for money. It is far enough away from the busy night life of Sabang Beach to enjoy a quiet night. Asia Divers is the only dive shop in Sabang with a jetty and this makes it very comfortable and attractive for divers. At night time the jetty gets converted into a bar where guest meet and enjoy the starry night.
