We booked a whole package at matahari, ssi Open water diving course and spa. Everything was exceptionaly good, the communication between suci in adwance was super nice and uncomplicated.
Diving center:
As i said me and my son booked also a diving course,. Didi was our diving instructor, as a father of a 14 year old kid I was a bit scared of the diving course, but obviously for no reason. Didi is an awesome teacher, he took his time explaining us everything in detail and was super friendly. My son had some problems with one of his tooth while diving and unfortunately we couldnt finish the course because we already booked another location in ubud. But we decided that we will come back and finish the course and thats what we did now, a simplle whatsapp text to didi and everything was organized, its just lovely how everybody in matahri resort tries to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Im looking forward meeting didi again tomorrow and finish the course. The equipment was also great and the riffs in front are an extra plus for the location, my wife spend her time snorkeling with turtles and soo many fish while me and my son where diving.
Resort
We decided to go for the ocean view bungalow wich is on two floors with a very nice terrasse, the rooms where clean, and again the staff extra friendly and helpfull, the room is full of books to read on the big terrasse. It has a misquito net wich we did nod needed, fridge and ac. The reception was also very helpfull, we misscalculated a bit and did not bring enough cash. They drove us to the next city to an atm, and when that atm did not worked, they gave us cash we could pay for with our credit card. I mean its just a tiny detail but it just shows that they want to help you out as much as they can. I fell instantly in love with the place and the team.
Restoran
Excellent food,, the thai food and everything we tried was very good, so where the drnks with a beautifull view. The staff was also very nice in the restaurant.as i said we had not a lot of cash and i felt miserable that I couldnt tip directly in the restaurand. We tipped in the end at the reception with the cardi hope that was ok too.
Now we are back in the tulamben area but matahari was already booked out but still they offered us a driver to pick us up at our place for the diving course, but i allready miss that place.
Sangat direkomendasikan, loved it.
