Helaas niet meer dan 5 sterren mogelijk anders had ik zeker meer gegeven. Wat een gastvrijheid ervaar je in Bali en met name in Padangbai. Als je Bali bezoekt is een weekje Padangbai aan te raden en dan zeker boeken bij Absolute Dive (ook als je niet gaat duiken)
Be smart and stay here one night before taking a fast boat to Lombok or the Gilis. It makes the whole journey so much more enjoyable.
The hotel was absolutely beautiful, the staff is even more awesome, did the Gates of heaven tour and it is breathtaking!! Our driver Putu was patient and accommodating... The manager Duan made us feel at home and addressed all our needs. Gorgeous pool and beachfront views. Food was outstanding Must recommend for divers and snorkelers!! Thank You Absolutely Scuba for the amazing adventures!!
Amazing location, very chilled vibe. My room is excellent with a fridge, great air con, drinking water and really comfortable bed. Snorkeling was the best I've ever done. Swam with a turtle and 1000's of tropical fish. Beautiful reef and coral. It was unreal. The kind local guide and driver were amazing and the mixed fruit on the boat plus a delicious lunch was all next level awesome. The swimming pool is crystal clear, the best in Bali. The food and service at the restaurant is excellent. I highly recommend. A special piece of paradise in Bali
Schönes kleines Hotel (nicht nur) für Taucher. Top Zimmer, tolles Essen, supernettes Personal. Für uns ein sehr gelungener Beginn unserer Bali Reise.
you’re even considering staying at Absolute Scuba Diving in Padang Bai — stop looking and just book it. This is hands down our favorite place on Bali, and we say that as people who keep coming back… again and again. We are here now for the fourth time, and that is absolutely not a coincidence. Originally, we planned to stay three nights. That turned into four. And now… we’ve extended again. Because once you’re here, you simply don’t want to leave. The hotel is incredibly beautiful and spotlessly clean. Every single detail feels cared for. The rooms are fresh, comfortable, and peaceful, and the views are just magical. Waking up here feels like a dream — the light, the ocean, the atmosphere — it’s pure Bali at its very best. And then the staff… honestly, the best staff on earth. Warm, genuine, always smiling, always ready to help. You feel seen here. Not like a room number, but like a welcome guest returning home. The manager is exceptionally kind and helpful — nothing is ever too much, and everything is handled with such grace and warmth. And we haven’t even talked about the pizza yet. The BEST pizza in the world. Yes, we mean that. Crispy, perfect, generous, absolutely delicious. We keep saying we’ll try something else on the menu… and then we order the pizza again. Every single time. But also the local Bali food is fantastic! (And the breakfast!!!!!!!!) The whole atmosphere of the place is relaxed, friendly, and full of heart. It’s the kind of place where days slow down, where you breathe deeper, where you feel happy without even knowing exactly why. Absolute Scuba Diving in Padang Bai is not just a hotel. It’s a feeling. It’s our favorite place on Bali, and clearly — we just can’t stay away. And.... 3 minute walk from the harbour, to go Lombok or the Gilli's! We will be back. Again. And again. (4-ever)
Thought I would write this the night before we leave tomorrow. We picked Padang Bai to leave Bali for Gili and thought this timd wed stay two days at Absolute Scuba, and fortunate for us we booked the ocean view room. One of two that overlook the bay. Our first day we red around town, up to thd cheap supermarket and back. Then walked over to thd blue lagoon for snorkelling. It's a steep walk up and down to beach but manageable. Snorkelling from the beach was great. On way back we saw a family of monkeys 🐒 so that cool. The ocean view room is exceptional. To be clear wear its not 5 star room far from it, but we came for the view and it was exceptional. The second day started with alacarte breakfast which was amazing. I had omelette back and toast, fruit, banana pancake which was more like a crepe and it was divine followed by jam and honey on toast washed down with pot of tea 🍵... This place is a working scuba resort so it comes with people using pool for lessons before hittihitting the sites....nothing better thsn watching kids and grandparents getting lessons on holiday.... Oh yes, finally walking around town today (mind in idle) the manager yelled out to me....wife had to gwt my attention...south african chap, he just wanted to introduce himself and congratulate us on anniversery which was really nice...took me a minute to get my brain into gear.... Like many other reviews this place is exceptional its such a world away from southern bali. Recommend if your exiting or entering bali through padang bai give this place and especially the ocean view room a go.
