I had a wonderful stay at Ban's, enjoying an amazing diving experience while also appreciating the spacious and luxurious Pool Villa we rented. The stunning views and the private setup made for an unforgettable family getaway. However, some concerns about the dive instructor's behavior overshadowed the experience a bit and the buggy service could be improved for better accessibility.
