Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Ban's Diving Resort boasts a central location, steps away from the beach and close to shops and restaurants, making it a convenient base for exploring. Guests appreciate the lovely pool areas, including the relaxing mermaid pool, surrounded by lush greenery; however, some have noted that the pools can get busy with diving courses. Many guests find the standard rooms great, with AC and quick access to the pool. The resort's layout gives a sense of privacy despite its large size.
