Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Very quiet location and very close to the ocean. The food was very good with fresh fruits and juices daily but what I loved was how friendly and welcoming everyone was. I would definitely come back here again.

Negative: No WiFi in the rooms but available in the shared space but not a major problem. I just needed to do a bit of work however if purely on holiday the lack of access won’t hurt.

Summary: Exceptional and will definitely return

Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: We very much enjoyed our stay at Dive Planet. The hosts and staff team were very friendly and went out of their way for us. Nothing was a problem (arranging activities, transfers, ordering in certain items, additional diving tuition, etc). The hotel has everything necessary for a relaxing holiday with the added convenience of an on-site scuba school. The diving, guiding, tuition and rental equipment were all of a high quality. The meals were all of a good quality. Breakfast consisted of fresh fruit, juice, and eggs with various breads - all very fresh and delicious. Dinners were similarly of a very good standard. Our room was very spacious, comfortable and clean. We would recommend this hotel and will return.

Negative: There were occasional power and Wi-Fi outages. Obviously this was not the hotel's fault though and is more a feature of staying on a tropical island in this part of the world.

Summary: A very comfortable and relaxing stay.

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: This is a great place to stay if you are planning to dive in Mafia for a view days. The two cosy new bungalows are part of the family run dive center. The staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. The breakfast is yummy and you can also have the option for dinner. I enjoyed the big pool to relax after great dives and the beach is just a stone throw away. Also the dive center and its extremely helpful staff deserves 5 stars!

Negative: -

Summary: Highly recommended accommodation with a 5 star dive center!
