Hi all! Can anyone recommend a good place to stay in Padang Bai? We did a day trip there from Tulamben a couple of days ago and I was very impressed with the macro opportunities at the jetty there. We will probably dive with OK as one of their guides was kind to me underwater, pointing out some photography opportunities my own (non local) guide had missed. And I like to repay that kind of thing. I made note of the boat when we were back up, and it's the Dipe Boat Too, which I belibe belongs to OK.
There was also a dive guide there dressed as a devil, and she was showing her guests some photography subjects but was careful to ensure we couldn't see them. So no tip from us for her. Heh. We try to be generous tippers!
Anyway, so we will probably spend 3 or 4 days there shortly and I was wondering if anyone has tips on a good, affordable place to stay? I like aircon and my wife likes hot showers. But other than that we are ok with a humble place and to save our money for diving.
