To be honest, best and cheapest way is to book direct with a resort

If you don't mind me asking, which resort did you use?

I have found this not always the case, I rang the resort and asked about pricing first, then did a search and found a cheaper rate during the same period , this was done last year, well in advance of my travel, I paid the full amount upfront it was such a good deal.
That is the reason it would have cost me so much to change to a new places, prices have gone up,
the mob I used state I could cancel within a few weeks of leaving and change my booking, again, the prices had gone up.

And thanks to people on here who know the place well, I have sourced a good dive shop in the area , a big callout to JonnieB.

There is an ATM in the Indomaret, works too. Has been there for at least a year. I was there for 2.5 weeks this month.

To be honest, best and cheapest way is to book direct with a resort, no need to go through a travel agent. The resort will arrange a driver to collect you from the airport or hotel in Denpasar and return after diving has finished. I have done four trips there and we always have just booked direct. Never needed to pay a deposit either.

I've been in Tulamben and Amed the past four months, when I was last staying in Tulamben (three months ago)

I was there in October/November 2023 and there wasn't an ATM at Indomaret. If there's one now, it's certainly more convenient than going to Amed. Still no official money changers in Tulamben; for that a run to Amed is necessary (PT Assa Valas)
