Hi Emmanuel
My wife and I went to P Weh in April and stayed at Casa Nemo (
casa nemo).
They dont have aircon BUT the rooms are comfortable and the fan works well. They really have a stunning little place. The menu is a tad limited but what they do serve is very good.
Everything is very chilled and relaxed at Casa Nemo. We did two dives a day with them and that was perfect! I'm sure if you want to do more then they would accomodate this. Mars the owner led all our dives and he knows the reefs very well, he has been taught all the ins and outs by the guy who discovered the reefs in the 70's.
We loved it so much we are going back in December.
Pros:
- Best accomodation on the island
- Great little beach
- Good food
- The diving is chilled/ relaxed and personal (we dived with a max of 6 divers plus two DM's we saw a Lumba boat pull up with at least 20 divers on it!)
- Its closer to the main town and the ferry (only 15 -20 min away vs 45 -1hr)
Cons - Most of the dives require you to take a 20 -30 min boat ride across to Gapang area, BUT we got to see dolphins on a number of those trips and with their new boat it should be very comfortable.
The diving was good, we had 40m viz at one stage, unfortunately no big boys! But lots of reef fish and TONS of morays!! We saw at least 5 different species. Apparently the Tsunami destroyed the Manta cleaning station so they dont come round too often anymore. Which is a pity.
OH for your return trip to Banda Aceh airport ask Mars to hook you up with the taxi driver he uses regularily. AND if you have an hour or two to kill in BA then ask him to give you a tour of the city and all the Tsunami land marks. It is a sobering tour!!
Enjoy
