Hello everyone!
We (2 people both 25 y/o) are planning a trip to padangbai in September this year.
Our travel dates are already fixed. We are currently looking for a hotel/hostel to stay at and maybe the diving base to stay.
From other posts in this forum we found that the geko diving centre is the best to choose. Are there strong different opinions? If yes: where would you recommend to go?
The bigger question for us the accommodation. There are lots of different places to stay which range from 7$/night up to 80$/night. Our budget would be up to 30$/night. We dont really need a super exclusive hotel with lots of fancy stuff as we will spend most of the time diving or sightseeing.. What we would like to get is clean, air conditioned rooms with decent breakfast.
Is there any hotel or hostel (we have no problem sharing rooms with other people) you can recommend? Our first look was the pandang bai beach resort but recent reviews (at tripadvisor e.g.) say the state of the hotel is decaying and getting worse.
Some additional thing: we would like to stay near the diving base (~10 min by foot), as we womt have a car or any means of transport on bali!
So.. I hope you guys can help us out.
Many many thanks in advance.
Best wishes from germany,
Kevin
