I am not sure if you want a place where you can find accommodation and diving separately or just a place you can dive without a nanny. Anyway, if you don’t mind somewhat expensive

I did a few days there a couple of years ago. It was very nice with excellent accommodation and proper Komodo diving. I snorkelled the house reef a couple of times and it was full of life, including a couple of juvenile barracuda, mantis shrimp and shoals of small fish.
It is hard to imagine a more laid back place.
We did a few weeks, staying at Scuba Seraya SCUBA SERAYA RESORT (Tulamben, Bali) - Reviews, Photos & Price Comparison - TripAdvisor, Two Fish at Nua Lembongan Two Fish Dive Resort Nusa Lembongan, Komodo Resort and a Komodo live-aboard White Manta Diving - Home
I dislike guided dives, but these guides were generally quite good. Other than at Two Fish we had a either a guide to ourselves or a third diver. At Two Fish the logistics are a bit of a pain with no house reef and a 5 minute walk to the boat. Once in the water I don’t remember them being intrusive.
I have to say though that I much prefer to explore for myself. I can go to an aquarium to see specimens, I don’t want the “tour”. The most memorable part of the whole trip was finding a blue ring octopus myself. The guide had headed away and was too far to call back. My girlfriend is very good at spotting stuff, we can get by and have an enjoyable time without much help. On the other hand, if you absolutely must see a leafy frog fish then go with the guide.
