Sorry bit late on this one
I did both Lembeh Resort and Siladen Resort two years ago, the latter at the tail end of Murex Paradise Trip which was excellent overall.
Siladen is run by Ana and Miguel who used to run Lembeh Resort up until 2015, so you can expect the same standards at the resort.
No house reef on Siladen, well there is but it's half a meter deep, so all dives are by boat, which can be a walk away depending on tides.
There were some fresh water issues while we were in Siladen which hopefully are resolved now, but showering was not great as the water pressure was poor.
As for Lembeh Resort, I'd go back in a heartbeat.
Diving from Siladen Resort is a mix of Bunaken plus muck diving on North Sulawesi near Manado.
Travel from Lembeh Resort to Siladen Resort is a 15 min boat ride + 90 min car ride + 45 min boat ride.
