Kasawari is a relatively small resort but offer almost the best services in Lembeh from my opinion. With less than 10 villas the resort always focus on the guests and offer excellent dive experiences. The dive masters are all great and attentive, with lots of experience t the dive sites and be able to help me to find my most... More

This is our first time in Lembeh. I traveled there with my wife and 17 friends. If you like muck diving, look no more. All dive sites are 5-15mins away tops. Tons of crazy little critters and some nice wall dives. The resort is clean and well maintained. The rooms are nice and roomy, and the AC works great. The... More

But certainly not our last time here. The resort is small, intimate, well appointed and run by the legendary Nus Lobbu, THE dive guide for Lembeh back in 1998, our first time in the area. The food has western and Asian dishes (we stuck with the Asian), good prices for the local Bintang beer but BYOB otherwise. Diving was for... More

This is supposedly a first rate resort but falls short of the mark. First, it is often noisy - and I mean unbearable from early in the morning - 5:30 AM to late at night. There are villages and dwellings on both sides of the resort - which is very small. Individuals and the villages play loud, amplified music at... More

We stayed at Kasawari Lembeh Resort for the last two weeks of a six-week dive trip. It was the perfect ending to our trip, making us regret going home. The most endearing element is the personal service. The famous Lembeh guides from many years ago, Nus and Ali, work here and they manage operations. We dove with Nus and Ali... More

Fantastic hotel, I absolutely had a wonderful time and really do not have much to add to the other reviews which loved this place. I was lucky to be with a dive tour group, so we had the whole resort to ourselves. I therefore did not have to worry about the problems with other guests that one of the other... More

I realise that i am going against the trend of the reviews for this place, but we had an awful experience here. First of all the diving experience (since this is specialty lodging/diving): The diving was not all bad: we had a very good guide, and the dive infrastructure is excellent. However, this place should not be allowed to provide... More
