We are a mom-daughter duo from the US. A great stay. The bungalows are older but clean. Bed very comfortable and AC works very well (this is important due to the heat). Restaurant serves delicious food (all meals) as well as great views. The dive shop on site is super convenient with a lot of great excursion offerings. We look forward to coming back to Assava again for future diving classes and programs. The hotel offers free shuttle to and from the pier as well as motor bike rentals. The resort is also walking distance to the beautiful Shark Bay where snorkeling was absolutely fantastic (sea turtles!!) Staff friendly and kind.

Beachfront resort with spacious, comfortable rooms. The food at its restaurant is excellent, and there are several other good options nearby. A highlight is the area with view to the bay, where I used to eat and relax in the evenings. The swimming pool is also nice, albeit sometimes shared with diving classes.

Room was very comfortable, AC worked well, wifi was good. Restaurant food was ok, I enjoyed the restaurants down the street better. There's a 7-11 and a pharmacy down the road along with 2 ATMs. Lots of restaurants in the street. I stayed 8 nights and went diving 6 days. Great instructors and divemasters. Located in a quieter area compared to Sai Ri Beach and I much prefer it. Diving was in small groups (3-18 people?) as opposed to crazy large groups (looked like 30-50 people?) at Sai Ri Beach. I liked the personable atmosphere where you get to know everyone you are diving with and you also get to know your divemasters. I would definitely go back.

This was one of our favourite stays while in Thailand for 3 weeks. We stayed in quaint, rustic bungalows. Very picturesque setting, located in beautiful bay. Great little restaurant & bar on site has great food and drink, very reasonable but if you want something else there are places within walking distance. We did intro dive with the resort dive operation - a superb experience - well worth considering if you are staying there. You don't have to be a diver to enjoy this resort. Staff is great. If time was our own we would have extended our stay. Highly recommend for people who don't make a habit of looking for where to assign demerit points - its not perfect but it is beautiful.

The main focus here is diving. Not food, drink or the rooms. We stayed at probably the best chalet (by the beach) and it was small, basic and the a/c couldn't keep up with the modest heat. We had to pay for an upgrade as the "delux" chalet was a cupboard. Unfortunately, if you stay at a dive resort, they're nearly all like this

Had a lovely stay at this resort in a beachside deluxe bungalow which was beautiful, right next to the sea. Area is quiet as I wanted but plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. My only complaint would be that you only get to choose one thing off the breakfast menu, meaning you can’t have fruit and egg or egg and toast with jam, I have been travelling for nearly a month now and this is the only time I have found this.

Just a few steps away from the beach
Very attentive staff checking in and helpful at diving centre. Restaurant food was good, reasonably priced and staff were eager to serve it right. Very nice little bay with diving resorts and snorkeling close by. My only complaint is the bed was hard as rock, like sleeping on boards, no sheets and ran out of toilet paper pretty quickly. I didn’t bother to ask for more, just used the box of tissues. I did find prices for same room varied between booking companies so work shopping around. Overall a good stay, I would easily stay there again.

La struttura è fantastica, siamo stato davvero bene soprattutto all’esterno, molta tranquillità e relax. Il personale è un po’ distratto, al check in sono stati molto frettolosi ed invece per la colazione attese lunghissime immotivate

Thanks to Chas, Rod, Viola and all the rest of the diving masters and staff at the Assava. Patient, knowledgeable and great guides. Did a refresher and my son got the Open water. Couldn't have been better. Nice and quiet area. Just one thing. Have more trashcans close to the beach. Makes it easier to pick up garbage from the beach.

Underbara dykupplevelser
Trivsam anläggning där superierrum är ett lite missvisande namn för de små och spartanska husen. Men tillbringar ju inte så mycket tid på rummet i Thailand... Sista kvällen hade ön ett strömavbrott och vår ac gick efter det inte att starta. De tel nr som fanns att ringa har bara öppet kontorstid så fick ingen möjlighet att byta rum, vilket gjorde natten svettig och sömnlös. AC och bristande nåbarhet påpekas vid utcheckning, men tas emot med en axelryckning... Kanske en utbildning i att man säljer "en god natts sömn" på ett hotell är på sin plats!? Teamet runt dykcentrat är, till skillnad från kollegorna på kontotet, superproffs på kundbemötande och håller säkerheten högt! Benny, vår Divemaster tog otroligt väl hand om oss och vi fick många helt fantastiskt fina dykupplevelser som gav mersmak! Vi kommer gärna tillbaks och dyker med er!
