Why book a learn & stay or DIVE & STAY package?

We think the easiest way to organise your dive trip is to book yourself one of our Nusa Penida Dive & Stay / Learn & Stay Packages.
We’ve included all transfers, great accommodation on the island just 1 minute walk from our dive centre and the beach, your diving, snacks and refreshments onboard as well as lunch in a local cafe on a beach. Deluxe rooms are equipped with AC, TV, hot water and king-size beds. There is a spacious pool in the hotel and another one in our dive centre.
The only decision you’ll have to make while on Nusa Penida is where to have dinner.
Take a look at what we’ve prepared for you and see for yourself!

safety

Safety of our guests is our top priority while planning and organising our daily dive trips.
We always choose the dive sites with the best possible conditions to bring our guests to.
Please keep in mind that some dive sites in the area are very condition dependant. Manta Bay, Manta Point and Crystal Bay are probably the most popular dive sites in the area. However these dive sites are located in the south part of Nusa Penida thus being exposed to the swell and surge the most. We can usually predict the conditions roughly 5-7 days in advance, but sometimes the mother nature behaves, making the diving on those sites impossible due to the swell.

We do not cancel our dive trips trips because of the weather (rain, clouds etc.) unless there has been an official storm warning issued by the local authorities. In this case your trip will be either rescheduled or refunded.
From our more than 13+ years experience of diving at Nusa Penida, Lembongan and Ceningan there is always a part of the island which is not affected by wind, waves etc.
Cases of natural disasters and certain anthropogenic factors – volcano eruptions, earthquakes, pandemics, floods, tsunamis, acts of war, alien invasions etc. are considered force majeur.

Please allow for the sufficient surface interval before you take a flight after your last dive. We’d recommend you to consider planning your flight no earlier than 24 hours after your last dive.
Your package schedule can be easily adjusted to meet that requirement – just let us know your flight time.

Package offers Discounts

We discount our packages only if you bring and use your complete set of scuba gear.
Please, let us know you’re bringing your own wetsuit, BCD, fins, boots, mask and regulator while making your booking with us. You’ll get your discounted package price.

Package booking

Nusa Penida is a popular dive destination.
We strongly recommend you to book your package well in advance.
For now our packages are based on the availability of rooms and bungalows at Ring Sameton Hotel, Nusa Penida. We are unable to provide package offers based on any other accommodation in the area.
We are in the process of building our awesome rooms for you.
Though we really like Ring Sameton Hotel and always recommend it to our friends and guests, however we do not control neither staff nor facilities there.
If you decide to stay in one of other accommodations nearby – feel free to choose any using one of the many available online booking platforms.

Package payment

You can make a deposit using various methods of payment – bank transfer, PayPal and Wise.
While in Nusa Penida you can settle your bill using all of the methods mentioned above, with credit or debit card (non-Indonesian cards attract 3% surcharge) and, of course, cash.
There are several ATMs between two harbours (Toyapakeh and Sampalan), power blackouts are possible though. It would be more comfortable to have some cash on you.
Please note, that we are located on a remote island. Though we do have card facilities, sometimes the connection can be lost for hours on the whole island. Settling in cash can often be the simplest and safest option.
There are money exchange offices on the island, however exchange rates are generally way better in Bali, so it’s wise to change your money while in Bali.

Cancellation and refund policy

Life is usually full of surprises and sometimes they are not exactly what we expect.
We strongly recommend you arrange travel insurance for your holiday, which may help you to smooth out unforeseen problems that might occur during your trip (hopefully not). Such problems include (though are not limited to): illnesses, injuries, delays or cancellations of transfers etc.
If you decide to or have to cancel your booked trip or package last minute – we won’t be able to refund.

Upon completing your booking with us we will send you a booking confirmation, indicating your itinerary (meeting time, departure time, expected duration of the experience, amount of the deposit paid and the amount due). Meeting time for all ocean activities is 30 minutes prior to the departure of our boats thus allowing sufficient time for filling up all necessary paperwork and getting the matching size wetsuits and booties.

Our boats departure times on particular dates, as well as the time we start the classes and pool training are based on ocean conditions (tides) and our operating hours. Please, kindly make sure you take the time mentioned in your booking confirmation into account while planning your trip and transfers, allowing enough time for reaching us in time for the booked program. In case you will be unable to reach us in time for the booked program (dive trip, diving course, introductory program) – that will be considered a cancellation of your booking.

We will definitely do our best to help our guests out and reschedule the booked trip, though it might simply be not possible.

All Nusa Penida Dive & stay and learn & stay packages refund policy

If you wish to cancel your booking 30 or more days prior to the booked date – we’ll refund the full amount (excluding transfer fees and charges). We will return 50 percent of the paid deposit if the cancellation is made within the period of 30 to 20 days prior to your booking. If you cancel less than 20 days prior to your booking your deposit is non-refundable.

We do recommend you to take care of your travel insurance prior or immediately after booking your Dive & Stay / Learn & Stay Package. That will make your life easier.
