I can't imagine there is a more beautiful resort in Talumben than Villa Markisa. I felt like royalty during my stay, everything is customized to the guest. The few other guests I met during my stay were all lovely and we enjoyed sharing dive stories over meals. The resort is small enough that it almost feels like you have a private resort. I stayed in a Villa and loved the outdoor shower/bathroom setup, the bed was very comfortable. The Bali massage and dive site on-site was incredible. Amazing shore diving steps away and boat dives less than 10 minutes. The highlight of my stay was my amazing dive instructor and dive lead which I had all to myself, they made me feel extremely safe and were so knowledgeable about the sites - an incredible experience I can't wait to go back!
