Myself and my boyfriend have just finished our stay with Crystal Dive Resort, and have done our open water and our advanced open water with them. They have a great advantage as they are well located, only a few minutes to the pier on foot, and obviously close to all the major reefs, with clear blue warm waters. The instructors... more

I stayed here recently while diving in Koh Tao. There are different accomodations on the resort- I stayed in the bungalows up the hill. You get a great rate (300baht) on a bungalow if you enroll in a course or are an ex-student. The rooms are simple- tile floors, stiff beds, and thin but clean linens. The bathroom didn't have... more

I did my open water course here and the instructors were top notch, very helpful and knowledge which put me at ease as I hadn't dived before. The whole dive opertaion is very professional and I would recommend anyone to book a course with them. The downside is that the accommodation I was in was basic to say the least... more

My husband and I booked three nights at Crystal Dive resort in Ko Tao. We ended up leaving after the 1st night and checked ourselves in elsewhere. For a 'tropical island paradise', the place has absolutely nothing to offer. It is shockingly dirty for divers who are supposedly very aware of conservation, the staff act like they are the guests... more
