Our stay at the resort was a mix of highs and lows. We had a fantastic time with the excursions and the food was absolutely delicious, but we were caught off guard by various hidden fees that added up quickly. While the staff were accommodating and the environment was beautiful, be sure to clarify costs before diving into activities. Overall, I would recommend this place but go in with your eyes open regarding expenses.

Tufi Resort offers an exceptional experience for divers and families alike, with incredible staff, delightful accommodations, and stunning dive sites.

Staying at this resort was a truly unforgettable experience. The diving was absolutely spectacular, with pristine reef conditions and a variety of marine life, including some unique encounters like a baby whale shark. The accommodations were comfortable with ample amenities, although a few amenities could be improved. The location was breathtaking, nestled in a stunning fjord which offered gorgeous views. However, the remoteness meant that transportation logistics were a bit limited.

I had a mixed experience at the resort. While the rooms were lovely and comfortable, with unexpected air conditioning, I was disappointed with the dive team's choices and the inconsistency of food quality. Some meals were fantastic, like the beach BBQ, but other times it was hit or miss. Additionally, the recent cancellation of my flight without any notification put a damper on my plans, making the overall value questionable.

The dive crew lacked autonomy and the management could improve in how they handle site selections for diving. Overall service was decent, but not ideal.
