Two Fish Divers Lembeh Testimonial

Resort review form our recent travellers, Jan H. and Rui M. from Beijing, China -

"We love Lembeh and Two Fish. It was one of the best trips for me."

"The only thing I perhaps wouldn't mind is the choice of breakfast. :)
Mind you I don't mind the simple lunch and dinner was pretty good - I grew
up on Asian food so rice every evening is fine for me although I believe
it's not the same for the European audience." 

"All in all we totally enjoyed the trip and will not hesitate to do it all
over again!"
