    Hi Dreamers,

    Thank you for helping me with this booking. The diving they offered at Seaventures Dive Rig was really good however the accommodation is good but I was expecting more. But for the price compared to other resorts around the area it is very good value for money.

    Many thanks Borneo Dream for some great Sipadan Diving!
