I can't speak highly enough about www.tulambenwreckdivers.com - their villas are probably, no definitely, the most luxurious dive accomodation I've ever stayed in & at a terrific price, plus Tony & Dot are great hosts. I also dive with them
One of the great things about Tulamben is that since it's nearly all shore diving, you can set your own dive schedule. The wife and squid can hang out by your private pool if you stay in the villas
You're correct that there're no sand beaches there, but the diving is fantastic, USAT Liberty is one of my favourite dives ever. You can do a boat trip to from Padang Bai to Nusa Penida to see the mantas (and with a bit luck & the right timing, mola mola)
