Lembongan Dive Center Premier PADI dive resort #S-22362

I'm not sure if it's because the name's so generic or there've been really no discussions about this dive center before, but my search for this on scubaboard didn't show anything.
Right now I just rely on tripadvisor for reviews of this shop. They have had only 103 reviews. Only 1 bad review, so I guess it was just one-time mistake. Of the other reviews, there're a lot from snorkelers.
I hope to hear from serious scuba divers. If anyone here has used them before, can you please share the experience?

I like them for being locally owned and their DMs're mostly local I think.

Wisnu has been diving with LDC a few times.

LDC's DMs are all locals ( = from Lembongan or Ceningan, not just Indonesian) and their local instructor (Suka) has taught many DMs now working for other DC on the island.

Recently dove with LDC for 5 days and all the divers on the same boat with me enjoyed and we dove several times together during the same week. Some who did not like strong currents did not return.

The guides are instructors and DMs. They are very particular on safe diving and careful on choosing dive sites that are suitable for all the divers on board. If they find dangerous currents (washing machine) on a particular dive site (eg. Toyopakeh), will move on to another dive site. I like their attitude. When we went to Manta Bay and realized there may only be one Manta swimming around, they seek all our (divers) opinions and votes whether to dive there or go somewhere else. On another day, there was no Manta at Manta Bay so we did not jump and went to another dive site.

The packed lunch (fried noodle/fried rice/sandwich) were not fantastic but were compensated with their good service. I like them making coffee for ALL of us during surface intervals... hehe
They are also very friendly and some (Moyo & Suka), funny.
In conclusion, I enjoyed very much and felt safe and comfortable with them.

Dor1813, thanks for your reply!
Unfortunately LDC's fully booked for the days I want, so ...

I hope you dove with Mantas at least once in your 5 days diving there!
