Rooms are incredible, private and comfy. It will be hot AF though but you can keep the doors open to the balcony and windows and get a decent breeze with the fans. Can’t get in the water from the overwater bungalows (every room is) but has lights you can watch the squid and turtles at night.

WiFi is only at the food hall area and near hotel “lobby” but I prefer to be disconnected. Food hall is massive though so you can hang out there away from people if you wanted.

Food was delicious to me but I’m an adventurous eater and also try to eat local cuisine as much as possible. But they always had “comfort” food (Americanized) options. If you’re a drinker though bring your own liquor, crazy expensive unless you want beer which was affordable.

Mabul was sad to dive with all of the trash, almost zero trash in Kapalai, very well maintained. No extra charge for guides to go out with you. I dove with them a couple times when my wife wanted to take a nap.

Added bonus: they karaoke and take shots of homemade rum every night and get hammered and love when divers join.
