I'm not sure why this location has such good reviews. The staff on our dives spent the whole boat ride talking amongst themselves or with headphones in making no effort to engage with the divers on the boat. Furthermore, I left my dry bag with my phone and pocket cash on the boat and found money was missing when we arrived back in Semporna. I do understand there are lockers that can be used, but I shouldn't have to worry about the boat staff stealing from me while on a dive.
When I reached out to the staff to confront the matter, they blamed me for not using the locker to stow my belongings. When I asked to speak with a manager, I was told the manager would reach back out to me and I have yet to hear anything since.
These are dishonest and negligent staff and I would highly recommend one of the many other dive shops in Semporna who will actually CARE about your experience, and not just your money.

Went to them and everything was fine, until I noticed that about the equivalent of $50 USD was missing from my wallet. My friend was also missing money from her wallet. Very dishonest and while I do understand they provide lockers, you want to have some cash on you and shouldn’t need to worry about dishonest staff members that they hire stealing from their guests.

Scuba Junkie at Mabul Island. I had a pleasant, relaxing and enjoyable stay. Food is only simple buffet style with only 3 ~ 4 dishes plus fruits, just enough that you don't get hungry. (Don't expect luxury meals here). Good getaway from the city life.

Did my Open Water Course here and it was done very professionally. Highly recommended to anyone that is looking for a place to get a diving license!

the dives I had there was really good, need a better bar and food to be perfect.

Nice snorkeling experience with Scuba Junkie. Friendly guide and professional service.

Good diving and local divemasters are great at Mabul. Allways saying hi and smiling to you. Very talented guides also. Western divemasters doesnt care their customer too much, partying seems to be more important . With only local stuff this would be at least 4 star diving resort.

Nice place and good diving school. If you take diving packages from them you will get 50% discount on accommodation. Staff is friendly, placebos clean. But no breakfast.

Much more relaxed this time around. We had wonderful guides that dived really slow looking for wonderful life with no complaints to he heard of afterwards. The food was great. Everyone just seemed happier and it was great seeing some familiar faces. They have made great changes to the bar area. And still doing great work with beach clean ups and saving turtles. Can't wait to come back and we'll even try some of the other islands Scuba Junkie has to offer. 😎

Dive masters are awesome. Front desk staff aren't that friendly and didn't seem willing to accommodate customers. Full board accommodation is basic but clean

I was two nights in a doubleroom and two nights in a dorm. It is very nice when you go snorkeling or diving with scuba junkie because it is just next door and you are close to the staff which are very nice and cool people. You will see! Would definately go there again. Felt like I was living with friends. Very good vibes!

We wanted to take a boat to Mabul and the reception staff told us that we did not have to reserve anything. Next morning we go to the office and they tell us that there is no space, after arguing we get two spots but we paid 91 RM each, which is expensive compared to what other companies offer. Additionally, they charge an extra 3% if you pay with card and they charge you also for the life jacket

Knowledgeable reservation staff and guides. Great company. Take good care of families too!

Kate is very friendly, nice, well-organized, a treasure trove of information, thorough, and really helped us find our way around Semporna. We did the written part of the PADI open water certification in a small room here, and Rachel kept it moving and went over information well to make sure we got it. The living accommodations across the street are stark and minimal, but very cheap.

Be careful. Yesterday some staff of the boat stealed me 250€ while I was snorkelling and they dont accept any responsabilitie.
Olivier Liechti (31/05/2017 06:29)
Did a snorkeling tour to Mabul island with them. Well organised and fair priced.
Ricardo Desequeira (13/05/2017 03:39)
Had an amazing experience with scuba junkie. I did my open wat course through them. They were extremely professional, and took the time to ensure that were comfortable it all skills. Overall, they run a well organized and professional dive shop.

I enjoyed staying in Semporna and having the ability to go exploring and trying different restaurants. All staff were very friendly. I had no issues here, it was quiet in the hotel and my large spacious room and the rest of the premises was very clean. The night life noise outside seemed to stop as soon as the restaurants closed up which was excellent due to morning tours I had. I visited their Mabul location and I'm very glad I opted for their Semporna accommodation due to the badly littered and very smelly beach I wanted to pay extra to explore :-S I've never seen so much litter on a beach :-( Argh, so many nappies!
I'm subtracting one star due to the shower drainage problem which forever puddled around the toilet, this would be no problem for guys standing up to pee but for ladies you're going to get your feet wet! This is more worthy of half star subtraction though sorry!

It's very organised and I liked my time there very much!
Firstly you think the packet isn't cheap but in total it's nice... ;)
They are all friendly and it is save to dive with them.
I paid for 3 nights 4 days with my advanced course + 1 night dive + 4 dives on sipadan and 7 other dives + meal the whole day (between every dive you get something to eat) + nice stay on mabul + transport to mabul = 3000 ringit / 640 Euro

We had a lot fo nice dives with Scuba Junkie

Scuba Junkie's hostel is a very simple hostel you can stay at after having dived multiple days at Scuba Junkie's Mabul Resort. It's one of the only affordable places in Semporna itself. If you're diving, we can highly recommend you to just stay at Mabul itself.

This dive shop did everything right.
1) The shop replied promptly to all my emails leading up to the trip and did a great job answering my questions.
2) They are very well organized and make things easy for the diver.
3) The dive masters are amazing. We had Pajan the first day who was great. He made sure we were safe and had fun. We also had Simone and Khai. These 2 dive masters were amazing. They are so passionate about diving that it makes you even more excited. They are hilarious but also put safety number one. They are kind to remind you if you are doing something that might put you in any danger. Later in our trip we met a guy who dived with Scuba Junkie in 2012. He remembered Simone and Khai and we talked about how great they are!
4) We had a fan room which was cool enough and it was very nice. The room was very clean and nice.
5) The food was delicious.
Scuba Junkie is the dive shop you should go with if you go to Mabul Island and want to dive Sipidan.

Scuba Junkie was amazing to dive with! Excellent, knowledgable divemasters who were super enthusiastic guides; awesome resort (on Mabul Island) and food. The gear was brand new and top-notch... we did 4 days/3 nights with Scuba Junkie and they provided the best diving experience I've had yet!
Piet Hanegraaf (31/03/2016 23:25)
Beautiful diving and snorkeling here! Had good help from the people there. Had a great time!
