Amazing diving experience

During our stay, I had the chance to dive with my family, including my two teenage sons, and it was nothing short of lovely. Our guide, Vernie, was really good in finding unique macro critters, ensuring everyone had an amazing time. The dive operation was well organized and the sheer beauty of the underwater world here was lovely.

Yummilicious lunch

I had lunch at the resort and ordered bulalo, which was perfect and not too fatty, just as I hoped. The mango shake was refreshing, and what impressed me was their commitment to serving healthier options without artificial flavoring. A wonderful dining experience!

A peace-filled retreat

The room I stayed in offered a great view and was generally clean, creating a relaxing atmosphere. Although it was a bit snug, it was well-appointed, and I appreciated the comfortable ambiance that made my evenings enjoyable as I relaxed after a day of diving.

Great for divers

What stood out for me was the dive operation and the well-planned excursions. I had the opportunity to witness amazing marine life I had only read about before in my 25+ years of diving. Everything ran smoothly, making for an really good diving experience. I can't recommend this resort highly enough for diving enthusiasts!
