What the reviews say
Women return here specifically to learn or progress their diving, citing instructors who adjust to your pace and remember your preferences underwater. The standard cottages are basic; if you want more comfort, that is worth factoring in before you book.
- One reviewer completed both her Open Water and Advanced certifications here, crediting specific instructors Reinier and Alexes, and noted that manager Zoe checked in on guests throughout their stay.
- A solo traveller mentioned that after dives, the bar became a natural meeting point for fellow solo divers, with staff bartenders Kuya Janjan and Paupau contributing to a consistently friendly atmosphere.
- The Apo Island trip as a standout excursion, with one describing it as the ultimate experience of her visit.
- One woman participated in a coral restoration dive run in collaboration with the IMR Institute, describing it as a once-in-a-lifetime contribution to marine conservation.
- A repeat guest noted the standard cottages are basic and clean, positioned directly in front of the sea with notable sunrises, and mentioned that shower water from a deep water source left skin feeling softened.
- The resort bar functions as a genuine gathering spot where solo divers regularly meet after dives, aided by attentive bar staff.
- The dive school assigns each guest their own personal crate to store gear throughout their stay, keeping equipment organised across multiple dives or courses.
- Guests can participate in coral restoration dives run in partnership with the IMR Institute, involving active conservation work underwater.
- Standard cottages are described as basic but clean, with direct sea views and sunrise positions right at the water's edge.
- The Dauin area is noted for exceptional macro and muck diving sites, with Apo Island accessible as a day-trip by boat.
