Didn’t dive here or stayed here but WOW beer is expensive 90 pesos for one SMP. Right out side El Küfflasa (owned by a German) was 50 Pesos, Big Apple is 118 Pesos for 2, Tina’s dive reef/restaurant is 45 pesos and Papa Fred’s has the only German beer on the island. Bier ist gut!! Don’t sit to close to the sea path as you will get harassed profusely. Don’t tell them you you are staying or name. As JOE will follow you around ALL DAY to every restaurant. Only place to be safe is under the water but they will be right there waiting for you. Do not sit in the spot there or your life will be miserable..
They charge double what other resorts of similar quality do on this beach. The manager is extremely aggressive and unfriendly if you complain about the unreliable internet to whatever. At the restaurant I saw him physically attack a customer who complained about the high prices. The beer sells for half the price 10 meters down the beach.
quick premise: because of some troubles in another hotel we had to arrange our stay in this structure, but I would never recommend it. it is really really to expensive for the kind of structure. we had a "superior" room with one basic double bed, some old stinky couches, no welcome water, no collaterals (as soap), the room was really dank and the furniture old. internet only in the common area. the personnel is indifferent and the restaurant didn't offer anything interesting. the location is dedicated to divers, but even if I would dive (actually I don't), I would never choose this hotel. in addition it is located in the terrible Sabang, the worst town I have ever seen: dirty, messy, noisy, cruel... never again!
My first diving experience outside of the Americas. Location of this place is just perfect, 2 steps from the ferry terminal and basically in the middle of all the other attractions and amenities. Resort ground is constant kept tidy, nice and clean, staffs were just dynamite! Security around the clock to ensure the guests' privacy and security. Housekeeping was a definitely thumbs up for what was available! Very well run dive shop with dedicated dive staffs. Very ready for either AIR or NITROX dives. Dive sites are all just outside, in the front of the resort. If not for the busy boat traffic, shore diving is 2 steps away. However, boat rides to sites are all 5 to 15 minutes, easy to manage. Dive boats are just boats, with sites being so close, not a real concern. Need to suit up and get on boats, a bit of a challenge to a 60+ person like me. I visited from Jan 20 to Feb 3, 2018, when water temp for diving asn't great, 77 to 79F, wet suit and hood are recommended, visi was 50 feet average, not clear, but abundant marine species!!! I will definitely come back to this resort in the future, but during warmer months like April to September.…
Someone friends advice to came here so we try and we must Say that we like this resort they have comfortable room's good matress and pillows,nice friendly smiling staff,the bar have a nice choice of cocktails
Very cool place to stay because u will really appreciate the ambiance its totally different to the normal hotel you been stayed before.. And I had the Best Pistachios Ice Cream in that place.. Once I got back there again I will make sure I will go back there and have a scoop of pistachio ice cream ever.
Wow stopped for drinks as it looked like scenic spot. Ordered a pina colada, a tropical staple. Well, it tasted like regular milk, crushed ice and maybe a hint of coconut powder. Basically insipid and tasteless. Sent it back and they offered to make another. I declined that offer as I felt confident it would be the same On paying the bill it was still charged as I had declined a replacement. I said ok give me a San Mig beer. Oh, that will be 90 pesos.... Really weak lots of other places here
3rd visit here in 7 yrs. will come again. great dive shop and great diving. food average, but many great nearby restaurants. about 80 bungalows, perfect, on the beach. they pick you up and return you to manila airport. about 1.5 hr minibus to batangas dock and 1 hr boat ride to island Mindoro, right in front of resort. painless and relaxing. great staff. enjoy
We were looking for a good breakfast and notice their restaurant which really looks good. It is a rainy Friday morning so I decided to get some Beef noodle soup. And guess what it compose of? Instant beef noodle soup that you can buy in any sari sari store in the Philippines for less than 20php they just add a little bit vegetable (not even fresh) and 1 egg. And boom they will charge you 250php . Not just about the price but the taste was really bad. Service from their crew is not even good.
I have stayed in most of the decent places in Sabang, but I had not stayed here previously. Stayed here due to every other place booked during New Year's eve. Here is why I won't stay here again: - Overpriced rooms, was asked to pay up front in cash - that's odd. - Rooms are mediocre at best and had to pay extra for wifi (that sucks anyway) - Food is not good and WAY overpriced compared to everywhere else. - Restaurant staff service was ummm, not so good. The place is convenient and is nicely landscaped, really good looking place all around, but just not a great place to stay. The resort caters to Germans, which is fine, but shouldn't mean everyone else is gouged. Maybe why the place was the only one available. I will mention I did not do any diving on this trip, so maybe that would help make up for the rest of the experience, but I doubt it.…
