Its a well known place for divers. What you might get from my review is that it retains its good value. Facilities are as good as it can be in malapascua and the vibe , especially around sunset is amazing.also worth mentioning is that you dont get lonely, even if you are solo.

I stayed here as I wanted to dive with the Thresher sharks and the hotel was convenient for that. The room and bathroom was clean...the restaurant and bar was good (I wasn't tempted to eat elsewhere). It was above functional without being exceptional. But for island accomodation is was just right.
