Stayed for 4 nights and really enjoyed my stay here,and would recommend to all.
I have read the poor review by the American. Some things are not ringing quite true here!!!
Yes it is 100 peso (apx £1.70)to hire the snorkeling gear but its for the whole day not when you get out of the water. And they were decent enough. But if you are really into snorkeling why would you need to hire, you will have your own????Three of us hired a boat & man for 5 hours and he took all over the place giant clam,long beach ,coral reef and some of his secret hideaways ......1000 peso about £15 for 5 hours thats a bargain!!!!We got to see giant turtles which was brilliant swimming just below you watching there massive eyes just made my day. The food is good and at a good price but may a little slow if its busy. The only negative for me,is its maybe a little quiet after 10pm the place just seem empty but thats just me i like a bit of nightlife. But all in all was a great 4 days.

This hotel is the only one on the island accessible via Muelle Port, far from other hotels like in Sabang and White Beach. Food is good and staff are friendly. You can rent a boat that would bring you snorkeling near by (10 minute boat ride) or scuba diving within 1 hour.

This is a perfect destination if you want a quiet place to stay at a reasonable price. The room is big and clean. The staff are very accommodating. They allowed us to check in early since it's holyweek and we need to be early to avoid the large crowd. The food is quite pricey but you really have no choice. The resort is located in an island surrounded by residential houses and a school next to it.
For the activities, snorkeling site is just a walk away from the resort *thumbs up* if you opt for the island tour, I recommend that you avail of the resort's package than hire someone from the locals. The resort's boatman is more familiar with the beautiful snorkeling spots and we enjoyed his company more than when we hired another local the next day. :)
We truly enjoyed our stay here. Thanks Coral Garden! 🌟
