      On my travels around the Philippines it’s nice to find a resort that has both clean high standard accommodation along with friendly staff. A recently built resort where the owners have paid attention to detail along with western standards. Perfect swimming pool for diver training, the dive center was equipped with new equipment and well laid out with facilities to support diver’s individual requirements. To use an old cliché I arrived as a guest and I felt I left as a friend.

      Sandingan Dive Resort is a perfect place for a relaxed vacation. Richelle and Erwin are the best hosts one could imagine. The communication beforehand was very smooth and kind. Since it was our first travel to the Philippines they helped us set up everything. The Resort itself is a little paradise. All facilities you need for a perfect holiday are provided - stunning views, peaceful nature, little beach, perfect diving/snorkeling conditions, swimming pool, clean and beautifully decorated rooms. The food at the restaurant was delicious, freshly made and the cooks very kindly fullfiled our special requests. In fact, the staff is lovely and very welcoming. Richelle and Erwin organized snorkeling, a tour around Bohol island, kayaking and massages for us. Highly recommended, also for families with kids. We not only found paradise but also a homey feeling far away from home and want to come again. Thank you Sandingan Dive Resort!

      Went there for coffee/dessert and to check the place out. The owners and staff are truly lovely. The resort itself is very new with great views of the sea an surrounding islands, The rooms are very well decorated with different designs in each room giving them a feel of exclusivity. The food was great and we had a lovely afternoon on the veranda overlooking the sea. Highly recommended!

      Just walked in for lunch and snorkeling. Very relaxing location and good snorkeling. There are much better dive options available for Cabilao Island. We ordered pizza for lunch that was a bit undercooked.. but we really enjoyed the snorkeling and friendly conversation with the owners. Very nice diving facilities and equipment too. ..hope to go back someday!
