10/6
Overall I felt like this hotel was overpriced for what you got. We stayed in a deluxe room, which was nice. Bed was comfortable. It was too hot and the AC could not keep it cool enough, but they did also have a fan. The shower was only lukewarm, not hot, but not a huge deal as it was so hot.
Restaurant was ok. Large breakfast portions were nice.
They had a shuttle to the main town for 100 php per person. Laundry was crazy expensive 350php/kg, but it was clean.
We appreciated that they arranged a driver for us to go to Osmena Peak and Kawasan Falls for us last minute (was 5000php).
We did do 2 dives with the dive shop on site. We had been planning to do more, but were not very impressed with them, so did not do more dives. They didn’t seem eager to have us dive with them (didn't respond to our email ahead of time and didn’t acknowledge us when we went down to the shop to look at the dive sites/schedule and to inquire). However we did still book. The boat was not set up well for diving (no designated spots for tanks and awkward to get ready), but the main reason we didn’t do more dives was because they pushed to get us to jump right away without checking the gear or doing a buddy check. They did let me do my checks after I said I wanted to, but then again tried to get me to jump immediately again the next dive without doing buddy checks. The did have good equipment. The fruit and tea/coffee on the boat was nice.
Lastly we did appreciate the free cold water refill stations.
