A small piece of paradise

Reviewed By Caroline H

I was looking for somewhere picturesque to relax after a busy week in Manila and Sunset Resort was the place for me. From assisting me to arrange my road trip and ferry to the island, to ensuring I had all the correct passes to get to the island; plus a warm welcome on arrival it got off to an excellent start. My 2 night stay was wonderful. The room was clean and very comfortable; the dining and lounging area in front of the sea was clean and well attended. Staff were attentive to my every need, sometimes even before I knew i had one! e.g bringing a cushion for my head as I lolled in a hammock or refreshing my drinking water to ensure it was cold. The food was freshly cooked , healthy and tasty. Jackie, Lara and Lez run a tight ship, staff seem happy and I felt well cared for through out my stay. I would definitely return

a hidden Gem in Sabang Puerto Galera

Reviewed By WINGS GATE T

We stayed at Spets Garden hotel for 3 days, and booked the 2 bedroom family room and 2 jr deluxe suite for my mom and aunt. The food was great, the room is clean, the family room is gorgeous with a nice view of Sabang beach. The Hotel Manager, Mark is very accommodating as well as the hotel staff. We felt well served and the place feels so exclusive for us. Though the family room is located on the top, its like climbing a 7th floor, but its worth it because of the very nice view .We rented out a jeepney to bring us to white beach the whole afternoon and return in the evening. We both enjoy sabang and white beach during our stay. We will definitely come back.

Fabulous!

Reviewed By Gwyndaviesmanila

I couldn’t have chosen a better place to relax away from Manila for the weekend. I had a very warm welcome from all the staff and a couple of great nights, eating excellent food and having a few drinks in the beach bar. Andy, Steve, Aries and Ton Ton looked after me in the bar and I must say, every staff member, was amazing, doing everything they could to ensure I had a great time! I really enjoyed the food. In the evening the tuna steak was so go good, I had it again the next night and in the morning, the coffee and breakfast was a great start to the day. You don’t need to be a diver to have a good time here (I’m not) but I recommend it for anyone planning a break out of Manila. Please pass on my thanks to Vonna, Andrea, Ojie, Hazel and Marlon and Alex who helped me get on the correct boat earlier today! See you again.

Stayed 8D7N at Scandi Divers and it was a GREAT experience! By far the warmest dive crew we’ve met - Rey, Rex, Romell and Arman were so attentive and friendly, they made every dive a comfortable and enjoyable one. Special mention to Mike and GP from the restaurant too, always smiling and accommodating, serving delicious food at affordable prices. The rooms are basic but clean and comfy, had pretty good sleep while we were there. Front desk and Anie were incredibly helpful in ensuring that our travel to Scandi was seamless. Overall an excellent stay, we will be back! ?

Paradise at the edge of the water

Reviewed By QuitaPeluza

Looking to get out of the capital, we found this Pearl in Puerto Galera. Edgewater is in a secluded and calm bay, away from the hustle and bustle of the town and diver resorts. We were taken to their pier and warmly welcomed by the owners and staff, respecting all covid-19 restrictions and precautions. Edgewater is a small resort and spa with a lot of oomph. Their rooms are superb, with full amenities, tv, ac, WiFi, ceiling fan, hot water (obviously!). Some face the ocean, others their lush garden. They have an area facing the ocean where you can relax with a massage or a pedicure. They have a very nice pool, terrasse area, a well stocked bar and an extensive food menu. For our stay, the owner (Richard) prepared a feast and served copious amounts of food, a combination of surf and turf, cold cuts, sea food, typical food, etc. They also have a superb diving service. My spouse completed her PADI certification with Paul, while I dove with Marlon. The dive sites are world class. I have over 200 dives around the planet and this is one of the best places I've been. The conditions and amazing variety of fish gave me some of my best underwater shots. Richard and his wife Victoria went out of their way to make sure we were treated like friends. We will be back for sure.

Natural disaster “Taal Volcano Eruption” Beware!

Reviewed By mldelrosa

We had book 3 nights in an ocean view room for last January 2020. A few days before our scheduled arrival “Taal Volcano” Erupted. The warnings were at level 4. The transportation to Puerto Galera was not running(the ferry boats from the Batangas Port to Sabang Beach were not operating). There are no flights to that area. Our reservation was paid in full!!! We were forced to cancel the reservation since there was no transportation available at that time. I contacted the booking company who contacted the resort. The resort refused to refund my payment !!! Beware, don’t pay them before you stay because Mrs. Wheng will not refund your money for any reason. This was not our fault, but an act of nature. Totally unfair and I cannot recommend this resort to anyone!
