“a dishonest and cheating resort - never again”
+the dive master and boatman
−the dive shop manager (Rex) who was extremely rude and did not honour private boat rate that was previously quoted. push the blame to me instead (???) and I had to give in midway to reach a compromise. final bill had an item that we did not agree to and dive shop manager removed it after a very rude encounter. one or two front desk staff was also not very helpful and they tend to cherry pick USDPHP exchange rate to their favour only when the final bill has the PHP and USD amounts clearly stated - cheeky. room had cockroaches and water pressure was occasionally low - but not the reasons for the the overall low rating.

+Staff were friendly
−The 5% credit card surcharge they try to charge is ridiculous Location is a bit far from other restaurants and many other businesses on this strip of beach are closed

“A piece of paradise in Puerto Galera”
+The resort is clean, inviting, the view of the sea from the room is beautiful and relaxing, the hotel staff is very cooperative and helpful, the diving club runs like a well-oiled machine, even though it is crowded with divers and the food in the restaurant is excellent. We had a great time and will definitely go back there again
−1. The swimming pool is small and is hidden between the buildings. 2. We have stayed there only for 3 nights. It was too short

“A nice beach for snorkelling”
+1. The beach outside Scandi divers It seems that many guests come here for diving, but we stayed here for the purpose of snorkelling. As we are not good swimmers, we could only swim at swallow water. My friend and I spent a morning snorkelling at the beach just outside the Scandi. we were happy to see sea urchins, and some coral reefs, though the colors of coral reefs is not the best that I saw before. We could have dropped the island hoping tour and spent more time just snorkelling there. 2. Helpful staff , everything is clearly communicated. 3. Good food at the restaurant though the price is a bit higher than others in the area. 4. They gave us a better exchange rate when paid our room with US dollars as we run out of peso. But when we asked for direct currency exchange service, then the rate was not good. However, they advised us to change our money at the town of Sabang Beach for a better rate.
−1. The Room We booked for a twin room with the view of the swimming pool but we were initially given another room which had no view at all. After we requested to change, they promptly gave us back the room with the view. The room has air conditioner but it was too cold even I adjusted the mode to fan or dry only. The so-called 'blanket' that they provided was just a bed sheet. I requested for another bed sheet and also used the bath towel to keep myself warm. I wish the window could have been opened. The drainage in the bathroom was blocked, but they fixed it very quickly after reported. 2. Island hopping tours We joined island hopping tours via Scandi. The company who organized the tour was flexible as it allowed us to start any time between 9am or 10 am; to have lunch or without. They took us to Heart beach, Haligi beach, Long beach, coral garden and the underwater cave. When we climbed the steep rock and saw the entrance of the cave, we decided not to go down further. The rock was very slippery under the water and this activity was certainly not suitable for us. The sea was very rough when we reached the spot for coral garden. We could hardly swim, so the small boat pull us alon

“A really friendly gem”
+Staff and the dive crew were exceptional. It seemed like all staff knew my name by the first day. The kitchen does a good job with a large and varied menu. It's a fun place to stay with terrific diving.
−Although only a 15-20 minute walk to town, it can feel a bit isolated.... but that can be a good thing.

“Nice dives in a friendly place”
+Friendly & client oriented staff Nice facilities Well organised dives
−Food in the restaurant is overpriced We had a problem with a pipe -> disaster smell in WC (problem need to be fixed in BC5!) It was our decision not to change the room but sad moment that it couldn’t be fixed by plumber
