Pier Uno Dive Resort

good food and service. friendly staff. did scuba diving at the house reef it was great!

Rooms are always clean. They use solar power. It is so convenient that food is bundled with rooms. Food is always delicious and seemed like prepared with love. They have a sloping pathway from rooms to the beach instead of stairs so easier to walk around. Dive shop has everything you need. Staff are polite.

The service in this place is impeccable. Staff are well trained to serve you to the best standards. The food is always delicious and copious. The legends at the dive center are incredibly helpful. They literally walk with you into the water carrying your tanks even on a rainy and wavy day. The entrance needs some improvement as it is extremely steep and the muddy construction right outside(not their fault) doesn’t make it easy to gather speed to make it all the way up to the main road as it is on a 90 degree angle turn and a high gradient slope. Rooms are clean but no view. I keep on coming back to this place for their food and service.

I did a day visit and got an intro to diving from Salbe, it was spectacular!! He was very clear and knowledgeable, making him easy to trust for someone who may have had a bad experience previously elsewhere trying to learn the tricks/technique to avoid ear pain (me!). He has 20+ years of experience, which showed in how skillfully he instructed and guided me - he knows the ins and outs of the reefs and the view was completely stunning, even for being considered one of the less clear water days. We went 8.8 meters down and saw all the urchins and colorful fish and sponges, wish I could stay and do the 3-day open water lesson. The resort staff were very nice, but even if you stay somewhere else, it’s worth diving here!

DO NOT BOOK HERE!!! you have been warned. They said there was a mistake in online booking and said I needed to pay additional 6000 pesos. I had already paid for full amount months ago. Smoke alarm in the room was chirping every 60 seconds which means low battery. Hotel staff came by and said it supposed to be like that and left without replacing battery. Unbelievable!! On checking, they charged me for damages that were already there. What a scam! Resort was located at the bottom of very steep road. Taxi driver would not drive down so I had to walk up hill with luggages to meet the driver. And list of problems goes on. By far the worst experience I had in Philippines. *** Do not book here ***
