I had a wonderful week at Sangat Island Dive Resort. Really I cannot overstate how special the place is. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the room is clean and comfortable (no problem without air conditioning, there is a lovely breeze), the food is delicious, the location is beautiful and so peaceful, and the dive shop is fantastic It was beyond my expectations, just perfect. I did my PADI advanced certification (big thanks to Tom!). The wrecks are very cool, spectacular coral and a variety of fish. I also enjoyed the Coron Island Adventure with Clyde - such a fun, well-planned day to more spectacular places. I should also note that I was completely comfortable traveling alone there. Sangat proves that we can have a lovely vacation and still respect the environment. We can minimize our impact. I’ve heard other “eco resorts” aren’t really protecting the local environment. Sangat is genuine.

Pulling up to the island on the boat felt like a dream. It was GORGEOUS. We were welcomed and shown to our hut. I felt so lucky we stayed here and really wished we had another week. It wasnt too hot so it didnt matter we didnt have AC in our beach hut. We did have a problem with 5 monkeys getting in while one of us was napping but that was her fault for not locking the screen. We had a beach massage our last night which was relaxing and great. The final day I did a half day excursion with another couple we met on the boat on the way in. I have never snorkeled in as beautiful spot as I did that day. The coral garden was beyond words. I could have spend all day swimming and watching all the underwater life. The hot springs as sunset was the cherry on top. The resort was worth every penny and more. Id love to plan a time to come back and stay much longer.

We had a great stay at this dive resort. We stayed in the Hillside Chalet with AC. The room was very nice and had hot water in the shower. We had monkeys visit our balcony every day. My wife follows a strict gluten free diet and the kitchen made certain dishes separately for her. The dive shop is well run. The wreck diving is spectacular. The dive sites are 10-20 minutes by boat and the surface intervals are at the resort. It was great to have a hot shower and rest in the room during the surface interval. There are activities for non-divers (kayaks, snorkeling, hot spring). I highly recommend this resort and will be coming back.

Perfect place to unwind and de-stress. The staff is excellent. Wish every cabin had air conditioning as it can get pretty hot at night even with the provided electric fans.

The wreck dives are great but my family didn’t like it as much. The diving team Tom, Iko and Shay are all great. They are very knowledgeable and personable. Service at the resort is impeccable. MJ, Naomi, Steph are great. They always accommodate our dietary restrictions at breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. The bar tenders are also great. It is a full bar but don’t expect to get high quality spirits. We had a villa on the beach with Air Conditioning. The A/C helps if you are in bed just below it but it is still very humid and hot in the rest of the room. The food is OK. Wifi is unreliable. You can get wifi only in the common areas (dining room, reception, dive centre) so the first beach villa near the dining room had some wifi.

It was a unique and wonderful experience. Not the normal avg resort. The staff are exceptionally kind, helpful and genuinely want your experience to be fantastic. I loved falling asleep to the ocean, the variety of food offered and just the relaxed vibe. The resort is the only place on the island. My cabin did not have AC but I was very comfortable with the breezes and fans. Any modern convienance missing was made up with happy hour, beautiful views, and friendly staff. I also recommend the tours if offered. Great experiences snorkling and visiting the natural hot spring.

Wow where do I start. The staff here honestly takes pride in service. It is a small property so Jennifer and staff will probably remember your names. The chef is great and creative. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are provided in your rate. Good balance of traditional Filipino food and healthy options. Food was top tier honestly. The resort itself is beautiful and quiet. Great snorkeling at the property as well. Not a place for someone looking to party but if you want beautiful views, relaxation and water activities this is the place. Again, great service.

Exceptional service, great food and lovely cocktails. the dive shop was very professional. really unique beach rooms, but will mention only one of the two beds in the beach huts has air conditioning. that said, with the wonderful breeze, heat wasn't an issue. the transportation to and from the airport was great. a really special place.

Amazing resort. The dive island was everything we could have hoped for with beautiful scenery, exceptional food and some of the coolest dive sights I’ve ever seen. The staff was incredibly friendly and really can’t reiterate the food quality (found myself eagerly awaiting each meal to see what delicious items they cooked up next!). The bungalows were clean and comfortable and just have a fun ambiance being able to hear the sounds of the ocean and what have you. The dive sights were breathtaking and abundant, offering a new unforgettable experience day in and day out. For the price point, you can’t beat it. Would certainly recommend!

The stay is very pleasant and we had a really nice experience there. We did kayaking to the hot spring, 2 wreck dives (snorkel) and Island hopping tour. The services and food are amazing and I wish we could stay there longer. We would definitely recommend staying here who love nature and considering trying wreck dive.

We love this island resort. We got sad leaving this place. If you’re considering booking here, just do it and you won’t regret it. Great food, awesome people and great diving amenities. The only downside was getting sad when it’s time to leave. We will definitely come back.

Eco does not mean lack of cleanliness and thoughtfulness. It has taken me a long time to review this property as I rather not complain about personal experiences. But as I look at the scars from insect bites on my arms, I feel others need to be aware. The hotel customer service is poor. There is a strong mentality of ‘not my job’ among the staff. Except for the room where the owner stays, rooms have doors that do not lock, insect nests by the doors, flees in beds and generally not very clean. I also got food poisoning from a tour arranged by the hotel which makes me think they do not qualify their vendors yet charge commission for arranging. I stayed here for the diving place which has a very good reputation but could not wait to leave. The positives were the excellent chef and a new receptionist who was trying her best with very little help from the management.
