Apo Diver Beach Resort

Everything was great

Food and drinks are a little pricey for the area

Loved the location, staff are so friendly and helpful,shout out to all of them.

We stayed in Paris for 6 nights and loved the room but the sliding door keeps catching something and we tried to make it to work just to be able to close and open it properly, hope they will fix it for the next guest.

I absolutely loved the resort, the rooms were large and spacious and the bed comfortable. On-site bar served great cocktails and the direct access to the beach was superb. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Loved everything about it.

We really appreciated the warm and friendly communication from the owner before our arrival, and the welcome on check-in was lovely. The room had a beautiful view, and the scooter we pre-arranged was ready and waiting, which made it easy to explore the local area. The resort is in a great, central location — we visited the Tower viewpoint, Monkey Beach, San Juan, the port town, and local waterfalls easily. The dive boat was small but well-run, and the staff on board were helpful and friendly.

The room felt overpriced for what was offered. Only one kitchen light was working, and we had to ask for basics like clean towels (as the resident cat had been sleeping on them) and toilet rolls. Breakfast was significantly more expensive than local cafés, so we chose to eat elsewhere. The communal areas felt neglected — pool cushions were rarely out, one usable sunbed, and guest areas were often used by staff (including for pedicures). The beach out front was full of seagrass and not maintained, unlike the section cleaned by the backpackers next door. Wi-Fi was mostly unavailable, possibly due to monsoon weather. The biggest issue was the loud music from the neighbouring property with no prior warning. It caused us to leave early. Although we were told we’d be refunded for the unused night, only a partial refund was given as the room didn’t get rebooked — disappointing, especially in low season. Diving was also underwhelming. Despite requesting Jear (as advised), he was the skipper that day and not our guide. The actual guide was pleasant but didn’t point out marine life, and the experience was lacklustre compared to other places like Dauin and Apo Island — we didn’t book further dives as a result.
