Chindonan Dive and Beach Resort

酒店在一個很偏遠的島上，單程快艇需要30分鐘，並且離譜的就是他接送你去酒店需要另外收費，收多少呢？來回差不多900人民幣，你沒有看錯，900人民幣！不是900比索！ 並且我發郵件問酒店怎麼去島上，他説他們有船在科隆碼頭等，沒有説要額外收費！

The atmosphere here is wonderfully quiet and relaxing – exactly what we were looking for. Some construction is ongoing, which can be a bit disturbing, but the policy of halting work on request is a fair and effective solution. The staff were always polite, welcoming, and genuinely kind. We especially enjoyed the food: always fresh, local, and delicious (with authentic Filipino flavors as far as we could tell). We felt truly welcome throughout our stay. Diving with Matt was an absolute highlight – he did an outstanding job guiding us through the wrecks and tailoring the dives to suit all guests. His passion for diving really shines through and made the experience unforgettable. It’s also worth mentioning that all staff spoke English well enough for easy conversation, which made everything smooth and enjoyable. A few practical notes: • Power interruptions and slightly yellowish water may be an issue for some, but we didn’t mind. • The new Starlink WiFi is fast and reliable for such a remote island. • The “beach” part of the name can be misleading for non-divers, as there isn’t much beach at high tide. • Each room only has one key, so if you lock it and keep it with you, the room can’t be cleaned. Once we asked, the staff explained it to us. Overall, this resort is a gem for divers and anyone seeking peace and nature. Beautiful atmosphere, great food, outstanding diving, and wonderful people – we would definitely recommend it.

were it not for the spotty electricity in the island. But the service of the staff more than made up for it. We were a group of 21 pax and we were all well-attended to. The home cooked food was excellent and abundant. Overalll, a very pleasant experience at Chindonan. Will be back for sure.
