Salaya Beach Houses

難得的度假村

What can I say? Great, safe, diving! Dive Masters are very good (Gomer and Joal). Food is over the top; underwater ocean specimen were exotic and plentiful. A diver's dream come true. Staff was superb! Would definitely book here again!!!!!

This place is magic on earth. Salaya is not just a hotel/guest house - the ambiance and feel is like no other place we have stayed in the Philippines. All the staff were incredibly welcoming and passionate about the property and made sure we had an experience to remember. The gardens and pool area is so tranquil, with all rooms having a beautiful view of the sea. We stayed in Porcelain which was a two bed apartment - our family was 2 adults and 3 children - we had plenty of space. The diving is like no other. The service from the initial briefing and getting kitted up to getting out of the sea after a dive to warm towels (!) is first class. We literally didn’t lift a finger (we felt incredibly spoilt!). We enjoyed exquisite drinks and food on board, and snorkellers in our party were welcome with reefs we dived at were also catered to them. We dived on three days of our stay with our Junior Open water qualified children (but there is an opportunity to do Discover Scuba Diving if you are not qualified). We thoroughly recommend the day trip to Apo Island - turtles guaranteed, a beautiful crossing and wonderful staff on board to cater for your every wish. A special shout out to Jomer and Joel who were incredibly kind and patient with our young divers (aged 10 and 11) giving them confidence to experience some incredible dive sites. Salaya is heaven on earth, and what has been created here is incredible. There is nothing they haven’t thought of to make your holiday perfect. We are already saving for our return trip.

The property and staff at Salaya are absolutely amazing. Everything has exceeded my expectations including the hospitality of the staff, the diving, the incredible food and facilities. The Marc van der Poel and his dive staff are super knowledgeable and ensure that all technical requirements are met so that all you are responsible for is creating memories that will last a lifetime. Personal highlights included a juvenile whale shark, octopus, eels, and giant sea turtles. Jackie Joseph Edina Minnesota

Its very beautiful and well kept resort, nice small size and with pleasant atmosphere, very spacious villas, equipt with cooking facilities for the ones which do not want to let the chefs of the resort treat them. Villas are clean and furnished with style. The garden areas are kept very nice and clean and the pool is great. Restaurant Food is very good and i have not found a single dish on the menu i did not enjoy. Breakfast with good selection and well prepared. All Staff is super helpfull , friendly and super efficient. All always with a big smile at all times. Thanks for making our stay memorable
