A nice hotel on a spectacular reef. Unfortunately we were unable to dive due to illness but the snorkeling was just fine, over the course of 2 days we saw 5 turtles, a sea snake, lots of sea horses and many fish. The bed was just ok, and breakfast was average but sufficient. A short tricycle ride to town.

This is a dive resort with an amazing house reef! Went to pescador island from this resort and snorkelling was better on the house reef. Take a tricycle into town. It’s worth visiting. Food was good and great spot for three nights

Great amenities, good service, quiet rooms, clean and safe. Good snorkeling right off the property. Reef is starting to deteriorate with hardly any large fish left. The drop off has some of the best snorkeling.

The place was beautiful and nice and staff are all friendly. However, its not easily accessible to go anywhere else since the resort is far away from the main road. It wouldve been nice if the resort would offer a free shuttle going even to the main road and back.

Nice mini oasis in a desolate part of Moalboal! Very quiet, clean, and private with knowledgeable staff. Food options are limited but the main area is a 5-10 minute drive or 30 minute walk. Awesome diving for turtles, sardines and bioluminescence.

Wonderful Diving & Staff

I stayed here with my mom to go diving. The diving was wonderful tons of fish, coral, and turtles! The hotel room was wonderful and had a huge balcony. My mom doesn’t dive so she just relaxed by the pool. The diving crew was great at finding and pointing out sealife. My mom did a Discover Scuba off the house reef and was so excited that she saw Turtles and told everyone about it to everyone she knew!

Lovely stay away from overcrowded Panagasma

Located on the serene beautiful Turtle Bay, away from the noisy very overcrowded tourist ghetto around the sardine Panagsma beach. Good snorkeling and diving gear available. Nice pool. Comfortable room. Some beautiful reef fishes, and many snorkelers see turtles after 4:30 pm. Not a sandy beach, but nice areas to sit and enjoy the views and sunsets. Rides into town are 100 Philippine pesos p/p. Breakfast good , bar on premise, and easy walk to JG's Grill for very good dinner

Maintenance in troble

We had to move one to aother room for some reason. A room with seaview was nice having terrace and all electronics were functioned but the other room near swimming pool has no terrace and TV connection was not seamless, airconditioner is uncontrollable. Windows were facing public so could not open them.

We loved our stay there because of the access to the coral reef right at the back of the property. We would spent hours snorkeling as the reef is amazing (when you get to the wall on the deeper side you can see plenty of turtles), and even did a discovery dive which was brilliant (a bit expensive though but it was with the hotel). The room was a bit dated but clean and comfortable. Cooked breakfast was lovely, and the restaurant had nice food. It's a bit further away from town so you always need to take a tricycle to do anything else than snorkeling (200 pesos for 2 one way).

I never write reviews but could not help myself after staying here. We loved our time staying at Turtle Bay!! The food was delicious and the diving was incredible but what stood out most of all was the hospitality of the staff. This family ran resort really house above and beyond to make you feel at home. The staff makes an effort to remember your name and they are sooo helpful with any questions you might have in your travels. The resort is kinda far from town but do not let this discourage you from staying here. They have services that will take you to any part of town. We loved staying here and will be recommending it to others ❤️

It was a beautiful property with beautiful ocean side view. The included breakfast was so good as well! Unfortunately not all amenities were available due to repairs and renos but the pool was very nice. Good recommendations for activities around the area! Canyoneering and Snorkelling Island hopping is a must do! Room was decent, the only complaint I have is low water pressure but otherwise it was a pleasant stay. We were out most of the day for activities anyways!

*Disclaimer: the property is still recovering from a hurricane that happened in 2 months ago. Pros: - The staff was super nice, we had issues with the AC, TV, and refrigerator and they came to fix it late at night. - access to a “private” area on the beach really makes water activities seem-less - the reef was better than what you pay for in town - the property is beautiful - amazing view from restaurant - view was nice from room D - family ran - the rental area workers were super nice/informative and right by the water Cons: - room it’s self was very lacking for the price - no wifi signal whats so ever other than by/in the restaurant - unclear what is free and what they charge you for - only 1 restaurant/bar open, the rest are being restored - breakfast buffet was lacking heavily for the price and burger was a hard pass.
