BADLADZ Beach and Dive Resort

"I picked the lowest cost room and it is smaller but still has a queen bed and a private bathroom with a shower and is big enough for one person or a couple. There's a safe in the room and the room is exceptionally clean which was fantastic. The staff were the nicest people and so helpful for anything like getting towels you can use for the beach (which is at the hotel) or pool so you dont need to bring the ones from your room and any questions you have they will help. The WiFi is also super fast which was very helpful. Wonderful place and wonderful stay. Will stay here again next year on my vacation!"

"We stayed at Badladz for 5 nights and our experience was both incredible and relaxing! We came for diving and instructor Volker was friendly and knowledgeable and catered to both our needs and different experience levels. I had my AOW while my partner was able to complete his OW and we did a fair few more fun dives. The early start at 7.30am for morning dives is well worth it since we avoid the crowd and will be the first group out in the water. The diving is incredible - wrecks, turtles, coral. The resort itself is great value with friendly and helpful staff who are always available. The pool is awesome and we loved the location which is quiet and private with beach access where we took a lot of walks. Massages were great. We did a lot of relaxing while watching the sea. Our room was clean and comfortable. But one of the best things was the food. Everything was made fresh and delicious. Our favourite were the nachos, sisig and bulalo. All in all we loved it. Would love to come back!"

"I stayed at Badladz for 7 nights, opting for a regular room when I booked it a few days before. Without asking I have been upgraded to a larger room, which was super comfortable, very clean and perfect for a long stay. I had the chance to try several dishes from the extensive menu, and I have to say that I haven't been disappointed with the quality, the taste and freshness of the food. The restaurant and outside terrace are facing the sea, offering a wonderful spot to watch the local fishermen or just enjoy an al fresco drink. The resort benefits from an ideal location, in front of secluded Small Tabinay beach and a short ride or walk from town. Settling here, you'll be equal distance from all the marvels PG has to offer. Cherry on the cake, everything can be organised from the resort, from dives, excursions or motorbikes rental. But all of this will be worthless without the kindness of Sean and his team. The entire team is efficient, professional and always smiling. On the wall next to the bar, you'll find an interview of Sean's wife Mylene. I invite you to read it, it summarise all."

"We stayed at Badladz Beach Resort during the “Shoot for a Photobook” photo tour with Sir Noli Gabilo, organized by PictureBooks. This was our home base throughout the trip, and it was a wonderful choice. The resort has a relaxing atmosphere with a pool, a cozy dining area, and a beachfront perfect for unwinding. There are comfortable lounge chairs and hammocks ideal for resting between shoots. They also offer services like Pampered Spa treatments and diving sessions, though we didn’t get the chance to try them. We stayed in Room 202, which was equipped with wi-fi, air conditioning, a safety deposit box, clothes hanger, a hot shower, etc. I slept soundly and had no issues with the room. Food-wise, I especially enjoyed their adobo, quesadilla, and mushroom soup. The soup was on the runny side, which I personally prefer as a brothy style. Overall, the flavors were excellent and the portions generous."

"Always a nice place to stay, if you stay as hotelguest, or drink a coffee in the restaurant, if its at noon or middle of the night, the employees are 100% there to make your stay comfortable, came here many times for the last 8 years, and never had a single complaint."
