Hotel 3 Bintang di Culion

If you are looking for a dive resort for divers, owned/managed by divers, with excellent knowledge of the WWII wrecks, then this is the place for you. The resort is located ~30 min boat ride from Coron, on a beautiful isolated bay on north Chindonan Island. You are made feel welcome from the minute you set foot on the jetty, and part of the family atmosphere surrounded by chill vibe. We took a 10 day 14 dive package, which is excellent value for money (breakfast/dinner included), so that we could relax after a morning dive (or two) and catch the cool afternoon breeze on our balcony. The views and seclusion of the resort, friendliness of the staff, plus excellent (safe) wreck diving, is 5-star quality.

Airport pickup, TV movies, restaurant ceiling fans, reservations for dinner were all broken/didn’t work (including telling us after arrival that it’s 4K per person for the boat transfer, when we had been quoted 2.5k at time of booking and we even saw an advert at the resort for locals to come to the island for the day for 2.5k INCLUDING LUNCH?!?). Many other things were mismanaged or not managed at all including only orange, green, and water melon as fruit for breakfast. What is this some cheap American hotel?!? When I asked, I got a banana and some under ripe papaya. Good effort by the very nice staff who are always willing to help but where is the manager of this place. Lots more management, lots more training necessary to justify the high prices and they’re difficult to get to location.
