We had an exceptional experience at Arkipelago Divers and Beach resort. It started with Amy greeting us on the beach as we disembarked from our private boat taxi and the personalized service continued to make us feel like family for our entire stay. We stayed in the Villa Room which gave us a gorgeous balcony overlooking the ocean and a separate sitting area with couch and table perfect for cameras and battery charging. They have given attention to all the little details including a charging outlet with four plug ins and multiple usb ports, and fridge with a carafe that was easily filled with fresh water right outside the room. The full board plan allowed us to make our choice from the extensive menu and all our meals proved to be outstanding....highlights included the French toast on homemade bread, the chicken noodle soup, pork sisig and homemade Chinese dumplings. The dive shop was organized and professional, Nitrox was included for all our dives and our guide Nicko catered to all our requests including wrecks teeming with life, soft coral gardens that felt like diving in an aquarium, and the Canyons to view a huge school of jacks. Our favourite part was that all the dive sits are extremely close, you load up the boats steps from the dive shop and all surface intervals were spent sipping ginger tea and noshing on the occasional cinnamon bun back at the resort. Our airport transfers, from and back to Manila, with Arkipelago's driver, were seamless and comfortable. We are already discussing when we will return to Arkipelago for an outstanding boutique diving experience.
