We did stay for a day tour of the island. Took our lunch and had our snorkeling. We enjoyed staying fronting the beach resort first for a short swim and sometime for picture taking. Nice place for a change. Then waited for our pump boat to transport us back to the mainland Negros particularly in Zamboaguita. Very nice place for... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at Apo Island Beach Resort 2 nights, which for us was enough time to get into "being off the grid" but not too long to be without AC and running water. The location is great! Right on the beach, an easy walk to the village but secluded enough so that at night you feel like... More

We enjoyed our most relaxing Philippines vacation during a four-day stay at Apo Island Beach Resort.  A quiet island off the southern coast of Negros Oriental, Apo Island features one of the best preserved marine reserves in the Philippines. It is a great place for scuba diving, snorkeling, or just chilling out on the beach.  Apo Island has only two... More

If you are looking for a 5 star resort with all its amenities don't come here. It's one of the very reasons we keep going back. If however you want somewhere secluded and friendly next to the sea with its own beach sheltered between limestone cliffs then this is it. Very friendly staff and a pleasant beach bar makes for...

Stayed overnight here with wife and 3 kids on Oct 30, 2011. Some important bullet points: - Apo Island beach Resort is a diver's paradise. If you're a diver then the accommodations here are as Shangri-La as you can expect! - People who have negative comments about Apo expected its facilities to be similar to Boracay, Cebu, Palawan or Bohol...

I can't believe people are being so negative about this beautiful place. I admit, I missed a shower a little. Especially after diving all day. But what do you expect on a beautiful island like this? There are only 2 resorts here, I stayed 2 nights. The fresh water bucket for shower and salt water for toilet is fine and... More

You shouldn't go here unless you enjoy paying a LOT to practically go camping. We were supposed to stay here for four nights, but left after two. The upsides: * Incredibly nice and helpful staff! We had no problems whatsoever with the staff, on the contrary we found the boatmen, waitresses/reception and dive shop people very friendly, keen to do... More

I almost booked 8 nights at El Dorado Beach Resort in Dauin but decided to split our stay with 4 nights on Apo Island. I wish I hadn't! The beach and view is really, truly beautiful! BUT the resort is overpriced and badly maintained! We had originally booked the "Family Room" - a mosquito filled, dark, dingy room up some... More

It should be the best resort of Apo Island but it's not! So expensive, "mahal" like will say Filipino people, around 3 000 php! To sum up: we arrived, the room was not ready, it was dirty and there so many water inside the bathroom because no current water, just bucket of water! No welcome drink, nothing, just to wait...

We read such great reviews of this resort but when we arrived we realized most where far from the truth. On arrival our banca to transfer us was 2 hours late and in the end we had to order our own, which also cost us more. We booked this chartered banca weeks in advance and they still could not deliver.... More
