Just got back from 10 days, in the Philippines. Stayed at El Galleon Resort, on Mindoro Island. It was a wonderful resort and Asia divers have to be the best valet dive operation I've ever seen! On to top of that, the people couldn't have been nicer. Now, underwater: lots of currents and hard to take pictures. Some currents were... More

Stayed 2 weeks at El Galleon last February and dived with Asia Divers. Good location. Resort is friendly and rooms are simple but comfortable. Food is good. Asia Divers dive center was outstanding. The set up for your gear is amazing, the staff is service oriented. Great place to experience great diving. More

Stayed 1 week at El Galleon, dived with Asia Divers. These folks are very friendly, very service oriented. My 18- yr old on had his own "budget room" , my husband & I an " ocean view" room. Apparently the family rooms are a bit crowded for a large teenager. This worked out great. Just be warned - the ocean... More

El Galleon Resort's staff and Asia Diver's staff went out of their way to provide great hospitality. The resort is located conveniently right on the water. The rooms lacked any drawer and shelf space, but were otherwise comfortable with good AC and ceiling fans. Chef Antoine spoiled us. The diving on Verde Island was outstanding. More

We had this trip planned 2 years out in advance. We kept going back and forth about which island and what resort we were going to stay at. With help from Ultimate Dive Travel, we decided on El Galleon. After experiencing the resort, I am glad we chose El Galleon..The rooms were more perfect for divers. You couldn't have asked... More

Obviously a great dive resort but for me as a non-diver it was probably the best fun I've had on holiday with friends. Arriving with guys from Australia and Hong Kong, Alan and his team provided a high class experience. Antoine the chef produced great food and there were some interesting choices on the wine list. Loads to do around... More

Difficult to explain in a short answer. The resort might be considered a little tired and basic by some standards, however, could be the best option in the area. Rooms and public areas are clean and maintained, although certainly nothing fancy. The restaurant, as well as "The Point" bar were good. Their chef was very "hands on" with both staff... More
