I just got back from the perfect six days in Puerto Galera at Blue Ribbon. I found it through these reviews on TA and they were on the money. All my diving experience has been in the Caribbean, and this blew that away. All my vacations lately have been at fancy resorts, with the kids, girlfriend, etc – this was... More

Blue Ribbon Dive Resort easily earns the top place among all the dive resorts I've ever stayed in. Its location isn't ideal if you're one for a nice walk along the beach--there's no beach left during high tides--but that is [1] not usually what you go to a dive resort for, [2] probably no fault of theirs, but of some...

Hi Thanks for your review and your nice comments about our resort. If I think you are who I think you are, I don't think you gave the diving here as much of a chance as you could of. Sabang isn't the nicest of beachs, and is a bit seedy, yet we are on Small Lalaguna beach, which is a... More

We came for a few days to show our kids PG, as my husband and I had been here many times in the 90's. Not knowing PG well anymore we asked some friends and checked out Tripadvisor for a family oriented place with good diving and good accomodation. Blue Ribbon fit the bill well. We stayed in the penthouse (me,... More

Just got back from another few days at Blue Ribbon...and the place just keeps getting better! I really, really like it here. The chillout seats at the front are a touch of genius and a great way to meet people - just sit there and relax and enjoy the view. The food is good and they are quite happy to... More

I came here after reading trip advisor and it's great. No frills but everything you need - and great value. What impressed me the most was the diving - the instructors are enthusiastic and make sure you get the most out of every dive. Food not the best in PG, but perfectly fine More

I've been here so many times now that it feels like a second home, so I'd forgotten to review it!! Blue Ribbon is great value for money with newly renovated rooms that have everything important (a/c, tv, hot shower, fridge, safe for valuables, and even a balcony/terrace to hang out on for each room) It's not high-end luxury but is...
