We had a perfect stay at Sogod Bay. Diving was excellent and so was the food. We were somewhat disappointed about the fact that half the group had a room in the other side. "Across the street" is somewhat understated.... But all and all certainly a big thumbs up!

Service and level of organization of both the resort and the dive operation are top notch for the Philippines. Rooms are more functional than charming but comfortable and good value nonetheless. Kitchen is good. Prices for food and rooms is very competetive. Diving is good. The sanctuary right in front of the resort is a highlight with lots of fish... More

I stayed at this resort at the end of Mar to first week of April. The aim of this trip was primarily to snorkel with whalesharks and to do a night dive at the highly-acclaimed. Padre Burgos pier. I flew into Tacloban airport and the resort arranged the 3-3.5 hrs land transfer from the airport to the resort. Upon arrival,... More

We stayed there in February and we can describe it shortly: excellent service, amazing whale sharks and good dive sides. It´s only a litle bit lonely, but it is a location, which we can advise. We stayed in a ocean view cottage, which was a basic accommodation, but you are normally there only to sleep.

I have stayed here for a few days each year for the last five years and it grows on me. This in purely a diving resort with diving activities starting a 0830 each morning. The diving is second to none with a variety of reef and muck diving...the biodiversity has to be seen to be believed. Each year I see... More

I travelled to SBGR with two friends for a stay of 5 nights. Each of us had an Ocean View Cottage. We completed 9 reef/wall dives and a whale shark day trip. The Dives were of great quality, with the Dive-masters / crew very helpful and friendly. Accommodation was fine for the purpose of the trip and quite good value.... More

Stayed in one of the appartments which are basic but very comfortable with everything you need and inexpensive. Fridge was always stocked with icecold beers. Walk to the main complex is just 3 minutes. Whaleshark trip was a good and natural experience and is quite good value when one considers the amount of fuel involved. Food needs a little more... More

I stayed for 4 nights at Sogod Bay Resort in mid-Feb, 2013. My goal was to see whalesharks which I did. In fact, I had a total of 7 encounters, including 2 really nice long ones. I also dove a little although I must admit that the diving was not as good as I had hoped. I stayed in a... More

Padre Burgos is a very small and quiet area with few accommodation/dive options. However after checking out a few of the other options, we were very happy we chose this one. We stayed in the ocean view room, which certainly doesn't have any frills attached and the room is plain, but nonetheless you have everything you need and it is... More

We really liked Sogod Bay, the staff are really great and the resort is located in a stunning part of the Philippines. Unfortunately we were there when a Typhoon was coming through which was a pity as it meant we lost out on a couple of days diving. The ferries had all been suspended on our departure day so we...
