A couple of friends and I stayed for a night at this quaint bed & breakfast as we were passing through the bucolic towns of southern Leyte. They currently don't have any dive-related services even though their name suggests that they do. But Yvonne, our very charismatic host, can refer you to nearby dive centers in Padre Burgos and/or outrigger... More

I'm not exaggerating when I say that Yvonne and her crew are the best guest house operators I have met. They truly made us feel at home. They treated us like real guests rather than just customers and did everything to make us happy and comfortable. During our stay I came down with something and spent days sick in bed.... More

Sometimes you find a place that you find very difficult to put into words, Michael's Resort and Dive is one of those. Nevertheless I will try to explain why we would recommend this place to anyone and everyone we meet. The resort is beautiful, native style huts right on the beach with a stunning view that are incredibly comfortable, spacious... More

After reading all the positive reviews we decided to drive by Michael's resort and found the most welcoming place to stay in the Philippines. We had a unforgettable time with Yvonne, her Husband Mario, Agnes, Bong and Maritis. They were outstanding helpful with everything and from the first moment we feel like coming home. For the time of our stay... More

I loved this perfect family place in Leyte. Everything was just perfect for us. It is a family run BandB located on one of the only sand beach of the area, the view is great from their garden on the restaurant table on the top of the beach. The bungalow was really clean, the bed confortable. In fact, I think... More

Michael's stands out as by far the most welcoming place we have stayed at throughout our several trips to South-East Asia and the Philippines. Yvonne, Mario, Agnes, Baby and Jess are a fantastic team that runs like a well-operated business but feels like a big family that's happy to take you in. They are a delightful bunch with a wicked...

MIchael's Resort is quite simply one of the most friendly places I have ever stayed in. After arriving after 7pm I was given a really warm welcome by the owners Yvonne and Mario, shown to my private beachfront bungalow adjoining the main house and asked what I would like to eat. This isn't like a lot of resorts where staff... More

The guesthouse is beautiful and by the ocean! We got the best view of the sunset and sunrise! The rooms are clean and the owner will go out of her way to make sure that everyone has everything they need. Yvonne, the owner, welcomed us into her place and took care of us like we were family.

A group of us showed up in Burgos one afternoon without any reservations and went for a walk trying to find reasonably priced accommodation. Most places mentioned in the travel guides we had with us were booked, and others were incredibly expensive. After about 5 hours, a mysterious person dressed in orange directed us to Whaleshark Divers. Whaleshark Divers (formerly... More
