World-class diving team + pure paradise = absolute 10/10 Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (10/10)
Pros:

Palaka Resort is beautiful — think tranquil gardens, comfy rooms. And the real stars here are the diving staff. From the moment we walked into the dive center, we felt like family.

These guys don’t just run dives — they curate underwater adventures. Briefings were thorough but fun, gear was immaculate.

Safety, smiles, marine knowledge — they’ve got it all. The stay at Palaka Resort is magic. Already planning our return trip. 🤿🐠

Cons:

None

Pros:

Gar nichts.

Cons:

Wir haben uns sehr auf einen schönen Urlaub und eine schöne Unterkunft auf Siargao gefreut. Leider war in unserem Zimmer die Klimaanlage mit schwarzem Schimmel befallen. Man roch es auch stark und mein Freund und ich haben schon nach kurzer Zeit Kopfschmerzen bekommen. Wir wollten auf keinen Fall eine Nacht in dieser Unterkunft bleiben, leider konnte man uns kein anderes Zimmer anbieten. Daraufhin sind wir abgereist und die Unterkunft weigert sich uns das Geld zurück zu erstatten obwohl wir nicht einmal eine halbe Stunde in Zimmer waren. Absolute Frechheit!!!! Buche Sie auf keinen Fall hier, wenn Ihnen ihre Gesundheit am Herzen liegt.

כשנבוא לשירגאו שוב נחזור ישררררר לשם
Pros:

מלון מצוין למי שמחפש איזון בין פינוק לשפיות כלכלית. הוא לא הכי זול באזור, אבל מבחינתנו התמורה למחיר מעולה, והתחושה היא של ריזורט קטן ואינטימי. המיקום מרכזי מאוד, ממש על גנרל לונה, אך בלי הרעש וההמולה של הרחוב עצמו.

החדרים מרווחים, נעימים ונוחים, והצוות אדיב וזמין תמיד לכל בקשה או עזרה. הבריכה כיפית ונעימה ומוסיפה לאווירה הכללית של המקום. חשוב לציין שדלת החדר היא חלון הזזה, כך שאין סגירה הרמטית ובידוד מלא מרעשים.

בנוסף, הצוות עזר לנו לסגור ואן לשדה התעופה, ויש גם אפשרות להשכיר אופנועים ישירות מהמלון. בסך הכל, התמורה שמקבלים בהחלט שווה את המחיר והשהות הייתה מוצלחת מאוד.

Cons:

בבקרים יש שם צלילות היכרות מה שיכול קצת להשפיע אם רוצים להכנס לבריכה (כדי לא להפריע- אבל אפשר להכנס)

Magnifique établissement
Pros:

Un magnifique Resort. Nous y avons passés 5 nuits. Très bon emplacement.
C’est paisible, en retrait de la route, calme
Le rapport qualité prix est excellent comparé à d’autres hôtels aux Philippines
Bien équipé, cuisine partagée, literie confortable et une salle de bain digne de ce nom!
Le personnel est super attentionné ! Je recommande vivement

Cons:

Les cours de plongée qui monopolise l’espace piscine
Réseau wifi pas top (en cours de résolution)

Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

Horrible infrastructure, disrespectful attitude, black water coming out of the sink every morning, and sometimes the water doesn’t work at all. On the last night, we asked to be compensated for at least one night due to the terrible experience we went through, and we were spoken to in a dismissive and disrespectful way, as if we were lying. Stay away.
