The guides were knowledible about the dive sites and i saw creatures I have never seen before.

The resort itself is a little piece of paradise, with a great bar and restaurant.

The surrounding area is typically Filipino and there is good nightlife in the resort or just a trike ride away. read less

Everything you need from a dive resort, good food, service and fantastic guides. We had heard how good the muck diving was from friends and we were not disappointed. So many little critters everywhere it was a macro photographers wet dream. If you are looking to tick some rare critters off of your bucket list then dive here and especially at Liquid.

We met our dive instructor Russ who is a great guy who takes the lessons either slow or will let you set the pace for the training. We had some great adventures and saw the most beautiful reef and sea turtles. Definitely go to Apo island with Liquid.

The rest of the stay is also perfect. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are nice and clean. And the kitchen will amaze you. Thanks again to Russel and his girlfriend Rachel two great dive instructors who made sure our trip was unforgettable. read less

A week after booking an offers was posted on the website, we asked about if we were eligible for the offer but wernt as we booked outside of promotion time, a good will gesture of wine and T-shirt was given though. If you are wanting to go out of season possibly wait closer the time to book so you can take advantage of the offers they may do.
The resort is 500m down a dirt track off the main road, you can get a tricycle from the resort to Robinsons mall for 350pesos or you can go to the main road and get a public tricycle for 20peso per person, we also bargained a private tricyle from the main road.
Resort has 2 pools which we didn’t use, looks like 1 for dive training and another recreational pool.
Grounds are kept clean and well manicured.
24 hour security to the resort.

Diving – Dauin is renowned for muck diving so dont expect many coral dives. The muck dives have plenty to see with a good variety on each dive, including a few wreck vehicles.. the house reef was a nice coral drift dive with plenty to see to.
My guide, Jun, was fantastic, very good at seeing tiny critters, tried hard to find what I wanted to see, very helpfull setting up equipment, friendly and funny to. He has been diving a while but still has the diving passion and still enjoys every dive!
The equipment used is still in OK condition, I only used the reg and BCD but had no problems with them.
Most dives are close by so transport is usually in a jeepny, the odd close dive like san migel or mainit are in a small transport boat.
The Apo island dive there was problems with the boat they hired, battery problems ment we were waiting about 40mins before we set off to Apo and was also an hour late comming back as the battery discharged again on the last dive, hopefully they use a different boat in the future or make sure all boats carry a spare in future.

Lodges – If you want a lodge with a sea view you need to choose 1,7,8 or 15. We were stayed in number 11 and i wouldnt reccomended this one. It backs onto the restaurant/bar so think it might be noisy during high season also your privacy is non existent here, the walk ways to the bar and restaurant split off here so a lot of human traffic passes you.
Room was clean, shower hot and bed was comfy.
A mini bar, laundry service, hair dryer and shampoo are all available in the rooms. A small TV also provided if you want a relaxing evening after a busy dive day.
I do like a safe in rooms but unfortunately there are none in rooms here.

Food/drinks – Food is very good here. The food was well prepared, tasty and a decent portion size. There is a good variety on offer with a very good selection that caters for vegetarians. Drinks also have a good selection from smoothies to flavoured beers and also the popular happy hour 2for1 cocktails that run from 16:30-18:30.

We stayed for 8 days and can give you a rough gide of price for your budget.
AC Room- 32000peso or $600
BCD and regulator hire, 9 dives at dauin, an apo day dive all with nitrox, your sanctuary charges and your underwater camera charges – 26500peso or $500
All our food and drinks 14000peso or $270
As you can see its great value!!
All staff were friendly enough but a special tanks(excuse the pun) goes to Jun, Rhanda and Adrian who excelled in customer engagement and made the whole experience a lot more fun!!
Overall liquid is a very nice place for you to use for your stay in Dauin! read less
