“Wonderful - Highlight of our philippines travels”
We had the most wonderful 4 night stay on Sangat island. The rooms are traditionally built so basic in appearance but spotlessly clean and spacious with good showers and comfortable beds and pillows. The food was really excellent for all meals, as was the service that accompanied it. The island is beautiful, truly felt like paradise surrounded by nature and wildlife ranging from baby rays along the shore line to the resident monkeys. We dived each day. The equipment and boats were of a high standard and the dive masters were great. The dive sites were all excellent with an abundance of marine life as well as the opportunity to explore the WWII wrecks.

Fantastic dive resort, on a paradise island. We rented the vila, which had its own private beach and a huge garden. It was absolutely amazing.

“Snorkellers this place is not just a divers domain - go, even if for a couple of nights.”
All staff are so wonderful. Service and care was top notch. I love snorkelling and my hubby loves monkeys- and Sangat delivered in spades. We went on a half day snorkelling around the island (organised at the resort) and snorkelled a boat wreck, saw an amazing Coral Garden only available to Sangat guests and went in the islands hot spring via kayak which was for a few minutes through the clear water mangroves. We were in the water 20 mins after the tour started! Best tour of our entire trip. Guide and captain were awesome. The resort is unique in being eco but very comfortable. There is a pool table, bars, great food (all meals included). The monkeys were great to see and watch but not annoying (we did not feed them as asked). We aren’t divers but heard good things from other guests. Tepid showers were fine.

“A place to forget about the world”
Sangat Dive Resort is a truly unique and special place. From the moment you arrive, you feel far from civilization - remote, isolated, almost with a survival-style vibe that makes the experience unforgettable. It is not a polished five-star resort, and that is exactly its charm. If you are looking for air conditioning, hot showers, and WiFi in your room, this may feel a bit hard core. There is no hot water in the showers, no air conditioning, and WiFi is available only in the public areas. But somehow, it all feels completely manageable. You adapt quickly, and the simplicity becomes part of the experience. For divers or anyone seeking a quiet, isolated escape, this is an exceptional choice. The location is stunning, the atmosphere is peaceful, and the overall feeling is one of true disconnection from the noise of everyday life. The service is excellent. Pickup and drop-off are coordinated seamlessly, almost like magic, and everything runs smoothly. Food is included and was very good, with a nice variety at every meal. If you embrace the raw beauty and simplicity, Sangat offers something rare - an authentic, off-the-grid experience that is hard to find elsewhere.

“Paradise...”
Our stay at Sangat Island Resort was exceptional from start to finish. It begins with a perfect airport pick-up, followed by a memorable boat crossing. Arriving at this private beach feels like stepping into a postcard. We visited in February, and while we feared the usual crowds in the Philippines, we were pleasantly surprised: on this small island, you feel privileged and almost alone in the world. The Highlights: Setting & Wildlife: The beachfront huts are beautiful. You live in harmony with nature—we even saw monkeys right in the resort Activities & Diving: The dive club is excellent, and the dives were simply magnificent. Snorkeling is also sublime (we saw turtles). A major highlight: kayaking to the hot springs. Even in high season, we were all alone there—true luxury. Dining: The food is excellent and varied; every meal was a delight. Overall, a truly heavenly stay. I highly recommend it for anyone seeking the wild beauty of Coron away from the crowds!

“Paradise for those who love sea, diving & nature”
It’s a cast away experience even more than perfect if you are diver. If you are not a diver the options are more limited, but snorkelling and kayaking and relaxing and disconnecting are great options too!!! The chalets are well thought, you don’t absolutely need AC, they are just lovely whether in the first row in front of the the sea or in the second row (we were in the second row and could see the sea while laying in bed: isn’t it a real luxury?). You sleep inside and outside at the same time as you can hear the jungle and the sea around you. We just LOVED IT. The cold shower isn’t really cold and perfect for local conditions. Hammocks and bamboo chairs were great in the terrace and below the bungalow which also features a private water source to clean your feet from sand before climbing the stairs. Wi-Fi in common areas was very strong. It was great NOT to have Wi-Fi in the bungalow! The food was excellent (I really don’t get why in some reviews here people complain), abundant and varied all the time, with vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, etc options at every single meal (breakfast, lunch, merenda, dinner). The complimentary transfers to/from the island/Coron town/airport were extremely efficient. I HIGHLY recommend this place!!!! My only regret is that we stayed only for 3 nights/4days, I would have loved to stay for a full week!

“The perfect idyllic escape, will be back”
Location was great, felt remote yet easy access to Coron and airport. Swimming / snorkelling on reef in front of accommodation was very special, as was kayaking to hot springs. Dive options throughout day first rate, most super close to resort so it wasn't a lot of travel time per dive. Food very good. Some very special sunsets late afternoon.

“Absolutely magical place – true island paradise”
Sangat Island Dive Resort is a true paradise. The island itself is incredibly beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly maintained — you can really feel how much care and attention they put into cleanliness and upkeep everywhere. The staff are exceptionally kind and welcoming, always smiling and genuinely happy to help. The bungalows are very comfortable and blend beautifully into the natural surroundings. The house reef is stunning, with colorful corals and plenty of sea turtles, and the dive team is absolutely fantastic — professional, friendly, and passionate about what they do. On land, the island is just as special: playful monkeys live on the island, and if you’re lucky, you can even spot fruit bats in the evenings. One of our favorite adventures was renting a kayak and paddling through the mangroves to the nearby hot springs — such a unique and unforgettable experience. The food was delicious and healthy, and we especially loved the evening desserts. Evenings were perfect for relaxing with a cocktail and playing billiards while enjoying the island atmosphere. Sangat Island is a very special place that we will remember forever. We truly hope to come back one day!
