Room (Stargazer) was clean and bed was comfortable. It’s on the top of 2 smaller rooms below. So it does have stairs. It had a mini fridge and a big porch with a table/chairs and lounge chairs. Food was good that we had. If you can’t eat it all the kitchen will wrap for you and keep it in their fridge and you can have them reheat it for lunch the next day. Breakfast has a decent buffet with a different theme each morning. Grounds were clean and we enjoyed the cushioned sun loungers and that there were 2 different adult pools and 1 kids pool.

We had a great three nights at Pura Vida. Beautiful property with perfectly manucured gardens and excellent accommodations. The buffet breakfast was lovely with a different theme everyday. The resort is a short walk to a marine sanctuary that had some of the best snorkeling we've done in the Philippines. Highly recommended this resort. Wonderful helpful staff as well.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Experience from Top to Bottom. Pura Vida Dive Resort delivers on every level. What sets this property apart is not just the beautiful setting or quality amenities — it’s the team. From arrival to departure, every single person contributed to an outstanding stay. ✨ Team Excellence Across the Board This is a property where every role matters and every team member shines. The gardener ensures the grounds are immaculate and welcoming. The restaurant staff serve with genuine care and attentiveness. Reception made check-in and check-out effortless. The spa team provided professional, restorative experiences. Every interaction felt personal, respectful, and consistently excellent. 🤿 Diving Department — World Class The dive team is a key reason Pura Vida stands out. Highly professional, well-organized, safety-oriented, and deeply knowledgeable about the local underwater world — they elevated the entire diving experience. Whether you’re new to diving or a seasoned pro, this team delivers. Overall, Pura Vida Dive Resort is more than a hotel — it’s a community of professionals proud of their craft. Every part of the operation works in harmony to create an unforgettable stay. Highly recommended for travelers who value exceptional service, genuine hospitality, and a top-tier dive program.

Disliked: Amenities
Not a 4/5 star resort. This resort is fine, but has neither the facility nor the staff to be considered four or five stars. As such, it is overpriced. Pros: Location is beautiful and the grounds are well tended. The food, though extremely limited, is good. The staff are gracious. Cons: Meager breakfast options with no a la carte menu, limited dinner menu and you must order before 5p. No room service. No pool-side service. No 24hr service. Running water failed twice during my 3-day visit (zero water pressure to the entire facility). Pool towels not stocked or refreshed. Architecture is motel-style with public walkway and entrance outside of the window, so you have to choose between privacy and daylight. Older, dark decide and fixtures not meeting the high standards of a 4-star property.
