Sangat Island Dive Resort

The rooms are basic but really good. Just need stronger fans as it was very humid. But the people and the place is amazing. Our tour was excellent, the local crew who took us for the crew were the best. The food served in an island was one of the best we ate. Also the food served at the resort was by far the best we ate.

I had a wonderful week at Sangat Island Dive Resort. Really I cannot overstate how special the place is. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the room is clean and comfortable (no problem without air conditioning, there is a lovely breeze), the food is delicious, the location is beautiful and so peaceful, and the dive shop is fantastic It was beyond my expectations, just perfect. I did my PADI advanced certification (big thanks to Tom!). The wrecks are very cool, spectacular coral and a variety of fish. I also enjoyed the Coron Island Adventure with Clyde - such a fun, well-planned day to more spectacular places. I should also note that I was completely comfortable traveling alone there. Sangat proves that we can have a lovely vacation and still respect the environment. We can minimize our impact. I’ve heard other “eco resorts” aren’t really protecting the local environment. Sangat is genuine.

Pulling up to the island on the boat felt like a dream. It was GORGEOUS. We were welcomed and shown to our hut. I felt so lucky we stayed here and really wished we had another week. It wasnt too hot so it didnt matter we didnt have AC in our beach hut. We did have a problem with 5 monkeys getting in while one of us was napping but that was her fault for not locking the screen. We had a beach massage our last night which was relaxing and great. The final day I did a half day excursion with another couple we met on the boat on the way in. I have never snorkeled in as beautiful spot as I did that day. The coral garden was beyond words. I could have spend all day swimming and watching all the underwater life. The hot springs as sunset was the cherry on top. The resort was worth every penny and more. Id love to plan a time to come back and stay much longer.

Fantastic stay. Great beach and good activities in the area
