I never actually stayed with Scandi, but I did have 13 very enjoyable dives with them. I found the hotel and diving staff to be genuinely friendly and very professional in all matters relating to diving. I can wholeheartedly recommend this dive resort, whatever level of diver you are they will meet your needs and make you feel at ease.... More

I can't imagine a better place to learn to dive. The area is beautiful, the accomodation comfortable, the location is peaceful, the diving was great (sea turtles!), but the best part of Scandi is the staff. Everyone was very welcoming and it fast became a place that feels like home. Conan is a patient teacher with a good sense of... More

I finished my PADI open water certification at Scandi Divers from April 20 to April 22 2013. I was met with nothing but flexibility and the entire staff went out of their way to make sure I had a good experience. The instructors are very good, the svimming pool is decent for the confined water exercises and the diving is... More

Absolutely everything is taken care of for you! Dives are easy and close, with off gassing done back at the Resort. My wife and I,... More

I started SCUBA diving as an act of sheer curiosity. Thanks to Scandi Divers (I can definitely blame them for this!), this might just be my next big obsession. Big La Laguna Beach may be your better option when you are heading to Sabang in Puerto Galera. Aside from the fact that there is a better beachfront here, the area... More

I booked 4 nights at Scandi Divers in late October 2012. The staff was friendly and helpful in showing us around and finding things to do. Their diving staff is also great as I thoroughly enjoyed diving there (the equipment is modern and up to date). I booked the deluxe room which comes with a decent size flat screen and... More

I stayed here for 4 days in August 2012. I can rate this place as 5 stars as the service level and friendliness of the staff is excellent. Every time I walked by the said hello and asked if I needed anything. The housekeeper would ask me if I needed the room serviced and the front desk people would ask... More

I stayed in a standard room, which is good for budget travellers(approx.2000peso), and if you want more space and pay a little extra, you can stay upstairs overlooking the bay. You have the flexibility to move to other rooms nextdoor at Campbells Resort, as they are under same ownership, incase you want a cheaper room(approx.1000peso), or just enjoy a change... More
