Reviews and Ratings
My experience at the resort was quite mixed. On one hand, the service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to assist me. On the other hand, the diving experience was disappointing with poor visibility and overcrowded dives. The location was nice, but the area outside felt a bit neglected. Overall, there were some positive aspects but also significant drawbacks.
My stay at Mike's Dauin Beach Resort was absolutely fantastic, with stunning diving experiences and extremely attentive staff. The rooms were well-maintained and offered great comfort, while the dining experience was enjoyable, making it a great value for money overall. However, I did find the dining options a bit pricey for some items on the menu. The location is beautiful, right on the beach, and the diving facilities are top-notch.

My stay at Mike's Dauin Beach Resort was memorable with clean and spacious rooms, excellent diving experiences, and an overall friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
