Great pool, very comfy beds, nice staff, tasty breakfast and unlimited drinking water in environment friendly reusable water containers. About a 30 min walk to Panagsama Beach road with restaurants etc, or a tricycle/tuk tuk ride.

The stay was great, the dive shop is also really good. The customer service is excellent, they really go out of their way to make your stay as good as possible and this is what gives it something unique. The only let down was the breakfast. Also their restaurant seems to have limited options from the menu etc so we never had lunch or dinner there.

This is a dive resort with an amazing house reef! Went to pescador island from this resort and snorkelling was better on the house reef. Take a tricycle into town. It’s worth visiting. Food was good and great spot for three nights

Great amenities, good service, quiet rooms, clean and safe. Good snorkeling right off the property. Reef is starting to deteriorate with hardly any large fish left. The drop off has some of the best snorkeling.

The place was beautiful and nice and staff are all friendly. However, its not easily accessible to go anywhere else since the resort is far away from the main road. It wouldve been nice if the resort would offer a free shuttle going even to the main road and back.

A nice hotel on a spectacular reef. Unfortunately we were unable to dive due to illness but the snorkeling was just fine, over the course of 2 days we saw 5 turtles, a sea snake, lots of sea horses and many fish. The bed was just ok, and breakfast was average but sufficient. A short tricycle ride to town.

Nice mini oasis in a desolate part of Moalboal! Very quiet, clean, and private with knowledgeable staff. Food options are limited but the main area is a 5-10 minute drive or 30 minute walk. Awesome diving for turtles, sardines and bioluminescence.

The property was well taken care of and safe. The pool was really nice along with the beds in the room being very comfortable. Staff was helpful anytime. Would have given it a 5 star except 2 things; the wifi hardly worked in our room and the water was shut off in the mornings. I mentioned the wifi to the staff but there was nothing that could be done. I had to ask for the water to be turned on first thing in the mornings. Luckily the water pressure was good and worked well throughout the day and night. The cell sefice was akso good in the area so we didn't have a problem using our own service.

We loved our stay there because of the access to the coral reef right at the back of the property. We would spent hours snorkeling as the reef is amazing (when you get to the wall on the deeper side you can see plenty of turtles), and even did a discovery dive which was brilliant (a bit expensive though but it was with the hotel). The room was a bit dated but clean and comfortable. Cooked breakfast was lovely, and the restaurant had nice food. It's a bit further away from town so you always need to take a tricycle to do anything else than snorkeling (200 pesos for 2 one way).

Maintenance in troble

We had to move one to aother room for some reason. A room with seaview was nice having terrace and all electronics were functioned but the other room near swimming pool has no terrace and TV connection was not seamless, airconditioner is uncontrollable. Windows were facing public so could not open them.

Overall I felt like this hotel was overpriced for what you got. We stayed in a deluxe room, which was nice. Bed was comfortable. It was too hot and the AC could not keep it cool enough, but they did also have a fan. The shower was only lukewarm, not hot, but not a huge deal as it was so hot. Restaurant was ok. Large breakfast portions were nice. They had a shuttle to the main town for 100 php per person. Laundry was crazy expensive 350php/kg, but it was clean. We appreciated that they arranged a driver for us to go to Osmena Peak and Kawasan Falls for us last minute (was 5000php). We did do 2 dives with the dive shop on site. We had been planning to do more, but were not very impressed with them, so did not do more dives. They didn’t seem eager to have us dive with them (didn't respond to our email ahead of time and didn’t acknowledge us when we went down to the shop to look at the dive sites/schedule and to inquire). However we did still book. The boat was not set up well for diving (no designated spots for tanks and awkward to get ready), but the main reason we didn’t do more dives was because they pushed to get us to jump right away without checking the gear or doing a buddy check. They did let me do my checks after I said I wanted to, but then again tried to get me to jump immediately again the next dive without doing buddy checks. The did have good equipment. The fruit and tea/coffee on the boat was nice. Lastly we did appreciate the free cold water refill stations.

This is probably one of the nicest resorts in Moalboal. Only a few things that keep it from being a true 5 star resort. Pros: - Staff. Staff is readily found and accommodating to any requests. Everyone was very polite. - Snorkel/Diving. The snorkel area is amazing. Tons of corals and fish to see, and you don’t have to leave the resort! All free and included with your stay. - Organized excursions. Transport for each excursion is handled by on-site staff. So no waiting around for a driver to show up. Cons: - Dining. Food is very good, but limited options and quite a bit overpriced compared to the restaurant a few minutes walk away. Included breakfast was very good though. - Swimming Pool. The pool is large and deep (6 feet) which is nice. Could use a better cleaning though. The filter was only on for one of the 3 days we stayed. - No Beach. Not really within their control, but understand there is no swimming area for the ocean. The snorkeling area is completely covered in coral. Great for snorkeling, but a no go for casual swimming/playing. Not really a con, just something to be aware of. Minor mention: All restaurants and amenities were closed and unavailable to guests during their holiday party. No prior notice was given to us. Cons are minor, I would stay again if visiting Moalboal. Overall nice resort. Just expect to pay a bit more during your stay for food and drinks.

Our family had a lovely stay at Turtle Bay Dive Resort! Comfortable room and really nice bathroom, kids loved the pool and game room. The food/drinks were fantastic and staff were excellent. We saw sea turtles and the sardines run on our snorkeling excursion to Pescador Island. Turtle Bay had a quiet, relaxing vibe and beautiful ocean views.
