Nataasan Beach Resort and Dive Center

We paid CAN 80$ a night for an ocean view bungalow. The water in the shower was really cold and the drain in the shower didn’t work properly, so you’re standing in your own soapy dirt. Works to build new units are going on right next to the bungalow and the surrounding yard is not really kept clean and has litter lying around. The “resort” boasts a private beach for those bungalows, but after going down the stairs, you end up at a tiny little ***** of a rocky/sandy beach with lots of seaweed in the very shallow water. Not very appealing. The public beach downtown is more attractive, to be honest. Also, on our first night, some visitors were howling in the microphone “showing off” their karaoke skills till 10 PM. Not the kind of peace and quiet I was expecting in a “resort”. Anyway, what approaches Nataasan most of a ”resort” is the price it rents it’s rooms for. And the “parking lot” is a mud pool lacking space, just like it was 10 years ago. Honestly, we are rather disappointed about our stay here when you take the cost into consideration. Oh, and when you pay with a credit card, there is a 5% (!!) surcharge. On a positive note, the pool was nice.

The place was good. Pool was nice. An access to the beach is available but not for people who has asthma or hate stairs, as you need to use stairs to go to the beach. The only thing that we dont like is that we have to pay an additional 200 pesos for an early check in (Im not sure if thats normal to all resorts but this is the only resort that we have been and we need to pay extra for early check-in), I was not able to buy a souveneer from the store because it was close. (Sad) Breakfast was serve on a first come first serve basis, so if you will wake up late, you will be serve the last and it will not be delivered to your room, its serve at the cafe with the awesome view of the beach. The room was so cozy and nice 😍 the bathroom has hot and cold showers and faucet. You will find extra pillows inside the closet. Our room was beach view, so will definitely hear the wind and the water which is very calming. You can swim at the pool until 10 in the evening. The reception stuff are nice. Oh they also have island tour but when were there, it was not available due to the weather. (Sad) but it was very affordable, if I remember it right, it was only for 1,500 for the Island Tour. The overnight stay cost us 1,800+. I am pretty sure that you will enjoy your stay at this resort.
