Atmosphere Resorts & Spa

Absolutely brilliant dive holiday. The service by all staff is wonderful. The resort is lovely with beautiful rooms, a great spa, good food and just a good vibe. The diving offers something for everyone. I will definitely go again! Enjoy.

If I could give Atmosphere Resort more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. From the moment we arrived, it was pure magic. Our room was incredibly fresh, clean, and beautifully designed, with every amenity we could need and so many thoughtful touches that made it truly comfortable. Delicious breakfasts, cocktails by the lovely clean pools, amazing massages, and a romantic treehouse dinner under the stars where the setup and food completely blew us away. Every meal was top tier. Yoga was both relaxing and challenging, and the free drinks with live music on Thursday night had the perfect vibe. The hospitality was fantastic, with towels, food, and drinks always brought promptly with a smile. A big reason we chose Atmosphere was their inspiring community initiative, the Atmosphere Soup Kitchen ❤️ We were blessed to spend a morning volunteering, serving 85 school children hot meals and vitamins. It was a humbling and heartwarming experience that we’ll never forget. Our Apo Island trip was another highlight, with the friendliest crew and thoughtful touches like hot towels, drinks, and lunch on the water. Special thanks to Ruby, Arvin, Noe, Larry, and Hope for their warmth, care, and the best service we’ve ever experienced. While the resort is on the higher end cost-wise, the experience more than justified it. Atmosphere Resort is pure magic ❤️ If I could rate higher, I would, and we’ll 100% be back with our kids one day!

Amazing place and the team from the reception, to bar and restaurant is amazing I wish I could say longer. Thanks to the team❤️

Incredible on every level. The welcome, the room, the facilities, the staff, the service, the dives, the food and drinks, everything was perfect. We will be back.

Food quality average and overpriced

**Atmosphere Resort and Spa Review - Overall Rating: 7.5/10** We recently spent over two weeks at Atmosphere Resort and Spa, and overall had a wonderful stay thanks primarily to the exceptional staff and outstanding dive operations. **Dive Center - Exceptional (5/5)** The dive center truly sets this resort apart. From managers Jan and Berlinda to our fantastic divemaster Sai, every member of the dive team exceeded expectations. Sai deserves special recognition for his keen eye in spotting marine life and his dedication to finding the creatures we requested to see. The entire operation runs like clockwork - dive schedules were always punctual, equipment was expertly maintained, and group sizes were perfectly intimate (often just one other diver joined my husband and me). The boat crew, captain, and support staff who handled tanks and equipment all contributed to making each dive day seamless and enjoyable. **Staff - Outstanding (5/5)** The service culture at Atmosphere is truly remarkable. Reception staff were consistently helpful with local recommendations and any questions that arose during our stay. The housekeeping team operated like well-coordinated ninjas - we'd leave our room only to return to find it immaculately cleaned and restocked with coffee and milk, yet we barely saw them during our entire stay. The bar staff and bartenders welcomed us with genuine smiles every day, creating a warm atmosphere during our lunch visits while clearly enjoying great camaraderie among themselves. The restaurant wait staff remembered our daily preferences - from drinks and food choices to our preferred seating - demonstrating the kind of personalized attention that makes a stay truly memorable. I requested a couple off the menu items for dinner during out stay and the kitchen staff did an excellent job satisfying my taste buds! Thank you. **Accommodations - Mixed Experience (6/10)** While the resort grounds are maintained immaculately, our room configuration was less than ideal. The bathroom, including the toilet, is located outside the main room - technically part of the suite but fully exposed to the outdoor elements. This means using the facilities or showering involves dealing with bugs, humidity, and mosquitoes, particularly uncomfortable after a hot shower when you're already sweating in the humid air. If we return, we would definitely request a room with an indoor, air-conditioned bathroom. Additionally, while the resort has backup generators for power outages (which did occur), the generator positioned directly outside our room was quite loud when it kicked in. **Food - Good but Room for Improvement (7/10)** The food quality was solid, though not exceptional. While some dishes were quite good, others were merely adequate. My main disappointment was the heavily Western-focused menu featuring pasta, pizza, and steaks. As travelers who seek authentic local cuisine experiences, we found the lack of local specialties disappointing. A daily local special would have been a welcome addition to showcase the destination's culinary culture. After two weeks, the static menu became repetitive, and the desserts were overly sweet for my taste. **Spa - Needs Improvement (2/10)** Unfortunately, the spa experience fell short of expectations. The outdoor treatment rooms lack air conditioning, making sessions uncomfortably hot and sweaty. More concerning was the lack of privacy - curtains remained wide open during treatments while construction was ongoing nearby, creating an uncomfortable situation where anyone walking by could observe sessions in progress. These issues significantly detracted from what should be a relaxing experience. **Gym - Disappointing (2/10)** The outdoor "warrior gym" concept doesn't work well in practice. With daily rainfall during our stay, equipment was consistently wet, and the outdoor location attracted numerous bugs. For the price point of this resort, an indoor facility with basic cardio equipment like treadmills would be expected and appreciated, especially for guests who prefer not to run on the main road or around the resort in low-light conditions. **Overall** Despite some facility shortcomings, the exceptional staff and world-class dive operations make Atmosphere Resort and Spa a destination worth considering, particularly for diving enthusiasts. The genuine warmth and professionalism of the entire team, combined with immaculately maintained grounds, create a welcoming atmosphere that compensates for other areas needing improvement. With better room selection and realistic expectations about certain amenities, this resort offers a solid vacation experience.

Atmosphere is a specal place with amazing people. The food, service, rooms were all exceptional. Ive been there twice and will go back again. Its the perfect island experience in the Philippines

We had 2 rooms, one with the private pool and the other was a family room. The room with private pool was wonderful. Hoping to see some over water pool rooms in the future, similar to the Maldives.

great place fantastic staff brilliant dive team , nothing is too much...WILL BE BACK! food is excellent and will help with anything

Had the best experience at Atmosphere Resort with super-friendly staff and excellent service. An amazing spa, nestled in the middle of nature, provides an exceptional experience. Got my son certified there as an Open Water diver with Jaan, who is an amazing instructor, knowledgeable and patient. The diving in Dauin is beautiful, and you get to see a lot of macro. Seahorses are easily found there, and of course, turtles. Totally recommended and definitely coming back.
