SLAM'S Garden Dive Resort

Thanks to the whole team at SLAM’S we had the best time in Malapascua! The resort and rooms are simple, clean and confortable. The pool side is awesome, and lovely to hang out at after a long day of diving/snorkeling. We did our advanced diving course with SLAM’S and enjoyed the experience. We felt super privileged to dive with thresher sharks and all the beautiful animals living around the island. What really made our experience 5⭐️ was the team! Everyone from Milky at reception, to JR our diving instructor, made us feel super welcome and helped us too many times to count (helping us to arrange transportation, scan documents, plan a birthday surprise… to name a few 😉) We were super sad to leave SLAM’S and are already looking forward to being back. We will miss everyone (and of course our best friend Pit-Pit, please give her a special kiss from us 🐕😘)

The pool, location, the breakfast were amazing, and the room was big enough and comfortable. I did not use their diving services.

> Hygiene. For sure. Loved the cleanliness of the room. Although the poolwater could have been cleaned more often. > Ability for A/C in the room. Really necessary and didn’t blast the bed / face while sleeping (but very loud so bring earplugs). > Good in house food (if you order the local dishes, don’t order European;)), nice portions. Comfortable that you do not have to good look around and get a decent amount of fresh food during the day! > Hot water in shower - so happy. > Diving. Great service, good gear, nice guide/boat! Would definitely recommend.

What a beautiful stay!! The hotel space was humble but very comfortable. The staff made the stay truly special. If you are coming to dive, I could not recommend this place enough. Santiago, Alejandro, Dex, and all the kind employees on the boat made the dive trips so fun!! It felt like we were instantly part of the Slams family. The beds were comfortable and housekeeping came through to clean the room each day, which was nice given all the sand we tracked in. The hotel is very near to the pier so you can easily walk once arriving on the island. Many phenomenal restaurants are nearby (Angelina’s and Amihan were our favorites) and beautiful beaches as well! Cannot recommend enough :)

It was perfect for what my husband wanted, he was really happy to dive with the hotel and they provided such a professional and inclusive approach too as he explained there were a whole array of different diving abililities, they were adaptive and knowledgeable. I got to relax by the pool with my Kindle, which i was happy about. The hotel was helpful with information of where to go to gain thkngs (such as cash), and the food was so yummy as well as reasonably priced. (We recommend the bancoffee shake to drink too, delicious!) The beds could have been a little more comfortable for me. However, I always believe this is such an individual person's preference, not a hotels fault - I don't particularly like a hard matress, yet my husband did not mind. The rooms are very basic, but we enjoyed our stay here and would return.
