More than one hundred steps lead down to Kookoo’s nest Eco-lodge, which comprises of six simple, comfortable, native-style bamboo beach cottages and rooms, with a central restaurant. They are set in a pocket of woodland that slopes steeply down to the edge of a small secluded sandy cove, facing the sunset. The buildings have been beautifully constructed by artisans from the village using traditional techniques, from locally sourced bamboo and the leaves of the Nipa-palm. The ladies from the village prepare excellent fresh food for the restaurant and see to guest’s everyday needs, while their husbands tend the herb gardens, carry provisions, and drive the boats. A small dive-shop offers tuition and diving on the beautiful coral reefs that surround the peninsula. Snorkeling gear is available for those who do not dive, and Kayaks can be rented for exploring Tambobo bay, fishing village and remote beaches.
Stunning relaxed hideaway. Beautiful beach and house reef. Excellent home cooked food. Stayed in the new ‘Heron’ cottage: set at the far end of the beach up some steps it is delightfully peaceful, well appointed and has incredible full sea views. Highly recommend coming to stay at Kookoo’s.

Situated in the Zamboanguita area, Mahi Mahi Dive Resort is the perfect place to experience Dumaguete and its surroundings. Situated only 23 km from the city center, guests are well located to enjoy the town's attractions and activities. With its convenient location, the property offers easy access to the city's must-see destinations. Every effort is made to make guests feel comfortable.
BOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE! We spent 3 weeks in 8 accommodations, and this is the only one we weren't happy with! BEWARE - tax is charged on top of the price that you see online. This is not the same for Philippine-owned hotels, only for this Russian-owned hotel. RUSSIAN OWNER ARGUED WITH ME OVER FOOD - in a painful situation that I struggle to forget, I ordered ribs. The smallest portion of ribs you've ever seen came out, and I ate them. I then asked if that was a full portion or not, and suggested that it must have been a starter portion. The female Russian owner came over and argued the toss with me for 20 mins at the table! I tried to back out of it and say I'd pay, but she wanted to continue to make my night even more depressing. DON'T BOOK THIS HOTEL! Ok, from the top... the place has a depressing atmosphere. The Russian owners are always sat, smoking in the non-smoking area, creating a strange, unfriendly atmosphere in the outdoor restaurant. People in the Philippines are happy, but all of the staff here seem depressed! The waitresses can't forge a smile, and the reception staff can't even manage to make a phone call to find a boat to the next island for you. We tried for 45 mins, and I ended up working it out myself! Some of the portions of food are small and EXTORTIONATELY over-priced. Wild dogs bark all night, like you've never heard in your life. The diving instructors are the most work-shy we saw in the Philippines. We attended a scuba trip just to snorkel on Apo Island, and unfortunately the instructors tried to end the trip after just two dives, which was at 1.30pm. We'd arrived at Apo at 1030. After discussion with the instructors, they agreed to stay another hour, but they made sure it was painful for us.

A truly tropical Philippines paradise beach Dive Resort. Located in Zamboanguita, close to Dumaguete, the resort is accessible but yet affords peace and tranquility. Lush gardens, private beach, two bars and an international restaurant await our guests. Our dive shop is a registered PADI Dive Resort and as such we can assure guests of high quality diver education, amazing fun-dive experiences locally and at Apo Island, as well as snorkel trips to see the turtles.
We went to Dumaguete for a friends visit, and she recommended this resort. We came ahead of check in time, the area is very clean & quite but refused to check in us early..though we understand as part of resorts policy. After 15min of waiting they let us check in early :) I like the pool bar cozy and quiet , I’m a pizza person and their pizza is to die for. They managed also our take away breakfast since our flight for the next day is so early.

Very nice resort. Clean. Even the beach was cleaned every day. Pool very clean. Restaurant with good food. Service excellent. Very nice to wake up every morning and just have a few steps to the ocean.

Our room is neat, staffs are attentive, they served breakfast promptly and food is delicious. Our room is a few steps away from the beach and sound of the sea is soothing and therapeutic. Requires more improvement on their free breakfast which was always processed meat. WiFi was a challenged, you need to be on the main area to capture the signal but maybe because Typhoon Odette rampaged Visayas. Overall, satisfactory place to re-energize!
