Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Quo Vadis Dive Resort is often praised for its excellent snorkeling, with turtles and coral reefs easily accessible directly from the beach. The dive center is a major highlight for many, offering well-organized and professional diving experiences. Rooms are generally spacious, and many offer balconies with lovely sunset sea views; some guests, however, have noted that certain rooms facing the road can experience some noise. The resort is conveniently located within a short walk to the town center and near the famous sardine run, while the on-site seaview restaurant adds to the experience.

helpful staffcoral reefoutdated room

I was charmed by the diving center. They were great. my family finished their diving course because the staff helped us extend our stay. we even tried different rooms, and each one was spacious. snorkeling right from the hotel was amazing. I saw turtles and coral reefs.

The room i stayed in needed attention. It felt dark and outdated. the fridge and kettle looked rusty, so replacements are needed. overall, it's excellent for ocean activities, but the room amenities are basic.

Location

The hotel is waterfront with direct access to the water. I loved this feature. the house reef has teeming life, and i saw turtles on multiple occasions. the hotel offers private access. This.

Facilities

10/10

The dive shop was excellent, positive, skilled, and caring. I felt at home there. diving, especially at the sardine run and pescadero island, was amazing!!! the general manager, john, runs a seamless operation.

Rooms

8/10

The rooms are big. We had to move, so we tried different types, and all were great and spacious. the premier suite had a fantastic balcony. We used it for sunset views. the bed was comfy, and the shower had warm water.

Dining

9/10

The restaurant is on the cliff with a nice view over the sea. I loved the scenery there. there were a number of breakfast options. however, one day no bananas were available, and the next day there were no mangoes.
