Pandan island offers just one 'resort' which is more or less like a big family stay. As other reviewers already mentioned it is indeed very basic, but excellent if you want to get away from it all. No big party but a tiny island for relaxing, playing games, enjoying a San Miguel or Kalamanzi juice at the bar, snorkeling just... More

We loved our stay at Pandan Island! The island is simply stunning. Accomodation is basic but has everything you need. Great for relaxing! Staff wa really really friendly! We made the Apo Dive Trip and that was the best dive xperience of our lives! If you are a diver: go on the trip!

We were only meant to stay for 3 nights but we extended it for a whole week. Pandan island isn't for everyone as there's no hot water shower (salt water shower and fresh water in buckets provided), accomodation is charming but very basic, you are isolated on an island (which we loved) and no power sockets in yiur room as...

Gorgeous island, with very basic but terrific amenities in south west of the Philippines. Run by a Swiss man and his Philippine wife and a great team of locals who never stop smiling. Excellent food, either caught or boated in fresh every day, this is one of the few places in the region where you get fresh baked bread every... More

Stunningly beautiful location and great proximity to amazing Apo reef but expensive for what you get. Diving is as expensive as you'll find in the Philippines - all kinds of add ons and gimicks that beef up the price real fast (boat fee, equiptment rental on a per dive basis, incredibly high conservation fee). As it is a private island,... More

Very simply but cleaned cottages, shower with cold salt water, doors without lock ;-) family atmosphere. But I have to write : I love asian food. And here... nothing interesting and expensive. Value (=taste) for money is low. Jednoduché ubytování v resortu s otevřenou rodinnou atmosférou, protože i chatky jsou po celou dobu pobytu otevřené ;-). Ale jídlo slabý a... More

Pandan Island beach resort is one of a kind. it's Unique cottages and very secluded private beach is fantastic because of their very limited guest, you can enjoy privacy and peace on our own. Most of the guest at this resort are french. Pandan Island is a way to go diving to APO Reef. If you are not into diving,... More

We had wanted to dive Apo Reef for two years since our arrival in Manila, unfortunately, the only great thing about this resort is Apo Reef and you don’t have to stay here to visit it. I would not recommend staying here as this is not at all what true Pilipino hospitality is like in the rest of the country.... More

Stayed here for 4 nights over a year ago. The island is nice and the environment good. The cottages are very basic with cold water showers, no windows etc and not the cleanest - only saw one or two cockroaches in the bathroom - not uncommon any place in SE Asia simple resorts. For enjoying the island it was okay... More

Just go for the day - we stayed in the supposedly best room and every time we went back into the rooms at least ten cockroaches scuttled out of our bags! and the bathroom was disgusting. the bedding was filfthy and had children's cartoons on them. the food was okay but you wouldn't choose it if you had a choice.
