Who are we?

Amontillado Beach & Dive Resort is the ideal place for scuba diving, dive courses or a relaxing beach holiday with lots of sun and relaxation at affordable rates. Amontillado Beach & Dive Resort is set within its own private and secluded complex, and the resorts’ location was specifically chosen for its expansive 200 meter stretch of beautiful, golden sand beach frontage with commanding views of the world-famous dive sites of nearby Apo Island and the serene Siquijor Island.

Amontillado Beach & Dive Resort is located close to  Dauin, one of the few ecological towns in the Philippines, where you still find fresh air and peacefulness. Yet the resort is only a 20 minutes ride from Dumaguete, a busy university town on Oriental Negros.

Amontillado Beach & Dive Resort is one of the largest beach and dive resorts on the coast, due to its spacious 10.000 square meter private tropical garden. However, we only accommodate up to 30 guests and can therefore guarantee a warm and personal atmosphere that will make you enjoy an exclusive beach holiday with friendly service. These factors alone should positively make Amontillado Beach & Dive Resort the preferred choice for your next dive and beach holiday in paradise.

And even though we only opened in 2005, we have already had the pleasure of welcoming many guests who visited us for the second time; "MABUHAY"!

 

Our bungalows

All the rooms of Amontillado Beach & Dive Resort are designed according to western standards and fully furnished with beautiful ‘rattan’ furniture. The rooms include climate controlled air conditioning, a fully stocked refrigerated mini bar, private safe for your valuables and full en-suite shower facilities. Several rooms have the option to be extended with an additional room to accommodate 2 further guests. All rooms are serviced daily. Four beach front rooms are positioned directly on the beach and have fantastic sea views of both Apo Island and Siquijor Island. The remaining rooms are set back from the large pool with its picturesque water features and all have sea view from their private terrace.
 

 

Our Pool

Amontillado Beach & Dive Resort actually has two pools. The biggest pool has several depth levels and is easily accessible. The deep end of the pool is optimally designed for scuba diving courses. Wide sun beds with comfortable mattresses invite you to relax on the terraces beside the pool (large bathing towels are supplied at no charge).

The second pool is connected to our beautiful waterfall, where water is cascading down over several big boulders. Especially children enjoy this pool due to its shallow depth and adventurous rock formations. In the garden you will also find another small water basin with a beautiful waterfall which is high enough for a refreshing shower!
 

 

The Restaurant

The restaurant  is located directly on our golden sandy beach and was designed to be open and airy, allowing a constant and welcoming cooling breeze to pass through. Particularly during sunrise and sunset, views from the restaurant are stunning.

The restaurant offers a complete range of international and local cuisine. Amontillado Beach & Dive resort is already famous for its excellent cuisine and offers unrivalled value for money.

Interior Design

With the construction of the new lounge the Amontillado Beach & Dive resort successfully managed to combine contemporary design with classical Philippine style elements. The lounge is ideal to relax after an enjoyable dive or after a good diner. All furniture and pieces of art in the lounge and restaurant are designed and produced by well-known Philippine designers and artists.

A small library with English literature is available for house guests. We also have an extensive DVD library (unlimited use for 1 day: Pesos 100,-).
