We were in Tangkaan for three nights, and we decided to go with Padre Burgos Castle Resort on daily boat trips, to watch whalesharks - and we did it twice. David was excellent answering our questions before we arrived Tangkaan and was the only place that told us that was able to do a whaleshark watching trip with just two... More

We recently stayed at Padre Burgos Castle on our honeymoon. We were sadly on a tight time schedule and only managed to stay for 2 nights. We would have loved to come and relax for longer. We were made to feel really welcome from the moment we arrived. Delia cooked the most incredible food which she discussed with us each... More

Our whale watching trip was simply outstanding (2 guests supported by: 2 whale shark watchers on separate 'spotter' boats, The owner/manager, 1 maid on hand for food/ beverages, 1 conservation official, 2 boat crew and 1 US marine biologist (who was monitoring and identifying...

A mixed experience for us at Padre Burgos. The food was delicious, and of very high quality. We especially enjoyed some of Delia's own specialities and Philippino traditional dishes. Service was also excellent. All of the staff were very attentive, friendly and polite at all times. Our room was cleaned well, and the whole resort was always spotless and well... More

We have travelled to many countries over the years and stayed in quiet a few dumps. We moved to the Philippines a year ago, and we have learned that many of the hotels here lack the service and standard that we are familiar with. We booked our Easter vacation at Padres Burgos Castle Resort and admittedly..our expectations were quite low.... More

We stayed for one week at PBCR and enjoyed every minute. The diving with close-by Peter's dive resort was amazing (the drop-off and pick-up to and from the resort was organised for us) and thanks to the remoteness of Southern Leyte not very many other divers were around. Also at PBCR we felt like having the entire resort for us... More

We have spent for a wonderful 7 nights at the Padre Burgos Castle at the beginning of March and were more than pleased with our stay! The main purpose of our visit to Southern Leyte was diving. After traveling 4 weeks around several islands of the Philippines, we were looking for a place with a little more comfort than the... More

PBCR offers the epitome of island paradise. The remoteness of its location combined with superb accomodations and service oriented proprietors and staff made our vacation special. PBCR was able to accomodate our family of six at so short notice without compromising the quality of the service offered. David and Delia were very accomodating, they catered to the different needs of... More
