When I hear people mention Puerto Galera, only one thing comes to mind, EL GALLEON BEACH RESORT.... I have never felt so relaxed and at home in any of my beach resort destinations except EG... I will definitely go back there with my family again and bring some friends. EVERYONE that I’ve met in EG is friendly and warm... The... more

It featured outstanding food, the opportunity for four dives a day with exceptional guides and a ridgetop room that overlooked water in two directions. The chef, Julius Quimpo, met with us every couple days to review our requests and find out how everything was going. A newly scheduled "Indian night" served options to die for. Less than a hundred feet... more

Situated in Sabang, El Galleon Dive Resort is definitely one of the best dive resorts in the area - and there is certainly no shortage of 'resorts' on offer. The dive operation is very well run, had good equipment, storage and clean up areas and even a hot shower and clean towels. This resort was the only dive operation that... more

This was our 3rd trip to the Philippines (all for diving), and found a great package through our travel agent that included the transfers, room, food and 4 dives a day. This left us with nothing else to plan which was a wonderful experience in itself. Our trip started with being met by our driver who unfortunately had to wait... more

I had been warned of staying on Sabang because of the noise and crowds but didn’t really want to stay in an isolated resort where I am stuck with one restaurant. Eventually I decided in El Galleon and the reason... more

My family and a group of my friends selected El Galleon based on what we saw on their website. Upon arrival, we were amazed to find that, by chance, we selected the best hotel in the area. El Galleon has a wonderful staff and a great atmosphere for relaxation and enjoyment. We were all very happy and could not have... more

I went recently on vacation to the Philippines and wanted to choose a secluded, not touristy, and not too far place from Manila. I found El Galleon in a travel book and contacted them right away to price an accommodation and diving package. I was happy with the quick feedback and reasonable prices this place had to offer. The hotel... more

First, I have no professional reason to give this resort such high marks...I have no secondary gain, and was just a guest there. I work in CA as an Emergency Nurse who travels for my profession to US 4 and 5 star places twice a year and whenever I get the chance go on dive holidays. Their was a previous... more
