Where To Stay In Anilao

[mlsantos]

Aiyanar Beach and Dive Resort is a good one a little more upscale than both CBR and Buceo

Got it. Thank you.

Well

We moved to Aiyanar as my wife wanted.
We did not ask for a refund for the booked accommodation and diving days, we only asked for transportation to Manila in accordance with the payment.
we think we treated Buceo 100% right, Boss also behaved great.

We cannot compare the quality of dives because we only dived with Aiyanar. I wrote that the dive sites are practically the same in each center.

Glad you enjoyed your stay at Aiyanar.

One of the biggest differences between the diving operations of aiyanar vs buceo makes a big difference specially for Photographers is that we have very small dive groups. It is not unusual to be just a buddy pair on the boat if that is what you wish. That way diving schedules are really up to the guests leisure. We do not set dive times for you, you set them with your assigned guide where as most ofther places you'd be assigned a group on a boat. Aiyanar is also the only dive shop to run speed boats making almost all of Anilao's Dive sites within 25mins from the resort.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts. Seems it is either Buceo or Crystal Blue. Nobody uses any of the other resorts?

depends... Id say crystal blue and buceo are about the same pricing and facilities wise... buceo has a pool that crystal blue does not.

If you want more upscale, Aiyanar Beach and Dive Resort and Solitude Accacia would be 2 other choices to look at.
