  El lugar ideal

  Una estancia de 6 noches en uno de los mejores Spa y Resorts del mundo, debidamente avalado durante dos años consecutivos, no dejan espacio para dudas. Atmosphere Spa & Resorts es un sitio idílico y una magnífica oportunidad para comprobar en cuerpo y alma la excelencia y profesionalidad de un colectivo laboral y una instalación de la más alta calidad.

  Lovely Long Weekend

  Family fun weekend...Mom, Dad, children 10 and 8. Bubblemaker for the kiddos with Kirsty was a wonderful introduction to scuba diving! They loved it. Apo Island also a very nice snorkel trip, Aldi was a great guide. The grounds were lovely. The childrens pool area was perfect or a mixed age group. The views from all the pools and dining were just what you would expect from paradise. You will need booties or sturdy aqua shoes for playing in the surf. We also did the ATV mountain tour - fun way to see the country side. Wind at this time of year can make for white caps, but also provide a splendid breeze. Highly recommended for a relaxing weekend retreat! Thank you Atmosphere!

  Expensive and hidden extras

  I stayed at Atmosphere Resort (AR) based on feedback on Instagram and other social media platforms. Let me start out by first saying as always the local filipino workers were fantastic and friendly. Unfortunately they have a management that has an attitude of grab as much tourist money as you can. For eg. At breakfast they have a fantastic coffee machine. Ask for a straight coffee no problem. Ask for a Latte or Cappuccino that's extra sir. Happy hour is just that happy 1 hour. Local San Miguel is 180 pesos. (If you walk 15 mins down the road you can buy the large bottles of the same beer for 105 pesos and keep it in the fridge. I am a solo traveler so paid for that on my booking. I wanted to book a trip to see the Whale Sharks. Sorry you are a single so we have to charge you for 2. 17000 pesos about $400 for a 8 hour trip which was 3 hours spent in a car! I was there for 4 days and each night at the bar I heard similar stories of 'gouging'. A request for a taxi to take a family of 5 to Dumaguete was 2500 pesos ($50) The local bus stops out the front for 20 pesos per person. A 120gram 3oz steak for 1900 pesos($40). Local travel agents will not recommend this place due to the negativity from their additional pricing. I have spent 4 weeks travelling the Philippines and have stayed in 5 star locations and this would be middle of the road. Staying in 5 star places will mean additional charges but I have never had a 400% markup on local beer. Call it the Big Mac index of bars (apologies to the Economist) but it is a good example. Their gym is nonsense. Website has this open air gym where you can work out and commune with nature. It looks like a jungle gym from a kindergarten. The 2 weight bars they have are rusted out. I would hate to do any clean and jerks. The rest of the 'equipment'is a bunch of left over 1970s Rocky Balboa workout regime. No Cardio equipment, nothing for the 21st century workout needs. Oh and the Wifi is non existent unless you sit in the bar or the restaurant. I wonder why? Choose to stay but be prepared to keep putting your hand in your pocket.

  Dream place!

  We spent a long weekend in Atmosphere in February as a family with three small kids, and we had a great time! Our room was a Family Suite a large room with bedding for 4 people and an additional baby cot (no charge!). The room was beautiful with lounging areas, a spacious terrace and a massive TV, but the best was the bathroom! It was set partly outside with a small garden, and even a lounging chair. It was about the size of a regular hotel room and we loved having showers whilst listening to the chirping of the birds! We are not scuba divers but did a lot of snorkeling. The house reef is great and shallow enough for the kids to have a go. The snorkeling equipment is included in the room rate which is unusual. The rest of the time we played in the pools, on the lawns and ate. Food was so awesome with a lot of choice (two of us are vegetarians) and we found it very hard to stay away from the cakes and sweet desserts! We noticed that there were yoga classes going on but we didnt have the chance to try it, and we also didnt try the spa but next time well avail of the babysitting service and go crazy on activities. We will be back! Fam Bannink

  Good Food, but the portions?

  This review is for the Atmosphere Resorts restaurant. The setting in the treehouse was exceptional. The staff arranged a heart on the floor around the table made of flower petals and lit with candles. It made our special celebration really special. Overall the food was good, but the small portions were surprising and it made each dish more expensive than what was listed on the menu. The scallop appetizer was well prepared.... but only two scallops? The kinilaw was also very tasty, but also a very small portion . On to the entrees... The Nasi Goering was good, but the shrimp were very over cooked- super firm to the bite. This was the only dish that was generous.... maybe because it was mostly noodles. My Seafood Sampler was the most disappointing in regards to portion. The pan- fried grouper was delicious but, again, so small.... again, only two bites. The plate was really a child-size portion. The meal ended with some delicious chocolate mouse and vanilla chocolate mouse . I would like to return another time to sample other dishes on the menu.... because I think the food is really well prepared and above average, and would hope for larger portions next time.
