Day 1

Welcome to Costa Rica

Another great time was had by all. When a typhoon closed diving, a quick pivot was made to keep everyone entertained and engaged. Dive staff took extra care with the safety of all as the water had a bit of a surge and some interesting wavers. As always, the service was over the top with teh dive staff handling all the gear and cameras so you could walk hands free to the boats (with a one or two person escort if desired) to ensure our safety. Albert and his restaurant team made sure the food was fantastic and the service excellent, remembering the little things like how much ice you like in your water. Overall a great time and we appreciate it. Highly recommend this resort, even if you are not much scuba diving!

We had an amazing time and we were blown away by the Atlantis Resort staff. They went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Absolutely the best resort I’ve been to. Great people, great food, great diving.

We had a great trip. Missed a day of diving due to a storm, but the resort staff and Dolphin Scuba found other opportunities to enjoy! Food was amazing, staff at Atlantis Dumaguete is 5 star.
