Their blue version of the long island iced tea is extra strong and quite a way to start a good night. They have a luxurious, relaxing, unpretentious vibe. You can enjoy the beach or snorkel right in front of the property and the dive shop can set you up for all your diving needs. A great place to be. read less

I did my PADI Open Water and my wife and kids enjoyed the pool and resort facilities. They also joined me for snorkeling while I was diving. My kids enjoyed seeing sea titles in a natural and thriving marine environment.

The staff were very professional and made sure I observed the important training during the PADI course. The dive sites were amazing so I’m glad I picked here to do my course.

Unfortunately the rooms were full when we booked so had to stay in a nearby resort. The rooms do look very nice though.

We ate often at liquid as the food was very good. A selection of international and local dishes, good sized portions (for a European) and very good quality.

We are already planning our next trip to dumaguete and will stay in liquid.
Thanks for the hospitality. More read less

When we arrived at the resort, the check in was quick and a welcome drink was there for us. The rooms are very well laid out and very clean. The staff was amazing and paid attention to every detail. Tom (the manager) kept us up to date with closures and issued that we may experience due to COVID-19. He met us several times each day to provide updates on airport closings and transportation issues. Tom was working with other resort owners to stay abreast of travel situations. On Tuesday, Tom informed us that the local resorts in cooperation with the Philippine Department of Tourism had arranged for us to go to Cebu via a Coast Guard ship and then eventually travel from Cebu to Manila to transfer home before all airports were closed. Tom was amazing in coordination to make sure all his guests made it to Cebu and eventually Manila. We cannot thank him enough. This resort is amazing. The landscaping and groundskeeping are top notch. Everything is so clean and well kept. The food was absolutely delicious. We went diving with them for two days and the dive crew were knowledgeable and attentive.

We were scheduled to stay seven nights at Liquid Dumaguete, but were limited to only three nights due to the virus impact. There is no doubt we will return and will be brining more friends with us. Our stay there was one of the best experiences we have ever had, even though it was cut short. Thanks Tom and the Liquid Dumaguete Crew!. See you soon! More read less

On the premises there are two clean swimming pools (a smaller one for divers to train and a bigger one with sunbeds and umbrellas for leisure), a bar, a restaurant and a small shop with some necessities and souvenirs. In addition to being five star PADI resort they are also an instructor development centre, which means there are a few instructors employed on a regular basis and many courses are organised. They also have two dive masters and a few more dive guides. Dive equipment they offer to rent is in good condition. Yet, be prepared to pay extra money if you want to have the same set within all your diving days. Most dives are from the boat and they own one. But whenever the boat is out of order (it happened twice while we were there), divers are taken by a jeepney to other divesites accessible from shore. As far as divesites are concerned, you can find both great muck dives and places to see some bigger staff (e.g. Apo Island). The room was quite spacious, well lit and air-conditioned, with a big bed, small fridge and a flat TV.

The room was quite spacious, well lit and air-conditioned, with a big bed, small fridge and a flat TV. However, I would be happy to exchange the TV (we didn’t switch it on even once) for a bigger wardrobe or other furniture to keep your clothes and other belongings.
Another inconvenience was lack of wi-fi in the room. The internet is available in the rooms which are close to the bar but in those more distant it doesn’t work and we had to go to the common areas to get access to the Net.
A little bit annoying was also not having any coffee/tea facilities in the room, hence having to go to the bar/restaurant to get it. We were also surprised that it wasn’t free of charge – apart for breakfast you have to pay for every cup of tea or coffee. Drinking water is for free although you have to buy a metal bottle first and then you can refill it without limits.
All the meals are a’la carte so you should come well in advance in the morning to have enough time to order and eat your breakfast and come in time for diving. They serve western and Filipino cuisine as well.
Since there are no shops or diners around, practically you spend all the time in the resort. The nearest eatery (with delicious and cheap local food) is 10-minute walk away but if you want to explore further, you can hire a motorbike at the resort.
All the staff – the dive and boat crew, the restaurant staff, the reception and housekeeping personnel, as well as managers and owners were friendly and willing to help. The manager even let us use his computer to help us buy our flight tickets and he recommended to us a dive resort in Sogod Bay, which proved to be worth it. Oh, and the massage was incredible! .
