Malapascua Beach & Dive Resort

This place was genuinely fantastic, when we went there to have dinner, the owner and chef, Nigel welcomed us in with a warm smile, he told us stories and spent a long time with us. The food is also amazing, I especially enjoyed the pizza, which had an extremely complex dough and the side dishes, which were also a great way to complement the pizza.

Our kids absolutely love this restaurant! We have tried many in Malapascua, but this one is without a shallow of a doubt, the best pizzeria. You would want to come back for more (we ate there 3 nights in a roll). My wife and I was walking one morning along the beach and was attracted to its old-fashioned brick oven. Standing next to brick oven is Nigel, the friendly Welsh chef-owner making pizza dough with passion. So we said, we should take the kids to try it for dinner. And we were not disappointed! The pizza are absolutely top notch, what can I say, it really makes you smile. Usually, one would comment on the sauce, the cheese, the freshness of ingredients, or in some rare case, the brick oven aroma infused into crusty dough. But here, we debated, and come to conclusion - it's love. You can taste the passion and perfection-seeking consistency in the pizza. We also tried other food including pasta, BBQ, tried chicken and prawns; all succulent. Nigel and his wife Janet (who is also one of the chef) are warm and friendly, making all the guests feel welcome. If you ever have a chance to come Diving at Malapascua (the Thresher shark experience is amazing), you will have to visit Nigel's shop and try their magical pizza.

The experiences formed in my short time in this resort is a testament to the hospitality of the resort, especially Nigel's pizza place. His presence alone radiates positive energy, with their pizzas being some of the best bites I've ever had.

Wir haben reserviert, sind angekommen, und haben nach Besichtigung der Anlage die Reservation storniert und den Penalty von 3400.- übernachtungsgebühr bezahlt. Die Anlage sieht wie eine Baustelle aus, Zimmer sind klein und schmuddelig, Pool ist wartungslos grün(???Gesundheitsrisiko???) im allgemeinen wirkt alles Lieblos und vernachlässigt. Lieber

I was on the island a week and ate here 4 times. I have no idea about the resort or the diving, only the restaurant Very good food, excellent service and the wood fired pizza oven was the best pizza on the island. (I ate here 4 times and had the pizza 3 times!) Nigel and Janet have been running the place for years and are very friendly and accommodating. Would recommend eating here on your trip to the island

No wi-fi connection in the rooms or free water or fridge or wardrobes. Breakfast costly swimming pool filthy no proper loungers no change of bedlinen unless requested the dining area was a mess would not advise staying here.
