Malapascua Island has an impressive reputation for such a small location. Tucked away on the northern most point of Cebu itself, the endless white beaches and lush tropical groves of Malapascua are only a short 30 minute boat ride from Maya jetty, which itself is about 3 1/2 hours from the international airport. Step ashore and forget your everyday stresses and strains. Take in the crystal turquoise waters that surround the Exotic resort and relax into a slower pace of life. With everything you could ever need on site, your every whim is catered for. So splash in and see for yourself why divers come back year after year to the Exotic Resort.

The Exotic Resort is small and has not lost any of its charm as it has grown to provide an increasingly high standard and service. There are only 29 rooms on site, ranging from the simple standard rooms with private bathroom and balcony to the stunning super deluxe suites that can sleep up to 4 people in 2 rooms. Don't miss out on the spa which offers every kind of massage treatment. And the restaurant serves a mouth watering selection of dishes, lovingly prepared by the excellent chefs. Exotic Resort also boasts wifi internet and 24 hour power supply - both of which are hard to find on Malapascua!

The dive centre is a 5 star PADI facility that has been recognised for the outstanding levels of service and teaching they provide. Keen conservationists, they are also the proud recipients of an environmental achievement award from the Philippines government. Teaching all levels of diver - from day introductions to instructor courses - the dive team are experienced and passionate about sharing the beauty of Malapascua. Dive on the house reef or further afield from the comfort of any of their 5 boats, including the only speed boat in the region!

The diving in Malapascua is most famous for its thresher sharks. With their wealth of experience, the Exotic Resort has an exceptional track record at getting the best sightings of these elusive and shy sharks. See them even breech! Hammerheads also school at Monad Shoal, alongside manta to come in to be cleaned. This is not all Malapascua has to offer though. The macro life is brilliant and blue ringed octopus, Mandarin fish and frog fish live amongst the soft coral gardens. You can even find sea snakes or flamboyant cuttle fish! Every day brings a new adventure at the Exotic Resort and with this winning team to hand, you are guaranteed a trip of a lifetime.
