Friendly owners and super friendly staff. Nice location by the sea, and about 10 mins walk into town. Sky, the dog was adorable. Scooter hire nearby to visit White Beach up the road. Diving with Sardine bomb was a great experience. Kiho, the dive instructor shared his photos and videos with us, which we really appreciated. Korean BBQ dinner was really good too.

I thought that breakfast was included but it wasn't. It didn't really matter but I had used breakfast in my search.

This was low season, so everything was pretty quiet. The staff was fabulous and there was confusion with the dates I booked but the owner was very understanding and accommodating. The owners also stepped in when my taxi was over an hour late and they found me a last minute alternate ride. They went above and beyond to help me with this!

The staff was very nice and helpful, they even repaired my pants after I ripped them. You also get a beautiful little beach infront of the resort, so you can enjoy breakfast with a beautiful view.

Genuine, generous and kind highly skilled hosts and diving instructors. My son gained his Open Water Diver with Kiho and Inhee. They were very capable instructors who took a great deal of care to make sure that our experience was safe and rewarding. They also supported me to renew my diving after many years away. I was quite uncertain, however with their encouragement and support I was able to dive with my son, something I am very grateful for. The staff at Shuim were all wonderful, they could not do enough for us. Plus, a beautiful quiet, private beach, away from the hustle and bustle of Moalboal, yet less than 10 minutes walk along the shore (at low tide), or the road, to the shops and restaurants. I cannot recommend Shuim Resort enough, for diving, or simply a really special place to stay.

The air conditioner in my room was a bit noisy. But knowing the owner can say that it will be fixed in short time.

Everything. Amazing place. Every detail charges with calmness and comfort. The owners are very friendly and nice people. The resort workers are always ready to drop everything and fulfill any of your prizes. The fact that the resort is far from the city does not bother at all. You can rent a scoter two hundred meters away. The prices are 2 times cheaper than in the capital. Kiho is a great instructor. He teaches not only diving but also careful attitude to the underwater world and equipment. In general, this place has exceeded my expectations many times over. I will definitely come back here.

had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly kind, always attentive, and truly went out of their way to make sure I was as comfortable as possible. You can really feel that they care about their guests. The location is great, right by the sea, with direct access to snorkeling. I even had the chance to swim with turtles just a few steps from the hotel, which was an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway.

Cozy and peaceful little resort a short walk from the main town. It is run by a lovely Korean couple who offer diving trips. Right by crystal clear waters where you can snorkel. Excellent Korean food!

The room is disappointing. Should have been designed better, it was suitable just for spending the nights.

The small sandy beach. The most amazing sunset. And watching sea turtles right below the resort.

I didn’t like that we had to leave the resort I wanted to live there after our stay haha

The resort was amazing and the dives were so fun. I felt safe and our instructor also made sure we had a great experience at all times. I would recommend this dive resort to anyone looking to enjoy the Philippines and dive!. It’s close by to everything and has a private beach that we even hung out and saw turtles.

- Location perfect! Close to the center and yet nice and quiet. Private beach section is a highlight - Rooms nice and large and simple but well equipped - top price-performance ratio - Best hosts and staff ever. So friendly and helpful. They made everything possible for us and never asked for anything in return. For example, we were allowed to stay longer in the room because our cab to the airport didn't arrive until 2pm.

We had an amazing time in the Shuim! It’s a bit further away from the center, but we actually liked this as it’s much more calm and quiet. You can walk or scooter easily to the center. We also did a few dives with them and this was super well organized. The Korean lunch afterwards was great too! You can go snorkeling from the resort too, we spotted turtles in their backyard :) Would come back!

This place is absolute heaven, and you just can’t miss the opportunity to stay there when in Moalboal: - Owners are the best - Location is peacefully amazing and just a 10-min walk from the best spots in Moalboal - You only need to swim 1min from the hotel beachfront to explore the wonderful marine life, turtles included - Amazing experience diving with the hotel crew - You should not miss the Korean dinner if you stay there Whether you’re a diver or not, this is an amazing place to stay.

Nothing. I wish I stayed longer, I felt sad when I left

I stayed at Shuim for 2 nights as I wanted to do a couple of dives in Moalboal. After booking this accommodation, the hosts took care of everything. The dives, my transfer, meals, everything was arranged. They were very fast when replying to my questions. Upon arrival I was amazed by how sweet they are. They arranged everything according to my wishes and schedule and they were flexible too when it came to the dives. These are definitely the sweetest persons I’ve met during my trip. The dives were amazing, I went with Irheen, she was so sweet, very professional and educated! They prepared a really nice lunch afterwards. In the afternoon you can easily chill at the premises and enjoy a beautiful and calm sunset. I’ve had a great time here!

Really lovely hosts who cooked us dinner one night and were extremely helpful and accommodating. Nice quiet location

Stayed in March 2025

Rooms had no safe, no kettle, no fridge Entry road flooded a bit when it rained so big puddles

Lovely friendly staff, good breakfast. Room decent, clean, comfortable bed, hot shower. Beautiful views out the front to the sea. Free snorkels / masks available to explore the sea right off the resort. Bit of a walk out of town but it’s nice to be in a quieter area

We maybe expected a bit more luxury in the room for the price but it was still great

It was right on the water with private beach access which was perfect for tanning and snorkeling. The owners were super friendly and helped us with our travels. Laundry was really cheap and fast.

Bring ear plugs as the cockerels are a bit noisy in the mornings 🤣.

Our hosts were fantastic. Imi and Key run this great resort. They are also 2 very experienced and knowledgeable dive instructors with over 5000 dives ! They have lots of local knowledge and even took complimentary photos and videos whilst I was diving ! The resort has its on beach and you can snorkel here. The food was excellent. Amazing Korean food which is some of the best we have eaten. The staff were friendly and helpful and nothing was too much for anyone.

Wonderful place to stay. Staff and owners really helpful, food excellent. Snorkelling was great off private beach area. Easy enough to walk to town but scooter rental really cheap and Loys bike hire was only 3 mins walk away. Would stay again.

The owners are Korean so on their food menu is just korean cuisine.

The resort was peaceful & quiet. We were greeted by the owner upon our arrival and the owner couple bid us goodbye when we left which was sweet of them.

Stayed in February 2025

the owners are sweet and welcoming. the place is quiet and peaceful. located close enough to the center to get there walking but far enough to enjoy the quiet and the sea front. they offer lunch and dinner but its a one option only korean dish. we had it 3 times and enjoyed it. if you are a diver they organize dives in small groups only for hotel guests. they both are divemasters so you will be in good hands to discover the sardine run and other wonders.

In one line - we thought the reviews were too good to be true, but all they are all true. One of the best places we have ever stayed at and we can't wait to be back! We had an amazing time at Shuim Dive Resort. The owners and their staff are friendly and kind, and they made us feel like guests in their homes. They themselves have an amazing life story and they would gladly share that with you over dinner. We went swimming and snorkelling everyday (they provide all the equipment you'd need, for free) and spent a good amount of time just hanging out in the garden, having a beer, watching the ocean. The walk to the main street is super easy so we tried out a handful of restaurants, yet it is far enough that we sleep wonderfully every night in peace and quiet. And if you need tours or bikes, there is a provider right at the corner of the street. They had the most adorable dog and cats, and the owners are always around to make sure you have everything you need. We were even sad to leave at the end :(

Nothing, it's perfect.

This place is one of a kind. Only the most lucky and worthy people get to stay here. The owners are charming and view is breathtaking.
