“Pura Vida” means “Pure Life” – And that’s precisely what you will experience during your stay at Pura Vida Dauin – ‘la Pura Vida’.

The spacious beach resort is located in the Municipality of Dauin, about 16 km south of Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental. The Swiss managed facility was built by divers for divers and opened its doors in December of 2004. Besides having a state of the art dive centre, the resort also offers other amenities and activities for the whole family to enjoy.

The goal was to keep the place as natural as possible and to use as many environmentally friendly resources as possible to give you that luxury feel combined with a closeness to nature. The resort has 31 rooms and can offer five different room categories which provides you with the opportunity to decide for yourself how much comfort/luxury you want to enjoy during your vacation. The resort and all the rooms are very spacious with a beautiful view of the ocean and garden. The property invites you for relaxing strolls in this tropical setting away from the busy and noisy daily routine.

The Sea Explorers 5* PADI Career Development Centre is conveniently located inside the resort and offers you all the amenities you need to make sure you and your equipment are safe. The swimming pool has been designed in a way where guests can enjoy a refreshing swim or dip in freshwater, but it is also suitable and built for Scuba Diving pool training sessions.

The proximity to Apo Island, one of the highlights for divers in the Visayas plus the outstanding macro diving close to the resort, makes diver’s dreams come true.
