DIVELINK SERVICES AND FACILITIES

Dive Link Island Resort, Uson Island, Coron, Palawan, is jointly-owned by Noel Matta and Bobong Velez. It is the perfect jump-off point if you want to dive the World War II wrecks in Coron, Black Island, Popototan Island, the Bintuan Coral gardens and Coron’s little-known coves teeming with marine life. Dive Link will happily make arrangements for those who wish to go diving.


There are several types of cottages from single, one-room affairs to four-room cottage that can fit an entire family and some of their cousins.

Cottages are named after the fruit bearing trees that can be found on the property. There are 7 Bungalow Cottages, 4 Executive Garden Suites with 1 room and lounge, 1 large family cottage on the hill that has 3 rooms, and 5 room family cottage a top a hill on the western end of the Resort. All have air conditioning unit, hot and cold shower, and balconies overlooking the Coron waterways.

Minimalist in landscaping, the garden complements the coconut trees and fruit bearing trees, flowering shrubs lend a dash of color. All furniture in the cottages are of bamboo and were made on site.
 

The COCONUT GROVE RESTAURANT looks out into the bay and is framed by coconut trees. Sit and watch the dive boats and fishing vessels go by in the morning. At dusk, watch the birds come back to roost in the resort’s trees around the restaurant.

Dinner and all other meals are served in the large pavilion atop the Resort. Lunch is ala carte as most of the guests are away on some island adventure but breakfast and dinners are usually served buffet style. Dinner is a great time for socializing with other guests and the rest of the Matta family.

A swimming pool below the pavilion is designed with scuba diving in mind (www.divecal.com). Guests who are still learning the ropes can have their lessons or do some practice dives in the pool before setting out to open sea. On certain nights or whenever the guests wishes, dinner can be served by the pool. Relax at day’s end pool-side: enjoy a cool fresh coconut juice at WATER’S EDGE BAR. Jump into the refreshing water. Or catch the sunset from the end of the pier.

The FRANGIE PANIE WELLNESS SPA located just beside the pool offers Thai, Swedish and Shiatsu Massage. The spa also has a wide selection of aromatherapy oils that guests can choose from. Other services offered are hand, back, foot and whole body massages.

Dive Link Island Resort also has wireless internet access available for guests who cannot get away from their work or for those who simply want to check updates online for emails and news. An internet room with 2 personal computer units can be used upon availability.
