    My friends and I are first-time, all girls travelers to Sipalay and one of our biggest requirement is safety. Artistic Diving Resort has a very safe, friendly vibe to it. Although the location is quite far and tricky from the main drop-off points of public transits - it is all worth it (plus they pay for your transpo from proper to the resort). The food is excellent and total worth the price. And the bar has the best drinks (kudos to the bartender)! We had fun. It was quick, easy and relaxing. I love it.

The food is also great and very affordable. The staff are all nice and approachable.

    The Artistic Dive Resort, Sipalay, Negros ”

    The ArtisticDive Resort was a great place to stay while visiting Sipalay, Negros. It was right on the beach & the on site restaurant was delightful for romantic dinner with sunset. The room was very nice with a large comfortable bed and hot water shower. I would recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

    Great restaurant, good diving and a nice garden with swimming pool.

    When we booked Artistic we decided we wanted something a bit more luxurious than our usual pick. And it really met our expectations. The food was great especially the home made Swiss bread. And also the staff was very friendly and helpful. Diving was professional and the reefs where beautiful. Furthermore I loved the swimming pool and the area around it.

    Idyllic stay in Sipalay”

    Excellent location with beautiful beach. Together with the pool, bar, and restaurant, you don’t really have to go anywhere else. If you want a relaxing stay, it’s the perfect place. The staff and owner are to be commended. They made my stay special and really me feel welcome. Make sure you try the kinilaw - it’s the best I’ve had yet! Their zopf bread is ace, too, and the raclette set is a must. At the bar, ask for a caipirinha (thanks, Eva, for the drinks!). There’s free WiFi in the restaurant/reception but you might want to bring a Globe SIM if you need constant internet as the connection slows down from time to time (probably due to the number of users). Will definitely stay here again when I visit Sipalay.
