Chindonan Dive Resort is truly a gem for diving enthusiasts and those looking to unwind in a remote setting. The rooms are spacious and modern, and the staff creates a warm, family-like atmosphere. The dining experience is enjoyable, especially with good food at reasonable prices. However, the location is quite isolated, which can lead to higher costs for supplies, and the connectivity though improved, still varies. Overall, it's an excellent place focused on diving with a unique charm.

Chindonan Dive Resort is a unique place for diving enthusiasts with a strong focus on the WWII wrecks. The rooms are spacious with fantastic views, but could benefit from air conditioning upgrades.
