Highlights
Operating since 1998, MY Resolute is one of the longest-running liveaboard vessels in the Philippines. With a highly experienced crew on board, the boat visits Tubbataha from March to June. This UNESCO heritage site offers pristine dive conditions and shark sightings on almost every dive, with the chance of encountering white tip, grey reef, nurse, and hammerhead sharks. From July- to October, M/Y Resolute relocates to the island of Cebu for diving in the Visayas to see whale sharks, thresher sharks, and colorful critters. The ship then navigates to Apo Reef, offering the chance to dive with hammerheads, reef sharks, and other pelagic life.
Topside, the MY Resolute liveaboard caters to just 16 guests. There are 8 comfortable cabins available, each with individually controlled AC and en-suite bathrooms. Meals are served in the open-air dining room, and dinner is usually a five-course buffet consisting of 2 meat dishes, 1 seafood, soup, and vegetables. Special dietary requirements are catered to with advance notice. The ship's bow offers loungers and is a great place to soak up the sun, and the indoor salon offers a cool area with an entertainment system and a camera room. The large dive deck is located at the back of the boat and offers ample space for kitting up and individual gear storage.

Amazing trip! Thank you so much
The boat is very well organized and the staff is extremly friendly and helpful. The food was amazing - i am vegetarian and the chef made separate dishes for me :O i did not expect this level of care (and so much delicious vegetarian food)! The guides were very knowledgable and they made sure we were save during strong currents - i felt very comfortable with them. Thank you Jonathan and Mark for showing us so many amazing dive spots! I was in the small cabine which had still it's own toilet and AC. The room was cleaned every day.

Amazing diving experience and great crew
It was a fantastic liveaboard experience. The crew were very helpful and always made sure we were safe and comfortable. The dive sites were beautiful with lots of marine life, and everything was well organized. I really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere on board and would definitely recommend this trip to others.

A great week
We had a great week cruising. The seabed is exceptional, and the crew is very attentive throughout the stay. Small downside for the quality of the Resolute boat: it is an old boat and many things were non-functional: broken room door, shower problem, leaking air conditioning.. It is true that at the price of the cruise we slightly expected a better service! Same for the loaned equipment: the wetsuits are in bad condition with holes, fortunately the water is hot!!But apart from all that, an incredible experience that I recommend to any diver passing through the Philippines, even more so to coral and shark lovers! enjoy

Incredible experience
The food we had was great and you never felt hungry because there was always amazing food. The crew was so helpful and attentive. The dive masters were very skilled and safe. They were great at pointing out rare species. The dives and itinerary was lovely. I saw things I didn’t even know existed. I recommend this liveaboard to everyone.

Good boat, Good vibes, Good dives
Tubbataha did not disappoint. The reefs lived up to every bit of their reputation, and the diving was simply spectacular. From the sheer walls to the abundance of marine life, every dive felt like a gift. The crew made the experience. Warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive, they went out of their way to make every guest feel cared for. Their hospitality reflected real pride in their work, and I am grateful for their service. One small note for fellow travelers: getting in and out of the top bunk takes a little patience and agility. Come prepared for that, and you will have nothing to complain about. Highly recommended.

A great time for all!
I absolutely loved this trip, Karla, Gilbert, Josh and the other staff were incredible. The dive briefings were always thorough and I always felt in good hands. The highlight for me was diving with the whalesharks - we were really lucky with this. Expect to see big schools of fish, reef sharks and lovely coral. The food was also amazing - thanks Chef! The rooms are on the smaller side, but each have AC and an ensuite. Drinks are on the pricier side - so if you like wine - BYO! Overall, this was a fantastic trip, massive thanks to Karla and Gilbert!
