Such an amazing surprise! The whole place has this incredibly restful feel, that quiet luxury you secretly desire, where everything feels effortless yet so thoughtful. The staff are the true STARS here. Their warmth and attentiveness blew us away… they even remembered how we take our coffee and had it waiting at breakfast, and one afternoon by the pool someone came round offering watermelon ice cream! The food was omg amazing! creative local dishes with a fusion twist, beautifully done and the drinks just as good. Free activities like kayaking and archery were such a fun bonus. Overall, we were blown away. A rare place that combines rest, fun, and impeccable service so perfectly. And to top it off, we left with the sweetest surprise… friendship bracelets on our departure! 💖

Gorgeous, immaculate property and pool in an idyllic setting. But it is the incredibly warm, smiling, welcoming, friendly and attentive staff that especially makes Funny Lion Puerto Princesa stand out. Every single member of their seemingly small army of staff who I interactacted with was kind, genuine and professional. The service and attention to detail at this hotell is unparalleled! Everything, no matter how big or small, from drinks to food is presented in beautiful and perfect fashion. We definitely did not want to leave and will be back again. My congratulations and compliments to GM Mike M. and the entire Funny Lion - PP staff! Thank you for everything!

Good place to say!

Good place to stay in Bantayan! You walk out and just few steps there’s the ocean. No frills, just the million dollar view and kind staff! We were able to get 3 rooms for the family.
