Amazing place to stay with great view! The food was delicious and service impeccable. Best part was the top notch food presentation. You could tell the person who made it loves their job. Only thing I could suggest to improve would be lighting in the room. At night, even with all the lights on, was not enough while packing my luggage.

This place was absolutely stunning! Everything about it was perfect. The bungalows were all situated around pools and had a very zen feeling to them. The spa was very relaxing. The restaurant was clean, the food was really good and the staff was great. Although its in walking distance to the town square, they offer free tuktuk's to bring you there and pick you back up. The staff, even after we checked out, were truly kind and offered a private room for us to use while we waited 3 hours before heading to the airport to go back to Manila. This is the first place we have ever been to that was completely perfect! We thank Cadlao Resort for the experience.

Gorgeous property! Our seaside cottage was just perfect. Very beautiful view. The restaurant also had a lovely view and very good food. There is a free tuk-tuk service to take you into the little town. But it is only a 10 minute walk anyway. The pools were great and open til 11pm. The room was spacious and spotlessly clean. And the staff went above and beyond in every way. You would pay double or more for this hotel in many other countries. We were so happy with our choice to stay here.

Excellent resort. Beautiful surroundings and views, spotless and comfortable rooms, wonderful accommodating staff. Food was good in the restaurant and the servers are great! LOVED this place - pool was awesome. Great place to rest and relax. The location is great too, if you want to be a bit out of the main hub of town but close enough to walk there for shopping and eating.

Breakfast was very good — you order from the menu, choosing from a selection of Filipino rice‑based dishes or English options such as eggs or omelettes. You can then additionally take items from the continental buffet. Fruit was served on a plate, but it was only four small pieces rather than unlimited. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The only downside for us was the beach. We chose this hotel because it advertised “direct access to the beach”, but in reality it was a rocky shoreline with very shallow water — only about 70 cm deep — where you could immerse yourself but not actually swim.
