I Would not recommend this Hotel, The amenities they advertise on their website are Not available. No Phone, Internet or TV service is available. Yet, you are required to pay full price for not having these services. I ask to speak to management for three days, but the staff just told me the manager is not on the island and no assistant manager is available either. DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTLEL, no English is also spoken, Food and rooms are horrible.

We stayed in multiple locations in Palau and in my opinion Sea Passion was the best! You can’t beat the location or the view and the service was outstanding. A mid range hotel that exceeded expectations with clean modern rooms, a small beach and pool. Hiring a kayak is a must, and so is sunset at the Beach Bar. Fish n Fins tours are right there and it’s super close to other tour operators. Highly recommended.

First off the hotel is in my opinion situated in one of the best locations in Palau. Beautiful lagoon/beach access, just outside of the main area in Koror. Close enough to everything you need but isolated enough to feel private and secluded. The room you get will make a difference in the overall feel you get. Since I wasn’t planning on leaving the hotel much I opted for one of the rooms with a deck and I totally loved the view. This is probably the closest you could get to a bungalow over the water without actually being in a bungalow over the water. They have their own little beach area, dock access, and small pool. The staff were very friendly and helpful and most rooms come with a continental-ish breakfast. Breakfast selection was limited but it did have omelets to order and some meats like ham and marinated pork so it was more than just a continental breakfast and more than I anticipated. [Update] the breakfasts kept getting better and better as the days went by. Definitely caters to more Asian tastes but still good. All that said there are things to be forewarned about. I had a really nice bathroom and bathtub but there was a bad smell coming from the drain(s?) which I endured the first night. The hotel maintenance and housekeeping worked on it but it wasn’t fully resolved. They, along with the front desk staff, were caring and responsive. It’s important to keep in mind that Palau is tropical so there were bugs in the room. Not a lot but enough to be noticeable.

The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was decent; good food but the same menu every day with only 1choice of fruit offered (oranges). The hotel was in a quiet location with a small beach area and walkable to a couple of good restaurants (The Barracuda and Elilai). My only complaint is the BEDBUGS. The hotel was notified and said they checked the beds. They responded by saying they didn’t find any in the room or adjacent rooms. Unfortunately, the bedbugs were there and I think it is prudent to leave this review. The money spent on our stay wasn’t worth the hassle.

Palau Hotel

The hotel was conveniently located with several restaurants in walking distance. The staff was helpful. Omelets were made to order at breakfast. However, there was very little fresh fruit, only orange slices everyday (we stayed here twice, before and after our drive boat trip). Kayaks were fun for $20/day with excellent areas to explore. Wi-Fi was good in the room but spotty in the lobby.

Good location, 4* hotel

Location is magnificent; close to mart about 100 meters away, restaurant is also close by. The hotel provide a security locker at reception but no safe box at room. The breakfast is very basic and may not suit vegetarian diets. Toilet paper is not good and shower head need to be changed to something bigger and wider (its like a telephone handset). Very weak Wi-Fi service in rooms and only available in guest lobbies. So no Wi-Fi is offered in the ground where you unusually wait or dine!!

Bad hotel pick for the Paradise Island

Great location, super snorkeling bay at their private beach, huge coral riff, even with an underwater aircraft wreck 👍 my two stars are going for the beach. But... Hotel is run by Chinese, and actually for Chinese only.... as a European tourist you don't feel welcomed. Chinese breakfast (except the egg station and toast...), for lunch and dinner there's only Chinese food, even the aircon remote control is in Chinese (good luck with setting your room's temp), tour desk as well (when I asked for help, I was referred to Google and Expedia, thanks). They are running at 30-40% occupancy due to the corona virus and other travel restrictions, but late check out was refused, not even an extension of an hour or two was possible. You would think they need guests, but obviously not. More con's: bar seems to be shut down now for a while, wifi is weak and only available in the lobby. Definitely not my choice when I return to Palau next time 😔
