Another Philippines hotel good from far but far from good. Advertises with all these activities but yet they are not offered or run down, have a look at the “beach volleyball” for example. The grounds nearing the water look like an abandoned 90’s resort. There used to be a floating dock to a sandbar but they’ve allowed it to become damaged and just pushed up against the shore rather than neatly towed and docked out of site. The entire resort looks outdated and not at all maintained. Every plush cushion I looked at to sit on was stained in some way to some degree so I didn’t sit on anything but our bed. Would not recommend staying at this resort. Resort needs to do better at maintaining instead of adding a ridiculous amount of details/decor to an aging hotel.

A 3Star Resort for the price of 5star!

This resort is stuck in 90s. A bit run down and management seemed have no interest in renovating it. We stayed at the water villa for 4 nights paying high price during low season. We were family of 3 with a child. We had booked thru hotels.com and clearly mentioned we were 3 and need an additional bed for our child. However during the checkin the hotel charged us additional 50USD/night for the bed which we felt was unnecessary rip off. We felt the checkin staff were a bit stuck up. Not friendly. The operations was also very old styled. Paper invoice for everything! They even gave us coupons for beach tower that we were supposed to exchange to get the towel and get it back when we return the towel. Seriously?? Water villa was spacious. However please note that it is enjoyable only if you are comfortable with mangrove and seaweed smell. Watervilla is surrounded by water only during high tides. i.e., between 7am-3pm. Hotel boasts about its private sandbar. Please note that this is not private. It is a public sandbar and some boat companies operate to bring non-residents to this sandbar. The recreational area is a bit run down, but u can play some games. The pool bar is always deserted. On a good note, the Japanese restaurant is awesome. Good food, great views and very good service. However, please note that it is closed on Mondays. The Italian restaurant is also good, but the chef seemed to like garlic a lot. You need to give specific instructions to the chef.

The resort was not close to food options or exploring the city. Sometimes there was a trike available otherwise you would have to walk. That was the only downside, otherwise the resort was beautiful, staff were very friendly, and we had a great stay
