Honestly the best staff I’ve ever encountered at a hotel. Very nice. Hung out with us all day lol as we were the only guests one day. Beach was perfect. Food was perfect. Literally no need to leave the hotel you have. A private beach and great food and drinks.

Room is old, no hot water, no hair dryer. No phone in room. Too many stairs. View is not bad but very inconvenient, had to climb up and down for swimming pool and canteen. No one to call when check out, we had to climb up to ask the receptionist to 'zipline' our luggages up. Big suitcases will have issues I guess...

Everything was great. The staff were very courteous and pleasant to be around. The only thing that was really hard to deal with was the 300 stairs that you have to endure getting in and out of the hotel. But once you get too your room in which every room has an ocean front view which is stunning.

The hotel must update what is being posted on the internet. They should specify what are anemities the included so that the customer wont expect too much from them. They should have toiletries and easy access to their internet. It won't reach every room since the area is elevated. They have posted about their jacuzzi, however it is not functioning when we get there.
Otherwise, They have very accommodating staff most especially their security. The view is truly a paradise. You can truly apply the adage of the great view comes after the hardest climb.😂😂 It's too steep yet very worth it.

This property is 288 stairs to check in. No elevator. Spa/pool was inoperable. A/c in the room was inoperable. No wifi. No cell service. And a 20 story stair climb to leave. Horrible hotel. Asked for help, was told no one could help me to contact Orbitz. Worst hotel I've ever seen in ALL PHILLIPINES!

I reported to the front desk twice that our shower was only spraying scolding hot water which made it impossible to take a shower and despite promises to fix it nothing happened.
The refrigerator in the room was barely working and should be replaced.

Pros:
Has a Greek feel to their design
The staff is great!
They set up my whale shark swim, plus made sure I was on one of the first boats!
Reasonable prices on bottles of water.
Relaxing sound of waves.
Relaxing music all night.

Cons:
Lots of steps involved
The pool wasn't very clean
The Tv signal is nonexistent

I enjoyed my stay here and the staff. The steps don't bother a mountain climber, and the view is beautiful! If I had a reason to return, I would.

You couldn’t leave the place for outside dinner because steps to go out of place to get taxi or take forever and there were at least 10 rungs of stairs to climb! You need to be in hiking shape to stay at this place! Hotel doesn’t take credit card for food so bring lots and lots of pesos with you

220 steps to your room.

My brother-in-law and we travelled together, and we have two separate reservations at this hotel last night.

First of all, there are 220 steps to our room from the lobby. And to check-in, we need to go 40 more steps to the reception. My brother-in-law has a bad knee, and he had to check-in to a different hotel. For me, I now have a sprained knee after all the ups and downs. Luggage had be zipped-line down to the room. I blame both Hotels.com and the Hotel for not letting us know about the steps. I demand the refund from either hotels.com and/or the hotel.

This is a one-star hotel. TV was broken, room was so dated, shower splashes water all over the bathroom, and there is no wi-fi.

This hotel is a real joke.

To be fair, staff tried everything to make your stay less miserable.

It’s beautiful view from the top, the beach is very clean, sandy with rocks. I love the 500 steep down because it’s hardcore cardio. This resort is not for old people, who have height issues and weak legs. But I love so much 🙏🙏🙏🙏

We are not aware of the 260 steps to take to go down and up in this properly. I have my 81 year old mother with me. None enough variety of food in the menu. We were booked for 6 nights 7 days, outside food or drinks were not allowed. Their beach are not good for swimming, too much rocks. The swimming pools does not look the same as on the website. It is a lot smaller and the jacuzzis are not functioning. Internet is very poor even in the lobby. No internet in the rooms as stated on the website. It was boring, no entertainment or anything.
The only nice thing about this place aside from the staff is the view from the top. It was amazing!!

Huge disappointment

Don't waste your money going there. Horrible place to stay. Way overpriced for what you get. Food and drinks very expensive. 5 star price for 1 star place. Aircon in room not working, so management and owners solution was to give us a fan. Lots of hidden charges. Jacuzzi not working. Found a dead rat in the Jacuzzi. Staff took out the dead rat and then proceeded to fill the Jacuzzi without emptying it first and sanitizing it before refill. Place is completely run down. Would NOT recommend it to anyone. Plenty of other cheaper and I'm sure nicer places to stay in Oslob.

Could be so great but it is not

We booked two beds and payed for it. They tried to put us in a room with one bed. I explained that I was with my brother and needed two beds. They tried to say I was getting an upgrade but the room matched the pictures online for the room I paid for. There is no WiFi service and they would not give me a light blanket or pillow . There is not a safe at all. Except for two staff members, the staff is not happy and is put out when you order food! The pool is so cloudy , we did not get in it! This place could be amazing- the views are so great and located ideally! Did not mind the stairs! Never heard of having to pay for a pillow

DO NOT STAY HERE. No where does it state that a climb of over 100+ stairs is required for you to get to the rooms. There is a lift, but it was out of service. Even if it wasnt, it is a flimsy contraption that does not look safe (think small metal cage hung over a ledge). Leveraged on the long climb in and out of the hotel by selling neccesities at exorbidant rates (40peso for 500ml of drinking water when norm is 15peso). No wifi. First notice in room says \"water supply in day is limited, expect water to be salty as drawn from deep well\". Toilet paper provided is 1 ply. Staff tried to hardsell their own taxi service by deliberately refusing to flag down punlic bus for you. Same tactic to hardsell scuba services instead of snorkling by refusing to help procure snorkling passes for whalesharks in a timely fashion. DO NOT STAY HERE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

We came with a large group of almost 15people needing several rooms. Beautiful location and view. Be warned of the many stairs, there is no elevator. The staff is over the top excellent and extremely helpful. When we checked out I asked for help with all our luggage. I said to the staff we have a lot of luggage he responded \"yes sir, theres a lot of us\". Thats when I knew they have a great staff at that hotel.
The room I had AC and it was nice and cold. The only thing I thought they need to update is their check-in system, its paper and pen which will cause confusion when reserving several rooms.

Terrible!

Terrible experience, the only positive thing is the view! We were ok with the steps as this had been mentioned on the booking site so we were aware of this. The staff were rude and we had to go looking for assistance from the onset, even eating at the restaurant they wouldn't even bother to walk down to the table to take our order we had to order before we sat down. No wifi. Television didn't work. Pool was filthy. Definitely wouldn't stay again.

Hotel needs attention

The hotel is in bad condition and cleanliness is below par. Although the location is great, the grounds and sorroundings can be bettered by cleaning. The room we stayed is ok, the food is ok too. If only the hotel management will concentrate on cleanliness of the grounds and sorroundings this hotel has loads of potentials. It doesnt help that the hotel is like a construction site and noisy.
In fairness, staffs are friendly and helpful although at times we feel that they can benefit from management and guidance.
I cannot recommend this hotel and if ever will come back in Oslob we would defintely use another hotel.

Lots of Stairs!

Our stay was just ok. There are about 265 stairs that lead down to the main area of the hotel and no elevator. We are in decent shape, but it took some work getting back up to the top. The hotel is currently under renovation as well (I hope they add an elevator). The room was comfortable and the place offers nice views. We had dinner at the restaurant one night and it was good. They make you sign an agreement not to bring outside food and beverages into the hotel. I didn't think that was appropriate. Overall, I would rate our stay as average. I would not stay again due to the stairs and the distance to all the activities in town. I would find a place in town instead.
