I really liked the Retreat. My room was really a large apartment. Spacious with full length windows on two sides overlooking the sea, gardens and swimming pool. Nice restaurant area with idiosyncratic Korean inspired food. At fist I thought the room was a little rustic but that was due to customs built furniture pointed dark brown. In fact the facilities were bang up to date - separate toilet, basin and shower areas modern TV and good broadband. The beach was not really suitable for sandcastles and baying but scenic.

I don’t see myself staying here ever again. This hotel just wasn’t my vibe. The day of my arrival, I requested private transportation for the following day, December 14, 2025 (my birthday) at 9am for a tour for me and my fiancé. I didn’t get a courtesy call to inform me that the transportation had arrived. It was around 9:15am when I called the front desk to check the status of my transportation and that’s when I was informed that transportation was already at the hotel waiting for us.

I was told that rooms are cleaned upon request. I requested our room to be cleaned after my fiancé and I left for our tour, but our room didn’t get cleaned till around 1:35pm after we had returned. I asked the front desk why our room wasn’t cleaned and he stated that they had to get rooms ready for new arrivals. When the front desk saw I was a bit frustrated, he immediately had someone to clean the room. Even when the cleaning crew that cleaned our room seemed to have a bit of an attitude. I asked for my room to be cleaned around 9:30am but it wasn’t cleaned until 1:35pm, and the new guests didn’t arrive sometimes around 5pm. It would have been nice to have returned to a clean room after a fun day of adventures.

The morning of December 15, 2025 around 7:30am, I asked for a room clean. After returning to our room, the cleaning crew had finished cleaning, but was casually sitting on the couch talking, which was awkward to say the least.

Hotel was good, staffs were all friendly and great hospitality. But they had to charge us breakfast even though booking was included \"made to order breakfast\". Expedia agents didnt fix the issue and hotel staff didnt consider the hotel description was free breakfast in Expedia. So I was kinda upset about that.

Pros:
The staff was super friendly and very helpful.
Breakfast was really good and with lots of variety.
The rooms were very spacious and had a big fridge and also a water station. TVs also had Netflix.
Food at the restaurant is delicious.

Cons:
You have to request the hotel to come clean the room, which they always do immediately, but doesn't happen by default.
We didn't like the bathroom: the faucet on both the shower and the sink are full of limescale and the toilet seat feels very cheap. There isn't liquid soap either.

The Hotel Retreat Siargao Resort is an excellent location for all the people who wanted to visit Siargao. Jason Ha and the wife Reni is an excellent host. They will provide you with a bottle of red wine and a 7 course dinner on your first day in Siargao. The location is about 30 minutes from cloud 9 and from the Corgi Isla. Thank you Jason & Reni and it is well appreciated.

Pool was very nice! Room and facilities very outdated. Food was terrible!! Ordered eggs Benedict and got poached egg on rock hard toast smothered in mayonnaise. Very overpriced for conditions of property. Didn’t even have bartender for mixed drinks… so shots only. Dining area was nice but food wasn’t edible.

I enjoyed everything about it especially the staff, they were nothing but nice and attentive. I think this place made me fall in love with Sairgao, it was away from all the tourist spots and the scooter rental was done on site! I miss it already. Shot out to Aya (and the front desk Gentleman)! Their kindness and service was amazing!

It Felt Like We Owned the Place!

We wanted a restful, quiet place to re-charge and we found the perfect place! Only 4 of 16 units were occupied and we saw the other vacationers only once! Even our gracious host and resort owner confirmed it himself - 'Pretend like you own the place' - he said! The lush gardens, the beach, the ocean, the pool, the spacious eating area/restaurant, and even the sunrise and sunset - they all seemed at our exclusive beck and call! Thank you to the owners and the staff at Retreat Siargao Resort for making our first trip to Siargao truly memorable. We will be back and take more friends along with us when we do!

Even though the property has its share of being ran down over the years, it was clean and comfortable enough, with nice pool and strong water pressure for showering. The staff were extremely nice and accommodating. The owners (Jason & wife) were courteous and friendly, as they introduced themselves and gave us a background on how their resort business started. Remember, you will not be in a five star hotel, but you should just make the best of it. I still recommend this place for adventurers.

Unfortunately, this will be my first and last stay with this resort. Stayed 3 nights, first time in Siargao. Was surprised with complimentary 10-course Korean food dinner on my first night. That was very nice. My room was ok. Bathroom needs to be upgraded. I was on the first floor which was a mistake, few insects and tiny ants, I think. Pool was nice and warm. But the beach is really not a beach. Didn't look safe to swim in it. Resort is quite far from the main area, General Luna, where the stores, shops and restaurants. Staff were all nice and accommodating.

8 nights stay at Retreat Siargao

We had an enjoyable experience here. The staff and owner were very friendly and professional. It is an excellent location, good view of the ocean from the suites windows and balcony/patios. The ocean is nice to swim in here. The pool is refreshing, clean, not much chemicals (if any).

The suites are clean, large, comfortable, well appointed and well maintained. In the suite is a large fridge, real ground (not instant) coffee & coffee maker, full size water cooler/dispenser, smart TV (with Netflix or whatever else), strong wifi, great air con (x2), comfy beds and linens.

The food in the restaurant (including breakfast each morning) was delicious, with large portions at a great price. The Korean food is so good, but also the international and Filipino offerings. The staff constantly gave us complementary dishes and side dishes; they made us feel like VIP guests every day.

We will stay here again, as it is perhaps the
Most well rounded, nicest place we have stayed in the Philippines. This place is better than most 5 star resorts, as they really care about the guests and do not nickel and dime guests.

We loved our stay at Retreat Siargao. Everyone was so welcoming from the moment we arrived to the moment we sadly had to depart. We left fully relaxed and revived. The pool is so welcoming and there are plenty of areas to settle in and enjoy the views around the property. Retreat Siargao will always be on our list of great places to stay when we are back in Siargao.

Schöne und abseits gelegene Anlage

Das Hotel liegt etwa 4-5 km außerhalb von General Luna und ist sehr ruhig. Man kann perfekt am Pool entspannen, braucht aber für alles andere ein Tuktuk. Das Essen ist eher hochpreisig, aber qualitativ gut. Der Pool ist sehr schön, aber nicht für kleine Kinder geeignet. Die Zimmer sind sehr groß mit einem Wohnbereich inklusive Sofa und TV mit Netflix.

Relaxing Escape at Retreat Siargao

We had a wonderful stay at Retreat Siargao! The room was spotless, spacious, and offered stunning views. The staff truly impressed us with their attentiveness and willingness to go above and beyond. The location was perfect for us - peaceful and quiet, yet just a short tuk-tuk ride from the lively town center.
