Everythinga was so nice! I love it, quiet area away from Alona Beach if you want to relax, has all the amenities you need, breakfast buffet is amazing! I love the french toast! The only very big downfall was the beach, the website advertises nice beach to swim but when we got there is was so crappy..no sand beach at all. The beach is so loud at 7am due to the diving and other water activities being offered. Too bad i didn’t enjoy quiet morning with my coffee like i did in bluewater maribago cebu. But the hotel still nice anyways, food was priced just right as well.

I paid total of $174 plus with the tax but told no breakfast was included on the booking . When I booked via expedia I chose with breakfast. It was disappointing because it only cost less than a hundred dollars if I booked directly to the hotel with breakfast already. That’s the only part I I may not book again with expedia, more expensive. The hotel facility I recommend.

Close to the airport/ 2 big sized pool

Resort is 10 minutes away from Panglao International Airport. Oversized pool is surrounded by the resort rooms and another nice sized pool close to the beach and restaurant pavilion. Good buffet breakfast selection. Beach is small. We saw an inflatable water obstacle course on the beach but due to time constraint, we were not able to explore it. Great hospitality from all the resort staff.

We loved the relaxing atmosphere and native decorations and feel. It wasn’t too far from the downtown Alona beach and yet it was set away so it wasn’t loud around us.

The grounds were nice and the staff were all exceptional. Breakfast buffet was delicious although I didn’t like the birds flying on all the silverware but what can you do if you’re an outdoor restaurant.

The beach was relaxing to sit at and look out at the water. Beautiful sunrises.

Nice hotel with private beach.

We booked 2 family rooms and the rooms themselves were wonderful. Up and down with spacious bathrooms. The issue we faced was that some of the linens in one room did not smell or feel clean at all. We contacted the lobby and they resolved the issue quickly, even though it was just past midnight when we contacted them. New sheets, no problem, good night's sleep. There are 2 pools, one by the lobby and one near the beach/breakfast area. Both are great. The pool by the lobby was just outside both our rooms and the kids loved it. Plenty of stuff to do around the property. Though they removed their ATV attraction, there is still some activities to do.

The moment you arrive, you're greeted by wonderful front office staff with cold beverage and cold towels to freshen you from your long travel. The room is wonderful and aminities are great! The location is perfect if you want to have a relaxing vacation away from other tourists and locals.. The place is very close to other local points of interest and public beach. No problem getting transportation, the Front Desk Staff can assist you with that. Its quite, clean, food is great, staff are very friendly and always there to assist you.

No beach, dated facilities

Amazing customer service and friendly, very helpful staff. However, there's no beach and the facilities are quite dated. Compared to Bohol Beach Club, this is not as good a deal. Upon walking into room, a dank smell hung in the air. The bathrooms smelled like sewage. Stains on furniture, old, cracked floors. Had to ask for extra pillow - the king bed had only two small pillows.

Nice hotel. Staff are very friendly and nice. Room is nice but beds are only a western double..bathroom shower and tub were great...especially with a baby. Pools are great. Beach is poor. 50 ft wide with white sand poured over top of rock. A couple cabanas. Breakfast was great. Food is very good and tasty. Prices were a tad expensive. Marriott type pricing. Only sad part was the hotel is empty. Maybe 10 other rooms booked? Otherwise would be nice if it was busy with other families and children.

Great for sloths!

Pricey and pretty luxurious. A five minute ride away from the happening bit of Panglao, so not ideal for my funky 20 year old. Two lovely pools. There is a short distance between the hotel/pool area and the beach/pool2/dining area, so you can't jump out the main pool into the sea. In fact, I'm not sure places that are great for diving are great for running into the sea at all. This had its own little private beach, but like the other places I went nearby, the beach is shallow and turns to corally sea grass after a few strides. Free snorkel, free little kayak - all useful additions. They were very kind when my daughter was ill. Good for lovey dovey couples, families with young children, and very lazy people with money.

Private and Visually Pleasing

This was a nice resort, though I'd expect more for a 4.5 star rated hotel. Staff is excellent and very hospitable. They offer a shuttle to Alona Beach which is an added convenience. The food is decent. It would be nice if transportation to and from the hotel was included in the price of the hotel. While they offer hotel amenities, due to the check-in time, it's not feasible for single overnight stays.

安靜的飯店

迎賓大廳沒有想像中豪華，比較樸實但很舒適，有好喝的迎賓飲料，工作人員都很親切，會主動微笑打招呼，嘟嘟車來會協助小孩上下車，還幫我們準備凌晨出門追海豚的外出早餐，飯店後方沙灘有自己專屬碼頭，所以可以直接出游進行海上活動，連住兩晚大廳泳池旁的家庭房空間大小剛好，有大浴缸給小孩玩水泡泡澡。另一個泳池後方沙灘，旁邊是用餐的餐廳，泳池隨時都有救生員待命，若沒人使用時，他們會一直清潔保持水池乾淨。唯一缺點就是房間一進去有一點點潮濕味，床鋪也有點濕濕的，若能改善品質會更好，會給顧客更物超所值的感覺，並推薦親友入住唷。到Alona Beach有一小段，需要飯店接駁或外叫嘟嘟車，單趟都是100披索唷!離熱鬧海攤一段距離，所以才會較安靜不被打擾。

나름 괜찮은 호텔

필리핀에서 제가 가장 걱정했던 것은 안전 문제였습니다. 아무래도 총기 소지국인만큼 걱정을 많이 하고 갔었는데요. 호텔 입구에 가드님들이 일일이 드나드는 사람들을 확인 하고 우리가 방을 비울때에는 다른 사람들이 기웃거리지 않는지 봐줍니다. 그리고 룸 컨디션은 좋은 편이나 개미는 있습니다.. 필리핀 특성상 어딜가도 개미나 작은 벌레종류가 있기는 합니다만 예민하신분들은 참고하세요. 그리고 샤워기 수압이약합니다. 문이 일반 대문처럼 되어있는게 아니라 큰 창문에 열쇠로 걸고 들어가는 식이라서 신경이 좀 쓰였습니다. 복층 구조라 가족끼리나 친구들 4명이상에서 가기 참 괜찮고요. 수영장이 두개라서 놀기도 좋습니다.
