2 very spacious bedrooms and big deck with refrigerator for outdoor living. Staff very helpful and friendly. Water machine at bar provided great hot and cold water. Excellent pools and restaurant. Walking distance to town centre. Driver of shuttle bus to town dropped us to the grocery store. Tour desk always available.
No in-room facilities like a kettle, but this was offset by being given a tray and cups to get hot water from the bar.

I like the setting , the quietness of it especially in the evening . The staff were amazing , the food was lovely though it would have been better if there's more choices in the breakfast menu.
A little bit far from the beach area.

The hotel was quiet and that’s what i like about it. It’s so relaxing and the pool was big. The service was very good, special thanks to ate Jane and Kuya Kennoo and the rest of the staff. The food is delicious, we preferred to eat at the hotel than outside. Highly recommended and good value for money.

Clean and spacious resort with a big swimming pool and breakfast included. The staff was very friendly and the caipirinha's were amazing! We loved our room with a private entrance.
At our room the shower pressure was very low. This was however not the case at some other rooms our friends stayed in, so it is not a general problem.

Wow. I researched to find the perfect place to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday and booked here for four nights. Firstly I told them it was her birthday and they had put balloons and a happy birthday signs on the bed. The smiles and helpfulness from the lovely staff made this stay even better. The swimming pool is a joy and the food was delicious. Location wise was perfect and there is a free shuttle bus into the town. The breakfast was lovely and the waiters were always friendly. Our room was big and had natural light coming through, the shower was warm. This is the best place to stay if you’re visiting Panglao and I’ve been travelling for 5 months and this is up there in the top three places I’ve stayed. It’s worth every penny at such a good price! So thank you so much I will and would highly recommend and advise anyone to stay here. We will return one day.

Beautiful hotel resort, in a quiet place not far from the restaurant area. The staff is very polite and helpful, the answer all my requests, they were so helpful with booking my taxi from and the airport, renting scooter, and even try to arrange the room allocation i liked. Breakfast are correct and quiet lot options choice. Windows in the room have good insulation, and so its quiet, and you don't need constantly the A/C even hot outside. room are large, shower are great, bed are huge and pillow good for your neck.

The staff here are some of the most friendly and helpful staff during our travels throughout the Philippines. They are genuinely lovely people. They even make you a little pack-up bag for breakfast if you go on an early tour! Speaking of tours, you can pay for tours at reception and both times resulted in us getting private tours for cheaper than the group tours were selling for online and in Alona. The drinks were nice and well priced. There's a really nice, chill vibe with the other guests sitting in the bar/pool area so it feels very calm. They organise very cheap trikes for you to get to the nearby town too!
Was too far to walk to the main area, so reliant on trikes or scooter rental. The rooms and pool are good but nothing amazing.

Staff were wonderful. Food was great. Pool was awesome. Massive room. Aircon was much appreciated! We hired a scooter from the hotel and it was powerful and in great condition! Location was good. A little away from the main touristy bit which we liked. We walked to / from the main beach area which was 20minutes ish and fine for us. . The hotel staff kindly arranged a tuktuk for us to travel on to loboc.
Coffee facilities would have been nice. The room needed a bit of TLC/ fixing up.
