I've lowered my expectations at first, upon reading the bad reviews about this place. But actually, I felt like it was quite the opposite of what my family and I have experienced during our 3D2N Holy Week stay
Pros:
-It's the perfect R&R place for people who want to stay away from noise, beach parties and too many crowd (even in fully-booked days)
-Staff are helpful, attentive and polite
-They also granted my request to have a room at the 1st floor since I'm with my senior parents and an infant. Call them (not email) days ahead of your stay, and they will address your request
-Most reviews say that their restaurant menus are expensive. IT IS, but considering the quality and the amount of servings they give, it's worth it with the right food!
- Our family enjoyed our breakfast buffets
- Pool was well-maintained during our stay
- Beach is good for snorkeling (lots of fish and underwater boulders to see)
For further improvement:
- I find their mandatory extra person/bed rate policy a bit pricey for P1980/P2200 per night. They have this 4pax per room policy, but they don't have an accommodation for 5pax. Maybe they can work on having rooms with 3 beds or a family room for 5?
As for the extra bed, it is comfortable
(I paid extra P4600 for 2N)
- No wifi on rooms. Wifi at the lobby is slow. Globe data is weak
- Rocky beach
- No hair dryers (but no big deal)
- My dad thinks that the resort could be better with more landscape gardens and hammocks
Overall, I think we'll comeback :)
