    Nothing we didn’t like, just things we would’ve liked improved such as the fridge having shelves, having a microwave, and fixing the toilet seat which was broken

    The view and proximity to the water and other islands was great. The room had a well functioning aircon and two fans that were very appreciated considering the heat. Was also happy about the sink with soap and sponge as we were about the plates, glasses and cutlery we had to our disposal that were very clean.

    The air conditioning was broken. We went in March and it was barely tolerable with the electric fans, so I can’t imagine how it would be in the summer. There wasn’t toilet paper so make sure to bring your own.

    The location was beautiful. It’s quite a bumpy tricycle ride to the property, through a local fishing village. We loved that we got to get a peek into local culture on the way. We had an amazing view of the sunrise right from the private island. We were told we could pay for grocery shopping and meals, but we didn’t try that. We bought our groceries and there was a small fridge to leave things in. Arranging the island tour was very simple with the help of our host.

    The road going to the resort as we had to walk through the residential area at the back to go to the restaurants. Had to pass a fish pond that stank but I guess that's the municipal council's job to sort out.

    Private beach. The room was okay but could do a lot better by adding simple touches.

    A lot of noice around from other guests and other hotels so was not very relaxing outside our chalet room!

    Remote location! Room was clean. A little expensive though! Staff were friendly and helpful! A lot of noice from around the beach front spoiled the afternoon relaxation!

    the lock in the room is damaged. I dont think the beach itself is good for swimming, makati ung water. the place is hard to find as we need to cross residential area and the road is very narrow. Ang daming animals while we are eating outside pero okay lng kasi mababait din kaya mageenjoy ka magpakain ng animals.

    I like that it is beach front. Complete facilities with wifi, free use of grilling equipment and gas stove. Rooms are clean. Staff are very nice. Picture perfect place! Pinapili pa kami ng rooms upon arrival kasi mukhang konti lang nagbook over the weekend sa kanila.

    the beach, the water from the beach when its already 4 pm in the afternoon there is no more water on the beach front, and its also rocky, but i understand because its not really a commercial space, there are still fishes and crabs that you can see on the beach front which is very good, my family enjoyed it

    the room size is very spacious, and it fits even 6 persons in a room

    The first room we booked was too small for 4 people. A bit noisy as the wall between other rooms are wood materials hence you can hear them talking loudly

    The staff are very accommodating and helpful. Attends to your needs immediately. We also upgraded the room on the second night.

    For the first night, we were in a room with no air conditioning, very small room and shower/toilet was 30 feet walk away. Also, there were people drinking and talking loudly right outside until past midnight. Very below expectations and not worth the price.

    Good location. Would be very hard to get to if you don't have a car or motorbike though. If you go here, make sure you don't get the tiny room that lacks air conditioning and lacks a private toilet.

    - too many animals live there, cats - dogs - turkeys - chickens… they all come to visit you for food, everyday, every breakfast- lunch and diner. - hide your food, don’t leave anything out of sight. There will be cats - dogs - chickens… stealing it. - you will find all litters around, on the floor every morning. Animals visit it every night and spread it around. - clearly they shouldn’t leave all of wanderers in, I spent my time fighting. - don’t expect to swim here, but the local white sand beach is few minutes away by walk. - no food be aware. There are some sari sari around , you can order food at some other resorts around.

    - private beach 🏖 - really cute place, I would say very “instagramming “ - quiet and peaceful, loved the hammock and lunch table on the private island 🏝 - staff was really nice and helpful - excellent place to visit 100 island and for kayaking (no deep water and no waves)

    - YMMV: my three friends slept well, but I was kept awake by the electric fan. This is a Philippines-wide problem, so unfair to judge the resort by it. Just be prepared. Likewise, make sure you have mosquito repellant.

    + Location, location, location. The view is amazing. There have clearly been investments in decorations, making parts highly instagrammable. It was distant enough so you're comfortably alone, yet close enough to society. Definitely possible for a weekend relaxing with friends + Close by to the Hundred Islands National Park, which was amazing + European-style toilet and shower + Very kind owners + They sell beer at acceptable prices, so you have don't have to go to town + Cute cats running around: the cats don't make noise at night

    The road to get to your resort was terrible. For almost a $100 per night, i was expecting so much more from your resort. You’re staff was wonderful, but the resort itself was not worth almost $100 per night.

    Your staff was super nice.
