Don't book Tambuli Seaside Resort. Don't stay here.
Pros:

There's no bed suitable for Family (4 people) Terrible small bed. You will not sleep well.
If you add extra bed, it's Php2500 per day, and it's not worthy at all. It seems nice hotel, but the bed will make noise sounds and put in the living room, a very wired place. Also, the front desk will not offer you a comforter. The whole hotel only have blanket. The front desk very slow working and unpolite. They knew you broken a coffee cup, they don't ask any if there're any kid get hurt? They ask you to pay and don't let you go, you need to sign, you need to pay cash.
There're planty of swimming pools, but the time limited is very wired.. if you check in at 15:00, the swimming pool is closed at 1600. Can you play? and it's not clean at all.

1. Very inconvenience place. no swimming pool at night, kids can not go anywhere.
any place you need to go out, need to call Grab. You cant walk out.
2. Front desk is very rude and working slowly. If they know you are rush, they are more slowly. Try to make you more angry. I swear.
3. Family don't come here, please.
3. The extra bed Php2500 per day and it's awful.
4. The rest of service man/lady are all very nice.

Air BnB Renters Beware
Pros:

The condo in tower C had a good view however could use some good, detailed cleaning. The location of the resort is an issue where you have to travel narrow one lane crowded roads. Most mall and tourist destinations are one to two hours away from the resort. If you want to enjoy the resort itself, it will cost you additional funds. The water activities are way overpriced and do not offer any professional video or photo services. The main pool, restaurants, bar and scheduled activities is an additional charge. The staff is very professional and trained very well to execute such policies to collect the additional revenue. Very little caring customer service.

Tambuli staff takes very good care of me
Pros:

Beautiful place, staff is friendly and helpful, accommodations are lovely, several pools to choose from, and right on the beach. But the highlight for me was coming to the breakfast cafe after my run in the morning. After the first morning Arian and crew had my same seat by a fan along with a juice shot ready. Oatmilk latte on its way. Perfect spot for my morning email check. This same restaurant serves the best lechon kawali I tasted my whole trip.

Thank you so much Tambuli and to the staff of Caverna restaurant
Pros:

Thank you so much to all the staff of Tambuli Resort and Spa specifically to the crew of Caverna Restaurant. 🥰 it's been a pleasure to be offered an excellent service by the staff. Special mention to Sir Junel for accommodating me and one of the reasons why I enjoyed my Solo birthday celebration here in Tambuli. ❤️ I never felt I'm alone in this celebration, thanks to the staff of Caverna. 🥰 Also to the cashier, Ms Alyssa, the servers and the manager. Thank you so much and I would really love to be back on my next birthday and on other days I'm free ❤️

Pros:

Hotel resort que tiene todos los servicios que necesitas, actividades de ocio, spa, etc. Además, es bonito y el desayuno es increíblemente bueno y muy completo. El personal es muy agradable.

Cons:

La playa estaba llena de basura y los toboganes de la piscina estaban fuera de servicio. Podrían poner mosquitera en las habitaciones para no tener que dormir con el aire acondicionado.
