Luxury resort, but budget friendly
Pros:

Firstly the staff that work there, credit to you all. From our arrival, you greeted us with friendly, warm smiles, were always on hand to help us, and attended all of our needs. We appreciate all of your very hard work, and you are a credit to the resort. They are lucky to have found hardworking staff like yourselves!

The room was spotless and very comfortable, the pool was spotless too, also cleaned by the hardworking gardener/maintenance worker.

The owners were also very friendly, and always at hand to help organise tours for us, and letting us sample their delicious homemade mango jam, and mango liqueur!! Definitely recommend guests to try the liqueur.

Location for us was perfect, it was a bit away from the main area around Alona beach, but that was a bonus, as you could do your activities, and then know you're coming back to the peace and tranquility of the resort!

It was one of the nicest accommodations we've booked, since arriving in the Philippines. Highly recommended.

Cons:

Everything was perfect

Super hôtel taille familiale au calme avec un personnel super pro
Pros:

Accueil chaleureux, gentillesse et disponibilité du personnel dans son ensemble. Tranquillité du lieu. On se sent très bien dans cet établissement bien managé. Nous avons dîné une fois et le dîner était très bon. Nous avons pris 3 petits déjeuner et ils étaient également très bon avec des supers fruits. La responsable nous a arrangé les 2 transferts sans souci et à l heure. On a pu louer un scooter sur place. Nous avons testé les massages et c était des pro. Bref je recommande cet hôtel à 100%

Cons:

Peut être la route d accès un peu compliqué pour les 300 mètres de chemin mais on s y fait et les taxis viennent jusqu’à la porte.

Fantastisk service, god mat och väldigt prisvärt.
Pros:

Trevligt ställe och fin service. Personalen, ägaren och maten är enastående. Trevlig trädgård med poolområde och utebar. Mysigt och intimt.

Cons:

Det enda var läget, vi saknade närhet till strand och restauranger. Hyrde moppe och åkte tuktuk och det funkade.

Perfect stay
Pros:

Stayed here for six nights and it was an awesome experience. The hotel is located in a chill area around 10 minutes away by tuktuk from the lively Alona Beach. Rooms are extremely clean and serviced daily, great Internet speed (one of the few hotels we stayed in Philippines that use Wi-Fi 6 routers). Even if it's a small hotel, they have a restaurant on site and offer breakfast, lunch and dinner. There are also good restaurant options in the vicinity.

What makes the difference though is the very friendly staff and the owners especially, who made us feel like family. They are huge dog lovers which tells you what you need to know about them 😁. They also helped with the transfer from Port and back, last minute car rental during high season, organizing island tours and scuba diving with reputable companies.

All in all, this hotel was the highlight of our Philippines trip and I would highly recommend it.

Cons:

I didn't like we had to leave. Everything was great.

Pros:

Tolle Gastgeberin und super freundliches, zuvorkommendes Personal. Wäscheservice gibt‘s auch. Modern eingerichtete Zimmer. Jeden Tag gibt‘s gratis 2 kleine Flaschen Wasser.

Cons:

Der Weg von der Hauptstraße zum Hotel (ca 200m) recht holprig bzw matschig.
Gym sehr rustikal, aber mit ein bisschen Kreativität kann man dort schon mal ein bisschen trainieren.
