Pros:

The air conditioning unit is not too effective. Also the stagnant water in the bathrooms need to be removed. It causes mold and mosquitoes. The breakfast is great and the staff are friendly and accommodating. The area in front is gorgeous and the patio is great.

Pros:

Coral Blue Oriental Beach Villas & Suites is a paradise getaway! We stayed in the Beach Suite with the beach view. It was a one night getaway for Valentine's Day 2024 and a surprise for my significant other and she was thoroughly pleased. The ambiance is very romantic for this particular suite. The staff was very friendly, the accommodation was clean and quiet and the location is walking distance to very good restaurant's, entertainment and 20 yards from the beach. Sitting on the balcony and listing to the waves crash was so relaxing. We enjoyed are stay and highly recommend Coral Blue Oriental Beach Villas & Suites. We will absolutely stay again!

Pros:

The location was amazing. Right on the beach and minutes away from MJ Market ( food stalls/ restaurants/ bars).

The room is as advertised, however some parts are outdated, such as the bathroom. Cleanliness was a 3/5, we had room service daily , although there were a lot of ants during our stay so we left with ant bites at the end.

The main reason for the poor rating is due to the staff. The service felt very impersonal. Out of all staff members we’ve only encountered 1 lady who was genuine ,but the rest seemed robotic, we felt like we weren’t welcomed. After our stay, nobody acknowledged us, other than “thanks for bringing the keys back”. We asked a couple of staff of any recommendations for places to eat and they said nothing? We thought it was the language barrier but they spoke well English..

Considering the price, this place was not worth it. Wouldn’t comeback.

Pros:

POSITIVE: Friendly and polite staff.
Watching sunrise in the balcony.

NEGATIVE: Bathroom needed to upgrade, closet is dusty and dirty.
All bills should be computerized and not hand-written on a notebooks to avoid over/under charges.

Pros:

Wonderful place to get away from it all. Bungalows made very comfortable right on the beach with an absolutely fabulous swimming beach nearby. The food here is good with lots of choices, but the service is rather slow. That was alright with us though because we were in no hurry, just crashing from the world outside. If you want to do things in tie , it is within just 5 minutes of the hotel with lots of restaurants and the convinces needs, but still very quaint.

Pros:

This is a taste of Paradise. The staff were amazing, the food was amazing, our room was amazing. We will come back here for sure one day.

Don't be put off by the amount of travel you have to go through to get here. It's a long bus ride and a ferry trip from Mactan/Cebu, but if you're looking for a laid back, slow paced place to recharge, this is it. If you're looking for high energy party vibes, go elsewhere.

Small intimate hotel with nice native room. Loved the balcony.
Breakfast was great.
Only negative is the dogs.
