Pros:

Rooms could use a bit more cleaning, they only offered fries and pizza after 2pm, there were a lot of broken tiles in the pool (our companion even got a minor injury in the pool). Service & staff were great though.

so so.
Pros:

뷰가 좋음. 리조트 독채 같은 형식이라 호텔보다 편하고 좋음. 옷을 쉽게 널 수 있고, 테라스, 수영장과 거리가 짧아서 리조트에서 즐기기에 편함.
그러나 숙소에 개미가 너무 많음.. 벌레 물린 것 같이 뭐가 많이 나서 돌아옴..
서비스는 돈을 따로 내야하는것이 많고, 특히 아침식사밖에 제공이안됨(룸서비스 x)
거리는 매일 트라이써클을 타야하는데.. 차라리 알로나비치쪽으로 잡는것이..훨씬좋음

Pros:

조용하고 아늑하고 가성비최고네요. 아로나 비치에서 조금 떨어져 있는거 빼고는 최고입니다. 저는 오히려 조금 떨어져 있어서 트라이 시클 타고 마실 나가는 느낌도 좋았습니다.직원들도 상냥하고 잘쉬다 갑니다.

최고였어요
Pros:

보홀로 여행가신다면 정말로 추천하고싶은 리조트입니다. 아프다고 시내까지 안내해준 친절한 직원들, 병원을 일일이 찾아다니며 진료받을수있게 선생님을 찾아주고.. 서비스도 좋았고 사람들이 너무 착했어요.

Super Clean & Well Maintained
Pros:

We were so pleasantly surprised by this hotel. It's practically brand new & very carefully designed. The rooms are all spacious, with big balconies & separate sitting areas. Someone will clean your room every day. The staff was nice & helpful. The breakfast was yummy. It's super easy to get to Alona beach - just a quick trike ride away & the hotel will call one for you. For anybody worrying about being too far from the action, we were actually so grateful to be a small distance from the chaotic Alona beach area. Malinawon has great security too. The pool looks exactly as nice as the pictures show - sparkling clean, but quite shallow. Perhaps the only drawback for us was the loud music/karaoke/strobe light going on right behind the building. (At a local residence/farm.) However, we'd still be glad to return to this hotel. If you find a good price, take it, because eventually it seems like this place will raise it's prices.

Pros:

Pros: beautiful pool, personalized staff service, spacious room, fast internet, 3 minutes ride to Alona beach

Cons: for a new hotel some parts of the room are already broken, some trainee staff at breakfast not very efficient, close to local houses with noisy animals and smoke.

the cons are actually bearable. I would still come back

New but excellent hotel
Pros:

It was super surprise to visit this hotel. Newly opened but staff are well trained and very nice. Small enough hotel so that they can take care of us efficiently. Close to restaurant and beach area but it will make you stay around swimming pool area. You try Pina Colada , its excellent. I just became good friend of staff and owners baby boy too....
