Clean and comfortable rooms, great pool area, nice restaurant, good rates for scooter rental.

No issues, was wonderful!

Excellent restaurant with a big compliment to the chef. We literally ate all meals in the restaurant over 3 days, looking forward to try the many dishes proposed on the menu. It is a rare gem to find this high quality cuisine with soul in Philippines. Thank you chef.

The Aircon in our room does not cool very well. The staffs asked the technician to inspect it but the problem is more the size of the room is too big for the Aircon to cool down well.

The restaurant is good, the pool and the view are stunning. The dogs are super friendly

We we're here for only 2 nights. When we arrived we got the room "Halo", when we entered with the receptionist, we immediately adressed the foul odor in the room. It was an odor from a siphon or drain in the bathroom. They called a cleaning lady to spray air freshener everywhere to mask it, but they used so much it was irritating the eyes and lungs. After 2 hours of venting the room we went back and now there was a mix of the drain odor and overly present chemical smell of air freshener. So we changed rooms to the "Tuka" room next door in this bungalow. This one also had been over eagerly treated with the air freshener instead of trying to fix the root cause, the drainage system or siphon of the bathroom. We stayed at the pool to try and make this room vent a bit more. In the evening when trying to go to sleep at 9:00 pm the chemical smell was still overly present that I had a soap taste in my mouth. On top of that it was bad on my lungs (asthmatic patient and apnea patient with cpap-machine). So again I went to the reception, but it's like they don't understand basic plumbing issues and asked if we needed extra air freshener. They said that if I wanted another room I needed to pay extra because it was an upgrade. I told them I already payed for a room that shouldn't smell like that. In hindsight I should've just payed the extra and hope to be moved to another bungalow. Anyway we tried fixing the odor by closing the bathroom door and keeping the ventilation on so the bathroom wouldn't smell too hard and we asked not to use the "air freshener" anymore. After one day the "air freshener" odor in the bedroom was bearable again. At last, there are construction works going on next door (video can't be uploaded) this sound lasted a full day and on other days, partly. The dogs are amazing but one night they barked until 2 am at the entrance of the premises.
