The building and pool are great. If you have any dietary requires the food is terrible. The hotel intentionally makes it difficult to get taxis into town as they have their own hire car business. So you have a choice of paying exorbitant hire car prices or eating terrible food. If you look at all the other bad reviews they same the same thing. They need to get an international chef

Overall a quiet, secluded property with plenty of activities for the family. The food was generally good but it took over an hour to get our first meal, and every meal after that took more than 15 minutes. Free breakfast was nice. The service was not as friendly as in El Nido, but it was still polite and fine.

Staff at Plantation Resort were excellent. We were very well looked after during our recent 3 night stay. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a beach front room. After check in, we headed out for lunch to one of the many restaurants. When we returned to the room, we had a basket of drinks to fill our fridge and baked goods from the onsite bakery. Room was clean and facilities were excellent. My only criticism is the time for the arrival of food and the small portion sizes for the price. At all the restaurants, it seemed to take a long time (40-60min each time) from ordering. By that point, we were starving and were served very small portions of each dish. We started ordering a side of rice or something extra once we realised this. The resort is very self contained with not much close by for tourists so you will likely no need to leave until check out.

Great hotel with great facilities and excellent food options and restaurants. We also did the massages which were great. Loved the pools and the different activities around the resort. The only thing that kept me from giving this a 5 star review is the beds. They were quite uncomfortable and not very big for a family. Considering the price and the resort being 5 star resort they should be providing premium bedding

We stayed 3 nights in Plantation Bay, and I have to give a shout out to Ms. Glaze at the front desk! She explains everything clearly and with kindness. She was patient enough to answer all the questions and very polite. Give her a raise or acknowledge her professionalism and most of all, her way of letting us all feel very welcome. She's part of the reasons why I extended for another night and even booked additional room. Please award her or promote her! However, we did not like the attitude and demeanor of the guy that was assigned in paddle boarding. He was very arrogant and mean. He needs to undergo training and make sure that he makes the clients feel welcome. He was very rude and made our paddle boarding experience not so nice. He was just rude and mean. Teach the guy to be at least,friendly. Even my nephew refused to do paddle board one more time because he said, the guy is mean. We had it November 26th, figure the guy assigned that time & have him undergo serious training on how to deal with clients with respect.
