Visit was nice

Only stayed on night, I think we were the only ones there. Very nice resort, quiet and peaceful. Steps getting to and from bungalow to main office and parking lot are crazy steep, with lots of steps, no elevator. You bell boy is an actual bell boy and will respond when you ring the bell, while on duty, he clocked out at 8pm which was fine. But bell boy Carrie’s luggage up and down stairs for you. Try to limit the amount of luggage you bring

Very beautiful older resort. The property and beach are breathtaking. It is down a very steep hill so plan accordingly. A long hike up to the parking and taxi. Excellent food served at your room, at the bar or on the beach. Very romantic. Many tours available. And very inexpensive. I will definitely return for a longer visit.

Simply Amazing

We had Very nice stay. The entrance in a little rough. Was not prepared for so many steps up and down getting into the property. Do not remember it being listed in property information.. But once down into the property it was everything we had hoped for. Quiet, tropical, lots of exotic birds and so many beautiful plants. The Bungalow we stayed in was perfect size for 2 people, very romantic. The service is casual and relaxed but still attentive. Our Room Butler Jerlyn was amazing. So friendly and answered any questions we had. Overall we loved our stay. Thank you

The experience was atrocious with the exception of the fact they assign you a butler Mickey who tries to help you in Every way he can. Beside that all was atrocious! To begin with the bathroom facilities are in a separate little Hut you have to walk out of your room out into the public outside and then enter a room and that room was overrun with ants and I complained and they claimed that they sprayed it but I am sure they did not spray it or maybe they did but it still was overrun with ants everywhere. Disgusting. Also there is an owner and her name is Jane. I told her that I need a ride to the boat and I told her I had received an email from her hotel telling me it would cost me $150 Philippine pesos. She denied any such email had ever been sent to me. She called me a liar! And she came to me personally and she aggressively waved her hands at me in a threatening manner. I am going to be 80 years old on December 20th and this frightened me. She is a horrible human being and doesn't belong in business. Anyway I sent that email to her and I told her she needs to apologize to me because here is the email that she claimed never existed and she called me a liar and I proved I did receive such an email. Also to get to the beach you have to walk down many many concrete steps and to get back to your room you have to climb up many many steps. Also on the last night there was a wasp flying around in my room and I was terribly frightened I would never stay here again ened. Also

Romantic getaway

Normally we take a boat over to the island but due to the pandemic it was not available at this time. The boat trip makes the ambience even more special. That did not interfere with our trip, the service is impeccable, the ambience is really romantic it’s a sweet little place talked away on the island

I was very pleased with this resort. Quiet, relaxing. The food was really good. Everyone has a personal butler to serve you and they even act as a personal guide on activities. I have to say our butler was absolutely amazing. The rest of the staff was also great and very friendly. I’d go back in a heartbeat, but I’d request the same butler. She made the vacation better.

A lot of trouble getting there for little return

Be prepared to leave your car in town somewhere because they have no parking and you have to hire scooter boys to take u there with near no bags Bumpy unsafe travel if u have kids or you don't want your lady falling off on the rocks and you have to pay them and the ferry maybe just taxi to the ferry. Beachfront does not mean on the beach there we paid the high price for beach front unit and we could not see the beach from our hut. It is a small beach as well the locals border all sides and if the tide is out so is swimming for 6 hours
