We had a great three nights at Pura Vida. Beautiful property with perfectly manucured gardens and excellent accommodations. The buffet breakfast was lovely with a different theme everyday. The resort is a short walk to a marine sanctuary that had some of the best snorkeling we've done in the Philippines. Highly recommended this resort. Wonderful helpful staff as well.

Not a 4/5 star resort. This resort is fine, but has neither the facility nor the staff to be considered four or five stars. As such, it is overpriced. Pros: Location is beautiful and the grounds are well tended. The food, though extremely limited, is good. The staff are gracious. Cons: Meager breakfast options with no a la carte menu, limited dinner menu and you must order before 5p. No room service. No pool-side service. No 24hr service. Running water failed twice during my 3-day visit (zero water pressure to the entire facility). Pool towels not stocked or refreshed. Architecture is motel-style with public walkway and entrance outside of the window, so you have to choose between privacy and daylight. Older, dark decide and fixtures not meeting the high standards of a 4-star property.

Best weekend!!

I normally don’t write reviews but I think this resort deserve a praise. I booked this resort for my sister and her family for a weekend getaway. I was not present but made ffrequent contacts with my sister and all she has to stay was how clean the place, they have the best breakfast, and the staff were all friendly. The facility grounds and the pool were well kept they didn’t want to leave :) they wanted to extend another day :) ... if only I could afford. I definitely recommend this resort it’s one of the best in Dauin!
