Such an amazing surprise! The whole place has this incredibly restful feel, that quiet luxury you secretly desire, where everything feels effortless yet so thoughtful. The staff are the true STARS here. Their warmth and attentiveness blew us away… they even remembered how we take our coffee and had it waiting at breakfast, and one afternoon by the pool someone came round offering watermelon ice cream! The food was omg amazing! creative local dishes with a fusion twist, beautifully done and the drinks just as good. Free activities like kayaking and archery were such a fun bonus. Overall, we were blown away. A rare place that combines rest, fun, and impeccable service so perfectly. And to top it off, we left with the sweetest surprise… friendship bracelets on our departure! 💖

Gorgeous, immaculate property and pool in an idyllic setting. But it is the incredibly warm, smiling, welcoming, friendly and attentive staff that especially makes Funny Lion Puerto Princesa stand out. Every single member of their seemingly small army of staff who I interactacted with was kind, genuine and professional. The service and attention to detail at this hotell is unparalleled! Everything, no matter how big or small, from drinks to food is presented in beautiful and perfect fashion. We definitely did not want to leave and will be back again. My congratulations and compliments to GM Mike M. and the entire Funny Lion - PP staff! Thank you for everything!

Good place to stay in Bantayan! You walk out and just few steps there’s the ocean. No frills, just the million dollar view and kind staff! We were able to get 3 rooms for the family.

In the hotels I've stayed, this is definitely one of my favorites. The Funny Lion is a beautiful hotel with good amenities and a lot of complimentary items that make you feel appreciated as a customer. The staff was outstanding, especially Sir June who took excellent care of my party and me and made sure we had everything we needed. If you're looking for a nice place with friendly staff and peaceful surroundings, book now!

Staff here went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Could not walk past the staff without a friendly greeting, and a few words food options were good. Pool was clean. Private beach was an easy walk. You can also catch the sunrise in the morning, which was beautiful Room, good size clean and had everything I could want only downside they do not have an ATM on site and it is a little away from town to get to one lots of options to book to do different things. Unfortunately it was raining while I was there so I didn’t get to do much activities , overall five stars I would stay there again hands-down

This was probably the most amazing hotel we've ever stayed at! Service was beyond imagination and everything was very clean, neat, and thoughtfully done. Our flight got in at 7am and they still let us check in, and added a breakfast buffet for us to devour after our tiring journey. The food was perfect, the drinks perfect, and the rooms impeccable. The beds and showers were so comfy too. Also their bakery goods (cookies, brownies, coffees) were the best I've ever had. I looked up the place for El Nido as well, but they were fully booked. I'd give the place 6 stars if I could!
