Stayed for 2 nights. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Went out of there way to help when asked. Room was probably 50% larger than I expected for this category hotel. Lots of space. Separate shower and separate toilet.
The pool was quite nice. Great place to relax.
Food prices where a good deal. Breakfast (included) was simple, but just in line with expectations. They had Cappachinno which was a great surprise (not included with BF, but very reasonable price).
A couple of small problems/suggestions:
1) The bedding consisted of a sheet and a rough winter blanket. Most places use a light cotton "comforter" which encloses a lightweight blanket and can be taken off and washed.
2) No maid service. Wasn't sure if this was on purpose or not, so I politely asked at checkout and was told that it was suppose to be daily. Got a nice apology. No big deal.
Will definetely return.

LOCATION
Paboreal is just 5-10 minutes away from the airport. So, when we arrived, we were able to rest right away and when it was time to leave, we did not have to worry about catching our return flight.
If you need to buy something elsewhere, you can ask the hotel staff to get a tricycle for you.
THE HOTEL
The hotel has a relaxed and quiet atmosphere so it's really a good escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.
THE ROOM
The family room looks exactly the way it does in pictures and was really big for 4 people!
We stayed at room #8 at the ground floor so we had easy access to the pool
THE POOL
We enjoyed the piano shaped pool because it was not crowded (It actually seemed like we owned it when we were there) and the water was warm and the night lights are cool
THE FOOD
We had limited options for breakfast but it was really delicious, was worth the price and was really filling.
THE SERVICE
From booking 'til checkout, the service was really exceptional. The Front Desk ladies (Beah, Faye, etc) have been very responsive to email inquiries, helped us book tours, gave us tips on how to save more, arranged our tricycle ride whenever we had to go out and even let us stay in the room until 4pm during our last day even if the standard checkout time is at 12nn. And when I sent the Boarding pass to the hotel's email for our return flight, I no longer had to instruct them to have it printed because it was already printed when I reached the Reception area.
Actually, I guess everyone in the hotel is focused on giving a genuinely excellent customer service. Perhaps because the owners themselves are customer-focused. The owners even personally dropped us off to Ka Lui when we had our dinner and even gave us free ice cream on our first day :)

After 200+ reviews and travelling on business every week, I have seen a lot of hotels. This new boutique hotel is up with the best. Spotless large room, queen bed, own porch, good shower, aircon and tv. Small but large enough pool, chairs, both in sun and in shade. Most helpful staff ever to organise tours, dinner or transport. They have their preferred driver, Ryan, great and very reliable. ok breakfast, we did not have other food. Situated 10 minutes from airport, outside the center, but only 50 peso (1€) away from the baywalk or good restaurants. Non smoking facility, free wifi, some days real good, some days not so good, but hey, this is the philippines. Dont look any further, book it!

I cant quite put into words how happy I was staying at Paboreal. The whole place is beautifully designed, full of tasteful, exciting details and kept incredibly clean. The room is very comfortable and clean and the pool is lovely.
The best thing about this place however is the owner Enrico and his wonderful, attentive and friendly staff. They made us feel completely at home and are some of the nicest people I have ever met. They seemed to care about us as though we were family. Despite the tropical cyclones they made our time in Puerto Princesa a real pleasure!
I recommend Paboreal as one of the top places I have ever stayed in and I hope to return someday soon.
