This resort are all goods...they can fetch you if you don't have a transportation vehicle. They use there Van or "lantsa" to to take you with your baggage. The batlers or waiters are so friendly they make smile every time when you faced or encountered. This resort is best recommended for group members or people because they can handled it all, due to big room, table and sorroundings.

Awesome place. Wonderful food, clean quiet and friendly. If you don't love the Philippines go to Hof and let Kristine look after you- she is a beautiful friendly lovely woman. I read reviews on Hof before I booked and I can't understand why people complain about trivial stuff. The whole experience there was excellent-only downside is that it 's a bit of a trek to get to.

Nice view and their room was very clean and relaxing. Maganda ang kanilang tanawin pati na ang kanilang dagat, at tsaka ang pool na napaka malinis at mga tao ay mababait. Nabibihani ako sa kanilang paligid sa subrang ganda at ang linis, maraming mga puno at subrang fresh ang hangin.

We really enjoyed our stay. Very friendly staff, good food, nice beach. The staff will really go the extra mile to make your stay pleasant. The neighbor resort started a karaoke at full blast, I didn't even have to say anything, the butler already told me that they called the owner and it will be solved shortly. Maybe the nr.1 resort at Samal. Thank you!! We really enjoyed our stay. Very friendly staff, good food, nice beach. The staff will really go the extra mile to make your stay pleasant.

The location, resort and rooms are amazing. The staff are also super nice, helpful and amazing. I really thank them for looking after me so well. The beach area is nice and relaxing. The food is very nice, but VERY expensive. Drinks + water are also VERY expensive. There is a strong culture of 'no outside food/drinks' and pressure from the 'butlers' to order your next meal... The resort was very empty. Seems the business model is to extract as much money from the few guests they have. There are also caged animals (monkey, snake) that could probably do with being released or put down for their own sanity. My "average'' review is based on the cost and the remote nature of the resort. Its far from anywhere on Samal...

This place is 10 Stars for me. And Im a travel agent who has visited very many places. IT is off the busy roads = calm. You will get your personal "caretaker" who will even accopany you on Tours = special Thanks to Lang Lang! You can Order an afford able Massage. The beach is small, but much better than many beach es in Cebu/Mactan/Lapu-Lapu! IT was my 2nd time I felt in heavon (after a place in Mexico), but so much better! I dont know what Else to say. Its over wealming. Too good to be true!!! Sadly I only stayed 4 nights. Its soooo romantic! Thanks to the german-Filipina owner too!

I would actually rate this 3.5 out of 5, so "good" but I think it only fair to explain the why. The resort itself is a little run down but the owner is making efforts to improve the situation. The standout facilities are without a doubt the swimming pool, the hillside accommodation and the staff. There are even better rooms if you want to stay closer to the beach. We found the location a bit remote, which would be fine if you have your own transport but it is problematic if you have to rely on tricycles or the facility's minibus. We found the presence of chained up and locked up creatures a bit bothersome. Hornbills, peacocks, Minah, parakeets, monkey, python and dogs. Some dogs and cats and chickens had free reign but really imprisoned animals in this day and age is disappointing to find. The food was a bit variable, some meals were superb, others a bit mediocre. It was disappointing to find the fruit options a bit limiting (pineapple, mango and melon) where was the papaya the pomelo and bananas? It was disappointing that fresh whole fish or local oysters, prawns etc was off the cards too. The staff are very friendly but they have a limited repertoire of things that they can and cannot do and many of the amenities like poolside bar, a functioning bar at the beach, all were non existent. Staff it seems had to traipse all the way to and from some control area in order to prepare or collect anything. There was a bit too much detritus on the property too, with some buildings in a deteriorating state and quite a lot of compostable stuff piled up in various corners - quite unsightly. The beach and jetty is a bit sub par. Bare metal spikes protrude from portions of the jetty and clutter of gearboxes or engines and boxes and cans are all over the place accompanied with some of the buildings visibly in need of new woodwork. It would be lovely to have a meal out here but that's just not practical. The beach is cluttered with boats and basically unswimmable because of this. The beach is also only semi private, neighboring pearl fishermen persistently tout their wares. Overall we stayed for several nights booking through Agoda and paying around £50 a night for accommodation with its own comfort room and shower which were detached from the sleeping area, we had pretty good sleep with a noisy a/c through the night and only waking at sunrise to the cacophony of the peacocks and the hornbill. Communication up until our arrival was good with most exchanges by email and Facebook messenger. Our steward/butler did his best - ArJan to accommodate our requests, though it seems making up the room was by his own words not part of his brief. Great views from our room, relatively low occupancy, meaning almost exclusive access to the pool and a sedentary time meant we were super chilled. Internet access was tricky, mobile data coverage is poor and though there is WiFi all over, it isn't particularly fast or reliable, accordingly manage your expectations. We've stayed in similar accommodation before and this is ok for the price but perhaps on the higher end for the region. Food could be better but as I said, the owner is working on upgrades all over the place, new steps and railings are in progress and the accommodation will no doubt get more attention as required. We would stay again but would need to see evidence of some improvements that would bring the property back to pre pandemic levels. If you're not too fussy you WILL have a good time.
