Restaurant at the Hotel MARINA DEL SOL (super hotel by the way); the products are very good, good cuisine and very kind and attentive staff. There are sometimes some supply difficulties and the service is a little slow, but we're on vacation! but frankly, it's probably one of the best restaurants we've had in the Philippines.

This is a nice restaurant with a amazing view over the bay, the food is really good and the drinks are nice!
You can also rent a Kayak and go around in the bay, there is a airplane wreck in the water you can go to.
The owner of this place is a nice guy and when we where on the airplane he made some cool drone footage of us!

This place is amazing! Super nice and clean rooms, amazing Restaurant, amazing people, management and service.
It's a little of from everything but easy to reach.
That makes the place peaceful and not to crowded.
Between the those beautiful little huts with palmleave rooftops, it has a little restaurant and bar, with amazing food and fair prices on their drinks!
You can rent bikes right there,
They help you to rent a motorbike for a day or help you to get on a boat for a trip.
Right next to the pool there is a diveshop where you can go to nice Wracks and amazing coral gardens (even for the Philippines)
Every one is super friendly and helpful and the Spanish couple managing this place for about a year now are doing an unique job!
For sailers there are moorings, anchor places, and even a gas station nearby and accessable from the water!

We arrived at 7:45 pm and told the receptionist we’d like to have dinner tonight at the restaurant. She asked us if we are staying there. I said no but maybe we have dinner anyways and she said we are full ma’am and I said we will wait so she called her manager and she hung up and I said what did he say, she said I have to call someone else cause he wasn’t working. She tried calling someone else to no avail so she said go on down. when we arrived at the restaurant, we spoke with the gal behind the bar. We said we’d like to have dinner she said what’s your room number we said we don’t have a room number we’re just here for dinner. She looked at us like a deer in the headlights. She looked pretty frazzled. she seated us and they were out of almost every seafood they had. She said they were very busy tonight. However, there was not that many people there we ordered Long Island iced teas, which came back tasting like Coca-Cola. No resemblance of a Long Island, and I brought a recipe for a Long Island to her and I said did you put all this stuff in it? she said yes ma’am I said you couldn’t of. she then informed me she is not a bartender. She is a receptionist. after that, I felt a lot of empathy for her and knew she was doing her best. Obviously, the manager who took a night off, needed to be there to take care of business, but he wasn’t. We ordered seafood noodles with shrimp and calamari. There was very tiny shrimp and about five rings of squid wasn’t very good. We left very unsatisfied. The place is beautiful. That’s all it has going for it.

A beautiful, very clean resort with view on the ocean. Lovely bar, very nice pool and you can rent kayaks to go to an airplane wreck in the water close by. Very quiet, good to relax a bit. Me and my friends really enjoyed our time there. Also the owner took pictures of us with his drone while we were at the airplane which he sent to us afterwards. The owner and the other staff is friendly. Nothing to complain about!

The restaurant is located at Marina del Sol Resort. About 35 kilometres from Coron town. There is a swimming pool next to the restaurant and you are allowed to use it if yo are having lunch there.
I had Tuna Tataki..... No words, you have to try it.
We stayed until sunset. All good, happy hour til 8pm. Cold beer, good staff, good stuff.

We went to Marina Del Sol for a wedding and we had an amazing experience.
The food was great, the service was fantastic and the people were warm and friendly.
The rooms are very clean and are equipped with an individually adjustable air conditioner.
Would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the area. We will definitely stay there again.

A very special place for holidays. The spanish couple who direct the resort is very attentive and organized excursions for us. The best restaurant of the island, no doubt about that. I’ll return if I have the opportunity
