Service Makes this the Best Resort in Bolinao

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Mar 21, 2022
I could not express enough of how pleased i am with the services that every Puerto del Sol individual do for the guests. They, especially the Front-Desk & Security, are well coordinated with each other and this makes me feel safe being inside the compound. I sensed that they aim for perfection by addressing the tiniest detail in and around the resort.

I would like to think that they even have already perfected the processes on operating a resort eg. guaranteeing efficiency on queue management at breakfast, checking-in and checking-out, booking for reservations, accurate accounting and tracking of your bills. Hungry or thirsty, no problem! They provide easy access for you where you can place your orders and this is paired with efficient delivery despite of how large the resort is. During these times of Pandemic (Qtr1-2022), I also see that they have seriously taken into consideration the "social distancing" concerns our world has to face today.

Food is also just delicious and priced at par with any restaurant in Bolinao, hence, PDS is already paradise - why go out to eat when you already have everything you need within! Daily breakfast (and we've stayed there for a total of 8 days on two different occasions) always have new offerings everyday, each one as good as the previous day. I give 5 stars for quality and taste in every plate of fruit, oriental to American and especially Filipino dishes.

I will leave it up to the others to feedback on the amenities. The pictures speak for themselves. I'm good with the cleanliness, landscaping, quality of rooms and sheets, etc. My two-cents, Puerto del Sol is the best resort in Bolinao in-terms of amenities.

And lastly, I celebrated my 50th birthday at PDS by choice. You see, I have had a good experience during my first stay there and decided this is where I'd like to celebrate my DAY. And by sheer chance, the Resort Manager learned about the birthday dinner event and he went out of his way to make it extra special : providing service by extending his team to set-up a long dinner table by the beach, offered us the catch of the day (fresh fish). Thank you, Sir Leo and Chef Jeff.

I will surely be back - and if you're looking for a time-out of the hustle and bustle of the city - this is definitely worth the trip.

    We stayed at Puerto del Sol in October 2019 for 5 days and it was great. The pandemic has changed this place. The outside appearance will catch your eye right away. The pools are clean, friendly staff, grounds are well maintained. Then you get in the room. The water isn't fit to use at all. Soap won't even bubble because the water is so salinated and loaded with minerals. The sign on the door says it was disinfected, but the taps are corroded to green, the mirrors and walls in the bathroom are streaked and spotty, and there was sand on the chair. Bugs in the room because there was no screen for the bathroom window, and the AC unit was not sealed around the edges leaving visible gaps for bug access.

    Wifi is inaccessible in the rooms...only in common areas. No wash cloths available in the towel sets. Hair dryer only upon request. Coffee was instant, but only the metal pot was in the room, and we had to ask for a heater for that. We actually had our own coffee maker, a simple drip style, but they wanted to charge a ₱500 ($10) corkage fee to use it. We paid ₱4500 ($90) per night for 2 nights, and I can't make two cups of my own coffee that I brought from home? You're that hard up for money?? That meant we didn't spend more in the restaurant like we did before (as much as ₱2000 ($50) a day for food alone, not including tips for the room service runners.

    Speaking of the restaurant...it was fair. The teriyaki chicken, alimasag, and mozzarella sticks were good on our last dinner. The buffet breakfast was a different story. First day was a buffet...not bad, but glad they had omelets and pancakes made-to-order because the rest was typical Filipino fare...dried fish, overcooked eggs, rice, chicken hotdogs, longanisa, etc. Day 2 was a plated breakfast. The "American breakfast" was cold overcooked sunny side up eggs, sliced meat they call ham, a hot dog, and a greasy sponge of a hashbrown (McDonald's style). The pancakes, once again, were ok.

    So...if you want to pay upwards of ₱4500 for a view of the beach just so you can wow your friends on social media, this is your place. If you want to enjoy a "home away from home"...stay home or find another place in Bolinao. I'd personally rather have a place with a relaxing room, a terrace, and the piece of mind that comes with knowing you can bring a few personal items from home without being charged, and not have to use bottled water to brush my teeth because I tasted salt on my lips from the shower. The housekeeping staff needs a LOT of training.

    No sense here, waste of money. There is discrimination. I'm not a very rich person, but when I try to experience life somehow relaxed. So I chose to stay here, but while waiting in our room, my family and I were in the waiting area, then the guard approached us and said that more than 4 people were not allowed inside so my mom and dad came out to wait, it was hot outside but we followed because that was the protocol. But when a guest came from the vice president of the hotel, they all let five more people in, no guard came to let them out and enforce the protocol, be fair to your guest we also paid for our room how much is your rate , don't let people know that you have special treatment. poor management and worthless, you don't know how to smile at the guests, the vice president won't greet you even if you're both in the lobby, she won't look at you and greet you, she let you feel that she is rich and powerful.Here you can feel in this hotel that you are small and the power is only for the rich.

    Very bad experience.
    Thank they let me refund and cancel my booking.
    Never ever came back to this hotel.
    Treat your guest equal, attitude cant buy money.!
    In the end money is just a paper.
    Be nice to people around you.
    That will be you pass to enter in heaven gate.
    Goodluck

    The trip was very long from Baguio. We stayed for a night and we ended up paying almost twice as much because we were offered a room upgrade without knowing they were charging us for extra persons. There were 6 of us and we were told that the room was good for 8. I later found out that the room was only good for 4 and I had to pay for 2 extra persons. They could have at least disclosed that the room was only good for 4, capacity 8, and any additional person after the 4 persons would cost Php1,500 each. If there was anything good from this trip was the road trip itself.

    Great Vacation! 🥰🥰🥰

    We had a great experience as we stayed here with my friends.

    As we entered the property the staff are very accomodating and friendly. They implemented the health protocol which is vital.

    The foods are nutritious and have many varieties that we loved. The F & B personnel were very polite and served us well.

    We are very grateful for our wonderful experience relaxing with nature in Puerto Del Sol and their hospitable staff.

    We will surely come back with our family on our next visit.
