You know you have to write a review but you don’t want to share with others a paradise , well this was it. Blue star resort is amazing, We stayed almost 3 weeks.
It only has 10 accommodation units, which makes you feel really private and pampered,.
The staff are fantastic every single one of them, nothing is too much trouble, they are friendly and caring and make you feel so welcome.
The room we had no 1 was fabulous roomy and airy with a great view and nice and quiet, with aircon which we hardly used as we had two sets of french windows open with a lovely sea breeze.
The food is freshly cooked and delicious with plenty to choose from, Wednesday night is pizza night we ordered one each they were huge, the following week we had one between us.
The staff at the dive centre again are wonderful, we couldn’t dive this time but we snorkelled every day, and if someone was diving they let us join them so we could snorkel different sites.
We met the owners whilst we were there and again a lovely couple who care and look after their staff, which reflects on how happy the staff were.
The local town of Anda is a short tuk tuk tide away they have a market day which is great, there are cave pools and beaches close by.
The resort will arrange a tour of the island at a reasonable cost which we thoroughly enjoyed.
We cannot wait for the time we can travel freely again to return.

We stayed in this hotel for three nights in March. We felt like the hotel was ok, not blowing us away and needed some TLC to bring it up to the standard expected form the rates it charges for rooms.

Pros
Lovely pool area and sun loungers to relax
Decent sized pool table by the restaurant
Incredible sea views throughout the resort
Staff on the whole very friendly and helpful amid the corona virus panic!
Pizza night and live music on Wednesday was very good fun
Easy access to the sea - although very steep!
Breakfast which was included in our rate was cooked to order and very good indeed! Decent scrambled eggs are hard to find in the Philippines!

Cons
The shower offered up literally a dribble of water. It was the least powerful of all hotels in three months of travelling around Asia.
The entire bathroom unit looked very dated and in need of a deep clean / upgrade.
Room furniture looked like something out of the 80s
Food and drink in the restaurant pretty high for the local area
No restaurants bars or shops within walking distance of the resort - more a reflection in Anda as a place as still up and coming
No fan and air con too noisy / causes the room to be too hot or cold in the night time
Roosters nearby which make a racket of noise form 4am
Sea was very rough - not sure if this was just bad luck or if that’s typical of the area. It’s a shame as we went here for the snorkelling!

As the title show there is false advertising on the room description. As this is a room with a price tag of 67USD it should not be a cabin somewhere near the ocean. Actually, it is. The walls of this oceanview bungalow are made of local bamboo construction, with the exception of the front wall and the bathroom. Sounds delightful but in reality it is not. For starters the sounds inside the room is the same as outside the room. The temperature in the Philippines is not low but the room temperature is the same as outside, kind of. So, if you are looking for an outdoor experience with a full size roof this is the place. BTW, I am writing this review at 4am, because nobody can sleep as it is raining and the sound inside is the same as outside and I am actually sitting outside as it is cooler here than inside with a fan that is 3m (9ft) away from the bed. Oh, the large bed is two twins put together, so if you want to cosi up next to your hubby, not so nice.
