I was thinking of staying here whilst visiting Sogod, and glad I didn't. I opted for Villa Catalina a few hundred metres away. I went to Syshore Beachfront Hotel to take a look. It is a terrible hole of a place. The security guard and other member of staff dossing at the entrance allowed me in. The swimming pool was green. It might be ok for tilapia but I wouldn't even put my toe in the putrid water. The outside restaurant is barren with a member of staff eating breakfast only. There were no guests to be seen and I could see why. This place is dark and dingey, grubby and uncared for.
How this place is a "tourist" resort I do not know.
I believe it is used for karaoke at night times. No doubt it looks better in the darkness.
If you are in Sogod, southern Leyte, do not stay here. Go to Villa Catalina instead. It may not be five star there, but the staff are fantastic, helpful, and friendly. I stayed for a number of nights.
Date of stay: March 2015
