This was my third time visiting Puerto Galera but I brought a few first-timer friends with me. I usually book within the White Beach area but I'm glad I chose Tribal Hills this time:

1. Shuttle service is a big plus. We were picked up and dropped off from/to the ports. It is very convenient to go to the beach anytime (until 10pm).

2. Staffs are lovely and very helpful. They have attended to our every need. They have also helped us booking a ferry ticket home but unfortunately the trips are fully booked. But hey we still appreciated the effort. One of the drivers even gave us tips for alternative routes for going back home.

3. Breakfast was delicious! Most hotels offer free breakfast but falls short of the taste; just for the sake of saying they offer free breakfast. Tribal Hills is not one of them. We tried different sets every day and all of them were good! We haven't got a chance to have the other items on the menu, but if the free ones are good already, I'm sure the other ones are superb too. The restaurant has a stunning view of the beach/ocean.

4. Rooms are very spacious. We are pleasantly surprised when our room got upgraded with a balcony. Everything in the suite was spacious(even the bathroom). Air conditioning is adequate in cooling the 2-floored suite. The balcony gives you a wonderful mountain view.

5. We liked the location as it is minutes away from the White Beach but far enough from the noise of the bars at night. Perfect for relaxing after a day of beach activities.

We haven't tried the pool and the bar within the resort since we are short of time. Wished we could stay for a day or two more. We'll definitely be back!

Stayed in the Penthouse for 3 nights as a family. The rooms were very spacious with a stunning view. The rooms were adequately clean and another positive point was the shuttle service provided by the hotel. The majority of staff were hospitable, polite and friendly, the main complaint and the reason for the low rating is because we felt like we were being watched throughout the stay and upon leaving the hotel, the receptionist Shane even told us that they were watching us and they knew who was going in and out of the room, who was using the downstairs bathroom, who was wearing pyjamas at specific times, which I found to be very disturbing. Initially I booked a room for 4 adults and 2 children, but instead 5 adults went (the room can hold 6+ people) and in all of my years going to multiple hotels throughout the Philippines, there has never been additional charge for another person, even as the 2 children did not go. Regardless, I could sense her hostility and anger and paid the 2,400 pesos for the 3 nights, I'm disappointed in the way that Shane handled the situation, there are more polite ways of conversing with customers. The only other complaint would be the power-cuts, especially in the evening when it's pitch-black outside and you're in the middle of having a shower, that was not fun!

this is a very small but quite and nice resort, lovely pool and lovely people as well. room is basic but good enough varendah, ideal for few days to enjoy the white beach and surrounding areas. since road to sabang is absolutely disaster, this place is great is you are with your loved one. highly recommend . there were few dogs ,hope resort owner will keep them at his home rather than resort. while we love our dogs, I am not fan of dogs who are not familiar with
