The food at the hotel was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The tours offered by the hotel are overpriced and you are better going into town to sort out a tour yourself

This resort was amazing. The staff were all so nice and helpful. The food was very tasty. The resort itself was beautiful and peaceful. You are able to go snorkeling at the back of the resort and they provide you snorkeling gear and life jackets. We were able to see a turtle when we went snorkeling!

This was a great resort - clean, nice pool, the bar staff are lovely. There are free kayaks you can take out and check out the sea turtles and fish right out front. Not right in town, but we rented scooters and was a quick ride into town. Don't book scooters or tours directly through the hotel, they charge an extra fee on top.

Great pool, very comfy beds, nice staff, tasty breakfast and unlimited drinking water in environment friendly reusable water containers. About a 30 min walk to Panagsama Beach road with restaurants etc, or a tricycle/tuk tuk ride.

2 night stay with family, lovely pool, good food. Recommend the Massaman curry. Resort is a little remote, but we hired a motobike to look around.

The stay was great, the dive shop is also really good. The customer service is excellent, they really go out of their way to make your stay as good as possible and this is what gives it something unique. The only let down was the breakfast. Also their restaurant seems to have limited options from the menu etc so we never had lunch or dinner there.

This is a dive resort with an amazing house reef! Went to pescador island from this resort and snorkelling was better on the house reef. Take a tricycle into town. It’s worth visiting. Food was good and great spot for three nights

Great amenities, good service, quiet rooms, clean and safe. Good snorkeling right off the property. Reef is starting to deteriorate with hardly any large fish left. The drop off has some of the best snorkeling.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The place was beautiful and nice and staff are all friendly. However, its not easily accessible to go anywhere else since the resort is far away from the main road. It wouldve been nice if the resort would offer a free shuttle going even to the main road and back.
Verified review

A nice hotel on a spectacular reef. Unfortunately we were unable to dive due to illness but the snorkeling was just fine, over the course of 2 days we saw 5 turtles, a sea snake, lots of sea horses and many fish. The bed was just ok, and breakfast was average but sufficient. A short tricycle ride to town.

Nice mini oasis in a desolate part of Moalboal! Very quiet, clean, and private with knowledgeable staff. Food options are limited but the main area is a 5-10 minute drive or 30 minute walk. Awesome diving for turtles, sardines and bioluminescence.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay there because of the access to the coral reef right at the back of the property. We would spent hours snorkeling as the reef is amazing (when you get to the wall on the deeper side you can see plenty of turtles), and even did a discovery dive which was brilliant (a bit expensive though but it was with the hotel). The room was a bit dated but clean and comfortable. Cooked breakfast was lovely, and the restaurant had nice food. It's a bit further away from town so you always need to take a tricycle to do anything else than snorkeling (200 pesos for 2 one way).

The property was well taken care of and safe. The pool was really nice along with the beds in the room being very comfortable. Staff was helpful anytime. Would have given it a 5 star except 2 things; the wifi hardly worked in our room and the water was shut off in the mornings. I mentioned the wifi to the staff but there was nothing that could be done. I had to ask for the water to be turned on first thing in the mornings. Luckily the water pressure was good and worked well throughout the day and night. The cell sefice was akso good in the area so we didn't have a problem using our own service.

Maintenance in troble

We had to move one to aother room for some reason. A room with seaview was nice having terrace and all electronics were functioned but the other room near swimming pool has no terrace and TV connection was not seamless, airconditioner is uncontrollable. Windows were facing public so could not open them.
