Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms were clean, attractive, smartly deigned and well maintained. The staff were incredibly helpful, always cheerful. The place is lovely, and small enough to make you feel you're not in hotel. There's as a warm and cosy vibe, with the patio units wrapped around the pool and a beachfront bar. A second-floor restaurant serves a hearty breakfast and lunch. Lavanya is also open for dinner, though we found some more exotic dinner options just a short drive up the coast (notably the Beach Cafe and the upscale yet still very affordable Mahi Mahi dive resort.) As for the snorkelling & diving, we would go further afield to explore an epic coral landscape around the corner from the Beach Cafe. But there is a more modest yet wonderfully rich reef just off the beach in front of the resort.

Marielle and Kim were the two welcoming smiles that greeted us the moment we arrived at Lavanya, and from that point on, we knew we had found something special. We loved it so much that we extended our stay twice—it truly felt like a home away from home. The entire staff was wonderful, and I will genuinely miss them all. The interns, in particular, completely stole our hearts, and the local kids are an absolute treasure. Being so far from home in the US and fully immersed in a different way of life was an unforgettable experience. The food was honestly incredible—fresh, delicious, and far beyond reasonably priced. Snorkeling right off the shore was easy and fun, adding to the magic of the place. Out of everywhere we stayed in the Philippines, Lavanya was our favorite. It’s more than just a place to stay—it’s a community, an experience, and a memory we’ll carry with us. We will absolutely be back—with our boys. 💙

Kim and the staff were very helpful. Probably the best beachfront of resorts in the area. Reasonable food costs and plenty of options. Prices are fair, and some very cheap.would recommend to anyone staying in Zamboanguita.

c'est une école de plongée pas plus

Wifi ne marche jamais ! pas de bar, restaurant hors de prix et médiocre, cours de plongée devant la chambre et piscine à l'usage des plongeurs, zone fumeurs sur la plage sans cendriers. Quelques transats sur la plage mais sales. Personnel bruyant à 6 h am. Attention au départ on vous réclame le règlement du petit déjeuner pourtant inclus !
