Clean, Quiet, Very Friendly Staff, Excellent Pool, Very Good Restaurant, A Pleasure to Stay at Nordtropic and I look forward to coming back

This property is a hidden gem. The restaurant cooks amazing food at lunch and dinner (though the included breakfast was admittedly lackluster). The pool is perfect for kids - clean and shallow enough for our 5 and 8 year old to play safely while adults sat in lounge chairs shaded by umbrellas and a large tree. There was a very deep end too. And the private beach was clean with beautiful vistas and a sunset view. Beds were plush! (A rarity on our trip). Bathrooms and rooms are clean and simple- not the grandest, but perfectly adequate. Staff was incredibly accommodating and kind. Easily the best stay on our trip. We will return.

Small resort.. simple but comfortable Good breakfast and nice swimming pool. Sleeping room and bath room are standards but nice.. Good place to relax one night after long flight

The rooms are clean and comfortable. The staff is also accommodating and friendly 24 hours a day. The hotel is small so we could use the clean infinity pool almost exclusively. I would come back again.

This property in itself is a 4.5 to 5 star. The area around the property especially at the front gate is maybe a 2.5. So stay in the compound if you really want that good vibe and enjoy what the Beachfront has to offer

A nice small property. Everyone working there was very nice. Place was clean. Nothing else right around the resort. A 10 minute or so walk to the main street, or other larger resorts

For the most part everything was good, the only things that bothered me were that the pool and jacuzzi wasn’t as clean. The beach is a beach that definitely needs aquatic shoes and can’t go in barefoot, too dangerous. The Queen size bed felt more like a double wide twin bed also. At the service desk please let your customers who are staying with you know about the pricing for Taxi Black/White/Red Local Motor Open, if I had known the Black taxi was going to cost me 1100 PHP for one trip to SM Seaside I would have just opted for a white taxi and waited, wasn’t in a huge rush. I would have loved a water purification system in the hallway for the hotel so I can use that water to make coffee. I don’t think it’s safe leaving a faucet in the room that is unsafe unclean water, I was glad understood English to read the warning but others like French or European tourists in general as well as other Asian tourists who do not read English will get hurt.

Clean and spacious condo unit. We got complimentary upgrade to sea view. Staff and service was excellent. Pool and grounds were clean and not crowded. Location is gated and not really walkable. Great stay overall!

Resort had hostel feel and has awesome pool, private beach, and breakfast. Roght Outside the premises it can be a little sketchy, hence security and locked gates at night. Overall I enjoyed my 2 days here and would return if presented the opportunity.
