Luigina

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Incredibly attentive, kind staff with a very strict no tip policy. Our room was large, with a lovely balcony overlooking the lagoon. The food was good, but the best food is in the Rio restaurant overlooking the ocean. Our second night there, they had a themed meal and show by the staff which was really fun. We had a good chance to taste real Philippine cuisine, although the best chance is getting off the resort. The man-made lagoon is fun, as is the main pool, but the best part is the Spa which we indulged in four times during our eight day stay. Would go again!

Overall a quiet, secluded property with plenty of activities for the family. The food was generally good but it took over an hour to get our first meal, and every meal after that took more than 15 minutes. Free breakfast was nice. The service was not as friendly as in El Nido, but it was still polite and fine.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall its a large resort and there is a lot to do. Staff was very friedly and helpful in many ways. Dislikes: Food was ok but as good as I was expecting. Maybe typical for this kind of resort in Philippines. Breakfast often had some line (didnt't take long and was over new year's, but wish it wasnt that way). 1/2 day excursion by boat was a bit mis-leading because you dont actually go on shore, you just jump off the boat and swim in the water. It was still fun, but I had a different expectation.Takes time to get transport and drive to Mactan restaurants if you want to get out.

All the staff was respectful, helpful, and inviting as well as professional. Keith, Margarie, and Jose were absolutely amazing. They offered awesome service and made our stay extra memorable. the only down side for us (which is personal preference to be fair) was that the beds in our room weren't not comfortable and we lacked getting good sleep but overall I still give 5 stars and will be back again soon.

This hotel offers plenty of activities, so you can have fun without leaving the premises. The shuttle service to the airport and shopping spots is also convenient. Some facilities may be unavailable (under repair?) or require an additional fee, so it's best to check beforehand. There are rules during your stay, but it's very comfortable overall.
